Your cynicism knows no bounds. BTW, one of those blind "answer the questions and we'll pick your favorite candidate sites" posted here awhile ago had me choosing -----
Alan Keyes.
But of course the DNC is absolutely pure and the republicans are absolutely tainted. I forgot.

J.C. Watts....is pals with Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh.
Sounds qualified to me.

I'm sure it's just coincidence that McCain's operatives are checking to see if anyone salutes after they run up a black flag. I'm sure it has nothing whatsoever to do with Obama's pending nomination.

Funny thing about those "pick your candidate sites", they don't do shit when it comes to quantifying a person's ability to function when in office. I've never had those surveys match the candidate I've been supporting ever.
But of course the DNC is absolutely pure and the republicans are absolutely tainted. I forgot.
You couldn't have forgotten because I never said that. My you do love playing the moral indignation card.

Anyone consider a split Republican/Democrat ticket with McCain getting Lieberman as his VP?

Can you imagine the right wingers getting behind that?
Besides, I'm sure Lieberman would settle for Ambassador to Israel.

Based on your political acuity and success in picking electable candidates ('sup Fred Thompson) I'd say JC's chances are about equal to the probability that Pickle will ever get laid by anybody who's either white or female.

I don't know if they will or won't pick him. I just think that he'd be a good choice. Not just as a ying to Obama's yang. If you hear him talk, he has some good ideas. However, to make it interesting, would you care to make a wager on it?

I was sort of hoping McCain would catch Lindsay Graham sniffing his ass crack and stomp the shit out of him, Guess that's out now?

JC Watts has too much personal baggage to be aired in a general election. Extra marital affairs, possible illegitimate children, lots of dirt on him from his time on the Oklahoma Corporation Commission concerning dealings with oil companies.

How do you figure? The most conservative member of Congress has been on his campaign for the duration and his state's chair of the finance committee for John McCain's run; Tom Coburn.

Because McCain is even remotely conservative, you fucking moron. Are you really that stupid and uninformed? Pull your head out of your ass. He's a complete fraud.
Since when does like mindedness decide a running mate in the presidential election? Sure the hell hasn't in my adult life time.

Shocking that one of Switzer's former players would have an ethical issue or 12.

The only set there I see that was all that like minded is Bush/Chenney and certainly not Gore/Lieberman.

No I've lived most of my life in Florida and North Carolina with short stops in other places (Texas, Arkansas, Pennsylvania, etc.). Just was in Oklahoma for college though much of my maternal family is from Oklahoma (Enid, Ada, and OKC). I grew up a military brat in my father's household so we did a great deal of moving.
I like JC,
a lot. Did he make a mistake? Probably (never been confirmed that he had an affair or has illegitimate children) but at the same time that reported mistake was well over 2 decades ago when he was still a very young man. Not like Clinton where it was an on going and habitual action.
Every Conservative should have to read
What Color is a Conservative: My Life and My Politics" by Watts. Very good and politically astute read.
JC has a lot of upside on a McCain ticket though as well. He is obviously a minority and is very adament about how the majority of the African American Communities outside of the urban centers are more in line with the Republican party than the democratic and just don't realize it. Like he didn't until college. He is an awesome orator in the lines of Reagan and Clinton. He is also a very intelligent guy overall.
He just has a lot of baggage unfortunatly.

Spoken like the clueless mouth piece that you are Bsmack. Switzer's biggest draw back in life was probably that he was too much of a humanitarian (and a DIE HARD Democrat who even has been on the campaign trail multiple times since 1988 in the state of Oklahoma for Congressional and Presidential elections
) and thought that he could and should help out every kid that crossed his path, football player or not.

So what if Switzer was/is a Democrat? Does this somehow change the fact that he ran a turd factory in Oklahoma?

He didn't run a turd factory. All that is ever brought up about Switzer were the bad apples and nobody ever acknoledges the lives he changed for the better which far outnumbered the bad apples in Norman. Most people also don't ever hear about the always forgiving and always helping out the bad apples even after trashing him such as Thompson. What about the success stories Switzer has had that nobody EVER speaks of? Spencer Tillman, JC Watts, Mike Gaddis, etc.

I just ordered it from B and N. Should get it soon. I look forward to reading. Am glad that the infidelities are in the past. Was worried that it was recent stuff. Something when he was younger is more understandable, I guess, than if he was still doing it.
What of his oil company dealings was questionable? Bad ethics will lose him my support faster than cheating twenty years ago. I'll do some of my own research on this, too.

Actually, he's not even remotely Republican. But he IS a total egotist, and chosing a VP to counteract his shortcomings wouldn't be out of the question.
He could pick somone as worthless as he is, but the fact that he's a narcissitic tool does'nt preclude him selecting someone who could actully get him votes.

I can't remember the details to be honest. What I can tell you is that the person who made the accusations was the one who landed in a Fed Penn and not JC.
