How many times in the last century has the VP candidate really affected the ballot? One?

If Obama has less than a 50% chance of winning without Hillary, then he really doesn't deserve the nomination in the first place.

Sure, do whatever it takes to get elected (what else is new with Democrats?), but once elected, Obama's trust in Hillary would be misplaced. She and Bill would undermine Obama's authority every step of the way.

Sorry, I think the Clintons need to run the show and will try to do so if they get into the WH. I really don't think that's a good idea now.

If the odds with Hillary as VP were almost a sure thing, and the odds without Hillary as VP were less than 50%, would you change your mind? Because that's what I'm thinking.

And right now we need to do anything to keep another Neo hawk out of the WH.


John, its operating out of fear that gets this country into messes. I think Obama and someone other than HRC can win. I am not willing to risk HRC as president [should something happen to Obama] for fear that we will end up with McCain. If Americans won't vote for Obama for who he is and w/o HRC, then they deserve ending up with crap, I mean McBush. IMO.
