hillary may have her faults, but if she gets the nomination...

[Gato Moteado]

...wes clark will be her running mate and i bet we can look forward to 16 years of dems in the whitehouse. honor and integrity will be returned to the oval office.

hillary is not my top choice and she has her faults, but she could very well be the next president and i think she'd do a great job.

on this board, rather than running her down (or running down any candidate of ours), we should be discussing ways to get her over to the right side of the couple issues she is currently on the wrong side of (ie: iraq war and letting insurance companies design health care plans).

1. Wes Clark?

That would be great. I never thought of him.

[bunkerbuster1]

7. I kind of assume Wes will be on the short list.

Longtime friend of Bill & Hillary, yadda yadda.

13. Are you kidding me?

14. that story uses counterpunch and joe lieberman as its sources

doesn't pass the smell test

[gilpo]

15. Fair enough... how about the BBC, then?

I agree that most of the negative coverage of Clark is from the right, but that kind of make sense. I don't trust him.

2. Just curious, how do you know Clark will be her running mate?

She is my last choice among the Dems primarily because of her Corporate ties, but I think she would still make a fine President. Certainly better than any of the Rethuglicans.

I think it would be great to see Wes running for VP, regardless of who gets the nom.

6. bank on it.

if she wins, clark will be her running mate.

[johnaries]

9. I would like something a little more substantial in the way of evidence,

if you don't mind.

11. just call me kresgin

;)

[johnaries]

16. Ah, do you mean Kreskin?

Because, seriously, right now he's more believable than you are.

I'm not saying that you are wrong, but if you are going to make statements like this then you have to give some kind of "back-up" or else expect lots of assholes like me to ask WTF are you talking about?

[lvx35]

12. If I knew that was true, I'd work for her campaign.

I think Hillary is okay, but I a huge fan of Wes Clark.

3. So far away from there.

As for Wes Clark, the continuing nonentity, name me one state he can win. One.

[Gato Moteado]

10. all we need is ohio or florida

and clark would certainly help hilly out there. he'd also help out a lot in the south where hillary would be weak.

clark is a war hero, he's good looking, articulate. if there was any dirt on him, it certainly would have come out by now. he's clean.

and...he was born in chicago, as was hillary. i think it would be cool to have two chicagoans on the ticket storming in from the windy city to push the texas filth out of the white house.

if hillary's the nom, my money is on clark as veep.

that said, whoever ends up being our nominee is fine by me. republicans are human garbage....let's sweep them out of the white house and into the can.

4. what about the deal struck between the Clinton camp

and Tom Vilsack for him to be the running mate if he dropped out of the field? You aren't suggesting she would renege on that are you?

8. Agreed

Well said!

[Omphaloskepsis]

17. Yeah, we should hope to pull her over on the two most important issues..

Why not start with someone that is already in agreement.

Fucking brilliant.
