McKinney/Clemente '08

The Green Party has it's ticket set for the fall. Former Georgia Congresswoman and somewhat controversial figure Cynthia McKinney and Rosa Clemente, hip-hop artist and activist will be their ticket of choice.

Georgia is having a pretty good election I'd say. 2 Presidential candidates (Bob Barr for the Libertarians and now Cynthia McKinney for the Greens) and talk of a Vice-Presidential Candidate in Former Senator Sam Nunn (for Obama) and I'd say this is Georgia's year. Not sure what kind of effect McKinney could have in Georgia, if any- but she might have some, especially if the Far Left's satisfaction with Obama continues to deteriorate. Plus, as the only all-woman ticket running, she might have some appeal for disaffected Clinton supporters as well.

Here's a write-up on Rosa Clemente, and Cynthia McKinney's Wiki Entry.
