It's not a deflection at all. If McCain's people think Hillary deserved the VP slot because she came in 2nd, then clearly he should follow the same selection standard that he thinks Obama should. Simple!

But if you want to strictly limit this to the thread title, the very premise is absurd.

There, that is on topic. The thread title is absurd!

Where is it said that they think she should be on the ticket because she came in "second"?

They only wanted to see her on the ticket because if she were, it would have been a slam dunk for the republican to win the presidency.

Reviewing previous posts might be warranted here.

It's a simple question Pex. If you are unable to show where they actually said that, just say so. We'll understand.

The McCain ad implied she should be on the ticket because she won millions of votes. Giuliani said essentially the same thing this morning on the This Week with George . . . show. Look it up. We'll understand if you can't be bothered to do any fact checking.

John McCain's campaign said Sunday that rival Barack Obama snubbed Hillary Rodham Clinton as a running mate because of her criticism of the Democratic presidential candidate, a claim the Obama campaign immediately dismissed.

A voiceover announcer says, "She won millions of votes but isn't on the ticket. Why? For speaking the truth."
Yup.

This implies that winning millions of votes means one should be on the ticket.

Good job Pex. You went from "McCain's people think Hillary deserved the VP slot because she came in 2nd" to "implying she should be on the ticket because she won millions of votes".

You're welcome. I hope things have been clarified for you. If it's still unclear, re-read this

If necessary, look up "imply" in a dictionary. I'd provide a link for you, but I want to encourage you to get in the habit doing some independent research.

Let me get this straight...just because she won millions of votes she should be VP...is this correct??? So Barack is supposed to take her as VP with former President Bill Clinton??? There would be so much tension between the three...it wouldn't be funny.
