Clark touts Sebelius as VP

sebeliusAnother sign that the Clinton campaign is coming to an end: Former Gen. Wesley Clark, a Clinton loyalist, introduced Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius at an event Monday, reportedly saying, “The London oddsmakers say that Kathleen Sebelius is the odds-on favorite to be the next vice president. I can tell you, she’d make a great vice presidential choice.”

Clark knows that Sebelius is being considered as Obama’s running mate, not Clinton’s. His remarks also seem to discount the possibility of an Obama-Clinton ticket.

    Gore-Sebelius?

    Would explain her coal stand.

    Would balance the ticket with a Gov.

    Would balance the ticket for Hillary fans.

    Obama? He will soon fade under the scrutiny. If the Dems are lucky. Else he fades after august as the nominee, and the Dems lose it all.

    Clark himself would be a better pick. Sebelius isn’t quite ready for the national stage and should go after Brownback’s seat when he retires in 2010.

    (Sam promised he’d retire, remember?)

    The old gray mare isn’t suited for National Office. Her personality on the campaign trail is like a dry piece of toast.

    Well Obama strategized to lose in the fall.

    Chatty Kathy could only help in that. Losing I mean?

    She destroyed any chance she had for national office with her State of the Union “rebuttal”.

    Embarrassing.

    There are several picks better than Sebelius. Webb. Richardson. Clark.

    I think what Obama really needs is someone with military/foreign policy credentials.

    I agree Ben, there are MANY picks better than governor “leadership”. If she’s chosen, it’s a clear pander to the “women’s” vote.

    Once again, like women are only supporting Hillary because she’s a woman. uh, no, most of us support her because we really believe she is the best candidate to beat mcsame.

    If he picks governor leadership, it’ll be seen for what it is. Pandering. Just like mclurkin and caldwell.

    To misquote the late, great Harvey Korman, pandering for obama is the “voo doo that you doo so well”.

    Republicans are starting to see the writing on the wall; they are going to get creamed in November. Their utter failure of leadership is finally coming home to roost. Bush II is arguably the worst president in US history, and anyone who supported him will be banished to political extinction. Good riddance.

    I hope that Obama chooses Sebelius as his running mate so that the national press like the WSJ’s Laura Meckler will be forced to report that the corrupt bipartisan government officials & judges in the Topeka & Wichita federal & state courts and the local and state government agencies are even more arrogant, greedy & stupid worse than their counterparts in Chicago & Springfield Ill. Democrat Governor Kathleen Sebelius can easily be portrayed as an even bigger skank than former GOP Attorney General Carla Stovall who is a business partner in the Dodge City casino project with former Mayor Bob Knight & abortionist attorney, Steve Joseph.
    The Eagle & GOP US Attorney Eric Melgren refuse to investigate the corruption in Wichita including Rachel Pirner’s involvement in suborning perjury & forgery to seal land from Todd Wait to be resold at a discount to the owner of the local strip joint. Last week KAKE news director told me that he will be leaving KAKE and that I will have someone else new to complain to. According to Todd KAKE’s investigative reporter, Jeff Golamoski, & the Eagle’s Dion Leffler, had Todd’s evidence before & after Judge Doug Roth falsely imprisoned Todd for criminal contempt of court. Stan Hazlett at the Office of Attorney Discipline and the commission on Judicial Qualifications have recently exonerated Judges Corrigan, Friedel, Vining & Roth and attorneys Pirner, John Rapp, Steve Manke. I guess they don’t want any negative publicity to hurt Doug Roth or Sean Corrigan McAulty’s chances of being elected to district court judge. Too bad Carrie Rengers at the Eagle or Meckler at the WSJ are unwilling to contact Jeff who now works for a national outdoor billboard lobby in DC. It might take all of 5 minutes to break this scandal, but unfortunately no knows where the story could possibly lead. The publishers at the Eagle & the Wall Street Journal want to be in control of everything. They maintain power by selectively reporting stories to the benefit or detriment of targeted elected officials & candidates.
    There is no such thing as a free press in America anymore. Everything in Kansas is about spin & propaganda. Thank God we still have the right of free speech on this blog in Wichita even though citizens do not have the constitutional rights of due process and equal protection under the law. The state & federal court system in Kansas have been corrupted mainly due to the nepotism & elitism of people like politicians like Kathleen Sebelius & Senate Judiciary Chairman John Vrtil and their spouse or ex-spouse Federal Judges Gary Sebelius & Kathleen Vrtil and pimp journalists like Randy Brown, Ron Sylvester & Dave Grant & their prominent attorney wives who have received accolades from the Kansas Bar Association. Everything in Kansas is about propaganda & spin.

    It can’t work, they need someone from a state with more electoral votes, so the hot granny governor will have to be content where she is at.

    Bill, I just hope you got all that poison out of your system because I think it was, or is, affecting you thought processes. Is it because our Govenor is a woman or a Democrat that you harbor such hate. It almost sound that you have problems with women.

    Seek professional help.
