P.U.M.A. founder Bill Bower wants a McCain/Clinton ticket
Says it " ... would be revolutionary ... as politically radical as F.D.R.-- It would be a true crack in the system, real change..."

This guy is at the convention speaking live with Hannity.



~snip~

But Ok... What's the goal, exactly? The main objective? Is it to get Clinton the nomination or to defeat Obama or...

Well the coalition is diverse. I can't speak for everyone. Some will certainly be voting for McCain and are advocating that route. Others will write-in Hillary. Some will vote for third party candidates. But all the groups are very much united in not voting for Obama. The diverse groups are getting along. The number one rule is that no P.U.M.A. voter will cast a ballot for Obama, presently. If he has Hillary as vice president, well then each P.U.M.A. voter, of course, will make that decision.

Many, like myself, want to see a McCain-Clinton ticket, which would be as politically radical as F.D.R.-- It would be a true crack in the system, real change...

1. I don't imagine Senator Clinton has been consulted on that.
Seems he just wants his 15 minutes of suspect fame.

I wondered that myself, babylonsister
His logic just doesn't add up, now that I've listened to him. This is as much about him as it is Clinton or any other politician.

People are writing amazing fiction these days and calling it journalism.:eyes:


That is the most ridiculous thought placed into print that I have ever read. Clinton is a pure Democrat as is her husband, President William Clinton.................remember!
