Had Hillary defeated Obama in the 2008 primaries and been elected president, the SAME EXACT PEOPLE whining about how Hillary would have been better, would now be whining about how Barack Obama should have beaten Hillary in the 2008 primaries and would have been a better president.

Fact.

Oh please, they'd be crying about how McCain should have been elected....or Romney.

Don't lump me in with the RWNJ's because I think Hillary would have been a better choice at the time.

Nah, they'd be smugly crowing about how VP Obama would make a great president in 2016.

I'm thinking Michelle Bachmann/Alex Jones would be a perfect ticket for the GOP in 2016. Thoughts?

Better make it Jones/Bachmann. Her gender isn't well accepted among "the base."

That may just be the perfect unifying ticket for the bigoted anti-gay whackjobs and the tin foil hat wearing conspiracy theory "survivalists". I don't think Alex running around the White House lawn naked, insisting Muslim nanobots infiltrated all his clothing would be the best thing for our prestige as a nation unfortunately

Is Michelle Bachman/Alex Jones ticket the only logical choice for the GOP in 2016?

If you mean in a Democrat's wet dream the answer is a resounding YES!

I'd send a nice donation for that ticket if the Repubs promise me that they'd make it to the general election.
