We may see an Obama/Hillary ticket. The question is which would be the Presidential/Vice Presidential candidate. My gut feeling is that Hillary would be the Pres candidate on that ticket, strictly because of experience. It would be interesting to say the least. The only Republican who has a chance to win the 2008 election is John McCain, at least right now.

Obama does offer an interesting concept. I don't think he has enough experience, but perhaps I am overly concerned about that. George W Bush did not have a lot of experience either and he was able to bring in some very talented people like Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, and Powell and get the job done. Obama seems to be a centrist and appeals to a lot of people. Of course we may find out more that changes that current impression.
Hillary represents a backward look of the world. She did a lousy job the first time she ran things and her negatives are way too strong. If half the people in the country hate her, it is hard to see her every being elected. Just because New Yorkers are easy to fool does not mean the rest of the country will fall for her form of political divisiveness.
I am guessing that there will be other candidates that rise to the top. Who would have thought that John Kerry or Howard Dean could ever be taken seriously. The voters had to choose from a lot of dogs to narrow it down to Kerry this time or Gore last time. I believe that there is a good Democrat out there who will come forward and be electable. I can't image the Democrats allowing Hillary to be their choice and thereby lose the Whitehouse again.

Hillary CLinton needs to withdraw or not enter the race for presidency of the U.S. I am not saying she would make a bad President. She might be the best President we ever had. I can't predict the future. Many GOP'ers think they can, but they can't.
The problem with Hillary is that the Republicans hate her. Ask the majority of Repubs. to give you 5 reasons why she is so bad, and 9 out of 10 times you won't get more than one reason. and that is usually because she is a Clinton. If they have two reasons listed , the second one is it is because she is Hillary. A third might be that she is a liberal. Of course all three are stupid answers.
There is not one single Republican in America that would vote for Hillary. That means 4 more years of GOP and this country desperately needs and deserves a change.
Vote for a change in '06' and '08'.

I question their electability, although Obama may surprise us. With Warren gone, it is very hard to see who can challenge Hillary.
The other likely suspects at the moment are Al Gore and Edwards. Somebody will step up to be the "not Hillary" candidate, and they will attract a lot of money. That person might be Obama, or it might be someone barely on our radar right now.
If Obama runs, I think he can beat Hillary. He just comes across much better.

I would like to see senator Joe Biden and Barak Obama. That would be an awesome ticket with Hillary as head fund raiser she and Bill are very good at that.

Obama is a much better choice than Hillary. They are both liked my almost all on the left, but Obama is liked by more on the right. In addition, this country is not ready for a female President. If our country was in a more steady state (i.e. no war or nuclear proliferation problems) then a female President would be more than welcome.

How about this. We actually elect someone that has the interest of the American people in mind. Instead we vote names and parties. Hillary wanted to get into to politics so bad she moved just to get a vote. Why wouldn't the people of Arkansas elect her? Or was it that Arkansas didn't seem like a place the American people would pick a Presidential hopeful from? What about Kansas? Could we get a little known lawyer from Kansas Elected into the White House?

Not Hillary. I cringe when I think of it. Obama is interesting. I don't know enough about him but I plan on paying closer attention to what he has to say.
