RSSDemocratic Candidtaes Choose Theme Songs for Democratic National Committee’s winter meeting
So all of the Democratic candidates chose two theme songs, one that blared as they approached the stage and another that played as they left the podium. The chose the following:
John Edwards: “This Is Our Country” by John Mellencamp.
Actually candidate Edwards, our country is much different that they one you are accustomed to. Your country can be seen below.

Sen. Chris Dodd of Connecticut: “Get Ready (Cause Here I Come)” by the Temptations and “Reach Out,” also by the Temptations. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York: “Right Here, Right Now,” by Jesus Jones and “Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet” by Bachman-Turner Overdrive.
Hillary first thought that she would use “Climb Every Mountain” until advisors reminded her of that whole Sir Edmund Hillary fiasco. Hillary then thought she would use a Tammy Wynette song, until once again advisors quickly reminded her of her ill-fated Tammy Wynette and baking cookies comment.
Rep. Dennis Kucinich of Ohio: “America the Beautiful”
We are thinking that maybe “Smeagol’s/Gollum’s Theme” from The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. After all … both are after the prescious.
Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois decided against using any music in keeping with the somber tone he sought to convey. Wesley Clark, who hasn’t indicated whether he will run, entered to Johnny Cash’s “I Won’t Back Down.”
I think we can do a much better job of picking more appropriate theme songs. Give your own versions as to what you thing they should have used.
UPDATE: We like the choice of “Tears of a Clown” for Joe Biden

Hillary Clinton would use the theme song from the 1989 John Cusack movie, “Say Anything“.
Hillary Rotten Clinton – The Bitch is Back. Sir Elton.
Joe Biden – I’m a Loser. Beatles. Ironic how these British musicians seem to know American Democrats so well. LOL
John Edwards – ‘Look at me Im Sandra Dee’ Grease Sound Track – Olivia Newton John.
Barack ‘The Clean’ Obama ‘You can find me in the TUB’ 49 cent.
roflmfao, why did the word “incorrigible” keep popping up in my mind while i read the above?

if kerry changes his mind and tries again, he can do “m-i-c-k-e-y m-o-u-s-e.

dennisintn – if Kerry did that, all of the Dems would have to go on TV and explain to us iggerant folk what he really meant.
How about “Somewhere over the rainbow”?
By the way, I think NO candidate should be allowed to hijack works like “America the Beautiful” for a partisan political campaign. Neither Democrats nor Republicans.
Can you imagine someone profaning “The Battle Hymn of the Republic” for something crass like a politician’s “vote for me” campaign?
Money/Pink Floyd Edwards
Stand by your man/ Tammy Wynette Hillary
Nice Dress Man/zztop Barak
Are you joking that she chose this song from an all Canadian band?
You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet – Bachman-Turner Overdrive
I met a devil woman, she took my heart away
She said I had it comin’ to me, but I wanted it that way
I think that any love is good lovin’
And so I took what I could get, mmm
Oooh, oooh, she looked at me with big brown eyes
And said
You ain’t seen nothin’ yet
B-B-B-Baby, you just ain’t seen nothin’ yet
Here’s something that you never gonna forget
B-B-B-Baby, you just ain’t seen nothin’ yet
And now I’m feelin’ better, ’cause I found out for sure
She took me to her doctor and he told me of a cure
He said that any love is good love
So I took what I could get, yes, I took what I could get
Oooh, and she looked at me with big brown eyes
And said
You ain’t seen nothin’ yet
B-B-B-Baby, you just ain’t seen nothin’ yet
Here’s something, here’s something that you’re never gonna forget
B-B-B-Baby, you just ain’t seen nothin’ yet
You need educated…
Hey, Leslie, we love Canada last I heard, lol!!
For Hillary, that would be good. Also
These Boots Are Made for Walking to all the taxpayers.
