Just spotted this on the website for Independent Television News:
Hillary Clinton has hinted she might team up with Barack Obama to take on John McCain in the US presidential elections.

The former First Lady acknowledged for the first time the two rivals might wind up on the same ticket as presidential and vice presidential candidates.

"That may be where this is headed, but we have to decide who is on the top of the ticket," Mrs Clinton said.

1. NEVER!!!!!
Obama should tell Clinton to take her "dream ticket" and shove it up her you know what. Clinton CANNOT win, its mathematically impossible. Its over Hillary, leave while you have a shred of dignity left.

8. I found this on another board
I agreed with it and thought I would post it here.

I think that taking the #2 ribbon after winning more delegates and getting more votes is a pretty poor prize, but he's willing to sell out for the "Second Best", which I would think would infuriate African-Americans. However, they are so used to taking whatever the Dems hand out, they'll go along to get along.

I can't imagine Michelle Obama going along with whatever muck the Clinton team dishes out to her and her husband. There is no way Obama will get to be a powerful Veep like Cheney, not with Bill around 24/7.

Isn't it rather degrading in a human, not racial or sexist but human, way to be insulted by such a ruthless in such degrading ways and then after to be her #2?

10. But who says he has to take the second spot?
If he doesn't agree, he won't...

Simple as that...

And it could be that Obama won't be interested in the proposal at all...

Time will tell!

11. He doesn't have the knowledge to be a powerful VP but
serving under Hillary would prepare him for President. As for now he just doesn't have it.
