No matter who is picked as VP choice...
I imagine at LEAST 10-15% of people here will bitch about it...

-and all that wasted effort and bitching will amount to zilch :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Although, it may bring a little satisfaction to the attention getters ( look at me! look at me! somebody replied to my post!!! )

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

1. I hope that we are smarter than that.
I hope that we won't provide the Corporate media with talking points on how to trash Obama's pick.

I really don't want us to sabotage the election. I really don't.

4. You know, I didn't think the corporate whores read sites like this..
but since yesterday I'm thinking some of their "Internet" reporters do once in a while

I actually saw a segment yesterday where they reported on the phenomenon of "rick rolling"

:rofl: :rofl:

2. It will be a process. Some people feel passionately about their beliefs as to
who would be the best VP. If that doesn't happen, there's bound to be disappointment and hollering. It'll work itself out, then we'll all get on board.

With the exception of a few who have said that the VP choice would be a deal breaker. Adios!

5. Anyone who believes their judgement on this is better than Obama's is...
... a self-aggrandizing jackass. People think so highly of their own opinions based on fractions of bits of information.

Whoever he chooses I will support... even Hillary. Even Bayh. Even Hagel.

9. Well many of us ARE self-aggrandizing jackasses.
We're smarter than ANYONE else. :eyes:

I'm on it, no matter who he chooses. Ha! Even Hagel, too!

3. God I hope not.
Bitching won't change anything and will only hurt us in the media.

Once he chooses his VP we have to welcome them with open arms, regardless of who.. Bayh, Hillary, Hagel, whoever. We need a united front.

This isn't about them. This is about us and getting our nominee to victory.

6. We should all bitch if
the VP candidate is a repuke. How will you feel voting for a repuke heading our ticket in 2016?

8. I dread the day Obama picks his VP...
these forums are gonna be filled with "Why did he pick ____?" "I'm so glad he picked__________!" "Why_____ is the best choice!" kind of threads.
