Actually this did not come from a Clinton supporter----but from a very astute, politically experienced person who feels that Hilary cannot win the Democrat nomination due to the dislike for her amongst Democrats. And, if she were to win she could not carry the election. Person believes it is very possible that Democrats will lose the general election if Hilary is selected for the ticket-----claims that about 60% of Democrats cannot stand Hilary. This person's observation was that Obama is angling for the Vice President slot putting him in the position to be the heir apparent to run for President the next election cycle----win or lose the general election in 2008. Regardless of whether he is in the Presidential slot or the Vice President slot for election---------the other part of the team must be electable. That is the challenge being faced to put together a team that is electable----a team that truly works together and the two candidates complimenting the other-----regardless of the office for which they are running. mj
