Frank/Franken 2016
Now that would be one hell of an interesting ticket. :)

And while I'm not giving up on Obama yet, unless he starts playing hardball on getting REAL health care reform when Congress comes back from recess, I'd gladly float Frank/Franken 2012 as an idea too.

Not that either idea has a chance in hell, but a man can dream.

1. "On What Planet Do You Spend Most of Your Time?"
That's what Frank just told a woman at a Town Hall who explicitly called Obama's HC plan "Nazi".

:rofl:

Frank/Franken would be fine, but I think it'll be a tough run against Obama/Biden.

:donut:

2. Yep, I know the idea is from another planet.
It's a nicer planet than the Nazi woman comes from, however. They have universal single payer health care on my planet too. :)

At any rate, I'm still holding out some hope that Obama is "playing chess" and we'll get something decent for a health care bill.

7. I like your planet, and your ticket.
I just happened to hear Frank moments before reading your OP and wanted to share.

:P

4. A gay Jew at the top of the ticket
And a straight Jew in second position.

And neither of them tall.

Yes, that's a winning combination with the American public.

No, none of that should matter. Yes, it all does matter in the voting booth, enormously.

10. Think of the extra irony/humor value...
...when the wingnuts started calling THEM Nazis. :)

12. It would certainly bring all kinds of poison to the surface.

9. 48-state losers, I'm afraid.
They might carry their home states, maybe.

11. "Not that either idea has a chance in hell..."
I did admit that, with those words, in my OP.

18. Are you responding with real vehemence...
...against a jokingly suggested idea? Were the words in the OP "Not that either idea has a chance in hell, but a man can dream" insufficiently clear?
