The election is won the day after the Clinton/Obama ticket is announced. Will Obama do it?

[Proud2BAmurkin]

Obama gets a run at the presidency after 8 years of experience in the White House. Clinton gets the presidency America needs to repair the economy and foreign relations.

Everybody wins, unless Obama decides to roll the dice and throw the party under the bus.

1. P2BA, with some respect, you are posting an awful lot of topics, my man.

Just sayin'.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

8. alright I'll lay off for a while

[joshcryer]

9. Thanks friend. :)

[joshcryer]

11. I don't think this ticket could possibly lose.

[earthlover]

28. Hillary could not win with superman on the ticket!

However, if Obama accepts VP....the ticket will inevitably lose because of Hillary's baggage. Obama will then be able to run again in 12. Only problem with that, Obama would associate himself with what he is campaigning against.

2. If anyone would blow 16 years of Democratic Presidency away

it would be Obama.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

3. 100% Spot On.

[Mojambo]

4. I don't think Clinton beats McCain without him. n/t

[Catch22Dem]

12. I don't think Clinton beats McCain

She does with me, but I don't think she does with the country.

[bunnies]

5. Yeah. Cuz that worked out really well for Al Gore.

:eyes:

[Proud2BAmurkin]

13. eh I don't think Hil is a threat there

[bunnies]

27. Maybe not. But I dont trust it nonetheless. nt

[TeamJordan23]

6. How is it throwing the party under the bus? Obama has principles

that are very different than the Clintons.

[maddiejoan]

14. He does?

Their respective platforms are nearly identical

[BlackVelvet04]

7. that ticket could pretty much lock up the whitehouse for the

Democrats for 16 years. Will it happen? I think it depends on whether or not Obama is willing to put his ego aside.

10. It's The 2008 Version Of The Roosevelt Coalition That Ruled For Fifty Years With Some Breaks

Here it is

Jews

African Americans

Hispanic

Working Class Whites

Intellectuals

Older Voters

Single Women

15. Bingo!

You win a kewpie doll

16. Plus It Helps Certain Groups That Are Reluctant To Vote For A Black Or A Woman To Vote For The Other

[Mojambo]

17. Intriguing take.

I kinda like the sound of that.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

19. I Forgot Asians

And among the groups I cited there are segments that are reluctant to vote for a black or a woman but by putting them on the same ticket you overcome it...

I admit the ticket is risky but I don't see losing any of those groups by having both on the ticket...

[Qutzupalotl]

18. They don't help each other

either Clinton/Obama or Obama/Clinton. They are too similar.

You will need strong national security cred to beat McCain. So I'm hoping Clinton picks Clark...and I say this as an Obama supporter. If it's Obama, I'm hoping Biden gets VP.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

20. If You Can Get 90% Support From African Americans, Latinos, And Asians You Start With Twenty Seven

Percent Or So Of The Vote...

You are forcing the Pugs to get damn near seventy percent of the white vote...

[Qutzupalotl]

21. But the first terra alert, many would run to daddy McCain. nt

[Proud2BAmurkin]

23. Clinton has immunized herself on that

[Qutzupalotl]

25. How?

[alteredstate]

22. After all the Obama-bashing you done

how can you stand to see him on the ticket at all?

[Proud2BAmurkin]

24. a compromise I can live with

[alteredstate]

26. How big of you.

I'm sure Senator Obama is breathing a sigh of relief at the news.

[LoZoccolo]

29. Kick.
