I don't think that the Obama people want to go negative on Clinton, which would be perceived as a disconnect from their message of "change." Whenever they have pushed those buttons, there is a stirring of sympathy for Clinton.
I would also suggest that the MSM, to say nothing of the blogsphere, has thoroughly aired Clinton's deficiencies. You have to admit that Obama has received more positive coverage from the MSM than Clinton. Given the pounding that Clinton has taken in the press, it is amazing that she is still standing. After 16 years of Clinton coverage, no one is surprised at anything they do.
Clinton is now talking abut being on the same ticket with Obama, though I would not take this seriously. I think that she is just playing with his head.
Clinton Hints At Sharing Ticket With Obama
NEW YORK (CBS) - Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton hinted at the possibility of a democratic "dream ticket" with Sen. Barack Obama.
Speaking on the Early Show on CBS, Clinton said "that may be where this is headed, but we have to decide who is on the top of the ticket."
Clinton said the race between her and Obama remains "incredibly close," with just "smidgens of difference" between them.
Clinton's remarks after her campaign won two big states yesterday: Ohio and Texas. She also won Rhode Island. The wins enabled her campaign to break Obama's 12-state winning streak and pick up some momentum of its own.
Speaking later on the Early Show, Obama congratulated Clinton on her victories while maintaining he would be able to wrap up the democratic nomination.
"We still have close to an insurmountable lead in delegates," Obama said. Obama said his campaign had won nearly twice as Clinton as well as a greater share of the popular vote.
