1. Why is this the new meme today? Last I checked Obama was leading in the next two states....
Why are we acting like the nomination is over?

The top one isn't John Edwards.

4. You're right: as VP, Hillary will really shine as Barack's attack dog.
:evilgrin:

7. No one wants a return to the sleaze and triangulation of the Clinton years
The better ticket is Edwards with Barbara Boxer.

10. Somehow, I don't think this will happen.
But then I didn't think Raygun would pick Bush either.

I could see Obama/Edwards. Or Clinton/Richardson. Or Clinton/Clark.

13. And if both agreed to it.....could we (partisans) handle it?

Much to think about here.

14. This is the new tactic to marginalize Obama. He's running, and after this week winning...
the race for President.

15. I don't think it's a tactic. He will be our nominee, bro.
He'll win on Saturday and then in SC, and after that Super Tuesday will be his.

Still, I personally can't help to think that both Clinton and Obama are powerhouses on their own right.

19. Then there is no reason to start casting him as VP to anybody....
Its backwards and unproductive if you are supporting his Presidential run.

16. That would be the Republican's dream ticket.
It won't happen, but if it did it would be a dream come true for Karl Rove. It would make his job so easy. Your thinking that this duo could win a presidential election aptly demonstrates why the Democrats lose. They can't effectively analyze the country's political landscape.

18. Dream On
I can't belive that will happen.

Obama won't pick her for his Veep and I don't think he would accept if he was picked as V.P.

He would do better if he let her lose the general so he can run again i 2012.

23. It's possible. They both have significant constituencies and would likely
Edited on Tue Jan-15-08 07:11 AM by Old Crusoe
carry a bunch of states adding up to electoral college victory.

I favor:

o John Edwards/Max Cleland, John Edwards/Bill Bradley, John Edwards/Kathleen Sebelius;

o Obama/Biden; Obama/Napolitano;

o Kucinich/Moyers;

o Biden/Richardson;

o (if it's Sen. Clinton who wins nom) Clinton/Feingold -- because we should also consider
the 8 years after the first next 8 for 16 years of Democratic White Houses and court appointments;

and

o Gore/Feingold if we have a tangled convention fight and need a brokered ticket.
