Clark considering Hillary as VP?
Advertisements [?]
if he is seriously doing this then I could be worried to the point where I'd solidly back whoever was beating him (almost certainly Dean). I don't have any problems with a woman VP, but as far as I'm concerned Lyndon LaRouche would be a better VP pick than Hillary.

the reasons:

1-for whatever unknown reason, she is still extremely polarizing to the extreme right wingers, and those pissed off at Bush over things like his immigration program and the Medicare bill will turn out to vote for him just to vote against Hillary.
2-We'd lose her Senate seat
3-She'd bring up the Clinton scandal nonsense all over again and the media will focus so much on that we can't effectively attack Bush.
4-It'd just add more to the accusations he's a puppet of the Clintons.
5-She'd be breaking her pledge.
6-She wouldn't add anything to the ticket. What state would she help us win?

Even though I find Mary Landrieu far too moderate, if he wants a woman VP I'd reccomend her over Hillary any day.
