Senator Dianne Feinstein says that if Barack Obama becomes the Democratic nominee, he should select Hillary Rodham Clinton as his running mate.
Feinstein, a longtime friend and supporter of Clinton's, says Clinton and Obama have "garnered a different constituency and different states." The California senator says that combining them would form the strongest ticket.
It isn't clear if Clinton would accept the vice-presidency, but Feinstein says she thinks that anyone accepts if they're asked.
The Obama campaign has dismissed reports that there are talks going on between the two campaigns about putting Clinton on the ticket.
and no fleas; in the armpit, either...
Ohhhhhh, my head hurts just from reading that.
Obama/Clinton cannot be beaten by John.
Obama gets all that he has won, and standing alone he would be very, very difficult to beat.
Hillary sucks off most of John's vaunted “independent” vote - whatever the Hell that is - along with all that she
has won.
Together they would have a unified party and roughly 2,480 times the cash that John could ever even dream of raising, and a very energized and eager base, along with the entire MSM working 24/7 for them.
I outright dread the possibility.
“June bugs”
Both Obama & Hill will be in Puerto Rico this weekend — hopefully none of them will catch the awful Dengue Bug....
So much for Limbaugh's OC. I wanted a stake in her heart ASAP and this guy has done his best to keep her alive! talk about unintended consequences - Sheeeesh!
Just what exactly are you advocating, Senator Feinstein?
>Then we wouldn’t be the candidate for “change” of he picked her it would just be the same old same old. LOL.<
I think they are of one mind as to what that “change” would bring.
As a team, to the immature he has the “star quality” (even if he is an empty suit), and she has the...... well, you know what she has I doubt if she would have her desk anywhere but right next to his in the oval office.
Yes, but in case you missed the memo, obama isn't taking the bait.
All such questions are answered with no real comment at this time, and nobody in the MSM is going to pressure him about it, either.
He simply waits, and he is damn smart to do so.
Those who underestimate him do so at their peril.
Your analysis is spot on. This is a completely unbeatable combination, albeit one that will be a complete and utter disaster once in office.
In all seriousness, the leftists who support Obama did so to turn the page on the Clintons.
Youth, change, hope blah blah blah.
He’d be stupid from a political standpoint to go down that road. She may be a lot of things, but she is not stupid. She knows that. Maybe she is looking for a graceful exit strategy so she can run in 2012 against McCain.
My first thought too. It'll never happen.
Could be a Hat trick, But the dice have to roll the right way!!
Di’s timing is impeccable.
Hill will be ready on Day One for Obambi’s funeral....
The Beast would have still been THE candidate for veep regardless of Operation Chaos. However, with OC, we got all the dirt on Obama because of the bambi/beast catfight. I don't know if OC helped that much, but I certainly don't see how it hurts.
” Please be very careful what you wish for! IMO this is the best way the Dems have to win “
Agree 1000% . The dream ticket for the Rats . They’d send McCain back to the rocking chair in short order .
So far it's worked, but it could still backfire. The longer it goes on the better, as right now both Clinton and Obama are losing favor with voters, all the dirty laundry and sniping back and forth have driven Obama's negatives almost up equal to hers.
You’re assuming that’s all the dirt they have on Obama. We’ll hear much, much more about this POS before November.
I don’t think Chelsea’s old enough. HAHA!
Hmmmm....put the two together and maybe Hillary is thinking of shooting her husband.
