Talk of a Clinton/Obama ticket (or vice versa)

March
5

Making appearances on six morning TV news programs this morning, Hillary Clinton fielded a question on the possibility of an Obama-Clinton or Clinton-Obama ticket in the wake of her wins in Ohio, Texas and Rhode Island last night.

According to the Associated Press, Clinton was asked on CBS’s “The Early Show� whether she and Obama should be on the same ticket.

“That may be where this is headed, but of course we have to decide who is on the top of ticket. I think the people of Ohio very clearly said that it should be me,� she said, according to the wire service.

    I woke up this morning to see a fellow Highbrid Nation writer reporting that Hillary has won the Ohio and Texas primaries and how this is getting bad. And like him I feel like this battle between Obama and Hillary has went on too long and now they are in danger of hurting the party by allowing McCain to take shots at them while they are dealing with each other. Howard Dean should step in and say “Look, Obama is going to be the canidate and Hillary you can be his running mate if you choose�…I know I know that would never happen but a guy can dream right?

    Why doesn’t MIke Belgrove think Hillary should be the one on the top of the ticket? She’s the one with the experience & drive. The women of the country answered the call to arms to keep Hillary going all the way to the top.

    hillary strenght is that she is able to rally the democratic troops she is not so successful with independants the opisite goes for barak, If hillary wins barak would be forced on her by the party as he would be an advantage. the same is not so for hillary she is not a benefit to barak if he wins.So im hoping for a hillary barak team.

    The reality of this election is that Obama is seeking real change and that will happen if he chooses Miss C. Rice as his V.P. Think about it one from each party comming together to make real change. Her record on forign policy and his desire to bring us all together could be just what we all have been needing for a long time.
    I hoping that this will happen.

    Some disturbing happenings here during the Minnesota caucuses lead me to wonder whether the republicans want to run against Obama. While listening to NPR I heard a democratic caucus volunteer from a smaller town saying: “This seems strange but I have seen lots of regestered repubcicans in here tonight. They vote and then ask if they can leave.” This makes myself and many other people wonder if the repubs are helping Obama get the nod because maybe they have enough dirt on him to win the general election. Sound like another brilliant Rove trick?
