A Possible Howard Dean - Wesley Clark Ticket?

[CatStarESP4]

I just don't see that ticket happening!

I respect Howard Dean. He is one of the few liberals who is not afraid to admit what he is. Howard Dean is a liberal. That makes him wrong on the issues and wrong for America... FLAME AWAY... LOL!

Are you serious?

I never understood why "liberal" has ever been seen as a dirty word in America. I'm happy to call myself a liberal, although even "liberals" like Dean aren't liberal enough for me.

I am serious. I admire Dean for standing by his liberal convictions, when so many pretend to be something that they are not. I don't agree with much of what he stands for (especially his health care and education policies), but I have no problem giving him a little admiration. I'm not here to flame Dean, I truly admire him.

I'm liberal too. Don't know "how" liberal though.

=Valkyrie is all about the woo woo.

I am probably too liberal for Dean as well, but I just can come to see myself giving my vote to lieberman. I mean that man wants to censor everything from music to television talk shows.

I also don't agree with the recent attacks Dean has received from his fellow Democrats.

I would prefer a ticket of Howard Dean and Wesley Willis. Yay America!

Here is what a neo-conservative said about the Oklahoma City bombing, albeit she is way out there:

"My only regret with Timothy McVeigh is he did not go to the New York Times Building." -Ann Coulter

I'm sure Wesley would have gone for it, but he died about two weeks ago.

I am one of those people who is probably too liberal for Dean. I'm holding any and all opinions on the election--other than the fact that I like Clark because he is a strong proponent of two of my pet interests--until the Green Party candidate comes out.

Ann Coulter can lick my boots. My only regret is that she wasn't in the Murrah Building. (take this tongue in cheek!)

If I was an American I'd vote on a ticket that included Clark... respect a lot of the observations and comments that he has made regarding foreign policy. He doesn't paint in the same black and white simple language as the Bush.... he seems to take a more even aproach and generally seems to be very intelligent when he is forced to defend his comments.

As the should the Ann Coulter quote. Bill Clinton probably said it best concerning these "tongue in cheek comments"....

"You know the one thing that's wrong with this country? Everyone gets a chance to have their fair say."
President Bill Clinton addressing the people of Philadelphia, May 28, 1993 in the Courtyard, City Hall, Philadelphia, PA. (Someone in the audience who disagreed voiced an opinion, and that was Clinton's response.)

Damn Bill of Rights!

Tongue in cheek of course!

Actually, I am political, but I doubt ticket will work or happen. Dean is too confident that he'll get the ticket, but it's too early to tell. I rather take a wait and see approach.

Ann has a history of doing this kind of stuff. But she also doesn't pay attention. Look at this statement she made:

"On the basis of their recent pronouncements, the position of the Democratic Party seems to be that Saddam Hussein (news - web sites) did not hit us on 9/11, but Halliburton did." -Ann Coulter

I thought it was Bin Laden, the CIA pretty much agreed that Hussein has nothing to do with 9/11

Edited to add: I read that Clark will anounced his intention sometime this week. Gonna be an interesting time.

So did Clinton... I have more, but why offend the liberal faction of GC.

Why do you always use Bill Clinton? I didn't support him. But if you want it that way.

I accept your debate for Bill Clinton vs. Ann Coulter. I'll start a new thread.

"Former NATO commander Wesley Clark today said he would decide soon about seeking the Democrat nomination for president, and would not take the No. 2 spot on the ticket - for now."

"There's only one decision to make: Run for president or stay in private business," he told CNN.


Good call, Mr. Clark.
