If he doesn't pick her, he will lose. I'm voting for McCain, who is the only one who can get us out of the mess "W" got us into.<BR/><BR/>Murph the SurfAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25620415.post-73950966921420409332008-06-28T08:52:00.000-04:002008-06-28T08:52:00.000-04:00Tommy, Fan for years having your talents noticed b...Tommy, Fan for years having your talents noticed by my late mother, she loved your prose.<BR/><BR/>The only concern with your synopsis is the inherent bias in your logic. My meaning is your ability to divine Webb may be skewed by his seemingly genetic likeness to yourself and history. <BR/><BR/>Although I do agree. He would solidify Obama's weaknesses while providing some Foreign Policy muscle. <BR/><BR/>Having worked for the man twenty years ago, I can assure you, a very fine choice.

That's saying alot, since 'W' might be the worst we've ever had.<BR/><BR/>Webb would add credibility to an Obama ticket in many respects, but certainly not enough to warrant voting for someone who's only true attribute is that he's an awesome public speaker.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25620415.post-43393397056990113182008-06-09T23:39:00.000-04:002008-06-09T23:39:00.000-04:00I suggest it really isn't going to matter for I do...I suggest it really isn't going to matter for I don't think Mr. Obama need to worry about it since he isn't going to win.<BR/><BR/>Picking Webb...then between the two of them they will almost have one term in the Senate as a background to be elected. Brilliant.<BR/><BR/>I would suspect Obama will look to a Governor, or former Governor. If he is smart...Evan Bayh, current Senator and former Governor of a red state.

Nothing...Too bad Webb isn't the head of the ticket. Nothing against Obama. I actually like him. But he's so naive about the world. He thinks if we make nice everybody will make nice. He thinks if we withdraw from Iraq the world will be sweetness and light. He's a fool. One, we are now winning the Iraq and Arabs only respect strength. Two, China is arming to the teeth. Three, Russia is about to be a superpower again, and it will cause trouble. Four, Iran will have nuclear weapons and will likely use them against Israel or to blackmail the West into accepting sharia law. This is what Obama will have to deal with, and I fear that he is too weak and too beholding to the peace movement to stand up to our enemies. They will sense weakness and they will use it against us.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25620415.post-76693821397234400412008-06-04T12:35:00.000-04:002008-06-04T12:35:00.000-04:00Tommy...one of the best things about Charlotte are...Tommy...one of the best things about Charlotte are your columns, but it this case, lay off the Clinton bashing...I'd much prefer 8 years of Bill, than the miserable 8 years under "W".
