Obama will bomb eventually so the Democrats are lining up the Hispanic vote if they can get it.

The trouble with making a Clinton/Richardson ticket a winner with the public is that neither one has any charisma. Dull dull dull. Just as dull and phony as Al Gore. Even though Obama has nothing substantial to say, he has "it."

I won't discount this because you could be very well correct. But I don't know of any VP candidate who has been more charismatic than the candidate himself. Like it or not, Richardson brings more experience to the table for those people who will say Hillary does not have executive experience. Add in Richardson's work as a state governor, at Energy and the UN, and he complements areas Hillary is vulnerable.

I take that back. Jack Kemp was more charismatic than Senator Dole. Still, Kemp was held back so that he would not overshadow Dole.

Well from the looks of it the Repubos got absolutely nothing to offer so dull can win in 2008 with enough money and enough fawning press. I suspect we have only taken the 1st sip of the bitter cup we poured ourselves Nov 7th. Short of another 09-11 style attack the sheep in this country have gone back to sleep and simply refuse to wake up.
