for your party, who would it be? Anyone currently eligible to be elected president in 2008. Choose on any grounds you like, electibility....looks.....height.....core beliefs....anything...
I hear a lot complaining from both sides about their choices....so who would you like to see if you could choose?
I think the Republicans could do worse than Kay Bailey Hutchison.
clay1 (216.124.166.76) from ILLINOIS says if only...
If only Jenna Bush was old enough to run.
PJzaBruin #10908 from CALIFORNIA says My choice would be Bill Richardson
the man I voted for.
Executive experience as a Governor, federal experience as a cabinet member, fairly moderate.
So... what was your basis for Hutchison?
Bro #13310 from FLORIDA says ah hell.. just like chris moneymaker says..
find me someone who shoots like Dick Cheney and drives like Ted Kennedy.. and I'm all in..
CoonAss (68.212.49.32) from LOUISIANA says If it's gotta be...
a chick, a black dude, or a moderate...I guess she would do...at least better than the three choices now.
My man is off limits till he finishes the job here in Louisiana......
Jindal in 2016!
Starboard from TEXAS says Interesting question, Coonie.
In thinking about it, interesting how it changes if you would have said "If you could pick a President," rather than nominee. That little getting elected thing sure has a way of playing like Wack-a-Mole.
PJzaBruin #10908 from CALIFORNIA says No choice, Starby?
Stubby still can't answer a question, I see.
Starboard from TEXAS says LOL Now there is a big difference between us, Shorty.
You are sure you have all the answers. When you are not ducking the questions, of course. And, I usually have plenty of questions.
Alas, I can't expect you to understand the distinction.
PJzaBruin #10908 from CALIFORNIA says Still can't answer, eh Stubby?
Just wondering, Stubby -- why would someone pick differently for a candidate than they would for President?
That is what you're implying, isn't it?
Would you really pick a nominee for your party who you didn't think would be a good President?
Starboard from TEXAS says Geez, Pj. I have always known you were obtuse, but damn.
Let me try and explain it to you. Here goes. I can think of several people who would be good Presidents, but for one reason or another, have no chance of being elected. Which is a shame for the country; but it is particularly indicative of what we have become.
If you need me to explain it further for you, Shorty, just ask.
PJzaBruin #10908 from CALIFORNIA says That actually makes a certain amount of sense, Stubby...
but you can't name one you would like to see as your party's nominee?
Interesting.
Starboard from TEXAS says I could do that, Shorty,
but, obviously, I choose not to. Live with it.
