C-Span Caller - "Obama is Considering Sebelius as VP"

Just now on the air. Anyone heard this?

BAD IDEA, Barack. That woman is a GOP-lite automaton. Don't do it.

1. So some C-SPAN caller says it and therefore it's true?

14. Well, I don't think she LITERALLY has circuitry in her head...
...but that was the strong impression I got from her rebuttal, although it was rather hard staying awake through it.

I'm sure she's a fine governor considering she comes from a very right-wing state, but on a national basis, she seems GOP-lite.

7. The DLC'ers started that rumor
Because the thought of a ticket without ANY Republican infiltrators on it scares the shit out of them.

I've heard no such discussion in the real world.

12. I think it would be a great idea!
She certainly echoed a lot of his idealism and cross-party call for action tonight. I was very impressed with her. She's almost the anti-Hillary.

17. At least Hillary has a personality.
I'm sure there's too much bad blood between Obama and Hillary at this point for them to run on the same ticket, but I would hope he would pick someone with a bit more personality.

13. Is Sibelius our token woman on the ticket?
No thanks.

I would like to see this issue move beyond sex and racial stereotypes.

18. speaking of stereotypes: Don't Drop the Soap!
Edited on Mon Jan-28-08 11:06 PM by Konza
Nope, that's really the title of her sons newly released game.
It involves prison fights, gang rapes, and drug dealing in the big house.
All sorts of ethnic/racial and sexual orientation jokes to be enjoyed by the whole family.
To be fair Kathleen isn't really responsible for her idiot son, he's 23 and old enough to make an ass of himself without parental supervision.
But she is defending his idiocy as humorous, and the Sebelius family are "are very proud of their son John's creativity and talent".

Jeesh

Oh, for ordering info, or just to register your opinion, here's Johnny's website. He's a dimwitted dilettante, so do be gentle. He really thinks he is funny and cute.

19. Well well...
So, to get elected, Obama is adding a repug lite as his VP, if...he gets the nomination. The governor stated that the husband was RW and she is a Democrat, so count on politics as usual. BTW:Ted Kennedy is a dumb ass who should resign from politics.
