Taka,

Mitt Romney would drive the right-wing nutters crazy. Well, crazier. A mormon and a "RINO". Even your hardcore partisan hack will have a hard time avoiding spontaneous internal combustion over that one.

Obama's wife will try to decide who he picks. She wears the trousers in their household. Doesn't like Hillary because she believes she is the Next Hillary.

But at this moment I'd say Obama - who still has no real message other than mouthing "hope" and "change" - is dangerously beholden to polls and to "netroots" activism, mass online emoting and hysteria, which young "liberals" and aged hippies alike now seem to equate with the expression of "true democracy."

Obama is also bound to the national liberal media which helped create him.

super delegate,

John McCain is the distaff partner in a morganatic marriage but Michelle wears the pants in the Obama family? And then there's Bill. Looks like we're doomed no matter what happens.

We've come a long way from "Obama is a muslim," I see. He's gone all the way from being a member of a religion that puts men ahead of women to being a hen-pecked husband. Amazing, truly amazing.

"a hen-pecked husband"

Can a hen-pecked husband beat a war hero?

"never-say-die Hillary Rodham Clinton"

Go, Hillary!

"Former North Carolina Sen. John Edwards"

Edwards: I will not accept the nomination for vice president!

Wendy's counter clerk: Would you like a Frosty with that?

Taka,

Thanks for pointing out the obvious. ;)

The only question that actually matter's is who is Senator Obama going to choose to be his vice-president?
Sarge at 10:39 PM JST - 23rd May

Madverts - That would be, who is Senator Obama going to choose to be his vice presidential running mate? That's if he actually gets past Hillary.

If nominated, obama should choose Mondale. At least he knows there are 50 states and Afghanis don't speak Arabic.

Personally I'd like to see McCain pick Lieberman, that would throw the Republicans and the Democrats into fits. It makes sense though if you think about it, both moderates who are disliked by their parties (although Lienerman is an independent now).
Madverts at 11:48 PM JST - 23rd May

Uh, sarge;

I said "the only question that actually matters".

Please read before posting.

Madverts, No, you said "the only question that actually matter's" - please check punctuation before posting.
But aside from that, Obama is not going to have a vice president, he's only going to have a vice presidential running mate - if he gets past Hillary.

"Uh, sarge"

Is that supposed to make me feel inferior? Is your intellect really superior to mine? Hey, Madverts - I'm laughing at the superior intellect.

usaexpat - Personally I'd like to see McCain pick Obama - that would create the Nightmare Team!

RR - Good one.

Don't you have to retire in America at 65 under Federal law? Why is McCain still looking for a job?

"Don't you have to retire in America at 65 under Federal law? Why is McCain still looking for a job?"

He loves his country.

Naturally, your average Obama supporter doesn't quite understand...
