That said, should McCain decide to mend fences with the condescending and smarmy Mitt Romney there's no way I'd be on board with them. What's a guy to do...

Obama needs to find a retired and respected military general to join his ticket. It's hard to imagine the Democrats having a better chance of winning than with that one-two punch.

I say pick anybody that wouldn't have the likelihood of dying in their first term. McCain is older than Methuselah (who died at 969 years of age) so we need someone who will actually be alive on Inauguration Day.

Demographic factors play a role in the overall makeup of every individual across this planet. However, some factors are simply minor and never play a major role in a person's success. Sen. Obama’s and Sen. Clinton’s intelligent, education, family support, leadership, vision, public service, and ethical and moral conduct are the factors that matter most. These factors have determined the outcome of the nomination race to this point and will be the defining factors in who wins the nomination and the presidency.

There is a general mindset of anger and hatred that permeates in contests when money, power, and opportunity are at stake. This mindset encapsulates politics of the past. Frustration and disappointment from losing are but just two catalysts that brings this odious outdated mindset to the forefront. Just pay closer attention to the emergent rhetoric and actions of the Clinton camp. After Sen. Clinton placed third in the Iowa Primary, she began to refer to Sen. Obama as a “just a kid”—code for just a boy. She used a high powered, racially couched, coded term for boy to refer to her Senatorial and Democratic Party peer, her fellow Harvard alum who is a 44 year old man, a man who has traveled the world and served his country well as a community activist, Constitutional Lawyer, Illinois State Senator, and U.S. Senator of Illinois, and man who has more legislative experience than Sen. Clinton.

The Clinton-Ferraro controversy must be noted. Ferraro’s comments are devoid of merit and are not based on any logical facts. First, Sen. Obama is bi-racial and can be identified as white not black. Ferraro's opinion harkens back to an old, racist mindset that a single drop of African blood makes you black. This connotation, in fact, underpins Ferraro's comments, and it can only be interpreted by most voters as an overt appeal to divisiveness.

The most alarming issue here is not race. It is the current positions in the nomination race that each candidate enjoys. Sen. Clinton started the nomination race with the advantages of name recognition, money, committed Superdelegates, and an overstated resume. Despite these advantages, it now appears she cannot win this nomination race if she, her husband, and her supporters do not play the race card, fear card, gender card, cheat card, and trick card. Just remind yourself of Sen. Clinton’s endorsement of Sen. McCain as Commander and Chief, her fear mongering 3:00 A.M. advertisement, her erroneous claim of unfair and unequal media coverage, her claim of not having anything to do with the release of a misleading and inflammatory photo, and her appeal to the media to aide her efforts to smear the good name and good works Sen. Obama.

After she agreed not to campaign in states of Michigan and Florida, now she wants to change the rules of the game and have those delegates seated as is. Sen. Clinton’s claim of tough treatment by the press sums up her conduct in this nomination race. Could her so-called unfair and unequal media coverage be the result of her name recognition, a name steeped in scandals and controversies and bereft of any hint of trustworthiness and truthfulness dating back to Arkansas? Since the outcome in Iowa, the Clinton camp has used political strategies and tactics of the past in dealing dirty cards from the bottom of the deck. But she’s complaining?

OBAMA WILL BE PRESIDENT08

you'd think they'd of figured out that the idea of Romney as president is a real loooooser

All this is documented and the WSJ & FOX are carrying it.

I’ve al ways know the so called liberal media is anything but liberal, in fact the news media is neither liberal nor nonbiased. You prove this everyday in a number of ways. One of the most obvious is in how you always introduce panelist in order of race, white panelists are always introduced first before there black co panelist. This is the normal practice for CNN and Headline News. The white panelists are introduced first, no matter how much more knowledge or experience the black co panelists may have on the topic. The white panelist are also introduced first before there older black co panelist. You don’t even introduce ladies first, when a panel is made up of white men and one or more black women. I believe the new media is in part, responsible for a lot of the bigotry in the world today, yet somehow you manage to appear to be watchdogs of guardians of democracy , I’ve come to know the news media is anything but what the public needs and trust her to be. YOU MISUSE YOUR POWER AND AS A COLLECTIVE YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED.

Huckabee is a TOTAL nutjob.He is as far to the right as you could possibly get and would scare most conservatives.

No background checks on guns / Constitutional ban on abortion / No gay right / NO stem cell research.

I am surprised the guy got the votes he did.

He would make a TERRIBLE president and hurt McCain's chances as a VP

McCain can whip the Dems on foreign policy and experience.
Romney can whip them on economics and budgeting.

Meanwhile Hillary will be trying to find a way to white out Obama's name on the ballots.

I supported Mitt for President. We need his skills for this economy. I'm not sure about the pairing with McCain.

Pander/Ring 08!

I'd be willing to vote for a McCain/Rice ticket.

WHO CARES ?"

This is a typical arrogance of a obama supporter.
