Dave, I really don't know if Obama CAN be elected if Hillary's not on the ticket with him. There was so much negativity thrown between the two of them during the primary season that a lot of people have polarized between the two camps and no amount of "endorsement" will change some minds.

As to her having a role in the administration if Obama does get elected, that's another very iffy idea. He COULD offer that olive branch, but it's not a guarantee...I'm thinking we'll see people who've helped his campaign first in line for most jobs. She might get on the list, but I don't think it'll be one of his priorities.

Too bad, I really became a Hillary fan. I was not one a year ago. She fought hard and earned my respect. I don't see her on the ticket.

Xantun,
It was a really long, hard-fought and often times bitter primary battle. Emotions are still raw and high, but I'm pretty sure that the people who supported Hillary will for the most part fall in line behind Obama. Her speech was framed just like I thought it would be which was "I know you supported me, and I'm disappointed too, but don't eff this up by voting for McCain." I don't think Obama will pick her as VP because Bill Clinton is going to carry a lot of baggage with his post-Presidency business dealings. I wouldn't be surprised to see him pick someone like Wes Clark or Evan Bayh, big-time Clinton backers who could really help him out on the ticket. (cont.)

NADER, NADER, NADER!!!!!!!!!!

The election will hinge, ultimately, on who has a short term energy policy that reduces price at the pump, and price from the oil delivery truck.

Obama has no policies....he's screwed.

Interesting fact I heard. When George Bush took off almost 8 years ago, gas was a whooping $1.43 a Gal.

say we all write in Hillary on the ballot and show the DNC we will not have Democracy taken from "We the People." Who cannot say that there was not predjudice in the Democratic primary. As early as February they were asking Clinton to bow out, disregarding the people's right to vote. Why did they push for everyone to get out and vote when it was apparent the DNC and the Delegates had already decided on Obama. I just don't know if it was Gender bias or Clinton bias, but I find it strange that the media isn't covering that. Believe me this will be questioned later in the history books. If Obama feels he does not need the Clinton votes, I say write her in to send a message to Obama and the DNC. This would be better than voting for McCain. 18 million write ins would make history....and also make our point, that "We the People" have a right to vote and not to be pressured or hurried into voting the way the DNC or Delegates want.

eenie meenie mieney moe Hillary Clinton has got to go. rock paper scissors 2 out of 3. Blame it on Oprah and the Kennedy's. They were the people who decided for the rest of us that it is better for a black to be in office than a woman. I'm either voting for Nader or may do like you say and write her in.

You show one place where I said it was rigged. You tell me the power of endorsement by the mentioned above had nothing to do with it.

It's over and all the back and forth bickering won't change a thing. The only one good thing about all of this, we won't have to see this Bush as President again. I just hope Laura doesn't decide to run. Let me ask you something HM, Some of my friends and I are in a argument about the way she dressed. Do you think if she wore a dress more often, it might have helped. (Not necessarily the outcome, but her image)????
