    Default Obama will only win if he picks Hillary

    He needs the blue collar people who are too stoopid to figure out that voting for an R will put even more of them out of work.

    Yeah that's true. I think the two biggest things that argue against a Hillary pick are: Bill's financial goings on, and too many Obama supporters who bear an unrelenting hatred against this woman much like the right wing wack jobs do. (no offense cawacko, I understand it's a birth defect)

    But what does she bring to the table that counteracts that and is it enough, is the question and I don't know the answer.

    While I understand BAC's dislike of Obama's recent changes, his becoming more centrist has helped him appeal to a much broader range of voters.

    I think adding Hillary would not help him. I think he would do better with Biden, who will at least bring experience and some foriegn policy knowledge to the table.

    I think Hillary has too much baggage, whether its real or perceived, its still negative.

    Darla, check out today's LA times entertainment section. Maria shriver hosted a Hollywood party for Clinton supporters who she was trying to get to rally around obama. On crackberry can't link it.

    Well Biden just say he wasn't the guy for the job.

    and i really think Hillary is the best choice, although I don't think Obama will pick her for VP for various reasons.

    Biden is a nut job and will cost him the election.
    Hillary makes it the dream team.

    Ok, this should tie it. Anyone else have any more doubt that Biden has to be the guy?

    I was back and forth between him and Hillary myself...but with this endorsement from Top, I gotta go with Biden.

    I like Richards.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
    - -- The Buddha

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

    LOL

    Honestly, I'm okay with Biden. To be honest he's about the only potential pick mentioned that I have no serious and/or deal breaker reservations about.
