Now that DUer gateley has confirmed that the VP is Biden ...

[ColbertWatcher]

... who will the GOP counter with?

Who are the GOP war-mongering, war-profiteering, torturing, chickenhawk, lying cowards going to pick to hold up their vain, angry, leaderless ticket? And why?

(EDITED TO INCLUDE CONFIRMATION from fellow DUer)

[gateley]

1. It's on Obama's website, and the text messages have started to arrive --

some DUers have received them. So Biden is the VP -- no 'if'.

[ColbertWatcher]

2. Okay, okay, it's fixed. Thank you. n/t

3. Okay, NOW I'll respond. :-)

"Who are the GOP war-mongering, war-profiteering, torturing, chickenhawk, lying cowards going to pick to hold up their vain, angry, leaderless ticket? And why?"

They don't have a single soul that could help prop up McCain, except maybe Hagel (in the FP department), and that's not going to happen.

Can you think of anyone?

5. the GOPers I know in life

like Silver Shorts Romney or Huckleberry... I relish either being chosen! I have my design ideas already on the back burner... I'm hoping for Romney! He's such an arrogant man, whereas Huckleberry can be likable in the right situation, despite being a super bigot in his views, but, how I hope it's Romney, because I want to hear the Baptists and other fundamentalist believers collectively go, "OH SHIT - IT'S MITT!"

11. Silver Shorts Romney! LOL!

Is that safe for work? Should I not have done that?

6. Right now, I don't know, but ...

...deep down inside I fear they may pick 9iu11ani.

Second pick: Fuckabee.

7. Interesting -- Giuliani!

I heard a psychic a long time ago predict a McCain/Giuliani ticket. At the time, McCain was pretty much out of the running, so it seemed absurd.

Now that McCain's the nom, I wonder if she hit it about Giuliani, too.

On the other hand, she said the Dem ticket was going to be Clinton/Edwards.

I don't know who she was -- just heard her on the radio.

I think it would be better for us if they pick Giuliani. Huckabee scares me.

Either one -- Biden will chew him up and spit him out.

12. "Biden will chew him up and spit him out."

True that.

But, how will the GOP-controlled media spin this?

I want to be optimistic, but I don't want to let my guard down with these criminals still out and about.

I know Biden will run circles around anyone the GOP picks, but that doesn't mean a thing if they twist his words and lie to all their faithful in emails and on their radio networks.

We can fight the lies as long as we know what they are.

It will be interesting where the first poll puts them.

13. So you are telling me that CNN lied when they

said their John King had it confirmed by two sources. Why am I not surprised.

4. Romney is going to be McCain's VP pick...

It's time to dig up what Romney had to say about McCain during the primaries...

[endthewar]

15. It was a pretty nasty back-and-forth

Not as bad as between Hillary and Obama, but still pretty bad.

The Romney choice couldn't come at a worse time, though I still think he's the leading V.P. prospect for McCain. Romney has more money than McCain and a lot of homes too. The Republican ticket will be the rich people ticket.

9. A zombie

[ColbertWatcher]

10. Is Reagan in that ...

... Hey. What do you call a bunch of zombies?

A herd? A crowd?

[dems_rightnow]

14. I think McCain will pick Biden

Attempting to counter any possible bump on the VP picks.

16. LOL! Good one and welcome to DU! n/t
