Geraldine Ferraro Shouldn't Step Down

We should all have expected the republicans to play the name-game; what I’m referring to is Bill Cunningham (no relation to Billy Cunningham) and Steve King (no relation to Stephen King) deriding Barack Obama because of his middle name. But the remarks coming from the Clinton camp? Well, when former President Bill Clinton discounts South Carolina because Jesse Jackson had previously won that state, when Hillary says John McCain is ready to be Commander-in-Chief but Obama isn’t, when Mark Penn equates Obama to Ken Starr, and when former vice-presidential nominee Geraldine Ferraro says if Barack weren’t black nobody would be voting for him, I think it’s time we all took a breather.
At this moment, Barack Obama has won the popular vote, the most states and the most delegates. Any other candidate opposing him would have given up the challenge, but Hillary isn’t just any other candidate. She has gone from inevitable to probable to even-money to underdog to spoiler. If she keeps it up, she’ll go down in history as one of the most destructive-to-the-democratic-party candidates since George Wallace. (I’m not that old, but I study History!)
So I don’t want Geraldine Ferraro to step aside - at this point, it would be too little too late. There’s only one way we democrats can hang on to our slim chances of winning in November, and that’s for Hillary to quit the race - immediately.

So my wordpress blog about the possibility of Hillary and Barack being on the same ticket got your attention huh?

Well she did recently ask him to be her Vice Presidental running mate, and they did hint at it during the Hollywood debate.

Before we were born JFK and Lyndon Johnson were bitter rivals and of course they ended up on the same ticket and won the election.

When you were a baby and I was 10 years old, Ronald Reagan and Bush 41(the father not the son)were rivals and the ran together and stayed together for eight years then Bush 41(the father)ran ini 1988 and won.

See don't say it is not possible. Don't say it cannot be planned. After all we are talking about politics.
Those two could be weeding out the racist and sexist of the party to bring a new beginning to the party.

After all G.W.(the son and by the way as a Texan I praise the Dixie Chicks for what they said.)place two black people in the position on secretary of state and Colin Powell was asked to be G.W's running mate.

This has angered the Democrats. After all aren't they the party that is supposed to do that?

They need to do something to win. Just think about it.

By the way I am an independent.

Oh also--you are very sexy and intelligent. Let's keep debating.
