Super Tuesday: All the Hype Money Can Buy

February 5, 2008

UPDATE: I found this little diddy by Brandon Barker about John Mellencamp telling John McCain to stop using his songs at campaign rallies.  Watch the David Hassellfhoff video, “Looking For Freedom”.  This is a hilarious post!

Isn’t Super Tuesday exciting?

This morning on Fox News I got to see Barack Obama, Ann Coulter, Nancy Pelosi, and Mike Huckabee all interviewed within the course of an hour or two. I was in and out, so who knows what other political celebrities showed up?

I was also excited to learn that with all the drama playing out on the political field, Pennsylvania’s April primary might actually matter. Who’ve thunk it?

You can talk politics with your real friends, so I’ve been doing just that with my friend, Patti Gibbons. Even though we are on opposite sides of the aisle, ideologically our beliefs are very much in line with one another. She told me that she noticed Joe Lieberman at McCain’s California campaign rally with Gov. Schwarzenegger. Could there be a McCain/Leiberman ticket in the making? Patti said it would “drive conservatives up the wall”. But what if it was a McCain/Obama/Lieberman ticket? It would never happen (because you can’t have three guys on one ticket), but it’s my political dream…

Amy’s Political Dream Team hard at work. Look, their ties are even color-coordinated.

But I could definitely dig a McCain/Lieberman ticket.

Props to Patti for finding this picture and making the Liberman observation. Look at those clashing ties…I love it.

Or a McCain/Obama ticket…

Stranger things have happened, right?

Though I’m still undecided, I have positioned myself like this, “Not Hillary” and “Not Romney”. Patti told me her official position, too, “No combination involving anyone named Clinton.” Here, here!

Ann Coulter’s recent support of Romney (article) and her radical statement about Hillary versus McCain has led me to lean more towards McCain, Huckabee, and Obama.

Last week on “Hannity & Colmes” Ann Coulter dramatically declared that she would rather vote on Hillary’s campaign than vote for John McCain if he becomes the Republican Party’s presidential nominee (full interview transcription). Coulter said, “I will campaign for her (Hillary McCain) if it’s McCain.”

I used to find Ann Coulter amusing; now I just find her annoying, snobby, and fanatical. But she is highly intelligent and she’s got great hair (maybe she could do some ads for Pantene). Maybe she’s trying to dissuade Democrats from voting for Hillary, because I doubt Republicans care for who she campaigns. Well, I guess some care because they do buy her books.

I sort of want to see McCain go up against Clinton, just to see if Ann Coulter keeps her word. Remember when Alec Baldwin was going to move out of the country if Bush became President? Idle threats with little action
