Hillary Talks Up the 'Dream Ticket'

Clinton+Obama is not the perfect ticket... but it would probably work out ok.

Neither candidate wants to be second fiddle to the other... I dont think its a good fit.

Hillary would do much better nationally with John Edwards.

I couldn't expect more from the Clintons!
She can dream on if she thinks this BS of hers will work! Obama will do well on Super Tuesday, and get a load of superdelegates be4 Feb. 9
Obama has already indicated that he would NOT run as her VP, and neither will she.

A woman is likely to run as Obama's VP, but it won't be Hillary. It would probably be a governor...

Yes it's true, Clinton would need Obama to win. But it's not going to happen. Why should Obama Al Gore himself? Bill is Hillary's running mate. There isn't any more room in the kitchen. And as Martin Edwin Andersen ably pointed out, Obama is calling for better behavior in politics than the Clintons are accustomed to.

Whoever has been lured by Obama, does not have that much control of his/her mind! or is just a male chauvinist! or just could not stand the success of the Clintons that they are endorsing Obama just to stop the Clintons! Too bad that the Clintons are very gifted people and we're lucky that they are devoting their lives to public service.

That's what I've been saying for the last month.. A CLINTON/OBAMA ticket would be unbeatable.. She is the best choice to be President, and he would get all the experience needed to take over after 8 years.. Start the CHANT!!! CLINTON&OBAMA IN 09.. The heck with all the bull dung that the Republican's are saying.. Even their "Saint" Ann Colter said that she'd vote for Hillary, over McCain..

Let's not forget John Edwards as a shot for the Vice Presidency! John Edwards didn't get as much media coverage as he should have! He's got passion and a clear vision of what this country needs too! I think he would be an excellent choice for another chance as the Vice Presidency. Whatever the configuration, we need to BEAT the Republicans in November and I believe we will do it!!!!

Does Hillary have her customary "secret poll numbers" that tell her she's losing?

She's behaving like a desperate woman who will try anything to stop a tidal wave...

A ticket combining Obama and Clinton would not be credible because one calls us to higher ground and the other offers a siren call from the swamp.

A speech given by President John F. Kennedy is perhaps the best refutation of the Clinton approach to politics, and an endorsement of the Obama magic...

"When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses."

America is tired of the arrogance, corruption and lack of that elusive thing called grace that characterized Bill Clinton's "co-presidency" with Hillary.

Or, to put it another way, as the ancient Romans said: "When Cicero had finished speaking, the people said, 'How well he spoke,' but when Demosthenes had finished speaking, the people said, 'Let us march.'"

America is on the move again.

Hillary would make a great persident- a strong leader that handles the issues. Obama would make a great VP, gain some seasoning, and be ready to lead in the future. His media-hyped campaign does not impress those of us who are interested in the real work of government. A VP position would test him, and, hopefully, prepare him for the presidency in years to come.

Hillary said last night on Nightline that she can 'control' Bill. Perhaps she should let it out that she would pick Bill as VP. He would be a better choice than Obama, because, as South Carolina showed, she cannot control Barak......good thing, that.

Clinton-anybody but Obama. He will try to undermine her just like LBJ did with JFK.

Personally, I would prefer someone more like Harold Ford as Hillary's VP or Edwards.

I question Obama's judgement in saying that as President you have to be right on day one. There are going to be issues where he will have to make a judgement call with little or no time, and given that he has failed to vote yes or no on many issues that are not that complicated, I doubt he is qualified. He even abstained from voting on the Iran issue. He said he couldn't make it, yet there are measures in place allowing the Senator to make up the very same vote. You cannot claim to stand for something, yet not be involved in making a decision even when you have the power to do so. Therefore, to say that you have to be right on day one, that in and of itself makes Obama unelectable as Commander in Chief.

Everyone knows enough about Hillary now. Those who would vote for her in primaries have an ability to overlook glaring, unchangeable, disqualifying-type faults in a human being and play up any little attribute as huge. I know a woman friend who always picks abusive mates. She will gloss over the guy's criminal background, drug use, physical abuse, and psychopathic behavior and talk up the few times he is nice to her....it's like saying, 'he beats me, he steals from his family, he kicks dogs......but he helped a little old lady across the street last Thursday'. That is how cowed and blind Hillary voters are. There is no more logic to a Hillary vote. I'm sorry to be blunt, but a Hillary voter is not a thinking, reasoning person. It's a woman who will vote for a woman because it's their genders' 'turn'--or it's an uninformed troll who will buy anything that a huckster tries to sell them. If you are a Hillary supporter you have my disrespect. Obama would be an idiot---and he is not---to accept a birthday party invitation by Hillary--let alone an invite to join her doomed ticket, should Democrats be self-destructive enough to nominate her.

Democratic Presidential Ticket 2008 !!!

Clinton - Obama Democratic Presidential
ticket!!!! Hillary can mop up bush's mess for the next 8 years, while Obama is gaining experience as VP and will be the Democratic Heir Apparent in 2016 for another 8 years !!
The Dream Team: Clinton - Obama 2008

Well, she knows that she has the most to gain from that now. She is calculating and conniving as witnessed in her open mike mistake during the debates in the early part of the campaign. I don't trust her at all. God help us.

There is no question that should Sen. Clinton win the nomination that she will ask Sen. Obama to be her running mate. As I mentioned before, I strongly believe that the party split was intentional and calculated to force Sen. Obama to either accept the VP nomination or turn it down and be the scape goat for the failure to unify the party AND should the Democrats lose in the general election. Sen. Clinton has no prayer of winning in the general election WITHOUT Sen. Obama as her running mate. It's not even a guarantee that the "dream ticket" will win.

Should Sen. Obama win the nomination, he doesn't need Sen. Clinton as his running mate. I believe he will ask her, but she will likely turn it down. Her ego is just too much to accept second best...she has had that all her life! My guess would be that Sen. Obama will select Gov. Bill Richardson as his running mate.

See - this is where US politics are wrong, and have been wrong for decades.

It's all about personalities in races like these, not the damn issues and politics!

I mean, what on earth is WRONG with you people?!

You join a political party and then, suddenly, you dismiss half of that party's ideology and dream up some of your own?

It's maddening. If Obama wins the nomination, suddenly the Democratic party will be known as ruled by the 'Obama Democrats'. And if Hillary wins, it will suddenly be known as the 'Hillary Democrats'.

How can one person hijack a party's ideology? Even worse: how can an entire party depend on an individual leader to give the party an identity and platform?

It's like a fairground, a cattle exchange. It's sickening. Believe in a political ideal, or stay home, I say.

Fantasy Ticket is right.

I guess that's the risk you take when you pull a needy woman's seat out for her more than once: she could get the wrong idea.

As i said before in your last entry regarding the debate, only two people will benefit from the so-called dream ticket- Hillary and Bill.

So, of course the Clinton campaign will try to ride on Obama's coattail to the primaries by suggesting he would compromise his political future for her benefit. Serving in the senate would make more sense than being her running mate.

He has presidential qualities and credentials, then he should run for president-- not VP.
