Watch Giuliani on American Morning Thursday.
(CNN) – Rudy Giuliani, former presidential candidate turned John McCain supporter, said Thursday that a Democrat could conceivably occupy the number 2 spot on the Republican presidential ticket.
“The reality is either way you might see something like that,” the former New York City mayor told CNN’s Kiran Chetry on American Morning when asked about talk of Sen. Barack Obama choosing a Republican like Sen. Chuck Hagel as his running mate.
Giuliani said he has not spoken with McCain about possibly choosing a Democratic running mate. “But, if you’re asking me is it possible in this day and age that you could have a ticket like that? I think so.”
While he conceded that he could think of “a couple” Democrats who might fit the bill as potential McCain VP’s, Giuliani said the decision was ultimately McCain’s.

Used to be for Hillary... Now for McCain
Annoy the Media, Say No to Obama!
From a Proud flip flopper...
McCain/Biden!!!!! Two very strong men.
Any self respecting Democrat who jumps on the McCain ticket.... wait, none would commit politicial suicide and do that. Unless the Republicans are serious about getting Paris or Britney?
Break out the Viagra,
McCain/Hilton 08!
That's hot!
McCain/Clinton – I don't think so
Who can he possibly be talking about other than Lieberman?
Hard to consider him a Democrat any way.
And for the Hillary voters: if you guys are truly Hillary supporters, how can you say you would vote for McCain...a guy who does not support ANY of Hillary's positions.
He is just playing games. The only way this would happen is if he needed a certain segment of states and a blue dog conservative democrat fit the bill. There is a world of difference between a blue dog democrat then the left wingers.
McCain lost five U.S. Navy aircraft.
look it up!
McCain doesn't need to worry about the Republican party base because Obama has taken care of that for him.
He needs to worry about moderates and Dems who don't like Obama.
Besides a moderate Democrat could bring in a historically Democratic state.
If you morons think that Hillary is willing to take a backseat to Obama and be VP...you are dumber than you look!!!
Maybe he should choose hillary. They are just so much alike.
Mccain doesnt care anything about us. He only want to win by any means. He doesnt care what party or who the person is who runs with
him as long as he wins. I remember the thing he said in the beginning
of the primaries and I see the way he looks down his nose at certain
groups of people. If you listen to his speeches and watch his expression he actually talk down to people.
I truly hope he chooses Lieberman they are both rich and neither cares about anyone but themselves. the perfect union I think.
Giuliani. A hack and a has been! YAWN!
Since McCain is so old he might never make it through his first term, meaning a Democrat would become President. The Repugs would never allow that!
I do not see that happening. The Repubs would not go for that at all. This is just something for Rudy to say to try & show the Repubs are open minded, willing to reach across the isle, just more of their lies to mislead the public. McCain, if elected, will be just an extension of what we have now, no change, just more of the same failed policies of GW. We need real change, Change We Can Believe In. We need Obama for President 08-12.
What a load of Bull!! Its nothing but more pandering. McCain wouldn't dare upset W's base by choosing a Democrat. It would be a really really smart move, therefore its not even being considered.
McCain and Guiliani and Romney and the rest will only move the country more to the right than it already is.
I guarantee you, there is absolutely ZERO discussion about getting a democrat for VP. If so, they would announce the VP before the Democrat convention to show how separated the Dems are.
I have some questions for all Obama supporters. One, why do you want the US to move so far down the path of socialism/communism? His proposed programs are stacked with expensive government give-aways that someone, presumably those who actually work, will have to pay for. Is it because you don't want to work and want to live in a one-room, government-owned apartment for the rest of your life?
"America needs a uniter, America needs Obama,
this world needs Barack Obama."
hahaha....OHH YOU WERE SERIOUS? SORRY.
It make me sad to see so many supporters of this idiot whose solution to the Gas Prices is to put air in our tires and get tune-ups. Ohhh thanks for that mr. mechanic errr President. LOL, what a tool. the solution is not to depend on foriegn oil genius.
The real problem is liberals in this country and their "feelings". Think for once, it helps.
Also, please if you are on welfare kindly sit this election out until you are actually supporting yourself.
I supported Giuliani....but...I am now on the Obama camp -
We are suppose to listen to a man whose run for the Presidency included campaigning in only FL?
Will not happen. I guess No Obama news makes for a boring blog.
Seeing the truth – How can he pick the Mesiah. Isnt he running for president already?
I believe McCain will do anything to win this election....I wouldn't be surprised if he asked Obama to be his VP, just to win!
And McCain would not see that as flip-flopping at all!
Oh yeah? Since when are Democrats good enough, smart enough, etc. to run as John McCain's V.P.? He is nothing but a joke!
Lieberman is no longer a democrat..
HEY RUDY! get lost you pretender.
To-So Tired of Obama .......get some Rest !!!!
You will get over It .......I am sick and tired of You
**** Giuliani! Wonder why McAttack did not Pick you ......You are a Republican....you both have cheatedt on your wives and Look like a Monkey
