Right now Clinton/Obama but with his popularity on the rise and hers falling don't be surprised at a reversal of that in the not too distant future.

Clinton/Obama
I like Mr. Obama but I don't think he has the experience nor the "grit" to be president - yet. A coupla terms as VP and he will be ready.
Ms. Clinton has everything it takes...she is brilliant, has been an activist all her life, has been a political presence since before she met Bill. She is a no-nonsense, take no prisoners person and will serve our country well. She also has Bill by her side and he was a great president and is a compassionate, smart man with the knowledge and skills that can help restore our country from the corrupt liars and war mongering idiots that have sunk us so low.

Probably Clinton /Obama.
Of two things I am sure. Obama is going to be looked at as weak as far as experience and too much of out of touch with reality. The biggest issue he faces is that he is black. There are still a lot of racist in this country and if you don't think race play's into it, you aren't in touch either. I don't care who he is. Even if he were Dr. Martin Luther King he would have an uphill fight and you aren't going to get much, if any support from "I hate everyone but people like me" Republicans !
Clinton comes in with some baggage, and I am sure that many men will find a reason not to vote for her, though the real reason is that she is a female.
Clinton is a thouroghbred that can hold her own against anyone. She is smart, well educated and has tons of experience in almost every field. She know's almost every leader in this country and has a positive world recognition and is liked. It also helps she knows, and get's along with, more leaders than Bush ever did, either one of them, though I view HW as a far better president than his son!
It doesn't matter who the Republicans put up! They have no shot at winning, and that is the real plus for the Democrats, who aren't all liberal as the term Republicans love to use for Democrats. In fact few are that liberal. They are just amore fair and less fueled by one issue candidates.
Republicans are liberal as well. It is just my money they are liberal with! I guess it will hard for them to come in and run on a balanced budget platform after their 3 1/2 Trillion deficit which mainly went to the rich!

I would have to say Clinton/Obama, because of the Clinton name.
Looks like some people forgot to read the instructions about "disregard". Probably the same people that don't read what they are voting for!

Clinton/Obama but I would prefer her to choose a running mate other than Obama. I'm not impressed with Obama and I don't think he is offering us anything new or improved. He's just a little more charismatic than Hillary but what substance does he offer?

Clinton/Obama, purely because of the experience factor. She's way more qualified and seems to have all her ducks in a row. He already showed his inexperience with that horrible answer in the debates when asked what he would do should we be attacked again. He seemed unsure of himself for the first third of the debate until he got his feet underneath him. He just doesn't have his issues blocked out with any specifics and that's a very bad thing, he needs to correct that.

"Many of you are well enough off that ... the tax cuts may have helped you. We're saying that for America to get back on track, we're probably going to cut that short and not give it to you. We're going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good." (Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton - June 28, 2004, in San Francisco at a Democrat Party fundraiser)
"I want to take those profits and put them into an alternative energy fund that will begin to fund alternative smart energy alternatives that will actually begin to move us toward the direction of independence." (Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton - February 2, 2007, at DNC Winter Meeting - regarding profits earned by oil companies, which are not [yet] owned by the government)
"As president I know I can't kill, jail or occupy every nation we don't agree with and I cannot just wish that all the terrorists be wiped off the face of the Earth" (Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton - February 10, 2007, at a campaign appearance in New Hampshire)

I am in the military and to have the dems back in power will be horrible for the US security, they will cut our budget back and wont invest in new technology and are soft on offense which is what has been keeping us from getting hit, if we let up even a little bad things will happen. This can all be found by a little research on the web. IE : b-1 bomber, b-2 steath bomber and alot of other stuff they voted against thast thankfully we got because of republicans who know how important a strong defense is !

Clinton/Obama, if for no other reason, then that Hells has experience in lying, and has had a husband who was the best of them. She has more experience in Congress, and politics. Obama has only two years in Congress, and votes party-line because he hasn't learned the qualities of lying, yet. My personal feelings are, however, that neither of them will get elected, because one is a woman, and one is black. I don't see America being ready to vote for either, yet. I guess we will see, but my vote goes to John McCain.
