Shot In The Dark: What If Napoleon Had a B-52 at Waterloo?

What If Napoleon Had a B-52 at Waterloo?

Via Memeorandum, we see that a Kerry-McCain ticket is polling waaaay better than Bush/Cheney.

Note to CBS, and to the usual pack of liberal bloggers: I bet a Kerry/Christ ticket would do well, too.

Some of the usual suspects trot out the idea of a Kerry/Edwards ticket, waving poll numbers in our faces that would seem to lend the notion credence.

Do try to understand this, Democrats: people love "what-ifs". A Kerry/Edwards ticket has no negatives - yet. A Kerry/McCain ticket has no negatives (yet), and is a lot like saying "Yeah - and if I, Mitch Berg, can knock 20 seconds off my time in the 100 yard dash, I'm going to the Olympics!"

Actually, I think a couple of A-10 Warthogs at Waterloo might have been more effective.

I hope no one is seriously considering giving a B-52 system to a french guy.

I've heard that the potential of a John F. Kennedy/Abraham Lincoln ticket is generating a similar degree of crossover appeal, as is the rumor of a seemingly far-fetched, but hotly debated Godzilla/King Kong ticket.

I guess we'll see.

As is par for the course with Kerry, Christ would get second billing.
