QUOTE (Texsox @ May 23, 2008 -> 09:13 AM) I see the allure, but I have serious reservations about Obama picking Clinton as a VP candidate. Likewise. The GOP would have a field day running ads of Clinton saying "he just had a speech" and "McCain has the experience". Also goes against the grain with regards to his whole "change" campaign.

Obama to Deliver Major Latin America Foreign Policy Address I look forward to hearing this. The status quo has done nothing for Cubans in the last few decades.

QUOTE (Texsox @ May 23, 2008 -> 07:59 AM) There are a couple reasons I could see waiting. They may want more info on who each candidate is considering for VP. Maybe I just didn't pay much attention in the past but since when do candidates announce VPs before becoming the nominee?

QUOTE (Texsox @ May 23, 2008 -> 08:25 AM) If they were bound to just follow the popular vote, they wouldn't need super delegates. I guess I'm not sure what the wait is for. Is it so the 2 remaining minuscule states (population-wise) could be heard? Or Puerto Rico who's doesn't even vote in November? Most of the uncommitted superdelegates are from states that already voted. I would think they would make some sort of decision based on their local electorate.

I'm guilty of being a liberal, Starbucks' drinking, Prius driving, elitist...minus the Prius. I typically buy Starbucks whole beans and grind them at home. Occasionally I'll buy fair trade beans from South America or Africa.

I'm expecting Obama to wear a T-Shirt today that reads the following: "I won the majority of pledged delegates earlier this week and all I got was these 2 stinkin' superdelegates." Nice to see the spineless Dems continue to sit on their hands.

QUOTE (Texsox @ May 22, 2008 -> 05:46 PM) I'm wondering whose IOUs are worse, the ones that come with debt or the ones that come attached to donations Seeing that Obama's donations are primarily of the $100 variety I'm not seeing what the issue is.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 22, 2008 -> 03:47 PM) Tesla's roadster costs $153,000. In Europe. Costs about $100k here. The sedan is supposed to be in the $50 - $70K range. Their 3rd line will be around $30K. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_Motors

I wonder what an Obama/Clinton ticket would produce in these polls.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ May 21, 2008 -> 11:12 PM) The Spurs blow a 20 point 3rd quarter lead and lose game 1 at LA. If they lose this series in 6 or 7, there is why. they really have no one that can stop Kobe.

Poor Natalie. Mrs Garrett blowing her away.

Obama campaign begins Veep search

If I recall correctly this was a spin-off of Different Strokes. Kimberly attended the school for a while or something.

QUOTE (Alpha Dog @ May 22, 2008 -> 07:48 AM) Just in case you can't read, this is the PRO HILLARY thread. You have enough threads around here bowing too your messiah. I thought it was borderline regarding which thread to put it in. Thanks for the added snark.

Here's something for you Hillary supporters to think about this November. It's from a well-written blog...

I picked Tootie but it was a close race between her and Jo.

QUOTE (juddling @ May 21, 2008 -> 02:47 PM) I remember back in the day....seeing the poster of Heather Thomas (in the pink bikini) from the Fall Guy and feeling all tingly........ .....sad thing is...IIRC she didn't not age well at all. I was definitely more into Heather Thomas back in the day. I'm pretty sure I had that poster up in my bedroom as a young lad.

QUOTE (juddling @ May 21, 2008 -> 03:22 PM) maybe Ted can hop on down to Cuba with Mikey Moore and get some of that great Cuban healthcare I've been hearing so much about......
