Just saw his announcement.  Maybe it's for the best, at this point.
On Air America the other evening, Rachel Maddow proposed her ideal Democratic ticket:  Obama/Webb.  I like it.  Webb brings military and anti-Iraq credibility, and can assure the southern, White males that that uppity blank man will be closely watched.
I am truly disgusted at Bill Clinton's recent antics, trashing Obama.  If they feel this is necessary, they do not deserve our vote.  I say, no more Clintons and no more Bushes.  A pox on both houses.
Webb? Huh?

ReplyDeleteGreat credentials, name recognition (at least in Maryland, DC, and Virginia), and his record so far is not to shrink from truth-telling.
It was Rachel Maddow's notion, and I like it.
