Huck and Chuck
Or
Huck and Paul
but the president candidate can do so much better than any of those picks
Huckabee and Paul they seem to have the same stance on most of the issues with the exception of the war.
McCain - Lieberman (but McCain won't win nomination)
Huckabee - Clinton (but Huckabee won't win nomination)
Giulani - (he won't get the nomination, no need to speculate)
Obama - Bloomberg (this is a possibility & vise versa)
Clinton - the Mayor of L. A. (who wants to destroy the U. S.)
Romney - Thompson (this is a possibility & vice versa)
I'd like to see Hillary pick Obama and Obama pick Hillary or Kerry. I hope Giulani, Huckabee and Romney don't get far enough along to pick a running mate. lieberman isn't a bad choice for McCain but I think he'd have better luck with someone younger and fresher, maybe even a woman if he goes up against Hillary.
None of those 6 would make a good president so there's no reason to advise them on a vice-president.
I agree with you on a few of those. McCain would do well with Lieberman because it would help with the independents. Romney and Fred Thompson would even each other out a little bit, because Thompson is so far right, and Romney isn't as conservative. Hmm…I think Hilary should choose Richardson, actually. Not only does he have the "experience" that everyone keeps harping on, but he also would transfer all of his supporters to her. I think Guilani should run with Bloomberg, since he's thinking about running anyway. I think Obama and Edwards would make a powerhouse team. And Huckabee….no clue. I think Romney only hurt his campaign since most of his supporters are evangelical Christians, that are skeptical of Mormons.
McCain should choose general Paetreus or Chuck Hagel
Huckabee should choose Rice or Colin Powell
Giuliani should pick Tancredo or Paetreus
Obama should pick Biden , Richardson or Wesley Clarke
Clinton should pick Wesley Clarke, Bob Graham or Richardson
Romney should pick Jeb Bush, Rice or Patreus
McCain- Probably would want to go with Huckabee. They've formed a sort of tag team against Romney, even if they don't agree on a lot of things. Lieberman might also work.
Huckabee- Might want to look into an expierienced Senate leader like Mitch McConnell.
Giulani- Agree with you about Condi, she'd be a quality, experienced VP.
Obama- Again, a Senate or House leader who knows what their doing would make sense- Pelosi or Reid.
Clinton- Probably someone with youth, to offset the "experience" thing. Another option would be to go for Wesley Clark from the first Clinton White House.
Romney- Possibly Kerry Healy, from his stint in Massachusets. Another option would be to go for someone from the Heartland, like a Thompson.
Of course this is completely hard to predict. The McCain- Huckabee tag team could start to unravel, McConnell and other mainstream GOP people could turn on Huckabee, Condi might go back to a security position at the Pentagon, Obama might decide on another "change" guy, Clinton might pick someone else entirely, and Romney could lose in Michigan and not even have a shot at the nomination.
Hillary Clinton as President and Barack Obama as Vice President will be unbeatable in the US 2008 elections.
