Better, perhaps, to co-opt them and bring them into the tent than to have them as dangerous dynastic rivals outside it.

Actually it's best to keep the Clinton's as far away from one self as humanly possible.

I cannot see a combined ticket in any configuration for these two. They both must hate each other, and also see the other as toxic. Even for the sake of expedience, I can’t see either thinking this is a good idea.

. The downside? They hate each other.

If Obama takes the top position he'd better watch his back and sleep with one eye open. The Clintonistas have a lot of dead bodies to account for.

Puke!

The only comment I can make should this inconceivable evil sweep over the USA is for everyone to gather up all their assets and send them to another country for safe keeping.

I can't see it either. Jusk think about it a bit: Obama doesn't just get Hillary, he gets Hill and Bill, a former president. Both have enormous egos.....they would be in the way of everything Obama did....at best Obama would end up getting coffee and pastry for the meetings, at worst....well.....Ft Marcy park.

If Obama is VP, it will mean that the prez spot was stolen from him by Hillary, and all the resentment that entails. Also, Hillary doesn't just get Obama, she gets Wright, Farahkhan, and the new Black Panthers.....quite a crew of power hungry thugs at your heels constantly.

I heard Sullivan on some talk show the other day, Maybe Hewitt. He is so totally in love and lust with Obama he almost fainted. Really creepy.

Clinton/Obama would work, but not the other way around.

Obama might run with Gov Ted Strickland of Ohio. Without carrying Ohio, Obama has no chance in November.

Rove once called the idea of a McCain-Huckabee ticket “double trouble”, because you’d get the negatives of both men working against the vote - same applies with Obama/Clinton, with those who hate Hillary hesitating to vote for Obama, and those who won’t vote for Obama leaving Hillary - won’t happen.......

If it happens (not sure it will, can’t see why he would have her as VP), then it would be the biggest Dem landslide since 1964.

.

The Perfect Match.

OBAMA supports America’s domestic terrorists.

HILLARY supported Communist North Vietnam’s terrorist takeover of a then Free South Vietnam during the Vietnam War. Bringing down on many formerly Free South Vietnamese people a most horrid:

The conservative white voters that Clinton has amazingly managed to attract could be combined with the massive infusion of new young votes, internet money, and African-American enthusiasm to create a potential tsunami in the election.

Andy displays a stunning naivete of why Conservatives are voting for Clinton.

Hillary would have to believe Obama can become President before she would take #2...I dont think she believes he can

I’ve been predicting a Clinton/Obama merger.

She convinces the supers to go her way, then drafts BO as a way to “unify” the party.

And I don’t think McCain can beat it.
