Comments on: Obama/Webb ’08? http://scrutinyhooligans.us/2008/05/14/obamawebb-08/ If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen. — Samuel Adams Fri, 10 Feb 2012 17:18:32 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Gordon Smith http://scrutinyhooligans.us/2008/05/14/obamawebb-08/comment-page-1/#comment-20545 Gordon Smith Thu, 15 May 2008 01:42:41 +0000 http://www.scrutinyhooligans.us/?p=5430#comment-20545 Oh, only 19? All the same, it's the next-to-last nail in the coffin. The last one comes next Tuesday. Oh, only 19?

All the same, it’s the next-to-last nail in the coffin. The last one comes next Tuesday.

How many are there, 19? Not sure that math closes the deal. I think it is safe, but wouldn’t count on 100% taking the leap. How many are there, 19? Not sure that math closes the deal.

There are a couple downsides to to Webb. In eight years, he will be 70...too old for <strike>anyone</strike> a Democrat to run for President. Also, would we lose that Senate seat to a repugnican? I don't know if it would be up to a special election or governor appointment. But, like McGarry to Santos, Webb would bring in plenty of foriegn policy heft to the ticket.
