It's going to be Biden! That should take the wind out of McBush's perceived authority on foreign policy and supposed lack of experience!

Good choice Barrack!

Obama/Biden '08!!!!

Biden's too old, egotistical, and long winded to get the exposure a VP will invariably get. Not a good match for a 'Change' candidate. I'll bet Biden has his speaking slot because of his party seniority, influence, and his Obama loyalty. He may get a position in Obama's cabinet, possibly Secretary of State?

Even Biden will not help Obama, because he would be the VP not the president, the buck stops with the President, and as arrogant as Obama is, he may not agree with Biden's advice on issues, which still leave the decisions in the hands of an empty suit.

I personally think that Barack is going to TOTALLY throw everyone for a loop and ask Colin Powell to be his Vice President. Talk about "walking the talk" of the CHANGE mantra - You heard it here first!

I think it will be Biden. Obama is leading on the economic issue. Biden would be a better choice.

He's also a GREAT debater.

Biden is very wise in foreign policy, very capable in debate, and an older white man, just the perfect conterpart to Obama.

Hey Suzanne in WA state, who better than Powell to validate BHO's assertions about the con BushCo ran on the American public (and media) in the run-up to the Iraq adventure.

I think he will shock us all and pick Hillary Clinton. The place will go wild and Democrats will be united. Bill Clinton will make the best speach of his life. People will remember the tax rates of the 1990s where the rich got richer, but paid a bit more than today and the annual deficit was gone.

Head up his Colin Powell would be a joke. He went along with this war. He started this war. He is a failure to the United States of America. He carried to much water for his master George W. Bush. His back is broken and his shame is apparent.

Biden is a great choice
OBAMA/BIDEN '08

My, my, Mike!!! Where's the love, eh??

I think Hillary would be a great choice, but what do you do with Bill??

Wesley Clark has pissed off too many folks.

I'm impressed with Chuck Hagel of Nebraska, or Colin Powell, for that matter. That poor man (Powell) got used and abused by Cheney, et al.

I just don't like (never have) Evan Bayh or Joe Biden either one. Just too many lobbyist connections with those two.

Bottom line is whomever is picked, I just hope he/she well help keep McBush out of the White House. That man scares the hell outta me.

Whoever it is, I hope it knocks the voters socks off.

I'm truly horrified at the thought of McCain getting the White House and a further continuation of current policies and approaches.

Dear Clinton Dem,

With the convention just around the corner, it is imperative that Democrats all around the country understand that whether or not Hillary is nominated, we are in this for the long haul.

This primary has revealed DNC "leadership" to be corrupt, mean-spirited, and lacking respect for basic democratic principles. They have completely and effectively ceded the moral high ground to Republicans at this point.

• We have seen the race card played, with assistance from both Dean and Brazile.

• We have seen rampant sexism with no objection by the DNC.

• We have seen the superdelegates endorse as quid-pro-quo for campaign contributions.

• We have seen arm-twisting of the congressional delegates by "neutral" Nancy Pelosi to declare for Obama.

• We have seen an unabashed ageism campaign against John McCain, calling him "confused", and that he has "lost his bearings".

• We've seen a softening of support for the gay and lesbian community.

• We've seen caucus cheating.

• We've seen intimidation of Hillary supporters, hack attacks and coordinated threats against voters and media that dare to dissent.

• We've seen manipulation of the party nominating system and media to favor one candidate over another and the outright redistribution of votes cast for one Hillary and given to Obama.

This is now a democratic party in name only.

Anyone who supported Hillary and now decides to vote for McCain based on what the "DNC did" blows my mind.

How can you possibly be self-righteous enough to let our country continue on this GOP path? Out of revenge?

How selfish can you be? It's not about Hillary's ambition...it's about the good of the country. Grow up. Please, your country needs you.

Vote for Obama

If Bayh gets the VP slot, then I will take that to mean Obama has reversed his previous position on medical marijuana. Bayh is a sworn enemy of medical marijuana. He wants every last patient in jail. If Obama picks Bayh, then it's a pretty good indicator that medical marijuana patients need to fear Obama. I won't even vote. Forget it. I won't vote for living in fear.

patricia, are you serious? you are going to not vote because of m.m.? there are a lot more serious things in the world to worry about. like war for instance, and a women right to choose. think a little bit. the fear you speak of is hardly confined to one issue.

Hey Kim - I was just going to say the same thing. There isn't a better choice that Obama could make for VP than Colin Powell.

He has so much respect on both sides of the political aisle and could greatly add to both the foreign policy and military experience of the ticket. It would gain so much support from both independents and republicans that it would make the whole PUMA/Hillary debate a total non-issue.

I also like Biden - think he's one of the better choices, but Powell would be an amazing statement and a phenomenal choice for VP.

Al Gore would be a cool choice if he would accept the offer.

I was a Biden supporter for president before he dropped out. He is an excellent speaker, knows foreign policy inside and out, and is a great debator. I would love to see him as VP but I think his role is going to be Secretary of State. I think it's going to be Hillary for VP. Obama has always stated that he was a proponent of the way Lincoln quieted the dissention in his party by selecting his rivals for positions in his cabinet. What better way to unite the party and give a huge boost coming out of the convention? I am not a big Hillary fan even though she is my senator in NY but I think this would be the best solution.
