McCain's Spiritual Guide? -- Hillary's Lost Pres and VP slot now

Questions for Senator McCain and Senator Clinton.

Senator McCain, why did you call Reverend Parsley your "Spiritual Guide"?  I have you on video saying just that.  
Parsley has been reported as saying America should "destroy" Islam.

The media reported yesterday that you have now rejected Hagee and Parsley's endorsements and words.  You attacked Barack Obama by saying your relationships with these men was nothing compared to Obama's relationship with his Rev. Wright.  

If Parsley is your SPIRITAL GUIDE -- I think that makes it VERY clear how 'close' you are to the man.  It's too bad the media doesn't jump on that part of this story.

Hillary Clinton, the reason you gave reporters for staying in this primary race is because your are concerned that something 'awful' could happen to Barack Obama in June -- or worse, somebody could 'kill' him like they did Robert Kennedy.  Did you ever stop to think that by simply walking away awhile ago, that 'if' God Forbid, something did happen to Obama or his campaign, that the Party would 'still' be able to ask you to step into the position?  You didn't 'have' to stay in the race.  People would still vote at the upcoming primaries.  Making it sound as though you would be our hero on the side lines, is plain ludicrous.

You are implying that if you had gotten out, the Party would be without a nominee.  You are wrong.  At one point, say two or three weeks ago, the Party would have simply asked that you run in his place.  That won't happen now.

Why you might ask?  Because if something 'does' happen now, like the famous Vince Foster story, you will be accused of being somehow connected to Obama's problem or death.  The Party will not want a tainted candidate.  I'm assuming that John Edwards, Al Gore or some other leader will be offered the position instead.

Hillary, you've blown your own plan/dreams of ever being President.  To top it off, you've blown any chance of being Obama's VP selection.

Go home Hillary, it's over.

Re: How convenient! (none / 0)

yep BHO started the rumors about her begging to be his VP then seized on this and sent his heroic 101St Keyboardists (The Raging Loons) to spark his base and make sure he is the 'victim' again so he had an excuse.

yeah I guess that would save Obama from stealing the election against the popular vote like his political idol George W Bush.

Well, as I was under a rock yesterday.... (none / 0)

... I missed the RFK comment.  I do not think that is what she meant by the way... I think she was positing that primary seasons tend to run long... she definitely could have phrased it better, but there has been a lot of "could have been phrased better" on both sides.

As for McCain, I find it interesting that CNN covered his campaign distancing himself from both pastors at length...  It will be discussed again ad nauseum tomorrow on Sunday tv. I think the media's love affair with McCain may be running a bit thin... Add to that the prospect of Bob Barr running as a third party candidate and McCain gets more beatable every day...


Like the nominee, don't like the nominee... Our nominee is still better than John McCain...

Cut the popular vote crap.

Caucus votes do not equate to primary votes. Obama won 10/11 caucuses.

The Michigan primary did not reflect the will of Michigan voters and only a cheat would say that they did.


We shall overcome. Yes we can.
