Nancy Pelosi: No Joint Ticket

thank you. speaker of the house nancy pelosi is the only one that makes sense on this "dream ticket" nightmare:

For at least the fourth time in a little more than a month, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has made it clear she thinks Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama shouldn't run together on a joint ticket this fall.

“No, I don’t think it’s a good idea,” she told CNN’s Larry King Thursday. “First of all, the candidate, whoever he or she may be, should choose his or her own vice presidential candidate. I think that’s appropriate. That’s where you would see the comfort level, not only how to run but how to govern the country.

“And there’s plenty of talent to go around to draw upon for a good, strong ticket. I’m not one of those who thinks that that’s a good ticket.”

King asked whether that was because she thought there was too much animosity between the two.

"No," replied Pelosi. "I just think that — well, let’s put it this way: if they think it’s a good ticket, maybe it is. But I don’t think that we should thrust the vice presidential choice onto the presidential nominee. That’s her or his decision to make."

Again With the "Dream Ticket"

the only people calling for this so called obama - clinton "dream ticket" are those who haven't been paying close attention, those who think that clinton is okay and hasn't watched her make every nasty move. no doubt, all the mud slinging originated with hillary and obama has had to respond in a tempered manner.

she would taint obama's message of change. she is old-style politics and obama is running against that.

she has proven herself to of poor character, more of the same. funny thing, i used to like hillary when she was first lady. but then again, i've never paid this much attention to politics. the only thing she has in her favor is that she's a woman and her supporters are really looking forward to a woman president.

clinton tried to pitch her hillary - obama ticket as an exploitative way to say that she was more presidential. it didn't work.

as to what i will do if hillary steals the election, i think i will sit this one out. to vote for hillary would be to vote for someone who is below the highest office in the nation. the oval office does not need to be sullied anymore.

i don't think i could vote for mccain. i think he's wrong minded on foreign policy and oblivious to economics. after four years of hillary or mccain, we would surely be ready for change, and obama could run in 2012. sometimes you gotta hit bottom before change happens.

Clinton Defends Herself At Her Roundtable

at hillary clinton's roundtable today in pennsylvania, she defended her campaign. she said that she doesn't know where this call for her to get out is coming from.

clinton's only chance of winning is to persuade enough superdelegates that she should win. since march 3, obama has gained 19 supers and she has gained 9.
here goes former new york governor mario cuomo again, babbling on about the "dream ticket."

Think of it, over the next eight years we could elect both the first woman and the first African-American to become president. That's not a dream: It's a plausible, achievable, glorious possibility - if our two remaining candidates have the personal strength and wisdom to make it happen. The joint statement announcing their agreement would rock the nation and resound across the globe - sweeter than any political poetry; smarter and more meaningful than any tightly intelligent political prose.

cuomo has not been paying attention. there is a stark contrast between obama and clinton when it comes to leadership styles, integrity and character.

obama needs to choose his own vice president. why would he choose someone who has drug him down. i'd rather see someone fresh and not entangled in loyalty politics. this isn't about seeing the "first african american" or the "first woman." get over it cuomo. this is the highest office in the nation. it's about having the right person in office, the person who can be the best leader.
