Giuliani/Rice is the only ticket that can handle Clinton/Obama in 08.

Sure lets run two people neither of which have ever won a statewide election or even competed in a statewide election.</sarcasm> Seriously look at history. When parties are dumb enough to nominate a Mondale or G.H.W. Bush both of whom were VPs but never won a statewide election, they struggle. Politics particularly presidential politics is a game for the pros. It is not a game for people like Rice or Powell who have never won an office.

Clinton/Obama might be a strong ticket in 2008 and it might be a losing ticket too. Let's see how Clinton does in her reelection campaign. She is hardly a seasoned politician herself.

The nomination would not ride on the VP, would it?

Mondale was elected statewide three times and nationally once. GHWBush was elected nationally twice before he ran for Prez.

LOL!

Hillary won in New York not due to her political savvy, but as a result of the political savvy of the people running her campaign.
