Questions: Could Hillary have unified the party in 2008?

I don't think there was a prayer of that happening. People liked Obama which was why he was able to unify the party. If Clinton is the nominee, I'd bet money there will be no unity

They thought that Clinton would get the women's vote because she was a woman. We see how right that turned out to be.......

Question: Does Obama want to be followed by a Republican? Does he really want Hillary to help define his legacy?
