If Hilary were to choose Warner, then what happens to Obama's supporters. Would they vote for a Hilary and Warner ticket as Novak has indicated is possible? -----mj

"Clinton backers see Warner -- not Obama -- as best V.P. choice
August 19, 2007
BY ROBERT NOVAK Sun-Times Columnist

Anticipating that Sen. Hillary Clinton will clinch the Democratic presidential nomination, some supporters are beginning to argue against her choosing her principal rival -- Sen. Barack Obama -- for vice president.

They maintain Obama provides no general election help for Clinton. As an African-American from Illinois, he represents an ethnic group and a state already solidly in the Democratic column.

This school of thought advocates a Southerner as Clinton's running mate. The last time Democrats won a national election without a Southerner on the ticket was 1944. Prominent Democrats from the South are in short supply today. The leading prospect: former Virginia Gov. Mark Warner."
