I think McCain/Clinton ticket is a great idea. I’m a Republican who was going to vote for Hillary. And, this would be absolutely a great dream ticket as far as I am concerned.

I would vote for that ticket. In a minute.

They would both be ‘Mavericks’ then. People are sick of the status-quo. Women will turn out in full force for a McCain-Hillary ticket. Yes!

#39 HamiltonWallace said, “…they are both still part of the traditional Rep/Dem Cons/Lib school of politics.”. What he wrote was that the Republican party is considered conservative and Democratic party is considered Liberal. Two parties and the sectors of the political spectrum to which they are considered to reside. John C Dvorak’s response to Mr. Wallace “#39 the actual term is Neo-Liberal”. The same Mr. Dvorak who has been reading and writing his entire adult life. I understood Mr. Wallace to be saying that the choices being presented are still the same choices being represented to Americans since the Repulican and Democratic parties became the only two parties one could vote for. Perhaps Mr. Dvorak is too easily confused to be writing anything more than grocery lists.

#47, Ketchup,

C’mon Mr. K. That is insulting to all the other asswipes out there.

James Hill spewed, “There’s a oddly high number of crap responses in this thread.”

Did this thread get mentioned on a podcast? There’s a oddly high number of crap responses in this thread.

Did you mean “rein in Bill Clinton” ?

(Good luck with that…)

Jack Weinberg is credited with saying “Don’t trust anybody over 30″ and I’m relatively sure that goes double for Dvorak. Come think of it I can no longer trust myself. It’s Dvorak’s trade to stir the pot so hat’s off.

It’s safe to say that Hillary really wants the VP position if only to be able to use the “Hillicopter” again. There is an old adage that “Politics makes strange bedfellows” and with the history being made in the presidential race I’d say possible but not probable.

I would say that this is the dumbest idea I have ever read had it not gotten me to click on the link to this blog.

You win.

It’s sort of like when I was a kid and imagined there being an Alien v. Predator movie. Or a Freddy v. Jason flick. But studios weren’t THAT desperate. They still had SOME original ideas. Then a decade passed and look at what we got. Freddy v. Jason. Two Alien v. Predator movies.

Give it some time. This might one day become plausible.

#39 the actual term is Neo-Liberal

Interesting notion, but they are both still part of the traditional Rep/Dem Cons/Lib school of politics. Which hasn’t worked out so well lately. We’re still: at war; cutting taxes while we’re at war; talking about healthcare; and doing nothing to shore up the weakest economy in my adult life (I’m 55). Maybe we need a change?!
