A funny thought -- Ok Obama wins nomination - What happens if Hillary runs as McCain's running mate? |
|
Besides the ensuing fireworks the likes of which we have never seen?
I'm not saying she's going to do this... but the scenario crossed my mind.

9. The traditional GOP voters are not too happy with McCain ... |
|
... as it is. Were he to add the much hated (by the RW) Hillary to his ticket, Obama could start moving his belongings into the Oval Office the day it was announced.
It's like asking what the reaction would be on our side if Barack announced Ann Coulter as his VP.

10. OMG That would be funny-- |
|
After years of being propagandized by Limbaugh, the right-wingers couldn't bring themselves to vote for a ticket with Hillary on it, and nobody with brains would vote for McCain. The only votes left would be the ones cast by maliciously programmed voting machines, thereby giving us our first good estimate of the size of the O'Dell Effect.

14. What if Obama is really a Manchurian candidate under Karl Rove's control? |
|
What if we stopped asking "innocent" questions with no factual basis to smear candidates we don't like? What then?

19. She wants to be President and nothing less. |
|
She could have played nice and ended up on the bottom of Obama's ticket a month ago but that is not what she is in it for. It's all or nothing for Hillary.

Net result: Obama wins the general election by a landslide.

Edited on Tue Mar-25-08 12:30 AM by crankychatter
but I think she'll end up with the nomination
and people will try to draft Obama to run Independent
He'll have none of it, and there you go
