Obama/Biden!!!! a truly magic combo

Edwards -- AG or Katrina Czar

Sen. Clinton -- Senate Majority Leader or Supreme Court

As much as I like Biden, you just never know what he's going to say--he seems like a real verbal time bomb.

Jim Webb's name has floated. He'd be a hell of a campaigner--remember his response to the state of the union. All the military credibility you could ask for, and could make a big difference in Virginia.

Obama doesn't need help in California--there's no way that state goes for McCain.

Obama/Powell this will knock McCain out for good. It would also shut up alot of the GOP wing nuts. Also Edwards needs to be Att Gen. so he can take out big oil and heath ins companies

Richardson is going to be on anyone's short list. Great resume and a truly likable guy. Just not a great candidate - which really surprised me. But still a help in the Southwest not much of a minus anywhere else.

Has anyone thought that the reason Edwards hasn't agreed to back Obama is because he realizes that Obama ha not won the states he needs to win to show himself competitive to the Rebuplicans in the GE? Edwards doesn't want to loose again.... He's going to be with CLINTON any day now....

You don't become Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff if you're "in the military to collect a retirement check". He didn't quit cause the going got rough, he couldn't take the lies.

Along with Richardson in the Southwest, how about Janet Napolitano? I'm not from the part of the country, but I've never heard anything bad about her, and it seems as though she's pretty widely respected.

I'm still thinking Mark Warner.

I suppose someone has to say it - I'm not sure Obama would pick another African-American. Though Powell would be a dramatic choice, for all sorts of reasons, I'm guessing it probably won't happen, also for all sorts of reasons.

The idea of a Republican on a unity ticket is intriguing. How about Christine Todd Whitman or Chuck Hagel?

Obama should remind John Edwards of his rallying cry in 2004: "Hope is on the way".

Great choices abound! An Obama administration will likely not limit themselves to the obvious ones.

Obama should be mindful that a VP candidate that is significantly older (even one with exceptional credentials) juxtaposed to him may draw attention to Obama's relative youth, and allow the GOP to lead a debate of distraction... a debate on "inexperience" rather than on substance & issues. I hope I am wrong.

As far as possibles: Lee Hamilton, as Sec of State? Edwards would be a fine AG. Richardson would be a welcome relief in almost any position (though maybe not so much as VP) that allows him to interact with the public and media. He could put an approachable, sensible "face" on any administration. And Hillary Clinton could do quite well in a Cabinet position or Sec of State.

It's all good.

Paul, I think you're right. I also think for a similar reason, he won't pick Richardson. Most likely to be a white-male...although Kathleen Sebelius is a possibility. I'm an Obama supporter, at least I have been since Biden dropped out. I think Biden would make the perfect compliment VP...although I can see the negative in taking 2 Dem Senators out of Congress...however I'd imagine Dems would be favored to take both spots back.

I would vote for Obama/Edwards in a heartbeat because of Edwards.

Obama/Edwards does seem a bit like putting the cart before the horse. Edwards /Obama would have been much stronger and well balanced. It also would have enabled Obama to get some much needed experience to add to his glowing oratory.

Wesley Clark is backing Hillary so forget that ticket...

She probably told him he would be her Secretary of Defense...

Obama has no chance to be nominated. His game will be over soon.

Obama/whoever =loser

Some people really have time on their hands... lol

Common people we all barely jumped on the ride... It will be very presumptuos of Dems to be thinking that they will win come Nov.

So far Obama has not failed to deliver, so I think his choice for VP will be a refreshing one even though Obama/Edwards or Obama/Clark are very tempting as optons...

I am die-heart democrat and i will never ever vote for Barack Hussein Obama. By the way he will not nominated, people started know him slowly, it is unfortunate media hide his dirty laundry but now its coming out.

...one last thing. I would like to remind EVERYONE that we no longer live in an isolationist bubble. We live during the era of Globalization. We often don't pay attention, as Americans, to the way the rest of the world views us nor do we give attention to their reaction towards our leadership role in the world because most Americans do not travel outside of the U.S. (or even have a passport!) nor do they tune into world news (such as BBC World News). In response to this posting:
"Obama should be mindful that a VP candidate that is significantly older (even one with exceptional credentials) juxtaposed to him may draw attention to Obama's relative youth, and allow the GOP to lead a debate of distraction... a debate on "inexperience" rather than on substance & issues."
The rest of the world cares very little about this very myopic, election season, purely "strategic" viewpoint, (and it makes little sense because a ticket is a ticket regardless of who is the president). The "World" would most likely welcome a young, unifying leader, and by choosing a candidate of color, “We the People” can attempt to reverse the current downward spiral caused by the Bush administration and show that one of the greatest errors of the American legacy -- that being the treatment of African-Americans (the second: the treatment of Native Americans) -- is finally starting to be overcome. We need to do some serious reputation rebuilding and came back from these disastrous eight years a stronger, hopefully less racist (although judging from some postings all over the blogosphere -- we have a long way to go!) more unified country with a thoughtful and courageous young leader who has the support of politicians of all ages and ethnicities.
Next time around: a woman (just hopefully not one who has been such a divisive figure on the American political landscape for so many years -- albeit an intelligent and accomplished one).
If Obama wins the election -- Clinton should pursued Clark to run with him because it will be good for their party and good for the country; if they are really serious about challenging John McCain in November, I think Clark is their man for V.P. – a Moderate/Centrist with an impressive military background and a unifying presence.

It is may and Obama has all but wrapped up the democratic nomination. He has shown some weakness with the white working class and senior voters. John Edwards is a clear choice to rectify that weakness and strengthen the democratic ticket. He has strong followings by both labor and senior voters. In a year where the election is going to be about the economy and war, Edwards is a great choice for VP!

It will be a ticket of Obama/Edwards and they will kill McCain in the November General Election.
