OBAMA WILL SELECT CAROLINE KENNEDY!!!!

It will probably be her or the 20th Century equivalent of General George B. McClellan...Wesley Clark! He has to show us he's not tied to Washington...she's a soccer Mom whose experience is growing up in the nursery in the White House...she can get him settled in!

McCain needs Huckabee like Obama needs Clark

I Love speculating about the VP, I found a site that has alot of info on all the veep candidates with videos and petitions you can sign for or against potential vp candidates, I signed a petition to ask McCain not to pick Romney, and I signed one asking McCain to pick Huckabee. I also signed a petition to ask Obama to pick Clark, I might actually vote for Obama if Clark was on the ticket. Sweet site. You can go sign petition at http://www.TheVeep.com or you can sign it at http://www.veeppeek.com

VICE-PRESIDENTIAL

INSANE MC-CAIN WILL CHOOSE EITHER A PODHORETZ NEO-CON OR LEIBERMAN NEO-LIB, A NOTORIOUS CRYPTO-NEO-MARXIST TRAITOR; AND OBAMA WILL CHOOSE A LEADING KENNEDY LIBERAL PATRIOT.
