11. 8 year time lapse?
Maybe you should get yourself checked out - but I suspect you are in the wrong place and from the wrong party.

2. Webb is out, and I think it's generally assumed Clark is too.
Other than that... :shrug:

22. Which is a shame because I think he needs a strong military background in his VP
to counter all the hero-worship bullshit the media is going to nauseate us with on Crash McLame. Personally, I think Obama blew it when he spoke out against Clark for telling the truth because Clark was the best choice.

14. Obama has said don't believe anything until he announces it.
No telling when that will be. He may be trying to outwait McCain.

5. According to what I've read on DU, Kaine, Schweitzer, and Sebilius
are the top three, but it will definitely be Biden, definitely be Kerry and will most likely be Edwards. Or Richardson.

18. I think he looks more like a Vulcan
I certainly hope you are not comparing him to the Ferengi personality

19. Looks, not personality.
Edited on Wed Jul-09-08 05:22 PM by TexasObserver
Thanks for the correct spelling. I knew that didn't look correct.

He probably does look more Vulcan.

12. If nominated, I will not run. If elected, I will not serve.
But, I'll let you know if I get the call.

23. Benedict Arnold - he wants to cave on FISA, too!
I hear he has Constitution-decorated toilet paper, also.

Not bad for a dead guy....
