May I be first to say...

Close, but no cigar.

Young Hilary. Didn't get the cigar, iyswim.

 

Hillary, ITYF. And she wasn't even close.

I always thought it was a feint. They decided a long time ago to be
running mates but ran against each other to a) whack up a huge media
storm (free publicity) and b) decide who gets the lead role. I mean,
FFS, it's the dream ticket, innit? A black and a woman.

McCain's going to win, I'm sad to say.

 

When the chips are down ...

 

heh, big brave Merkins tend to turn a bit yellow once they're inside a
polling booth.

 

Worryingly possible. Given that the ideal candidate is not on offer, I
suspect the merkins will prefer a president that might be
trigger-happy to one that might be trigger-reluctant.

 

you'll have to go for the hash browns instead.

 

It's got to be Arnie. If that nutter ever stands for Prez he's a dead
cert to be elected.

 

Not possible.
He was not born in the USA.

 

No shit? I'd never have guessed.

 

In message

Barak means "excrement" in Indonesian

.... and he grew up in Jakarta

 

I meant that he/she doesn't exist. But if I had to choose, probably
Jimmy Carter. I reckon the day the merkins picked Ronald Reagan over
him was the day they finally lost it.

 

Good idea. Bruce Springsteen for president!

 

Kewl, Tony Blair for president. I can't think of a nicer chap for the job
or more deserving country.

Sensible policies etc, etc...

What an interesting image...

But yep, McCain looks the most likely winner but.... he also doesn't
look likely to make a full term.

Sam Seaborn? Jed Bartlett? Rob McAllister?

 

<g> We watched "Galaxy Quest" earlier this week. If you've not seen
it, it's a nice little film about fantasy becoming reality. [1]

[1] In essence, has-been Star-Trek-type actors save real aliens.

 

Bad form and all that, but Dave Kovic is the other obvious choice.
