2016 Postmortem
Showing Original Post only (View all)Should Hillary run Joseph Leiberman for Vice-President if she captures the nomination? [View all]
Leiberman was Al Gore's running mate and certainly helped Gore to get dozens of conservative votes for the Democratic presidential ticket.
Leiberman would help boost Clinton's conservative credentials and enable her to win over more conservative Republicans and the youth vote.
Of course, she might decide to go with a liberal vice-president like Sanders or Warren.
Hard to say.
Try saying it. "Clintoncanoe and Sanders too!"
Catchy slogan! Sounds a bit like the old Tippacanoe and Tyler campaign chant.

OP
I agree. That's why I posted his "the Revolution continues" speech. Did you like it?

"And, I believe, no humor was intended by it" So you thought Leiberman was a serious proposal!!!

I believe Leiberman was a DINO like many leading Democratic politicians today.

In what part of his speech did Bernie indicate "telling us all how much we suck"?
