Names suitable for pairing?

sebeliusobamaIt’s the season to start assessing which names would best fit together not just politically but on the tongue and bumper sticker: McCain-Huckabee is sounding less cumbersome by the day. McCain-Pawlenty would take some getting used to. Clinton-Clark has a nice alliteration to it. One Salon reader had strong words for the prospect of a Obama-Sebelius pairing, though: “sounds like the name of an obscure newly discovered comet. Or a fungus.”

Just be glad that Schwarzenegger isn’t an option.

    Clinton – Cuomo would be a better fit.

    Obama – Richardson

    McCain – Huckabee

    Sh.it, matching names for Prez and Vice Prez is just as f**cking retarded as how great the Prez’s smile is (George Washington had wooden teeth). What a patronizong, condescending f**king blog topic. This is American brain power at its finest. I don’t need my poems to rhyme and I damned sure don’t equate greatness with how its name rolls off of my tongue. Safe to say that this topic rubs me the wrong way.

    Obama-your momma

    Insane-McCain

    Huckabee-Hound

    Have we all seen Obama’s campaign logo?

    Go find it and have a look. No room on there for a running mate. Probably an ego thing.
