I would not be surprised to see him run with Hillary on the #2 spot. It could happen.

I wouldn't be surprised either. I think it's more likely for him to try for VP under a sKerry ticket though.

MSM portrayal of Obama:

How Obama actually is:

Wonder if he might take my plea for him to --leave DC and never return --seriously as well.

Well--- it might be worth a try. The only thing better if he might take the swimmer and her thighness along with him.

[TheRedSoxWinThePennant]

Doesnt he need more Gravitas? Oh wait his a lib never mind

Oprah is the one that pleas for him to run. Two days after he was elected she was telling her audience that "he's the real deal". When people say she should run she says no she will work for Obama.

[T. Jefferson]

An inexperienced Muslim President. Yeah, that'll happen.

Well the Sun-Times ...a paper I like ....keeps pushin the story and all the dims in my office think he's the best next thing.....

If I was a gambler I'd bet he's angling for VP to Hillary and that would be a ticket the Repubs should not take lightly.

This is a guy who looks and sounds good on the surface, but the closer you look at him and examine his rhetoric, the more of a zero he really is.

Kinda like Edwards.

"Well the Sun-Times ...a paper I like ....keeps pushin the story and all the dims in my office think he's the best next thing....."

The dims think he's the best because the papers keeping telling them that he's the best.

You need a two prong approach here. First, give everybody in the office something else to read. Maybe print out a Coulter column every week, cover the top and bottom of the printout with the words: "Chicago Sun-Times" in black marker. Secondly, start up conversations with them about what the Democrats really believe about people and what they want to do to keep power over them.

Kerry got his shot. He isn't going anywhere in '08. In fact, I think he will be radioactive. On the other hand, Gore could mount a comeback, but its Hillary's to lose.

"Please tell me that you don't *really* believe that The Former Twelfth Lady would allow Osama Obama to steal what's rightfully hers."

No, what I do believe is that the Democat party wants to make a Hollywood production out of everything and an Illinois Black Democrat is good theatre.

Mark my words. He will be on the ticket. The RATS are starting to lose the black vote. It's slow but it will happen.

Hillary will ensure that blacks stay on the plantation.

[Gay State Conservative]

Mark my words.He will be on the ticket.

I think there's a real possibility of that happening.But mark *my* words that he won't occupy the top spot on the ticket in '08.

[EQAndyBuzz]

"But mark *my* words that he won't occupy the top spot on the ticket in '08."

I agree with that.
