      Well, that would be a great ticket....to avoid. There is something to be said about putting all your rotten eggs in one basket. Let's see, how about Rush for Secretary of State, and Billo for Attorney General, and Hannity for Chief of Staff.

        And don't forget Ann Coulter, she has to fit in there somewhere... Homeland Security Czarina, perhaps?

          She actually has a law degree, maybe she could be AG and Billo could have Treasury, instead. And we can give Retchin' Gretchen Health and Human Services, and Kill-me for Education, because that boy is as dumb as a rock.

      My cynical side says "Knock yourself out", but part of me entertains this sick feeling that the same country which elected G.W. Bush twice might be stupid enough to elect these two Troglodyte nutbags.

      Yeesh. What a nightmare scenario.

            NICE!! I love how that email talking about bush's IQ being the lowest of any president resulted in such cries against it. Then, they actually did a study to compare president's IQs and bush somehow came in second to last. I dont know who was in last. But I bet they have a better presidency ranking than he does right now

      I'd love to see Glenn's personal life history ooze into the media. I doubt that even Uncle Rupert could contain all of the slime.

      DRAFT PALIN and BECK 2012

      Best ticket i can think of. I've seen a couple of land slides in my lifetime, but never dreamed I would see an 80/20 election.

      In the immortal words of George Bush, BRING IT ON

      Even beyond Palin's pathetic record in Alaska and her obnoxious stupidity, what really hurt about Palin was that she personified so much of what conservatives were saying about Obama; no experience, uses teleprompters, is worshipped as an idol or "rock star" in the cult of personality. That dynamic not only doesn't change, but it gets worse for Palin in 2012. She quit. If she had stayed on in Alaska, then she would at least be keeping up in the effort to gain experience, while Obama is moving ahead in his role as President. Staying in the spotlight without having any governmental duties just makes her more of a "rock star". It wasn't dumb enough that they undermined their own attacks against Obama once, they're going to go out of their way to do it again?

      As for Beck, I would look forward to throwing every criticism of Al Franken as a non-serious candidate right back in the face of conservatives. He was on SNL, he's a comedian. Right, and Beck was a shock jock and now calls himself a rodeo clown. Beck talks about the issues every day. And so did Franken on his radio show. When you flood the dialogue with all of the ridiculous and inflammatory comments Beck has made, there's only so much slack the public is going to give him. Hating the 9/11 widows, not believing in the separation of church and state, etc. The breaking point between "he was probably just kidding" and "this man is a nut" will come around pretty quickly. I'm trying to imagine the epic smackdown of Biden quoting Jefferson in their debate, showing how we never intended to mix religion and government. What's Beck trained to do, besides make a crack about Biden's age? "Did ya talk to him personally? Hyuck hyuck"

      Palin's resignation only makes her choice of VP more relevant. She has no argument as to why she wouldn't want to become a "lame duck" as President any more than she would as Governor. So that leaves us with the notion of her stepping down two years into her term and leaving the rodeo clown in charge. The wingnuts can cheer this on as much as they like, but even moderate Republicans aren't going to buy this one. If Palin has any shot at all, it's with a highly-experienced and well-respected Republican on the ticket, and I'm not sure how many of those people really want to associate themselves with her at this point.
