The Co-Chairs of University of Iowa Students for Hillary have just sent out a Facebook message imploring the group’s members to vote for John McCain
but then they jump the rails:
or, if that’s too hard to stomach, presumptive Green Party nominee Cynthia McKinney.
McCain or McKinney? I’m having trouble wrapping my brain around this one. Or is the point “anybody but Obama”?
The letter attacks the media, Obama campaign workers in Iowa, and Obama, and claims Obama didn’t actually win the nomination but was “appointed by the Rules and Bylaws Committee of the DNC.”
“John McCain is an honorable man,” the letter states. “He is good personal friends with Hillary Clinton. He is qualified to be president. We do not agree with him on everything, and this is why we urge you to strongly support Democrats up for re-election to congress.”
“Barring a DREAM TICKET scenario or a scenario in which HILLARY WINS THE NOMINATION, which we see as unlikely at this time, we endorse John McCain for President,” it continues. “We will not campaign for John McCain, but we will vote for him, and urge others to do the same.”
Okay. I guess.

The Green Party must really be confused and desperate. After watching Cynthia McKinney’s behavior, hitting the Capitol Hill police officer, in 2006, I couldn’t imagine her running for dog catcher. Why would anybody in their right mind elect McKinney to anything … let alone the Presidency of the United States?
