Hillary and Barack in a threeway at Dianne's house?

[JerryDelColliano]

Its time to talk a little politics here.

Reports on CNN came out that Finestein brokered a meeting between the two dems in Washington DC. Obama has the deligates to win but not the states needed to win the big prize. Hillary does. I am sure that was discussed last night in detail.

Hillary could be a MAJOR threat if she was slighted by Obama for the VP as she could run as an Indy. If she did and won CA, PA, NJ, OH, FL, WV - she could beat both McCain and Obama. If she loses - she ruins the Clinton legacy which is pretty good (longest boom economy, peace etc...)

The Unity Ticket is the best bet as Obama could actualy lose to McCain despite Bush's terrible popularity ratings, war record etc... One terrorist attack and the country might vote red again. The Unity Ticket gets basically three presidents. From my view, thats better than one. Send Bill to mend relationships around the world. Have Hillary deal with domestic issues and let Obama run the entire show.

The big issue is: Obama promises CHANGE and Hillary doesn't represent change. She is old Washington. She needs to get on board with that concept and buy into his program or she will not be the VP and I wouldn't blame him for not picking her if that were the case.

What say you on this topic?

Well, first I didn't think it was about politics from the title.....

Second, I have been saying they will run together for a long time, and no one has believed me, but I think we can all see it coming to this. If it doesn't, and Hillary doesn't run as an Indy (which would be great but she won't do it!) McCain will likely win, I do not think Obama is electable due to his lack of experience and well, I don't like him, not that that matters in the Democratic party, I despise Hillary.......

Maybe if she had done some porn, or at least a soft core lesbian scene or two, I might have developed some respect for her, but currently I have none and think she's a lying C....

You don't really believe that Hilary could play second fiddle to Obama. It would Obama's worst nightmare.

Someone told me a good one, they said Hillary would take what ever the DNP gave her, if she was president, cool, if she was VP, the Clintons would kill Obama.....

Crass, cynical, and frankly totally politically incorrect but....

Losing should be his worst nightmare and without Hillary - he might just do that!

there is a lot of racism out there still and Hillary won the popular vote and the states needed to win.

Michelle Obama might not like Hillary but she better remember LBJ didn't like JFK either - they just did what it took to win.

I just watched Hillary's speech and she was very gracious as a loser. Honestly, she spun her loss as a victory of sorts. Imagine that - a politician turning lemons into lemonade. Isn't there a war in Iraq where our fearless current leader is doing the same thing with the souls of almost 4,100 Americans waiting to haunt him for eternity?

What I thought was of note is the CNN/Opinion Research poll that shows Hillary supporters are NOT on board with Barack yet. Much like in sports - if you can trade for your most hated (but very talented) player from the opposing team - you DO IT. Obama needs to do just this because he COULD lose to John McCain no matter what the polls said. Bush had no right winning a second term with Bin laden being left off the hook yet Kerry (like most wimpy Democrats) left him off the hook for that fact while Karl Rove (scumbag) swiftboated Kerry out of the white house allowing the war to continue and oil prices to hit $139 a barrel yesterday when the fixed costs are about $52. Anybody who voted for Bush should get a $1 per gallon stupidity tax that can go to Exxon Mobil or the House of Saud.

As my Dad says - these days with the media the way it is - nothing is predictable in politics thus this election will be exciting to watch.
