for president, Barack Obama. If Hillary wins the nomination, do you think she will have the courage to pick a black man as her running mate?
How about that? Hillary/Obama 2008. Democrats, could you win with this ticket?

My guess is that she will pick someone guararteed to overshadow her. Obama doesn't fit that requirement. I doubt if Hillary can win the presidency because she is so polarizing.

If Hilary were to win the nomination, you can believe one thing. She and her people will do exhaustive research through focus groups to find out who, as VP, would give her the best shot at winning the general election, period.
There is little interest from the Clinton camp regarding reconciliation or anything else. For instance, if focus groups show her that white senior citizens are less likely to vote for her with a black VP, he can forget it. The democrats know that the blacks will vote democrat pretty much no matter what or at least they will not vote republican.

I still dont think Hillary will get the DNC nomination. Hillary is to polarizing, people love her or hate her. Half of the nation despises her with passion. Maybe Im wrong but I think Democrats would be shooting themselves in the foot if they put Hillary as their front runner.

It will be interesting to see what John Edwards has to say about that. As far as the ticket, Hillary will chose Obama only if it helps her to win the general election.

I think a Hillary/anyone ticket will be a tough road... winable... but no easy win...
I think Obama would have a better chance... as would many of other candidates in a national election... in my opinion...

But, John Edwards is going to "End All Bad Things by 2011". Shouldn't Democrats vote for him?

I don't see this happening. They could win though, since it seems like every Republican hopeful's staff is cohorting with prostitutes lately. I see Edwards winning the nomination, anyway.

No!!!!! She hasn't.
You are not involved in politics, nor do you know much about Hillary.
The Clintons have always been BACK STABBERS!!
Hillary despises both the Muslim Obama & the "Breck Girl" Edwards.
You people need to study Politicians a little. Don't just Trust them.
