It would certainly bring a balance about, no where does it state that the VP must be inline with the President politically. The vice hs no power except what the pres gives him as none sat daily in the senate presiding. It would be a better choice than what we are usually given

John McCain / John Edwards would be a formidable ticket.
But I have to stay I was very disappointed in how McCain caved into the White House on the torture issue. What a shame.

Third party candidates never win in the US, even high profile ones such Teddy Roosevelt, William Jennings Bryan, John Anderson, Ross Perot and Ralph Nader. Modern campaigning takes even more money than it did a few years ago, and there's no way a third party candidate can compete with the money raising power of the RNC and DNC.
Republicans would like to lure disenchanted voters to third parties, in order to dilute the Democrat vote. In fact, where there are close races, the Republican Party has been known to contribute to third party candidates. This strategy has given them several victories at the polls.

I am a Democrat, if the Democrats put another loser like the last time up for election, I would never vote for Hilary Clinton, if she runs as a candidate for President or Vice President, I would vote for Senator MC Cain in a New York minute. He is one of the good guys. I will become an Independent by the next election, both parties have real stinkers in them.

I don't know how much of a chance it would have, but I'd definitely vote for McCain (I'm a registered Democrat). Edwards doesn't matter one way or the other.

Maybe. But I wouldn't vote for them. Edwards is too liberal and McCain doesn't know whether he wants to be Republican or Democrat so how can we trust him to make the right decisions when he is placed under pressure. And McCain seems to often swayed but public opinion to me.

Not a chance. Give McCain a better running mate and he might have a chance.

I would not vote for John Edwards, whose main accomplishment in life has been to sue the obstreticians in his home state into leaving for less hostile ones, for ANY government position. He is the absolute bottom of the political grease trap scrapings. In Congress he was nicknamed Senator No-Show for his frequent absences. He is the worst example of a politician I can think of.

It would probably win. There are 20% of the electorate who is sick of the two party system. And the longer the Foley case draws out the more disenchanted voters get with both the Democrats and Republicans.
