Guess Obama is no longer shilling for the Veep job. Bummer.

Guess there is something to that Sopranos knockoff video the HRC camp put out ...

Clinton would never ask him to be VP, and vice-versa, you should have seen her face after his speech at the convention in '04. Priceless!

It's a really odd story, but not even a little surprising, ultimately. I am disappointed that the odds of a Clinton/Obama ticket are less than nil, because that was the only way I could see Hillary easily winning. Since Hil is definitely getting the nom (barring a sex cult scandal or baby-eating revelations), that means I have to grind my teeth about who is winning until the last minute.

Well, sure, but that's because Sen Clinton is hoping for an Obama-Clinton ticket.

Since Hil is definitely getting the nom
Who really supports Hillary, thinks she'd make a good President, or likes her as a human being?

She has simply cultivated an aura of inevitability.

My attitude: if she can't even keep her husband's pecker in his pants, how will she win the respect of foreign leaders?

Jeez, she's got the tongs? That's bizarre.

Still, I don't think they matter that much overall.

And the third sentence gives weight to the first. I don't know who these millions of people are that want her, but apparently they think they can beat the right-wing's joy-joy when she runs.

@5.

You had me on your first two lines, and completely lost me in the end. you could have come up with a better reason for hating Hil than the one Ann Coulter and my Bush adoring mother use so much.

obama man-

"Who really supports Hillary, thinks she'd make a good President, or likes her as a human being?"

Wellllll, 44% of Democrats, for starters.

Your circle of friends =/= the entire Democratic base

Dude, the correct symbol is != (not equal) instead of =/=.

Get it right.

Sen Clinton is as inevitable as Sen Hubert Humphrey.

But that doesn't mean she wouldn't make a better President than any of the seven evolution-hating Red Bushie dwarves going for the nod.

The GOP motto right now is "run Hillary run!"

#11 - Not so, I believe that Newt Gingrich has been saying Mrs. Clinton would have a very good chance of winning the presidency. The GOP would rather run against Edwards or Obama.
