Hillary and Wendy ticket in 2016?

[boston bean]

I think it would be great!

[tammywammy]

1. No, Wendy for governor.

We need strong democrats like Wendy, Kirk, Rodney, etc to help take this state back.

[boston bean]

3. Wendy on a national ticket just night help, no?

I'm just thinking.

[justabob]

36. yep would love to see her run for Gov nt

[cali]

2. no thanks. no hillary.

yes, if she's the nom, I'll support her, but just no.

[boston bean]

4. Your perogative. As is mine. nt

[Democracyinkind]

8. Seconded.

Though I have this eerie feeling that it's already been decided in the important places...

[bigwillq]

5. No to Hillary (nt)

[tridim]

6. No more Clintons please.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

27. Had enough of the Clintons. We need a fresh face.

[SamKnause]

7. Hillary ?

I don't.

Hillary is a warmonger, fearmonger and DC insider.

Do you really want more of the same ?

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

28. He'll no. Hillary is damaged goods after her disastrous stint as Sec of State

[HappyMe]

9. I think they need

Wendy in Texas. Taking her out of there won't do Texas any good.

I think we need to concentrate on 2014 first. It's super important that we gotv.

[maddezmom]

20. Agreed. I would rather see her run for Gov of TX!

[HappyMe]

23. Yes, that would be good.

I think that snatching good Dems out of the states where they are needed most does a disservice to those states.

[CTyankee]

10. My first reaction was "no, that'll never happen, two LIBERAL women? Nah..."

Then I thought of how ridiculous it would have sounded back in 2004, after Kerry's defeat, that a black man would be elected the next POTUS..."

[boston bean]

13. Yep. She's a state senator.. Who else was?

She gave a speech and thwarted a restrictive anti woman bill.. Who else gave a speech that helped him win?

[CTyankee]

18. good point!

It was excellent, btw, that Obama tweeted his approval...that doesn't hurt!

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

29. Hillary a liberal? Are you serious? Got a bridge I'd like to sell you

[CTyankee]

37. I realize that here many don't call Hillary a liberal but I was speaking in general.

[bike man]

11. People spoke out against a dynasty when it was the Bush name. A dynasty of *any* name

should be avoided, IMO.

[BainsBane]

12. state legislator to VP is not a typical career path

In fact I'm sure no one has done it. People work their way up.

[boston bean]

15. I think you need to think a little out of the box.

Who else was a state senator, and had less than two years in the senate before running for president?

[BainsBane]

16. with a stop in the US Senate along the way

[boston bean]

17. Yeah that brought him national, she is a national figure now as well. nt

[Little Star]

14. I would love to see that!

[RudynJack]

19. No.

It's silly to think a state legislator will be on a national ticket.

I would love to see her as the keynote speaker at the DNC in 2016, then run for higher office.

[kentauros]

21. Let's clone her first!

Then we can have

TX State Senator Wendy Davis
US Senator Wendy Davis
TX Representative Wendy Davis
US Representative Wendy Davis
Lt. Gov. Wendy Davis
Gov. Wendy Davis

[winter is coming]

22. Ugh. n/t

[dembotoz]

24. i hope wendy is in a safe district... the thugs will be after her big time

[Terra Alta]

25. Please, not Hillary.

I'll vote for her if she is the nominee but I'd rather not see that happen. As for Wendy Davis, I think she should run for Governor of Texas.

[treestar]

26. The latest hero who comes to light for President

Always the same on DU. Are there no other offices?

[boston bean]

30. I guess the same was probably said about Barack Obama

[Javaman]

31. No, I want her as my Governor.

she would do so much more good if she were Gov of Texas.

[maddezmom]

33. Same here

We need her in TX.

[Whisp]

32. No, not Hillitary.

Her tough talk yapping will surely bring trouble. ugh.

[Recursion]

34. What do you know about her voting record?

http://votesmart.org/candidate/key-votes/108093/wendy-davis#.Ucr6Fy3LbFg

Seems an interesting mix there...

[JW2020]

35. Honestly

Had you even heard of Wendy Davis before yesterday?

[IDemo]

38. What do people have against someone working in state or local government?

It's not always just functioning as an 'Idol' show to send contestants on to the next level. Dedicated and qualified people are needed at the local level as well as nationally.

[Beacool]

40. I think that she should run for governor.

As for Hillary, if she runs she wins.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

41. Nope. We need more progressive Democrats at the state level. We are getting our asses kicked

by the RepubliKKKans.
