Obama VP List Down To Top 20

Posted by Brian Fairbanks

 

Rogue Iraqi Presidential candidate Barack Hussein Obama has whittled his list down to a whopping twenty infidels, just to throw us off the track.

Sen. Kent Conrad of North Dakota told CNN that some of those on the list are “top officials now,” others are “former lawmakers” and others are “former top military leaders.”

Let's see... Wesley Clark? Kathleen Sebelius? John Edwards? Those are our guesses. Speaking of Edwards, he is polling strong as a VP choice... and more importantly, helping the Obama brand:

Obama/Edwards [have] double-digit leads in states like New York, Missouri, Oregon, Washington, Wisconsin, Iowa, Ohio, Virginia, Pennsylvania, New Mexico, and California.  That could mean a landslide for Democrats in November, especially considering the competitive nature of national contests in Pennsylvania and Ohio in recent years.  But what's more interesting is that it also predicts considerable victories elsewhere, like [Republican Gov. Tim] Pawlenty's home state of Minnesota, where Obama/Edwards leads by 7 points.  And typically red states like Nebraska would also go to the Democrats in a squeaker. [Eyes on Obama]

Meanwhile, Obama's team will meet with the top female politician in the country. Wrong-- it's Nancy Pelosi. Sorry, Hillary, but don't fret-- you must be on that list, somewhere around #18 and #19...
