Watching Barbara Boxer on MSNBC...I want an Obama/Boxer ticket |
|
Of course if he gets the nomination, I dont think it will happen. Arnold I believe could appoint somebody to take her place if Im not mistaken. But I think that ticket would be a real winner.

3. Please do not wish CA lose the only progressive Senator we have! |
|
Arnold would appoint a Republican and we'd be screwn.

14. Barbara is awesome in everything she does. |
|
I watched her kick EPA @ss last week which is difficult under this administration. She just plowed right in. And she stood with the CBC when the Senate tried to paper over Ohio. We're lucky to have someone like her. :)

21. And have you ever seen her lose her cool? I haven't. |
|
She is David going against Goliath so many times, yet inevitably she is calm and poised and acting like the world is her oyster.
Her attitude seems to be a childlike one ("childlike" in the greater sense of the word) -- that because she is right she will win. Using her calmness and perseverance as the victorious weapon against the Forces of relentless Evil.

with Edwards as AG... go after those corporations!... Plus Obama does amazing in redish districts... with all these republicans retiring... we might get enough votes to get some meaningful policies passed. Of course if you want the opposite to happen vote for hillary.

10. Think I'd prefer Boxer/ Feingold. ` |
|
Have to be a little realistic. The sad part. Arni wants her slot. He will have the big bucks. It won't be easy for Barbara come 2010.

33. too bad Clinton did not listen to Graham |
|
before she cast her vote to go to war in Iraq. Bob Graham knew better. So, guess that would be a positive for her actual Administration. Graham could say, told you so.

8. When I still had a hope for Biden, |
|
I couldn't make up my mind between Obama and Boxer for VP. Of course, Joe never sought my input, so I didn't have to decide.
I'd LOVE to see Boxer as VP!

If I were you, I'd hope he could find it in himself to do that, too.

25. I said nothing negative about Boxer |

Edited on Tue Jan-29-08 02:41 PM by MonkeyFunk
I've been voting for her for many years.
I'm discussing a political reality, but you have to turn it into a candidate slam. Can't you people help yourselves? Or is it biological?
And what does this thread have to do with Clinton? Or are you fighting with my avatar? That's really fucking childish.

16. Obama is going to have to have a VP with foreign policy experience of some kind. |
|
McCain would kick his ass with his warmongering campaign...terror, terror, terror...fear, fear, fear.....war, war, war for 100 years in Iraq.
I do love Boxer though.

22. Richardson was my early pick. But this ticket would drive Every Racist in the country even further |

31. HRC and BB's relationship |
|
Boxer's daughter was married to HRC's brother. They divorced several years ago. The only relationship now is that Boxer's grandson's aunt is HRC.

32. That's odd. After my sister's divorce, I never stopped thinking of her ex as my bro-in-law. |
