Yes, because Hillary is the only populous democrat...

If Obama truly needs a populous running mate to win iffy states he should get someone with much less bad press and infamous dishonesty.

I think it would be great. Imagine the black voter turnout with Barack and 60% of the population consists of women. If the country is 20% black then add another 10% of the population (black men) that would identify with this ticket. That makes 70% of the population with something in common with one or both of them. With 2 white men running on a ticket you've only got all the white people that have that common thread. I love how the Republicans are counting on the conflict between the Democratic candidates to help their side improve its chances and just a few weeks ago there were Fox News anchors saying they would rather vote for Hilary than McCain. I enjoy the fact that the GOP has ended up with a candidate with such liberal tendencies that they hate him but it's his ability to separate himself from his party that makes him a viable candidate to get elected. No matter who the next president is, we are all winners the day President Cheney and VP Bush step down.

You are living in an alternate reality. Eventhough we have progressed a lot as a country in the past decade there is no way the US is going to elect a female and an African American as a President/VP. Plus there's no way they could just do a complete 180 and join forces after they've talked so much trash about each other for the past year.

Join forces and America will prosper once again. Republicans have shown repetitiveness when they are president, the run our country into the ground killing our economy and trying to kill us. Slowly we are dying off in a war with no meaning and I think that Hillary and Obama can together create a solution that all would benefit from. The republicans are not that strong with the voters anymore so let the Democrats join and create a force that can't be reckoned with.

Do I think they should? YES! Do I think they will? NO! Hillary's ego is too big to play 2nd string. That woman operates on a "All or nothing" philosophy.

It is the only way for a Democrat to win. This is because they will get all the democrat votes.

There is no way that Obama can win alone.

There is too much bad blood between them, they would never be able to coexist. Plus, I think that either of them needs a moderate white male as a running mate, as I really think many voters are not ready to have a woman or an African-American as our next President. The moderate VP would need to appeal to these voters to help swing the election to the Democrats favor. Having these two on the same ticket could push away these critical swing votes.

They need to stay at each others necks as long as possible to keep the bad blood flowing with the democrats. If hilary had dropped out, obama might stand a chance, but now, people aren't going to listen as much to him, there'll be more muckraking. If they were running together, they'd be completely unelectable, but apart, they're ripping the democrat party apart, which makes the republicans even stronger.

I am So Ready For A Change In The Way Government Works (or not). I don't see Senator Clinton as instituting much change - she is a political animal of the "status quo".
Senator Obama gives me hope that a change is possible. I could vote for him. I don't think that I could vote for Clinton.

Wonder how many times Obama's leash would be yanked in a Clinton-Obama White House!
