Say No to Hillary as VP

[pbca]

These rumours keep popping up, driven mainly be the media's need to talk about something I imagine. But just in case, please take a moment to contact the Obama campaign and urge them not to consider Hillary for VP

1. If there is a woman VP. It will be Claire McCaskill

someone who has been there with him since January

[NorthCarolina]

13. Or Gov. Sebelius

eom

[TheDebbieDee]

15. Sen. McCaskill is also a DINO.............

I don't want anyone as unpredictable as she one heartbeat from the Presidency. I can't tell you how many times I have been disappointed with her votes to enable the * regime since she took her seat in January '07.

I'm from Missouri and I only pray for more progressive Democratic candidates to run against both her and that $hitstain repuke Sen. Kit Bond the next time their sets come up.

[roguevalley]

19. this, for what its worth from www.americablog.com

"Hillary is now trying to rally her major donors to help her stay in the race beyond this week (her campaign is talking about challenging Michigan now), and at the same time the donors are magically, on their very own (nudge nudge wink wink) demanding that Hillary stay in the race until the convention.

"A Clinton donor tells me that on a conference call today with major fundraisers this afternoon, Harold Ickes told them Clinton isn't planning to drop out. He pressed donors to stay unified, and reviewed tactical options, including challenging the Michigan delegation.

"State finance committees are also circulating letters to deliver to Clinton tomorrow in New York, and I've obtained a draft of the Illinois finance committee's letter, being circulated by a Clinton fundraising aide, Rafi Jafri, which stresses a fight until the convention, and a resolution in "August, and no earlier."

I guess the fat lady, so to speak, might not be singing yet.

[MonkeyFunk]

25. I can pretty much guarantee it won't be mcCaskill

She's been in the Senate for a year and a half, and Missouri has a republican governor who'd replace her. Either fact rules her out.

[sfam]

32. Fully agree. Sebelius would be a FAR better choice besides...

And yeah, lets not lose any Senate seats in the VP selection. This is why Obama shouldn't pick Mark Warner even though he would flat out give us VA in a way that Jim Webb would not. Bottom line, if we lose Mark Warner in the VA senate race, we lose a Senate seat.

But Sebelius is recognized as one of the best governors, is appealing to independents and repubs, is Catholic, and has a father that used to be governor of Ohio. Two senators on the ticket is badness, unless there are TONS of other positives.

[LostinVA]

2. Then you can say

Yes to McCain.

Obama won't win in the GE on his own.

[apocalypsehow]

6. Obama is going to win in a walk no matter who he puts on the ticket - and it ain't going to be HRC.

[acmavm]

45. Do not count on that fact. You may be A VERY DISAPPOINTED arrogant

fool in November.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

11. who will taste his food, if she is VP?

or maintain the chopper? She would energize the GOP like no one else. SHe is vile, amoral, a confirmed congenital liar, and has absolutely no scruples. hardly an example of "change".

[Why Syzygy]

17. Your days are numbered being able to post that crap at DU.

[LostinVA]

46. I love threats

[grace0418]

28. And if Obama chooses Hillary, he may as well get three desk chairs for the Oval Office.

Because Bill and Hillary will be constantly trying to take over.

[guruoo]

36. snort!

:rofl:

[Submariner]

3. The Bosnia sniper lie killed that long ago

You can't have someone in the top 2 positions who tells such a blatant lie insulting to those REALLY in harm's way. The GOP would cream the ticket with Bosnia lie ads set against McSame POW ads. No chance at VP for Clinton.

[guruoo]

37. What BS....

geez, get over it!

[FSogol]

4. You trust Obama to be the candidate. Trust him to make the right vp choice. n/t

[pbca]

5. I do trust him

I just want to make sure he doesn't feel pressured to do it and understand that the people who have supported him this long will support him in NOT making Hillary VP as well.

He's already said he doesn't want her as VP, just making sure he knows we agree.

[Adelante]

34. That's right

We should stay off his back on this.

[Cha]

7. That's easy...Hell NO.

hilary blew that months ago.

[justinsb]

8. K & R

[ej510]

9. I'm saying Hell No to Hillary!!!!!!!

K&R

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

10. I kinda think Mrs. Obama would rather not have such a ticket

just looking at what Hillary has spoken about requarding the month of June recently, to say nothing about Mrs. Obamas allready existing concerns.

[Vattel]

21. If Michelle was worried that some nut would hear

about Clinton's remark and shoot her husband, then she should balme her husband's campaign for making sure everyone heard about Clinton's remark. To quote the NY Times (Seeyle, (5/26/08): "Shortly after Mrs. Clinton spoke on Friday, the Obama campaign jumped on the story, sending an e-mail message to reporters saying her comment had no place in a presidential campaign. It linked to a online report in The New York Post that said Mrs. Clinton was ''making an odd comparison between the dead candidate and Barack Obama—a phrase the newspaper later dropped."


And by the way, only an idiot would draw Olbermann's conclusion that Clinton implied that she was staying in the race hoping that something terrible would happen.

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

23. Pardon my chuckles at your inept reply

:rofl:
5 minute smoke break.

[newmajority]

12. Obama/Richardson will be the ticket.

Democrats will get behind the ticket. Hillbot disruptors aren't Democrats to begin with, so they can go fuck themselves.

[DDQ]

44. Unity Unity Unity........ How does Obama attract all of you

to him. Does he put out signals? Or do think being a jerk is somehow being a Democrat? Or maybe just an Obama Democrat? Reminds me of the far right.

What do you believe in? Can you give a serious answer?

[Why Syzygy]

14. Done! and Kick!

[greguganus]

16. Done and kicked and rec'd!! n/t

[greguganus]

18. Chanting "HELL NO! HILLARY AND BO!!" n/t

[last1standing]

20. Say No to these asinine threads.

I trust Obama to make the right decision as to who should be his running mate.

If you don't then you shouldn't have voted for him to begin with. :eyes:

[Piperay]

22. NO! nt

[mzmolly]

24. I want them to consider the polls.

:hi:

[sfam]

26. How 'bout we let Obama decide...I for one TRUST his judgment...

If Obama decides that Hillary is the right VP choice, than I fully support it.

[Texasgal]

29. Agreed..

He is a smart man who will make the right choice.

[goclark]

27. Txs for the link ~ I responded

and suggested that if he needed a woman on the ticket, pick OBAMA/Boxer.

[Imagevision]

30. Obama knows what he's doing - Hillary or NO Hillary...

[kevinmc]

31. Obama is smart enough to pick who he needs and he doesn't need me telling him. n/t

[dailykoff]

33. If he doesn't hear from voters who object to the idea,

how is he going to know? I see no harm in sending him a polite but firm message that this is NOT a good idea!

[The River]

35. I Trust His Judgement

but it's OK for us to have a preference.
Sebelius has the same air of calm awareness
that Obama does.
She could easily be the first female President
if she chose to run after 4-8 years as VP.
We don't need an "attack-dog" veep (like you know who).
Thats the old politics we hope to get away from.

[Lady-Damai]

38. Say FUCK No to Hillary as VP

[KAZ]

39. If she would dump Bill, and his clan, I would have no problem.

[wvbygod]

40. No

Hillary for President!

[barack the house]

41. It's got to be sebelius we need a clean break Kathleen can kick some behind.

[Clear Blue Sky]

42. No, no and no...nt

[berni_mccoy]

43. Agreed. When RW pundits start pushing her as a VP candidate (Mary Matalin just did on CNN)

You know she's the wrong choice.

[pbca]

47. Kicking this

Instead of reposting it.

[merkins]

48. K&R! ... No Surrogates Either

.

[WA98070]

49. I just sent my second email on this to the campaign this morning.

[TexasObserver]

50. She's wholly unacceptable for VP.

[Diane R]

51. Please. No Hillary. I just want her to go away.

[Swamp Rat]

52. Just remember 2000 - DLC Lieberman

[Eurobabe]

53. Done, again. K&R

[WA98296]

54. Just SAY NO!

[EFerrari]

55. I did and let them know this Latina would get out Latinos for him. n/t

[WA98296]

56. Write an email to his website...Just Say NO!

[Willo]

57. I'm seeing the game now

She's contacting everyone to push this VP hostage crap to the media

Then she says "if he asks" she would consider it.

This way if he doesn't ask, she's ready to really push the bad guy bit

She's a real piece of work.

Hell no Hillary.

[ForeignSpectator]

61. Makes sense, she got all the worth possible out of her scorched earth strategy the past months

Time to switch to something new now to ensure mccain 2008...

[chill_wind]

58. Sent them my thoughts and urge those who agree to do the same. n/t

[jgraz]

59. don't worry. Obama is far too smart to do something that stupid.

He knows what a walking disaster the Clintons are. He may ask them to make a few appearances with him, but that will be the extent of their involvement with his campaign.

[EFerrari]

60. I think you're right and I hope you're right. n/t
