Bond: Obama-Biden "most liberal ticket EVER"

[PatSeg]

The republicans are scrapping the bottom of the barrel. They've run out of "tricks". Now they're back to "liberal" is a dirty word.



<1) Obama-Biden is the most liberal ticket in American history. His exact words: "By choosing Joe Biden, Barack Obama has solidified the title as the most liberal ticket ever to be put forward by the Democratic Party."

Obama, he said, has been rated by the National Journal as the most liberal senator and Biden the third-most liberal.>

<2) The Biden selection will have almost zero impact on McCain's thinking about who his veep should be, Bond said. In fact, he called the pick of Biden a "non-factor" in McCain's choice.

"I don't think Joe Biden presents any challenges that Senator McCain can't meet by himself.">

1. Most liberal is precisely whats needed to fix the Bush fuckups

[Captain Hilts]

2. That's just not true. This is not a progressive ticket.

FDR: Nope. Bond must have missed LBJ in '64, Mondale-Ferraro '84, Dukakis '88...
ER: Not quite, but I'm still looking forward to going to Denver. Let's go!

7. Good point

They just keep recycling the same old crap - "Hmmmm, well this worked in '88, lets try it again." No imagination whatsoever. And the zombies who vote them don't even realize its the same tired fare.

[speedoo]

3. Kit Bond is the biggest asshole in the Senate.

Yes, even a bigger asshole than asswipes like Imhofe, Bunning, Cornyn, McConnell, etc. etc.

4. It's amazing how every ticket we run every year is the "most liberal EVER."

I guess we keep topping ourselves.

[Captain Hilts]

10. Wouldn't it be grand if it were true: Frank/Feingold in ??!!!! nt

5. It might be a "non factor", but he said

and I quote; In an interview with CBS on Sunday, McCain said, "Joe and I have been friends for many, many years, and we know each other very well, and so I think he's made a very wise selection."

"I know that Joe will campaign well for Senator Obama, and so I think he's going to be very formidable... Obviously, Joe and I have been on different philosophical sides, but we have been - I consider him a good friend and good man," he added.

So he has thought about the challenge.

6. I thought Kerry was. Gee - that's what they told me before.

Guess that's a good sign, that they can't come up with anything new!

[PatSeg]

8. Oh my God, they're Democrats AND they're Liberal!!!

[denverbill]

9. I'm pretty sure Lieberman was on the 'most liberal' list in 2000.

It would be pretty damned funny if McCain nominates him as VP.

[jillan]

16. I think they did - I think they called Gore/Lieberman the most liberal ticket ever.

:P

[SuperTrouper]

11. McCain-Romney: Richest team ever

McCain-Hutchison: Most confused team ever
McCain-Pawlenty: Most Collapsed Team ever (as in collapsed integrity and collapsed bridge)

[TwilightGardener]

12. Eh, too late, Kitty--Hagel already called the Obama/Biden ticket "good news for America".

And he's at least as conservative as you are.

[sniffa]

13. They managed to top Kerry/Edwards, the most liberal ticket in recorded history

:yawn:

[slackmaster]

14. I guess he doesn't remember McGovern/Eagleton, uh, Kenned, er Shriver in 1972

:shrug:

[Muttocracy]

15. I thought they were critics of each other and Biden was a McCain supporter???!!!

:sarcasm:

They're having a wee bit of trouble figuring out what to do, aren't they?

[PatSeg]

18. Aha, good one!

But everyone knows the republicans can have it both ways.

[Arnold Judas Rimmer]

17. Too bad they aren't

We might motivate that 50% of the eligible voting population that usually stays home, and BURY the Repukes so deep that their friends in the oil companies couldn't find them with a drill.

[knixphan]

19. 'most liberal'?

Oh I wasn't aware that the ticket was changed to Kucinich-Sanders...
