Clinton especially is worried about Obama. Clinton supporters have for some time been talking of a somewhat concerted effort between Clinton and Edwards to battle the charisma powerhouse that is the unseasoned Obama. This conversation is exactly as it appears–Clinton has wanted to reach out to Edwards for some time in order to offset the popularity of Obama. She sees Senator Obama as her main opponent for the Presidency, and feels that Edwards would make a sound running mate. Ah, to be in the top tier of Presidential candidates.

I am a Hillary fan, and by not being real with me and the public, in this instance I am put off, nobody likes to be manipulated. Edwards was inching into my vote with his pre-campaign work in Katrina relief, this sort of thing, sweat equity, in a cause does indicate a part of the real measure of a man and does get reported, but if it is just for the cameras we'll get the phoniness; free public recognition is a good thing for any campaign. I still have heard nothing that diminishes my high regard for Kucinich, and now he is helped by an underdog status. As I recall Bill Clinton came on as a dark horse from the rear when he first was elected. The solution is to have more debate time, say one question for all the candidates, with time for a real discussion and rebuttal of ideas, also this would showcase unscripted responses, ability to negotiate, intelligence and originality, mental nimbleness, and compromise all important requirements in a President. We could have a new question each two or three days, some just one party, some everyone together, even minor party and independents, but a real debate or discussion so we really understand who we are voting on; democracy with such a large public depends on transparency and honesty. A process like a series of job interviews, candidates may not like it; but they are asking to work on our behalf and we must measure them honestly so they will do as asked or forfeit running. Just a few thoughts.
