Clinton-Obama Or Obama-Clinton
Whomever finishes first and second at the end of the primary season should be pres and vice-pres...I don't think either likes one another much but neither did Eisenhower and Nixon, Kennedy and Johnson, and Reagan and Bush Pere...

1. It would be Clinton/Lieberman. Maybe she'll call up Zell Miller and see if he's free.

12. I'll take a loss and keep my honor knowing I don't support a pro-war, pro-corporate, lobbyist lover.

15. Not even close. She'll wed up with PNAC/WINEP soon enough.
She's more AIPAC supportive than American supportive.

22. I have Googled. Edwards was the least receptive of the three and seems to more support peace talks.
which is why I posted several days ago I was switching support from Kucinich to Edwards as Edwards at least has a shot at getting the nomination. Plus, Edwards is the one supporting workers more than any other candidate.

Obama wants to increase the size of the military. Say what?!

That's more likely
Or an empty suit like Bayh or Vilsack. She doesn't think she needs a VP -- she's got Bill.

17. If Theyt Finish One And Two There Would Be Too Much Bad Blood If Either Was Denied A Place On The
Ticket...

I'm not saying it's the most balanced ticket... It's actually radical... A white woman and an African American man but they would have earned it...

13. Now THAT might be inevitable!
I'd rather see Edwards as VP to either of them... better balance methinks.

18. Neither Edwards nor Obama would take the second slot w/her
That's the problem -- she's got an ego problem that doesn't bode well for getting along with the rest of the field.

24. It's rare for a VP and Prez to like each other anyway...
That's probably a good thing! Look what happens when they are too close! ew!

21. Actually Edwards as an Attorney General would be good or better yet,
love to see the corps shaking in their boots with him as AG.

27. Neither.
He doesn't belong in a Clinton administration, and she doesn't belong in an Obama administration.

She should pick Evan Bayh or Wes Clark, and he should go back to become governor of Illinois.
