If Obama gets past the nomination fight and can go back to addressing the entire electorate instead of shopping for votes in particular Democratic constituencies, he can get back on the message of hope and new politics and a new generation in Washington. That was really his strength all along. It sells well out in the suburbs where the swing voters live.

It doesn't make sense to me either. Hillary is a very good politician, but she's losing at the moment. Now it's a credit to her that she can make some people still believe her win is inevitable even though she's losing, but I don't think in the long run it's a great strategy, because she's playing from a position of weakness. If she really HAD been winning, and she'd offered Obama the VP, she would have looked magnanimous (if she hadn't said what she did about his readiness), but at the moment, considering she's losing AND what she said about Obama, she just looks scared, and like a poor decision maker. imo
