What two Democrats can beat a Romney & Huckabee ticket?? |
|
If you think it's an automatic win, you are whistling past the graveyard. I will have to see more than what I have seen from the Democrats up to this point before I say they can beat the Republican ticket. The worst political defeats are those suffered from over-confidence or a false sense of victory. Maybe we will need to tie up the Democrats in the backyard with the pitbulls, and feed them a little gunpowder, to make them mean enough to compete with the Republicans? I am not yet convinced we are ready to win the next election.

12. Hiccupbee thinks Mittens belief is that baby Jesus is Satan's brother |
|
Hiccupbee isn't going to be around no one that thinks that.
Isn't this a hoot?

13. And they think Hillary is Satan? |
|
They will unite against the Democrats. Remember John McCain hugging George W Bush after the way he was treated?

5. I think we're going to whip them like a rented mule. |
|
Honestly, I am not seeing Mitt Romney as their nominee.
You might be right -- he could surprise me and take their podium in Minneapolis.
But if he manages somehow to get that far, I think we'll rip the flesh from his bones in the general election.

6. Barack Obama and Bill Richardson |
|
Richardson would bring a hefty amount of diplomatic experience to the VP office. His pro-gun views would attract voters that might otherwise default Republican on the gun issue alone.

17. I'd support that ticket |

Though I'd prefer Kucinich/Edwards, of course.

Headliner Rufus Hicks, aged 76, of McComb, Mississippi. He was a campaign volunteer for Robert Kennedy and is a lifelong Democrat. And for Vice-President, Imajean Bodine, 82, of FlatGap, Kentucky. She proudly voted for Truman, Kennedy, Johnson, Carter and Clinton as a lifelong Democrat.
These two Democrats could beat a Romney/Huckabee (or vice versa) ticket. Or pick any two other Democrats and we'd still beat those two.

18. The way they have torn each other apart |
|
in the primaries, it would only prove the hypocritical and opportunistic nature of the Republican party for them to suddenly put aside their chasm of policy differences to create a ticket that could please the most possible voters.
I think this is a non-issue. A Romney/Giuliani ticket is far more realistic to me.

19. Anybody, Romney is so beatable it isn't funny. |
|
We have to take him seriously because a Romney presidency is a frightening prospect, but we can beat him certainly.
