They were discussing this on Lou Dobbs tonight. He brings the "young" & "economy" thing to the ticket. Also he did come in #2 in the primaries.

Romney is the RNC version of "Hillary"!

I suppose in this election that's as good a reason to vote for the guy as any.

I like Romney. He speaks out of both sides of his mouth on every issue. I know exactly where I stand with a politician like him. He will always do the politically expedient thing.

Does he have enough experiance

I hope Obama does not pick Richardson.... the more that guy talks for Obama the more turned off I get.

Can you imagine if they announce the VP pick to be Hillary...man that would throw a wrench in the works wouldnt it if that happens to me it shows that they dont feel as cocky as they did before that Obama can win it without the 18 million that voted for her.

1) Not surprised - he's never given Hillary the respect she deserves - why start now?

2) I'm thankful. I don't want her having anything more to do with him than what the DNC is currently demanding of her.

Kentucky Delegate Says Obama Nomination Not Official

FLATWOODS, Ky. (WSAZ) -- With the Democratic National Convention just a week away, there are some local delegates who say a Barack Obama nomination is far from official, including Tyler Murphy.

Murphy -- in a bedroom that looks like a squared oval office, at the ripe old age of 20, a die-hard Democrat and a staunch Bill and Hillary Clinton supporter since he was 8 -- has hit a thin patch

In a formal rules challenge, Murphy and two dozen fellow Kentucky delegates complain that with too many Kentucky men picked under required gender equity, the state Democratic Party replaced pledged Hillary Clinton supporter Todd Hollenbach -- not with a required female Clinton supporter -- but with state representative and Obama activist Ruth Ann Palumbo.

The rule challenge also charges the state party asked Delegate Jeff Harney to resign due to his sexual preference.

"He's a good man (who has) worked for the party, but he is an openly gay male," Murphy said.

The Kentucky Democratic Party response is that each replacement delegate is pledged to Clinton. Murphy said he's one of many national Clinton supporting delegates not conceding anything yet.

"I feel the Democratic Party leadership has failed the rank and file," he said. "As a delegate, I'll be voting for Hillary Clinton."

Murphy said he has nothing but respect for Kentucky Democratic Party Chair Jennifer Moore. But he also feels the early Democratic state caucuses were skewed to Obama, and the Florida and Michigan primary outcomes were unfair to Clinton. Murphy also said there are many Democratic delegates like him across the U.S. who may not be standing hand-in-hand supporting Obama after the last ballot.

could you imagine if she got the nomination....the streets would be riddled with trouble. Not just that but the word unfair and he was robbed will be all over the news. Funny how that made no difference to the OS when Hillary was robbed.

I think he needs to pick Hillary to re excite the base.......Obama has turned so hum drum that he needs her to bring the Clinton edge back into the party. After all if anyone knows how the DEM party works it's the clintons. OS like it or not the Clintons are DEMS through and through. They know how to get things done.

He will get the nomination I'm sure. But I think the Job of POTUS is a 50 /50 bet. Not what was expected in the beginning.

This is absolutely the stupidest thing I have ever read. I think Maureen Dowd is off her rocker. She's been nasty since the primaries, but this piece of alternate reality fiction takes the cake.

What in the heck is her problem? She should see someone about her paranoia issues.

Just a hunch but I'd guess something like this will end up costing Obama more votes than winning him if it has any effect at all. It also goes a long way towards making the NY Times look stupid.

I wonder how many blockheads think she recorded an actual conversation?

Maureen Dowd… she’s a fiction writer – right?

Seriously, each of her articles about Hillary get even more outlandish than the last. Her articles are good for nothing more than putting on a dart board. She’s turning a once respected publication as the New York Times into nothing more than a tabloid rag. I can’t believe that the NYT editor keeps printing the fictitious, paranoia crap that she spews.

Obama was supposed to be the stronger candidate right? He was our only hope to beat McCain right?

HA! McCain takes 5-point lead over Obama.

This is why Obama and the DNC has been replacing Hillary delegates with Obama delegates at the convention. This is why Obama and the DNC threw such a big fit over "allowing" Hillary's name to be on the convention ballot.

I am very hesitant to put any trust into polls, particularly such early ones, but momentum does not seem to be on Obama's side. He has been going downhill since February.

Somehow a McCain victory does not sound like a win for me. As usual the democrats managed to screw up a sure thing.

ETA: Oh, and Dolce27, you are of course 100% right.

 

["Got Disney"]

I lost all respect for the NYT a long time ago. I even mentioned it on the liberal thread that I felt that there articles were more opinionated than fact and that it was turning like a tabloid.....however many bashed me way back when and was told that I was wrong and that it was the best paper around ...might I add that no one here in the Hillary thread were one of them

McCain is making ground just from talking to my once Hillary voter friends and even some of my Obama supporter friends are starting to pull away from the Dem side because they are starting to question Obama. Although none of them feel like either candidate will destroy the world.

However some of my OS friends have told me that they do not feel as they did about Obama before and are questioning him but will still vote for him anyway.

Will be interesting on election day to see how it all pans out.

On CNN.com, I found the link name to this article to be funny: "Waiting on Obama VP gets old, tired and then funny"

The actual article title is: Speculation, anticipation as Obama's VP announcement nears
But I think that the media if finally beginning to tire of Obama's antics.

Not any new info in the article really... they had this to say:

In a poke at all of the VP buzz, the Obama campaign on Wednesday sent an e-mail to reporters with the subject line "Vice presidential ..."


The first line of the e-mail: "Just kidding." The e-mail contained details about Obama's schedule with no mention of any of the potential vice presidential candidates.

Give it another couple of months and I bet most of the media-Obama love-fest will be over and they'll turn on him. Then they'll start covering the stories about him such as Ayers, Rezko, ACORN, Palestinians donating to his campaign.. stuff that should have been covered months ago but will now be too late to do anything about once the Convention is over next week.

She is extremely sarcastic (something I know Nutin about )...however I think this article is written 'asif' this is what OS'ers are thinkin.

Maybe thats why Obama responded ...... "doesn't know what he's up against"

If you heard the speech....he was PEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVED!!!!! It came out very nasty!

I think its very funny how CNN keeps mentioning that FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER Obama will send recipients text msgs of who his VP pick will be.
They really making a big deal about this.
1) text msg have been around for a few years now....Obamas campaign aint doing nutin different than any Horoscope or Gossip website!
2) The VP pick is always a HUGE STORY that news sources wait for every 4 years. Whoever gets the news first wins. It's a BIG deal for the Press. News reporters have serious $$$$$ betting on this. Does anyone really think that the text msg will be released BEFORE the News sources get it?
