I think the real nightmare ticket would be, Senator " Questionable Conduct " McCain and Senator Clinton, as his Vice-Presidential choice !! They would compliment each other and sling lies and innuendos at Senator Obama and his running mate. They both have histories of doing just that and I sincerely hope they would stop, but this is for the whole ball of wax. Lies and innuendos will be the order of the day and if history repeats itself, the Ridiculous Republicans will be out in full regatta, swift-boating every Veteran it can, along with other Democrats !! ! hope I am wrong, but we shall see !!
SUPPORT OUR TROOPS, BRING THEM HOME, ALIVE. NOW.
