Who wants to bet on Edwards as the veep candidate?

Anyone? Anyone want to bet against me?

I'm willing to hear a more probable name. You probably know one.

Although, I'm actually more worried who McCain'll pick - as he is white, male, and "experienced," I'm sure he'll get it in November. Neither Huckabee nor Leiberman look very attractive.

(No offense taken whatsoever - I understand the difference.)

As far as I'm concerned, the Military Commissions Act was the fucking Rubicon - anyone who voted for it is dead to me, politically. I would sooner move to France than vote for Lieberman or any of his ilk - I find the lot of them objectionable in a multitude of other ways, but that ... that was and will always remain unforgivable.

Oh, good. Believe me, not everyone realizes the difference. Most people don't seem to.

And, no previous democracy has lasted more than a couple of centuries, either ... *shrug* People forget why they have the chief principles in place that were PUT in place at one time.
