Shrillary is so desperate that at this point she is resorting to any and all things. Her mood swings from one day to the next are scary and her facial expressions reveal her hate for Obama. She has in the last week revealed a real "ugliness" about herself. The Clintons, and yes, we would get the pair, are everything we don't need after 8 years of "Emperor George". Barack Obama is our country's only hope.! I am a 50 year old white woman making less than $50,000 a year and I say "YES WE CAN"!!!

OBAMA '08

People in this world is never satisfied with anything our main focas is to oust the replicians,you have two intelligent qualified people here that's equally the same on their ideals give or take a few yet you still complain,they both need to stop beating up on each other and save that energy for the republicians the ones who has hurt these last 7 years and maybe 4 more if mcclain gets in there,they the republicains are sitting back laughing,and raising more money for their mcclain and building him up for the kill come this november,if you'all do the math neither is going to have enough delegates to get the nominatin themselves so enough is enough that butt hole bush refered to the democrats as the enemie is a prime example of what I'm talking about if another one of them people lead this country so it's time for some unity of them coming together and the force behind them will be truly amazing come this nov but god already has it worked out ........hillary/obama'08

You Obama fans are so scared of Hilary it is pitifull. Come on, relax you don't have to lie and try to destroy her. You know she is the most qualified candidate and that is why you say bad things about her. Get over it.

I think Obama would be a great VP and would gain the experience needs to run this country, right now he has about the same experience as W. and you know where that got us. In 8 yrs. I would vote for him but just yet. I am a independent so I will vote Mc Cain if Hillary does not make it. To much is at stake for another novice.

Are you people serious, there will be a cold day in hell before you see a joint ticket join with Sen. Obama and Sen. Clinton? Fact of the matter is Hillary Clinton thinks she’s entitled to be president so much so that she would destroy anybody who gets in her way. She would feed her young (although Chelsea is not so young anymore) to wild animals if she though it would win her the nomination.

Hillary is LOSING. And losing big. 150 delegates and she will not be able to catch up.

Maybe Obama will pick her for VP, but not after she is so ugly and negative.

She's lost. He's won. She may get VP if she drops out sooner rather than later and stops the sleaze.

My comments never seem to make these discussions but I see the same names over and over. Gov. Rendell stated on national t.v. that Ohio was racist and Pennsylvania was the same. So now he wants Sen. Obama to be a gooooood Democrat and let Sen. Clinton be at the top of the ticket. I will along with hundreds in my union change to become and independent. I will not vote for her on top of the ticket and help a bunch of racists put her in office.

Why do Clinton and/or her supporters keep bringing this up? Is it because they realize that Obama is the only person who can prevent independent voters from flocking to McCain?

Clinton needs Obama much more than Obama needs Clinton.

How about a "no Clinton" ticket?

America deserves better.

Why is that Samantha Power has to resign but not Howard Wolfson

Is Hillary thinking of a running mate offer from the man she claims is not even as good as the 72 year old republican? She needs to look a little further than the democratic party affiliation for a job. We do not work with hypocrates, liers, imposters, and nonsensical brains. Thats all she is and its a big shame that she thinks she can represent a country when in fact she has failed to represent a party. No wonder she is not getting any support from the higher learned Americans. They can see deeper than her witchy face. She is nothing but what she was refered to by Ms. Power. I just hate that somebody had to resign for calling her by her real name "monsterous witch"

Either way we are DOOMED!!

we get the back-stabbing, controlling freak in Hillary, or an empty shell, no platform Obama.

The reason us democrats are dying off again is because we can't ever pick one person who is a moderate with some experience and some ethics. Americans dont want extremists, or self serving politicians anymore. Why can't we have one NORMAL candidate who has the background and respect for democracy that Americans want? THE DAYS OF CAMELOT ARE OVER!! Spin meisters like James Carvalle have only seved to destroy our image, because instead of being honest, they minupulate everything they touch.

Go ahead, say it.....you know its true...President McCain.

Thanks for ruining our chances again..................................idiots!

Obama shouldn't pick her. She's a traitor to ehr party.

Someone on another message board said it best: Obama should flat out "reject & denounce" any notion of sharing a ticket with the Clintons. Of course, he'll have to do both in order to convince Hillary he's serious.

I don't work for anyone so I can say with out a doubt that Hillary Clinton is not only a monster, she is low down. I think that Rendell must have had something in his coffee to suggest that Obama and Hillary run on the same ticket. If Hilliary is anywhere on the Democratic slate I think I will finally get off the Democratic Plantation and go Independent.

BTW, Hillary where are your tax returns!!! Obama has come clean a long time ago so where are yours??

You lied to the American people by going on national TV and telling us that you would disclose your returns in 2 weeks, NOW it's not until April...

Hillary supporters can't you read between the lines?

WHERE ARE YOUR TAX RETURNS HILLARY?

Come on Pennsylvanians don't make the same mistake that Ohio and Texas made - they fell for the smoke screen...

Join the CHANGE MOVEMENT! – For Obama

Obama doesn't need Hillary to win! SO NO!

Obama, stop pretending you don't know that your staff throw mud on Hillary every minute every day. They are tireless.
Enough hiding behind their backs. YOU ARE NOT "CHANGE", YOU ARE NOT "HOPE"! Your are regular politician. You fool little college students with naive perception of political following like some kind of CULT movement.
Your supporters are bunch of mad dogs. So much hate, so much anger!
You are in a good company, it is your world.
There is a saying:"Tell me who are your friends and I will tell you who you are". Your supporters blaim the Clinton's for rasism.You are much more rasists than white people.Your are not uniter YOU ARE DIVIDER.
VOTE HILLARY 2008.

Obama would never allow Clinton to be his VP; he's too arrogant and full of himself. Clinton would have Obama to unite the Democratic Party.

Obama has lied; his wife has said racist comments, Clinton has tag-along Bill. McCain takes it all by default..... we are all so screwed!

No way Barack joins/incldes her on any ticket. She is way too negative and desperate for power. I will not vote for any Dem ticket that includes Hillary.

Thanks, but no thanks...Hillary Clinton has behaved so badly the last couple of weeks that it would be hard to see them together. In addition why is she speaking so highly of John McCain. Now I respect his loyalty for his country and what he has given but of late (just yesterday)she makes him sound like he walks on water. Maybe the ideal ticket could be McCain and Clinton.

There is no way in West Hell that Obama should ever offer the VP slot to her. Sen. Clinton represents the old ways of which America is tired.

Where are her old tax returns? I don't think anyone is expecting to see this year's until april 15th, but where are the ones from the past 7 years? They've already been prepared and filed so what is the big hold up?

Let me guess! They're being "sanitized" before being released to the public! What are they hiding?

Where is the transparency?
Where is the 35 years of experience?

The Democratic party would do well not to be dismissive of the 13 million people who have so far voted for Hillary. I for one will not vote along party lines if Hillary is not also on the ticket.

Disregard the will of the people at your own peril...............

I think it's great of Chelsea to leave her job and go around campaigning for her mom. Must be a great job-most of us wouldn't have jobs to come back to. Talk about pulling out all the stops. Incidentally, how many Clintons does it take to run against Senator Obama

Republicans will have a field day wtih Billary in any ticket. The White House will become Red in color. Obama does not want to destroy the Democratic Party by exposing Billary. Everybody knows the dirt surrounding her.

Republicans have not forgotten the PeterPaul case that held Hillary Clinton Accountable Under Oath For the Fraud when her Treasurer, admitted filing 3 False FEC Reports.

Hillary says the press is hard on her. How come they are silent when she's unable to release her tax records. Obama is not stupid! Obama is not weak! Obama has released his taxes to the public.

Obama can bring down Billary but the Party will suffer. He CARES for this country.

after what she said about lbj doing more for civil rights than martin l king. i can not in good conisence vote for her I WILL STAY HOME. as a blk man it was an insult. and all that blacks has been thur to see these lateenos waltz across the border w/ amnesty on the way disgusts me. LATEENOS AMNESTY IS ON THE WAY.

If Hillary and her supporters cared so much about party unity she wouldn't be half as nasty as she is being now.

And if she cared about unity and looked at the numbers realistically she would call Obama now and offer to drop out in exchange for being offered the VP position.

LOL...DONT AMERICA PEOPLE SEE WHAT THIS WOMEN IS TRYING TO DO.......ALL HILLARY IS SAYING TO AMERICA IS .......IF I CANT BE THE ONE TO WIN THE NOMINATION.....WELL I'M GOING TO MAKE IT HARD AS HELL FOR YOU DEM'S TO WIN THE WHITE HOUSE....AND BELIEVE ME SHE IS DOING A HELL OF A GOOD JOB AT IT......FOR THE PAST FEW DAYS SHE HAS SAID IN HER OWN WORDS ( ONLY HER AND MCCAIN WILL FIT WITH THE EXPERIENCE LINE SHE SO LOVE TO USE )FOR THE WHITE HOUSE....ONCE AGAIN HILLARY DOING THAT FIP FLIP THING AGAIN..........IN THE DEBATES SHE ALL FOR THE DEM PARTY SAYING NO MATTER WHAT ONE OF US WILL BE IN THE WHITE HOUSE AND WE DONT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT ANOTHER BUSH......LOL...A BUNCH OF BULL......BECAUSE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SEEN SHE'S ALL ABOUT ONLY ONLY HER AND MCCAIN..........I THINK SHE NEEDS TO RUN WITH MCCAIN...BECAUSE SHE IS CLEARLY SAYING HER OR MCCAIN FOR THE WHITE HOUSE.wHICH IS TRUE BECAUSE WOULD VOTE MCCAIN......IF THATS THE CASE.....

Come on Pennsylvanians don't flock along side your governor like sheep... You're all smarter than that!!!

Vote for CHANGE it's what this country needs not the same old, same old!!!

Join the MOVEMENT for CHANGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CHOOSE JUDGEMENT OVER EXPERIENCE - There are many people who have experience but still continue to make the same mistakes over and over again!

There are Hillary supporters who would not want the ticket without her on top. So where does that leave the democratic party....? After Oblahma made the comment that all the Hillary people would come to him but his people would not move to her he will NEVER get my vote if he is at the top of the ticket!

Hillary '08!!!!!

I agree with B. Smart. Hillary will stop at nothing. There is even an article recently published that indicates that she does not even know how to lose. After all, she sacrificed her womanhood by making excuses for her husband who committed an adulterous act in the White House. My question is she says she is going to keep the nation safe and will answer the call at 3 a.m. She could not even keep her marriage together and keep her husband from straying, nor could she keep an intern safe in the White House from her lecherous husband. I don't care if he needed extramarital affairs as a man, but in the White House. How can she claim to be strong? A real strong woman would not cover it up for political ambition, would call a spade a spade, and move on. As for Mr. McCain, he is 71 years old, and aging. He may be suffering from post-traumatic stress syndrome as a post-war victim of torture. He could snap at any second. Just listen to the "my friends" comments even when he talks with his enemies. He cannot be trusted with the "red phone" either. As for Barack Obama, he seems to be the least of three evils. If he does not get the nomination, I'm voting for Nader.

More of the nastiness. Lets get real and quit fighting against ourselves. How are we going to fund a re vote in Michigan and Florida?

In my 40 years of voting for president, I have never seen Americans as excited about one man as they are today. People are referring to Barack Obama as another Bobbie Kennedy. When I stood inside a Northern Nevada caucus and observed almost 70 all caucasians hand their precinct over to Barack Obama when they could have easily chosen John Edwards, who nearly failed to receive the necessary number of delegates to proceed in their process, I knew that America was about to turn a new page. By supporting those 40 to 50 million Americans without health care, Hillary Clinton set a new standard for First Lady. She didn't have to care...she had her coverage.. but she DID! Obama needs to be president because this country needs to repair its image in the world. We have already learned that the military option cannot solve Iraq or stop those who want to KILL US. The world needs to see that America is ready to behave... then we can implement Hillary's health care. The only way this will work is with Obama leading the ticket...Hillary VP...if she wants it. If Hillary is leading the ticket, Barack would have very little credibility when talking to our "future" friends.

Everyone: Obama has won the nomination. It's mathmaticaly impossible for Hillary to overcome the non-super delagate lead that Obama has. She'd have to win 62% of the votes in every remaining state. A Re-Vote in Michigan and Florida will not do her any good at all. She needs the current vote to count (what she's been calling for). Because Obama will win Michigan. She has no chance at beating him in Michigan. Obama will win Mississipi, North Carolina, and Michigan without a doubt. All that does is make sure his lead will likely remain at over 100 delagates. Which means the Supers will pick him. They can't pick her. He will have won more states, delagates, and the popular vote. So her only chance now is to "force" a joint ticket.

I saw the Florida govenor on TV last night admitting that he doesn't care about DNC party rules. He caused this intentionally and Floridians need to hold him accountable.

If the rules can change so easily, why don't they just change the nomination rules and say whoever has the most pledged delegates wins.

No do overs!

Obama should hold a press conference to tell the voters that he is dropping out of the race for Vice President. Hillary is just using it for political gain. If she gets the nod (God, I hope not) then I'll just have to hold my nose and vote for McCain. There is no way that I would vote for that "monster" Hillary.

Hillary...No you didn't! I have been a proud life-long liberal and there is no way in gods creation that I would vote for Hillary after her lies about Obama. Hillary, you have no right in commenting about an Obama advisor. No right after your team leaked a photo of Obama and suggested "Well as far as I know, he's not a terrorist". Well, as far as I know...you are not going to be POTUS!

C'mon, Ed, you certainly know that two losers do not a winner make.

I think they have no choice. This might be the only solution for either candidate to unite their bases of support. If Obama becomes the nominee, he will need to think hard how this will benefit him.

All Pennsylvanians know that Ed Rendell and the Clintons have much in common. They know how to run sleezy and down right dirty campaigns. Rendell who defeated Lynn Swann last year because Swann was a sacrificial lamb shoved out there by PA republican party and not supported. He believes in political machinery and believes in sledge-hammering the opposition by "any means necessary". But Rendell only knows Philadelphia. He does not know Pennsylvania. Obama speaks to young people who are victimized by old politicians who cannot stand to lose power. We Baby Boomers messed up! Our young people need to take over and save this country and this planet for future generations to come! Hillary failed to provide a complete list of delegates for the PA primary even after Rendell extended the deadline for her! See what I mean? Bush did not get PA in 2000 or 2004 because the urban areas were not fooled by this joker. Close your eyes and just listen to Obama speak and tell me it does not give you hope. Yes, Rendell, PA is ready to vote for Obama regardless of his race! Is that why you never emphasize your Jewish heritage when campaiging? Did you think that fact would not get you elected in PA?

Over on the Washington Times newspaper online, they are reporting a $700,000 windfall Bill Clinton received in dealings with Armand Rousso who was recently convicted in some shady dealings. Check out Washington Times online.

I'm still waiting to see something on the Peter Paul vs Clinton campaign finance fraud case in California as we speak. Unlike the Rezko trial that didn't list Obama as a witness – ALL of the Clintons (including Chelsea) are listed as witnesses.

This campaign has become so divisive (surprise, surprise) I can not see how you can hold onto many supporters unless their candidate is at the top fo the ticket and, in some cases, if the opponent is on the ticket at all. This is what all the negativity has gotten us to, a obvious schism among Clinton and Obama supporters.

Since Hillary has so much baggage and her approval ratings are SO low I could only accept this arrangement if she were VP.
However, Obama would be a fool to be VP under her. I am sure if she is elected her term will be filled with scandals, back stabbing, and corruption. It would forever taint Obama. I do believe he should offer the position to her and pray she declines it.

Hillary would have far more to gain by this while Barack and the American people would be the great losers. It is so interesting to hear the Clintons (yes, all 3 of them) answer the question about "Bush, Clinto, Bush, Clinton". They always respond back that there should never have been a 2nd Bush while most Americans don't want to repeat the same error by having a second Clinton.

hey the obama camp apologized for the remark. so let it go.

If it plays out the way you suggest Hilary steal, I would strong urge every Obama support to Vote McCain \ Powell ticket on the Republican side.

The Dream Ticket? For months on end your two candidates are fighting it out in State after State, only to – in the end – fall in each others' arms? What would that say about the credibility of both candidates? And why were all these millions of dollars – in campaigns as well as primaries! – spent?

You have TWO very good candidates running but matching them? When is the last time you had a President and an equally strong VP in the White House? Never?

If Hillary steals the nomination with her negative comments, I would rather see Obama run for President as an Indepentant than to accept being Vice President on the ticket with her. I would rather vote for the Republican candidate the very first time in my life, than to vote for her.

I can't imagine Clinton and Obama getting along much
less running a country together. . . .bad idea.
If we can't have McCain I sure don't want someone
who won't even salute our flag.
It's McCain or Clinton for this Ohio resident.

Suck it up people. I don't trust Obama as the *president* because I don't think he has the experience. But I fully support the ideals that found the Democratic party, so whether it's a Hillary/Obama, Obama/Hillary, or something different democratic ticket, I will support it. Please don't divide. Democrats will surely lose the election if we do that. Remember what's important. And for Obama supporters, if he doesn't win the nomination, remember that he's young and has time to mature politically. Don't ruin this election because you think your dream of *hope and change* has been ruined! And HIllary supporters...will you really put McCain in the office over Obama???

Come together...right now...Democrats!

We will see if the pro Clinton news, CNN blocks this also! The extreme right wing Rush Limbaugh is telling everyone to vote for Hillary! That is a good indication of whom the conservative right thinks they can beat in Nov. Now I'm all for a women President, BUT NOT THIS WOMEN! Many seem to be blinded to the fact that the Clinton's are capable of doing anything and everything to get back into the White house! I cannot believe Texas and Ohio gave her a chance to steal this election! I doubt Obama would be dumb enough to invite this cancer onto his ticket! We were close to impeaching the Clinton's just eight years ago! Doesn't that mean anything to her voters! If Hillary jumped off a cliff, would half the women in this country follow?

Obama can find a better VP than Clinton. Clinton's 7 years of legislative experience leave her unqualified to preside over the U.S. Senate.

I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR HILLARY CLINTON , YOU CAN PAY ME ALL THE MONEY IN THE WORLD. I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR HER , SHE IS RIPPING OBAMA AND PRAISING MCAINE TO WIN . SHE IS MORE CONCERNED ABOUT HER SELF THAN THE PARTY . SHE IS A LOSER!

This just another one of the "monster's" underhanded ploys to deceive the voters. I agree with Power she is not just a monster but a Frankenstein who sucks the blood of the country. I will never vote for her even if Barack is her VP. He is too good for VP and should/will be the Prez. I don't beleive he would ever select a "monster" for his VP. She would undermine him. Voers do not fall for this ploy.

If the Democrats can't even run a primary election without screwing it up, how in the hell are they going to be able to handle National Security, the economy, and the other big problems and crises?

Pelosi obviously hasn't been able to do anything constructive in a year plus in running the House, Reid's a bust doing anything in the Senate, and even our wonderful Al Gore has found out his Global Warming was all a charade................. Isn't there anyone capable of leading in the Democratic Party. It sure isn't Howard Scitzo Dean.....

There are way more qualified VP's out there than Clinton. I don't want her in the white house at all and I think Obama is smart enough to leave her off his VP list. She's a divisive personality and dishonest in her business dealings, Nobody's administration needs that, especially one rooted in change and hope. We don't even need to discuss her asking him to be VP, she doesn't have a chance of gaining enough votes to be in the lead.

Hillary on any ticket is the best way to elect McCain! Of course she's extending the "olive branch", it's the only way to ensure getting her name on the ballot... and isn't it strange that she currently seems to use that branch as a stick to beat the air with offenses? As far as being sexist, the idea that voting for a woman because she's a woman is the only sexism I've seen... my wife is very insulted by the idea that anyone should accept that as an excuse to blindly vote for Hillary, and if we were speaking on the flip-side (voting for Obama because he's a man), it would no doubt be condemned as being sexist! I've noticed that the only people who seem to support this are Hillary fans. I also noted that there seem to be some condescending remarks about Obama's experience... just what experience did Hillary gain as the first lady of Arkansas, or in the White House for that matter. She wasn't the governor, nor the president. She did quite a bit of traveling and met some people as the first lady, which isn't quite the same as the role of the president... by a very long shot! As far as I can tell, she jumped ship to New York and became their senator which started her official career as an elected official. Obama has far more experience and needs to make that clear to the voters, exposing the lies being spread about by Hillary and her supporters.

@Concerned

Your a lame brain.

CNN – I took the time to write this comment – Please post it!

Senator Obama should come out clearly and say he will not consider the "dream ticket" either way. That way, he strips the power from Clinton with the trick she is trying to pull here with implying that people can just go ahead and vote for her and they'll get Obama too. Of course, stating he will not be party to it will require extreme caution. Otherwise it will appear he is being undiplomatic because of the spin that is already being put on this – that somehow it's a goodwill gesture on her part. Bull! That woman does nothing out of goodwill, and shame on the people who buy into her bull!

Obama would never agree to be Hillary's VP. The thought is totally disgusting to me as an African American. The only reason that Hillary would even consider Obama as her running mate would be because of pressure from the Democratic Party to try to bring the party back together and use us to help her defeat McCain. Sorry Governor Rendell, it will not happen. The Clintons wounds on the African American voters are too deep. You can thank Bill and Hillary exclusively for that.

I also find it curious that there is always the dream of a Clinton/Obama ticket. Isn't Obama still in the lead and still in the race? I have yet to hear a dream of an Obama/Clinton ticket. Interesting but I guess the more things change the more they stay the same.

Are you out of your mind. Hillary will not have Obama because he will outshine her. If Obama have her has VP it is just like Cheney and BUsh. Cheney harmed bush more than a help. Same way.

Didn't Hillary endorse John McCain yesterday, indicating her preference that he be commander in chief and not Obama.

Hillary=BushRove=Sleazy!!!

It would be a dream ticket then they can squeeze mccain and his vp
PRESIDENT OBAMA
VP HILLARY

if senator Clinton gets the democratic nomination by going negative, this is what is going to happen. McCain might pick Colin Powell as his VP who will sweep Obama suporters.
because there is no way Clinton can attract people that were attracted to Obama like the young, african americans and independents.
so vote wisely, we cannot afford to have another term of republicans

I don't think so, Hillary does not need to be no where near the White House. She as thrown so much mud at him I would not want to work with someone like this, I don't think he could trust her.

Neither Obama nor Clinton would be a good choice for the VP slot on the other's ticket. They don't make up for each other's weaknesses, they don't defend the parts of their constituency that McCain would erode in the general election, and neither is likely to want to take orders about how to campaign from the other's staff.

Both Clinton and Obama need the same thing on their ticket: a white male with a military background. Jim Webb would be a good choice if the Dems could replace him with one of their own in the senate. Bill Richardson would also work. I'm sure there are others that would fit the bill as well.

But Obama/Clinton, or Clinton/Obama? That's silliness.

Let's be realistic Clinton would not want Obama as a VP because he would completly outshine her, besides the fact that she doesn't really seem to like him anyways, the only reason she would choose him is because she won't be able to beat McCain without a great likeable VP choice because the independents would more likely go to McCain than her. And Obama would never choose her much less make the suggestion because he doesn't need her to win, he already gets great support from the indepenents, and so many of his supporters can't stand her.

Hold on a minute Hillary. Is it not you on the daily attack with a central arguement that Obama is not ready and does not meet the basic qualifications to be commander in chief??? The Vice President is a heartbeat away from the presidency. Does it not shatter your arguement that Obama is not somehow qualified? If I were Obama i would run an Ad with this. Hillary says i am not ready but then tries to bribe me to be her running mate. The vice pres should be a person also qualified to be president so her crock of doo doo is finally exposed. Boy when are people going to realize that the clintons are all about power. If they somehow steal this from Obama the democratic party might as well dissolve itself. Obama can always make the arguement to the feminists that by voting for mcain they risk overturning Roe vs wade. That should be enough ... Its Obama and the Governer of Arizona or Kansas or Jim Webb/Bill Richardson Hillary is done.

To bad the American people cannot see the coming judgement.
Obama calls himself a Christian yet . goes to the word of God and tries to twist is to say Jesus is for gay unions..
He does not need to be on any tickek; I think the altar would be the best place for both of them
American people, please don't be deceived!!!!

During the last Ohio debate, Obama said his campaign didn't "whine". I think that statement he made is sexist and its intention was to belittle Hillary because she is a woman. Shame on you Obama. I am voting for Hillary for sure.

God help us.

Ed Rendell's comments clearly show why a significant number of Pennsylvania residents believe he is best described as that part of a horse's anatomy covered by its tail.

I think I would have to vote republican if obama was on the ticket.

No way, Ed!. Just because Hillary and her crew are starting to realize they cannot win, doesn't mean Obama owes them anything.

They are trying to bully their way onto the ticket. It won't work.
Your time is up, Hillary.
Better luck next lifetime.

Hillary, Republican VP! Sounds good seeing as how she's already jumping on John Mccain's lap lately.

Reading these blogs... Is it just me or are Obama supporters who claim they want change and unity filled with more negativity and hatred then Clinton supporters. The Obama campaign has certainly launched its share of "Rove Style Politics" . Remember the letters that his campaign sent out about NAFDA and her health care plan?
They really were distortions. I don't see anything new in his approach other then he makes light of the counter attacks to make himself more appealing to those that claim they are tired of negativity in politics. It just seems to me his followers are not very interested in
the ideals and unification of the Democratic Party, but more obsessed with hating Bush and Clinton.

Why does everybody think he should get behind her when the media and others has said there's NO WAY she would be a vp to him......I wonder why, because she thinks she better than him. I HIGHLY dout it!

A Democratic win in the fall is not worth this kind of compremise. The election should provide A REAL CHANGE, if not McCain would be a better decision. The Clinton years have served thier purpose. A lot of us have and are still working hard for CHANGE not a compremise with the Clintons.

Over on the Washington Times newspaper online, they are reporting a $700,000 windfall Bill Clinton received in dealings with Armand Rousso who was recently convicted in some shady dealings. Check out Washington Times online.

I'm still waiting to see something on the Peter Paul vs Clinton campaign finance fraud case in California as we speak. Unlike the Rezko trial that didn't list Obama as a witness – ALL of the Clintons (including Chelsea) are listed as witnesses.

Too many idiots, not enough thinkers. Wake up people. Hillary cannot carry the states she has won in November without carrying the urban centers. That will not happen without BO on the ticket. He will not accept a VP position with her because of who she really is. His stock goes up if he sticks to his principles and works towards effective legislation for the four years she would divide this country. A dream ticket only benefits her and no one else, any ticket with the name HRC on it loses. It is moot however because he will win the nomination unless she gets even dirtier than she has. If she does it will backfire and she still loses. Here's your dream ticket if you really want one........ Obama/Powell '08.

Hilliary Clinton is only concerned with beating Obama up enough so that he would lose in the gerneral election. She knows that she is not going to get the nomination this year so she is looking at 2012.

Obama..all you have to do is maintain Delegates...as you know it is tough for you to win in PA..make sure you do not lose by big margins..as long as you lose by 6-7 points in PA..you are absolutely fine

Gov. Rendell, like Senator Clinton and her supporters, is delusional. A joint ticket with the two of them is NOT what most Americans want to see. These 2 people hold contrasting views, just look at the vast difference in the way they've ran their campaigns. One has taken the honest, respectful and dignified approach, not dipping into the ENORMOUS pool of corruption that is Clintonian politics; the other dug very deeply for scandal and came out with things so petty she ended up looking more desperate than powerful. I will never cast a vote for any ticket Hillary Clinton is on, not even with Obama at the top. And trust me, my sentiments are shared by many. Obama's biggest mistake would be offering or accepting a VP invitation to/from Hillary Clinton. She will be the death of the Democratic party, all because the DNC has not intervened and made her back off, sit down and shut up. She's running this Party into the gound with her "win at all costs" antics, and now she's aligning herself with McCain. Pretty idiotic considering more folks like and trust McCain than they do Hillary. McCain doesn't have to campaign for the next few months because she's doing it for him. Now she sends her surrogates to try and force Obama's hand in agreeing that one of them will be the other's VP? Yea right! I tell you, daily I'm convinced even more that Hillary Clinton is crazy. Too bad the poor, uneducated and Hispanic people don't know enough about politics to have made the right choice in TX and OH.

Barack Obama needs to come out and state that under no circumstances will he run on a ticket with Hillary Clinton. She has shown herself to be who she is... not someone with the integrity or high moral values as Barack Obama. If that is the decision that he makes to run on a ticket with her (either top or bottom), I will not vote for either.

I am a strong supporter of Barack Obama and up until the 60 minutes interview with Hillary, I would have voted for her in the fall if she fairly had won the nomination.

Now I will vote for her "endorsed" person - John McCain if she wins the nomination and I am a life-long Democrate.

That's my message and I am sticking to it!!!

If Obama is on the top of the ticket many people will jump on the McCain bandwagon.

If we look at all the states each candidate has won so far based on electorial votes, Hillary won all the big states and she is way ahead of electorial votes of 220+ to Obama's 160+. This primary is all about who is more electable and the numbers clearly show Hillary is the one. If there will be a joint ticket, Hillary should be on top.

HILLARY 08

I think a Clinton-Obama ticket would be a sure winner for the Democrats but it would only make sense to put Hillary at the head as she has the superior experience. Obama could then use the vice presidency to gain the experience that he is presently lacking and then go on to run for president at a future time.

After Obama gets the nomination, Hillary will become an independent hoping that John McCain will ask her to become his running mate. That is when everyone will know she is a monster.

As Clinton like to say "Obama need a reality Check". I think her supporters are the one in need of a reality check. I don’t know how people can be blind and vote for her. She is not serious, she just want to make history and prolong the Clinton legacy. She always talk about experience, Obama is a more realistic person, to be a commander in chief you don’t only need the experience but you also need good judgment. If you realize McCain is always talking about judgment recently. Can Clinton talk about judgment, she can't of course. With all her experience she led us to a war that is destroying our economy. She is a Washington insider, and I don’t believe she have the right judgment to lead this country. Bottom line, experience you can achieve that in your life time, but good judgment is a skill that is not given to everybody. I want Clinton to list what experience gives her the appropriate skill that will lead to good judgment. Obviously the war in Iraq was a crucial one, and she failed to show good Judgment. The phone wasn’t ringing , she was awake when she vote d yes for the Iraq War. Obama is the candidate that will fight for our interest as a country and restoring our reputation in the world.

Spell it out to me, how has Obama been sexist? Anyone? Some of the reasons for disparaging remarks against Obama are ludicrous! Obama's ads focus on QUOTATIONS CLINTON HAS MADE! You can't lie when they are quotations people!

Here's one quote of hers from 10/10/02:

"And perhaps my decision is influenced by my eight years of experience on the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue in the White House watching my husband deal with serious challenges to our nation. I want this President, or any future President, to be in the strongest possible position to lead our country in the United Nations or in war. "

Her 8 years experience in the White House was from watching her husband. Now she takes credit for what he did. That's equivalent to lying on one's resume.

By the way, that was her speech for voting to trust Bush when he was going into Iraq. POOR JUDGMENT ALL AROUND!

The only way Clinton would offer to have Obama has her VP would be to get the African American votes because she has developed as a bad taste in our mouths and without our vote she will lose!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nuwan, she's losing and she knows it. If she does NOT win Pennsylvania with a HUGE lead, she can't get ANYWHERE NEAR catching up. She's trying to ask Obama indirectly to choose her as a VP.

Hillary Clinton doom herself when she said she and mc cain is some what the same.Well she forget to mention george w bush.Obama for president.

Just in, Washington Times reports a $700,000 windfall Bill Clinton received in dealings with Armand Rousso who was recently convicted in some shady dealings. Check out Washington Times online.

If Clinton and Obama were smart, they would stop providing fuel for Mccain to attack either one of them. Instead, they should both refocus their energies specifically on Mccain until the voters resolve who should be their Democratic nominee.
Negative attacking your way to the top just sounds like a really creepy way to be the Democratic nominee. Repairing the party by ganging up on Mccain sounds like a better plan.
So get to it!

This ticket would ensure Democrats in the Whitehouse for the next 16 years. This ticket scares the hell out of the republicans.

Look beyond the petty politics and think of the good of the country.

My husband and I just moved back to Texas from Philadelphia, and I find Ed Rendell to be a repulsive human being. He preys on the gambling habits of the poor to fund his special interest projects in PA. There is a reason why he's referred to as "Fast Eddie". I think it's very appropriate that he's promoting the HillBill-ies, and I hope it works to Obama's favor.

He can push all he wants. Hillary is poison. A Monster, no! The one word I would use is simply "dishonest."

There's no way they will reconcile this mess. We have no choice but to nominate Barack. She can go back to the Senate.

OMG, Andrew that is what I have been trying to say about Rendell. He is a RACIST and a career criminals like the Clintons. He is involved in that Clinton, Peter Paul mess too.

CHARLOTTE

What are you talking about? Clearly your old age has diminished your brain cells.

Hej Ed?

You guys in Pennsylvania must be getting pretty desperate – thought you were going to deliver the State in big fashion to Hillary. Let the campaigns stand on their own merit, have the candidaets exercise integrity and transparency (bonus points here for the resignation of Ms. Powell) (minus two or three for Hillary and Bill not releasing their tax returns or White House papers).... and let the People decide.

This is what the democratic process is all about. Not superdelegates and back-room deals of the Old Days.

There're better, honest, women democrats that Obama can choose for VP. Hillary Clinton is just devising and pure evil. We need to show her and the rest of the Karl Roves in this country that the American people are not going to take it anymore. I’ll vote for Obama in the General election if he peaks any other women except for Hillary Clinton. She is so evil that most likely will try to kill Obama in order to be President. Yes, she is that evil.

Hillary, and independent Joe should will both try to be John McCain's vice president. Obama will will get the nomination. The monster will then become an independent.

I would NEVER NEVER NEVER vote for Obama. NOT EVEN an Obama/Clinton ticket. I will vote for McCain if he's the nominee. End of story.

This is a thinly-veiled attempt by Sen. Clinton to court voters on the fence – "Hey, vote for me and you'll get both of us!" Furthers the truth that she will do anything to get the nomination. Hopefully voters will not be convinced by this pandering. What's next? Vote for me and I'll deport George Bush! She's beginning to sound like a used car saleswoman.

I will NOT vote for a democrat if Hillary steals this election through dirty tricks, slander and the usual Clintonian tactics. This 65 year old and all her friends and family made a pledge after the Ohio behavior of the Clintons, that it is now Obama or no democrat for us in November. And shame on CNN for Wolf Blitzer and his biased coverage!! I won't vote for YOU either, Wolf!

Hillary knows she has no chance of winning in Nov. without Obama being on her ticket. That's why she and all of her little friends keep pressing the issue.
Obama 08

Obviously all the Republicans who voted for Obama must have gotten confused on their directions from Limbaugh, Cunningham, et al regarding their need to vote for Clinton as they view her as much more of a formidable candidate to beat their McCain (NOT!!!).

haha, go LES! GO OBAMA!

Ed,

Keep your mouth closed.
I used to like you until you tried to speak for our entire state saying we would never elect a black candidate.
Nothing less than ignorant.....as is your decision to back Clinton, who lies and postures and plays dirty just to get power.
She's a woman who's got you wrapped around her little finger.
If you cared about this state.....you'd want a good, honest and consistant candidate who we KNOW we could depend on.
Obama is for the people, Hillary is out for power and a paycheck to add to the Clinton's already suspicious 12-million-dollar-a year-income. Did she promise you something???

Why don't she do us a favor and take Rendell with her! We don't want him anymore. If Obama is anywhere on the ticket this independent will have to hold my nose and vote for McCain.

It doesn't matter. McCain will beat them both like drums. Vacuous and insanely ambitious, Obama and Clinton are new lows in democrats.

"THE DEVIL IS A LIAR. DON'T LISTEN TO HIM" - The Exorcist

. . .I think that Barack supporters should just ignore everything Hillary
says from now on and just stay focused on the message of change from this
political nonsense. She has absolutely no control over your vote. Just
go a vote for Barack with a smile on your face knowing that you didn't
let her rattle you.

Obama 08.

Well it goes to show that hillary is not ready on day one,she need Rendell , bill and all her top adviser to the Clinton campaign,

Hillary is LOSING. And losign big. 150 delegates and she will not be able to catch up.

Maybe Obama will pick her for VP, but not after she is so ugly and negative.

I think some of HRC's supporters are frankly racists, and can't envision a black at the top of the ticket. They see minorities as a token "sidekick" .

Sorry, ti won't work.

She's lost. He's won. She may get VP if she drops out sooner rather than later and stops the sleaze.

I think that everyone should stop giving cnn or msnbc or fox any of their attention, until they report the news correctly, and not like the tabliod company they each have become. The Clintons, have gotten to them and the proof is the slant reporting by each of these tabliod companies. Also, have anyone notice how they each report the same story at the same time on the same day...the same story. These tabloid news company really need a reality check, so everyone who believe in the free press, leave these make believers along. Make them report news. Tell whomever is your pleasure to know to rebuke these companies.

Republicans delight in our bickering. Republicans don't want us to have a dream ticket. They wouldn't have a chance.

Senator Clinton is the only one of the two candidates that will be able to stand up to McCain.

Obama has too little experience.

Think about it:
Obama's name became an issue from the Republicans
Resko became an issue because his trial date began on the eve of the last set of primaries

This is not Hillary doing this. Hillary just is saying that he can't compare to her 35 years of experience.

I don't know of any job or business that you can expect to be President of without many years of working for it.

Be real America.

Hillary is the best for a Democratic nominee in this election.

I want someone that offers healthcare for ALL Americans.
I want someone experienced to be able to stand up to the Republicans
I want someone that can fight for us...

Stop knocking her and start thinking with your brain and hire her for the most important job in the World.

I'm sure Obama is saying all the things everyone wants to hear.
Hillary just knows better.

The biggest change EVER would be to have a woman in the White House. All presidents have been men.

You Go Girl! She's the best!

A joint ticket – picture that. Obama and Hillary scratching each other's eyes out. In the background, there's Obama's buddy and indicted contributor, Rezko, taking bets and giving odds on who's going to win.

Dear CNN, did Hillary really say on Wednesday that "she thinks" the campaign is heading towards a joint ticket, or are those your words? I read the transcript, and Clinton clearly did NOT SAY she "thinks" or "thought" that that was what is going to happen. She said it is a possibility. Can you please move beyond sloppy, biased reporting, and just state the facts? We'd all appreciate it. I would start by re-reading the interview transcripts from Wednesday.

Spell it out to me, how has Obama been sexist? Anyone? Some of the reasons for disparaging remarks against Obama are ludicrous! Obama's ads focus on QUOTATIONS CLINTON HAS MADE! You can't lie when they are quotations people!

The point of this is that Rendell threw his lot in with Hillary when she was ahead. He is in his second term as governor and he declared a long time ago that he was not going to run for state office again. He openenly stated that his ideal position is as secretary of energy.
Political insiders agree that Hillary does not have a realistic chance of getting the nomination without splitting the party because of the delagate/ popular vote math. He is doing this to insure he can get a job in the administration. If Hillary wins the state but is not in the next administration, he is out of a job.

Yes, We need a White house for Sale. The cost to buy the Clinton is high and yes America is in NEED of a President who CAN be Bought and SOLD. JUST ONE THING AMERICA WANTS TO KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE IS BUYING THE CLINTON'S.

The decision to withhold the documents could be used by critics who say Clinton and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton haven't fully released documents to the public. Bill Clinton issued 140 pardons on his last day in office, including an especially controversial one for Marc Rich, a commodies trader who was a fugitive wanted on tax evasion charges.

I will NEVER, NEVER, NEVER VOTE FOR HILLARY CLINTON AS PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE. SHE IS TOO DECEITFUL, TOO PETTY, AND TOO REPUBLICAN. SHE LOVE JOHN MCCAN SO MUCH WHY DON'T SHE GET A TICKET WITH HIM. The only joint ticket I will vote on is Obama/Clinton not Clinton/Obama. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

As an Obama supporter I wouldn't mind an Obama/ Clinton ticket but not the other way around. She doesn't have the vision that he does. I think it needs to be decided immediately after Pennsylvania.

"In chess, it's always the losing opponent that wants to offer a draw."

I like your analogy, Stan!

Sorry Nuwan, Hillary's offer isn't because she is any more morally considerate of the democratic national party. She realizes that she cannot win this thing but still wants to play in the White House. That is why is made this offer and that is why he shouldn't accept it. Her manipulation is not what this country needs, we need someone with good values, sound judgement and great political vision. I will take Richardson easily over Hillary.

Hillary is Iago to Obama's Othello

Disgusting. Hillary has been spewing sewage and people want to put her on the ticket. Forget it!! NO WAY!! I WILL NOT HAVE HER 'SHOVED DOWN MY THROAT'!

SHE HAS PROVEN ABSOLUTELY THAT SHE WOULD NOT MAKE A GOOD PRESIDENT... THUS MUST NOT BE A VICE PRESIDENT.

SHE IT NOT ENTITLED TO ANYTHING AND I CANNOT SUPPORT HER BEING ON THE TICKET IN ANY WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM....

SHE HAS GONE BEYOND LOSING MY RESPECT...TODAY THE GARBAGE SHE IS SPEWING LITERALLY TURNED MY STOMACH. i AM COMPLETELY DISGUSTED!!!

I think Hillary Clinton should accept VP from Mccain. In recent weeks, all she talked about is how Mccain is the better candidate. All she have is praises for Mccain and lies against Obama when she knew quite well that her camp contacted the Canadians. It is really sad that she has so much disrespected Obama. Obama don't take the joint ticket, she can not be trusted.

She is saying that to save face...if he is inexperience why would she want to be his VP, Hilary will do and say anything to win. She is either running on her husband's record or Mccain's record. Hillary cannot stand on her own...there are able women out there. She is too polarizing for government...how can she claim foreign experience..a lot of leaders will undermine her cunning attitude. Democrates who are ready to vote for Mccain will only get what the deserve more Bush war and economics, Hilary supporters put your egos in check!

In reference to an interview she gave a day or two ago that hinted at a Clinton/Obama ticket: I don't see how the person who is currently behind and will very likely remain behind can start suggesting that the frontrunner can be her #2. Does anyone else get that? I mean, I guess it's smart of her to act like that so the uneducated Americans hear her words and think, oh, she's winning. But hopefully people are more intelligent than that.

Clinton's brother, Hugh Rodham, about $200,000 to lobby the White House for pardons – one for a drug conviction and one for mail fraud and perjury convictions, according to a 2002 report by the House committee on government reform. After the payments came to light, Bill Clinton issued a statement: "Neither Hillary nor I had any knowledge of such payments," the report said.

The pardon records released by the library divulge little that might settle debate about those and other pardons. But they do shed new light on the volume of clemency requests that former president Clinton received – and the pressures he and his staff faced as friends, advisers, political leaders and foreign heads of state weighed in to influence which petitions would be granted.

This is another CHEAP trick by the Clintons. Make it appear as though you'll get both candidates if you choose her.
She IS a monster!

We CAN NOT TRUST Hillary.

Hillary's grandstanding. Like she did with the Mich and Fla voters. She would never stand for a vice-president who is more popular than her.

Well McCain should just be crowned now. The party is so divided over these two that even a joint ticket is likely to fail. A clinton/obama ticket would make some sense for a 16 year run but obama would lose his "change" motif and obama is more likely to win the nomination anyway. A obama/clinton ticket is more likely to win, even though it might unify most of the party too many will be disenfranchised and to many independents will run away at the possibility of another Clinton in the white house. Oh well here is to Peak Oil hitting hard in the next 4 years and the economy as a result falling like a skydiver with a lead parachute, then McCain will end up being Herbert Hoover (outed because of great depression) perfect time for obama's "change" style... as long as Hilary stays in put in 4 years time.

Ahhh, Hillary HAS NOT MADE THIS OFFER to Obama. Her lacky has "suggested" it. READ the ARTICLE.

Obama/Clinton '08!

Ok, Hill, you've been JUST annoying enough that I guess you deserve the VP spot. Just cut with all the vitriol already! No one needs another Joe 'send the troops in' Lieberman . . .

This much is clear - at this point, if the superdelegates go against the people (which I don't see happening), then Hillary would have no choice but to ask Obama to be VP.

IF Obama gets the nom, which I think will happen, he cannot offer the vp to Hillary. It's political suicide, because she stands for the exact opposite for what Obama stands for (ethics reform, moving on from the politics of yesterday, fighting special interests etc...). Obama will be seen as a hipocrite - he needs a VP who shares his vision for a better America.

And, yes, I'm one of those "moron" or "idiot" Obama supporters, as I've been called by so many Hillary supporters in the blog. The thing is though, I have Ph.D. and am able to think critically and logically. So stop calling Obama supports idoits and morons, because we're not!

Yuck. She'd try taking over the White House if she were in the VP spot. What a monster.

I think she's getting ready so that it dosen't look like a total loss when Obama wins the nomination. This way she's preparing to set herself up to run with him. I feel like her comments show her insecurities and his show his confidence. He dosen't want to bother talking about it because he's going to win! She really needs to bow out gracefully and work to bring the party together instead of tearing it apart!

Obama supporters hammer, hammer,hammer on Hillary Clinton, like the repub. right-wing did and still does, to absolutely no avail.
What Obama supporters fail to realize, yet Republicans know, is that we HRC supporters(over 13 million of us so far) are inured to anything negative you might say about her. We have heard it all before, and for years. Yet we still think she is the best choice for this country.
I think what causes you Obama supporters so much angst, and venomous frustration, is that you really know nothing of import about Obama, and are scared to death of what is out there. You will not have to wait long, it will come!

Why are all the Obama supporters so hateful in their comments? You can call a successful woman any bad, violent name you like and it is still OK in this country. What kind of new(old) cult is this?

Fight the sexist remarks Hillary and don't stop.

I would have been much more open to this thought process had Senator Clinton and her campaign not gone so negative, and most importantly lied ever step along the way leading up to RI, VT, Ohio, and Texas....

Senator Obama is the change this country needs, he will carry every democratic blue state in the fall w/ overwhelming numbers, not to mention several swings states and maybe another "red" state such as FLORIDA!

Obama 08!

HRC's 35 years of experience:

1. Worked for a corporate law firm.
2. Served on WalMart board and had no issues with the labor policies there.
3. Formulated a disastrous health care plan that postponed universal coverage for years.
4. Had tea with foreign leaders.
5. Voted for the war
6. Scandal after scandal. Why oh why?
7. Within a couple of years managed to lose both the house and the senate due to vindictive and divisive politics

Experience we can count on?

how can you be offering a vice presidency to someone you are honoured to be with on stage and shame on you barack obama in less than two days. i obama accepts vp from her its a mistake because it,ll be a poisonous gift. the clintons after their tenure will pull one of their scandals and obama will have al gore in his hands he should not take it. if he wins hecan choose joe biden or governor tim kaine of va, or some other decent and principled candidate without baggage.

ain't happen my friend. I guess white people would not vote for obama in our state sir. you should be ashame of yourself governor. I no it is America and I no racisim is at a forefront of what you do down there but for a governor to come out that way it is a shame for America and its good people

I think that the Democrat should let this primary go all the way, it would serve them better than the Rep – such a move would give McCain less time to attack the Democrat candidate because he would not have known in-advance who to prepare for. Obama keep the faith good always win in the end.

CLINTON 08 – OBAMA NEXT. It is a win/win and makes the most sense given their experience and potential and ages.

I am just surprise how many people (mainly from HRC camp) is now calling to stop personal attacks and be nice to each other when HRC nasty campaign before Ohio and Texas had already results which she wanted to have and Obama lost. Is he suppose to be nice guy and wait until HRC has 50% lead built on faulty and dirty campaign? I don't think so. He needs to be tough and ask all questions (requesting answers now not after primaries) to show voters which kind of character his opponent is. Joint ticket is just another trick nothing else. Barack Obama doesn't need her but she has not much choices.

Yeah, cause Obama really needs an obsessive, micromanaging, Mean-spirited and deceitful, highly negative politician on the ticket to win? Come on. As long as it is only a gesture, then maybe.

This woman hillary is so vile and dispecable as we've come to see over the last three weeks. Every comment she makes and every one of her gestures is just another under handed, decietful trick.

This one is no exception. A vote for Hillary is NOT a vote for Barack.

let s be realistic they need each other to win in november , if they go by thereself they will nnnot winn because the party is cut in 2 allready .....

"Most young people have no idea what it was like to be a female in the sixties."
Quit living in the past! Should the whole country elect Clinton because a bunch of women felt disenfranchised 40 years ago? Should you be 'compensated' by a female president just because of the time in which you lived? Sounds like you are actually jealous of all the freedom women have gained and are still carrying a big grudge.

I don’t think Obama can win the General Election in November based on the following points:
1. The US is not ready to accept an African-American as a President yet. Obama got more voters is due to the fact that there is no strong male candidates in the campaign. However, this will be changed in the General Election.
2. Obama got more voters from the independent and republican groups. These voters, especially from the latter, will partially come back to support McCain in November, since they think Obama (inexperience) is weaker than Clinton.

This ticket would not work at all either way. Hillary's polarizing figure would do more harm to Obama's chances at ever becoming President. She has thrown everything at Obama saying he's not qualified among other things. But now he's qualified to be her VP. I think we can all see through this ploy. She tryig to make people think that a vote for her is also a vote for Obama, knowing full well she has no plans to offer him the VP slot. How could she just forget everything nasty she's said about him, and then raise her hand with him on a stage. How would he be able to now talk "good" (which there is none) about her after how she's trying to bring him down now. The party is broken, she knows it. To keep all the enthusiasm that he's brought to the Democratic party, she's trying to play to that base. All that enthusiasm would be lost if it is perceived that she "stole" the nomination vs win it. I'm a lifelong Democrat who voted for Bill twice. My party has let me down. I'm looking to change my registration to Independent.

PLEASE don't do it Obama. Please don't go over the the Clinton's darkside. The Clintons are unethical and corrupt.

Clinton should take the vice-president role. She could use her attack dog tactics at Obama's discretion.

Now who is fairy tailing ???

If she is the nominee and given the lies she has pulled to get it, I will stay at home before voting for her!!! NO WAY!!!!

She needs him he don't need her.

Don't believe the hype! This woman will do or say anything to become the next president. I wouldn't be surprised if she started offering Bill the VP role. We have a greater chance in hell for that happening vs. a Clinton/Obama ticket!

Did anyone see the Canadian government apologizing to Obama for calling him instead of the other way around. They also said it was HILLARY CLINTON's campaign who called them with the wink and a nod comment about not worrying about any repeal of NAFTA. We haven't heard a word from Clinton apologizing to Obama for accusing him of dirty politics when in fact it was Hillary.

Obama doesn't have to degrade himself by acting like Hillary but he needs to stop acting so cool and use Hillary's own words and actions against her. I know he's trying not to stoop as low as Hillary is and continues to be but Obama needs to remember he's dealing with a candidate who is amoral.....

Hillary is also playing right into the Republican's hands who want Hillary as the nominee because they know they can beat her and not Obama. Just listen to Fox and other right wing shows. They're laughing and happy that Hillary finally won 3 after losing 12 in a row.

Hillary has now proven she is a divider not a uniter who will never respect the will of the people before her own blind ambition to be president at all costs, even if that means discounting and denying our votes.

McCain/ Clinton 2008

frankly...i would like to see a CLINTON/EDWARDS ticket. does that make me a racist too? it seems that everyone who does not think that OBAMA is ready to be president is branded a racist on this board. i think OBAMA seems like a really great guy and i think he may make a good president some day. but not now. this country needs someone with CLINTON's intelligence and fighting spirit.

I don't think it will happen do to the fact there has been to many bad things said about eachother. If it did happen i think that it would be the strongest Presidence in History, But as you know men think with there privates not there brain.

i totally agree with James that obama should pick a female VP (certainly not billary). also, his government should be bipartisan to truly reflect his message of unity.

actually, i think i should be posting this on his campaign site!!!

i just love this man called Obama

The winning ticket from day one was Edwards/Obama, but now that the Dems have successfully ran Edwards out of the race, I now support Obama. Hillary is a liablity to the party, and it would be political suicide for Obama to team up with her in any such instance.

Great idea, BUT...I feel that Hillary Clinton has crossed that respect line that you draw in a position of this nature.. Why have someone as your VP when they've mounted more nasty attacks against you than your real competition in '08...

Will never work. The Clinton campaign, headed by Hillary Clinton has managed to distory the respect many held for the Clinton's, and the democratic party as a whole. Two weeks ago, most people I know would have supported either Hillary or Barak; now, we would support McCain before we voted for Hillary. We don't agree with McCain politics; however, he is honest and respectfull. With my crowd, and our adult children, that goes a long way.

We will not support a candidate who can, and will, look in the face of the nation and lie, again. enough already.

HILLARY HAS BURNT HER BRIDGES BEHIND HER. SHE WENT NEGATIVE AND CONTINUES TO BE NEGATIVE. NOW SHE THROWING OUT BAIT TO SEE IF HE WILL BITE SO SHE CAN STAB HIM IN THE BACK AGAIN. NO THANKS . OBAMMA 08 OR 2012 BUT NOT WITH HER.

NO BUSH

NO CLINTON

NO NO Clinton in the White House!

Clinton can go and run with McCain since she likes McCain MORE than the people in her own party. She has NO integrity!

I agree with Gov. Rendell.

We need to unite. This will give Senator Obama 8 years of experience in the VP capacity; which will make him the best and strongest contendor for the Presidency in 2016.

Hillary/Obama '08

OMG!!!!! It is true!!!! PeterPaul.com!!!!! Wow, I thought it was a joke!!! So how come no one talks about this lawsuit and what the Clinton's have done!!!! And they talk about Obama?????? Wish I could be a fly on the wall when they actually go to court!!!! And we want Hillary Clinton for PRESIDENT WHY?????

And how clean is this campaign???

This is great. I am happy that Hillary made that offer. Obama has to remember that, democratic party is almost equally divided in its support for him and Hilary. But he didn't have the guts to make that gesture even as a possibility. Shame on Obama. But Hilary shows a great statementship by accepting the fact that their is a big chunck of democrats support Obama so that getting him onboard is the best thing to win in Nov. I think the best hope for democrats is to run with a join ticket so we can win.

That's the ONLY WAY I would EVER, EVER, EVER vote for Obama.... if he was the VP. I'd rather give my vote to McCain in Nov if Obama is the Presidential nominee. Together they stand a very good chance to obliterate the republican party. Clinton alone could make a decisive win, but Obama won't.... too many republicans that voted for Obama in the primaries will vote for McCain in Nov. I don't know who the Obama campaign thinks they're fooling.

I hope Clinton will reject the VP position if offered. One can not "mend" fences and play nice after blatant insults and barrage of sexist attacks. I don't think these attacks on her and the insults would stop if she is a VP for Obama. Even worse, she would become a target for taken fault for all his mistakes.

I hope Obama already have a vp in sight .Wow is this the Clinton campaign way of saying again that Obama dont no what to do,and he need a toter on day one.Wow how low will the Clinton campaign go.

I think that the Dem should let this primary go all the way, it would serve them better than the Rep – such a move would give McCain less time to attack the Dem candidate because he would not have known in-advance who to prepare for.

The heat is on...the DNC is sweating bullets! They are now forced to choose between the old predictable cow,and a hitherto unknown goose that now lays the golden egg. A choice they never thought they will have to make. Sorry guys, you can't eat your cake and have it. A Clinton/Obama or Obama/Clinton ticket is just what it is, a dream, and John McCain is the alarm clock!

On paper, a joint Democratic ticket (Obama-Clinton or Clinton-Obama) might make sense in order to heal the divisions in the Party and galvanize enthusiasm and energy for the national campaign against the Republicans. However, I predict that this will never materialize. Hillary will not accept being second fiddle to Barack (her outsized political ego would not permit this). On the other hand, Barack would jeopardize his future presidential prospects by agreeing to become Hillary's running mate + he would have to be constantly looking over his shoulders in the White House to see what Bubba Bill is up too!

If Hillary wins the Prim Where would her voting strength come from
all Obama support will not support her after all the dirty remarks and lies she has told
All you black voter should remenber where you came from Ist there was Man then was a woman but never the less you were born black and 21 years later you were a man or woman so lets do the right thing
Man before woman
For Rendell to make a comment about white in PA are not ready to vote Black? Who helped him get where he is?
As for a Leader of a black organization NAACP and backing a White woman whetre does that put you " OUT" I'm afraid you power is gone man. You should practice what you preach.

Pennsylvania... do not fall for the same dirty Clinton tricks that she pulled in Ohio!

Vote Obama April 22nd for REAL CHANGE AND TO RESTORE HOPE in America!

OBAMA '08!!!

An Arkansas state legislator once said of Bill Clinton that he would pat you on the back while he urinated down your leg. The corollary for Clinton's wife Hillary could be that she will tell the world how honored she is to share a stage with Barack Obama even as she's gearing up to smash him. When it comes to politics, the Clinton philosophy is simple: It's war, and wars are for winning. Bill put it this way, back in 1981: "When someone is beating you over the head with a hammer, don't sit there and take it. Take out a meat cleaver and cut off their hand."

Clinton will never win the white house and she does not want another democrate to win. She hopes that Mccain wins so that she can run in 4 years...but for what party, I bet you she will loose her senate seat. If democrates are not smart enough to end this now, they will not only destroy their party but, blue collar voters who gave in to fear tactics have more to loose with a Mccain presidency. A vote for hillary now is a vote for Mccain in Nov. The republicans know this and democrates are in denial. You can support Clinton for all you can but she will never be president..if superdelegates vote her in then they will alienate the young votes, independents and majority of the black vote that the democratic party always count on. With Obama, the independents and new voters will cancel out the defactor clitonites, with Hillary its back to blue and red states, guess who won in in 2000 and 2004.

Don't play into her tricks, it is a tactic to get votes from Obama.

They are a master at this game, she makes you believe what she want you to believe. These are the Clinton's who will do anything to win the White House.

She is a Rep hiding behind the Dem banner.

A joint ticket with either of them on the top would have been the dream-ticket for the democrats. But after Hillary's kitchen sink strategy in the past two weeks she has turned this ticket into a train wreck ticket.

Voters should also know that Rendell is one of the politicians mentioned in her up-coming trail for Campaign Finance Fraud– at which she will be forced to testify in October, (though, so far she has managed to duck the subpoena)

There is no way Obama would run with Clinton. There is a lawsuit against the Clintons right now, as we speak. The Clintons stand for everything Obama is trying to be against as far as ethics and transparency go. Its not about holding out an Olive branch its about being smart and Hillary Clinton on the ticket would undermine his efforts to clean up Washington. HE DOES NOT NEED HER!

The person with more delegates should be candidate for president. It's looking like it's Obama. If Obama picks Hillary for VP, she'll snuff him out somehow and coronate herself. Look at all the dirty tricks she's done, do you trust her? I would look towards Edwards or even Richardson or Lou Dobbs!!! Lou Dobbs can still report to us but from the white house, that will be great!!! He should take along Mr. Cafferty. I like that guy, too!!!

If Mccain runs with Romney, that's a great ticket for republicans. Crist looks too old and nobody knows much about him and he looks too feminine!!

The fact is if Obama is not the nominee and so far he's earned it with hard work with his wins, black americans will stay home after realising the dirty tricks of the clintons. The only huge vote base for the clintons will be the illegal aliens!!

GIVE IT A REST .HILARY HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE CANADIAN DEBACLE.............

I'm sure that the Hillarminator would love to soothe the millions she has alienated with her malicious campaign. I think its pretty offensive to go against the will of the people and then try to clear youir conscience with a consolation prize. Even Bush didn't try to buy off Gore after stealing the election 7 years ago.

How can Cinton have Obama as her running mate when she says Obama is not ready to be commander-in-chief? The VP is second in line to the president.

Don't even ask!!! Hillary.

Sorry about the double post, my daughter hit the keyboard. What fun they are at 2 years old.

Obama isn't going negatibe he's getting more aggressive in his stance against Hillary and it's about time!!!!

This MOVEMENT IS ALIVE!!! If you believe in unity then you must vote for Obama!!

Can't everyone see what she's up to again? She rips apart Obama as not being ready to be president but thinks she'd offer him the VP slot if she gets the nomination. What nerve!!! Here's why, though:

1. If she doesn't get the nomination but tears him apart so much that he'll lose to McCain, then she can run in 2012 using the theme, "I told you I should have been the nominee".

2. By tearing Obama down, she'll make it impossible for him to accept the VP offer since she'll have to have stolen the nomination from him. This will give her a built in excuse for losing to McCain. "It's all Obama's fault not my sky high negative ratings with the electorate or the fact that I destroyed the party to get what was rightfully mine in the first place."

All of you Hillary defenders need to wake up and do some electoral math. No red state turns blue for Hillary and some blue states will turn red because of Hillary. All independants will vote McCain over Hillary and she'll drag all down ballot Democrats down to defeat with her.

Ed Rendell is an Tammany Hall style political hack who is probably angling for the VP spot if Hillary is the Democratic nominee.

WHY would Obama want HER as the VP with all the baggage she and Slick Willy would bring? Obama should select a Democrate with a strong military and/or foreign policy background.

If Obama gets the ticket I will probably stay home in November.

You Obamanites are unreal. You say he is great because he will "unite the country". Not hardly. Anything he does you say is oh so altruistic and anything Hillary does must have nefarious motives (yes, go get your dictionary to look up the meanings...).

If we end up with a junior president with people advising him like this Nasty woman with her "Monster" comments that she made to a FOREIGN PAPER while advising on FOREIGN POLICY – well – it won't be my fault any more than the last 7 1/2 years have been.

I THINK HILARY SHOULD PICK COLIN POWELL FOR HER VP............

Oh, Hell No. She would taint his ticket after her recent despicable tactics.

I think at the rate Hillary is going ,saying all those nice things about John McCain, we won't have to worry about Hillary or Barack being president. Hillary has set the stage for President McCain with all her good will and praise. Good going Hillary!!!!!!

Everyone keeps talking about Hillary winning the big states that are needed to win the general but these have been nomination processes. In the general they will run against a Republican and those states may work very differently then. The DNC strategy has been to re-create the electoral map. This is the strategy that Obama has taken and why he considers every state important. In retrospect, I bet HRC wishes she would have done the same.

I will not vote for any tix that Hillary's name appears on. Hillary Clinton has poor morals and lacks the character to be my leader. I'm a member of the miltary and completely understand what it takes to be a Commander in Chief. Hillary does not come close to the min requirement . Its not about exp but character. Why would I put my life on the line for someone like Hillary. She only cares about herself, she divides people based on race and gender, and lacks the character to inspire our nation's warriors to fight. The Clintons have lied, cheated and stolen their way to power. Now people want them to rep us to the world once again. How many scandals and lies will it take before the country understand that the Clintons are the worst thing to happen to American politics since E. Hoover or Andrew Jackson. Bill Clinton dishonored the office of the Commander in Chief because of his poor morals and character. Now there are those whom want to give another Clinton with poor character an opportunity to do the same thing.

Obama/Powell in 08

I'm not a huge fan of the Obama/Clinton ticket, but it would be a good way to pull the Clinton supporters in. There is no way it will be a Clinton/Obama ticket – she cannot catch up in the delegates. News out now that the delegates in texas will likely make Obama the winner of that state. He also picked up some more from California today.

Hillary has no chance at all. Even as a VP, i don't think it will benefit Obama. Obama should hold it out and he will win. There is nothing Hillary can do. Even if she wins all 12 states with 55% and 60% (PENN) she will still lose.

Quit now Hillary before you destroy the party.

Obama/Webb 08

are you kidding me??? clinton is doing her best to make this soooo ugly and try to hurt Sen. Obama's standing just so she doesnt get left behind when he wins..... she would rather try to tear down the DNC through in fighting for her own gain than lose on her lack of votes...... now she is getting anyone and everyone she can to try to ride his popularity back to the white house........... since when is losing a 20-something lead in the polls to just barely win some kind of positive thing???? now she is playing the "experience card" ........what??? does she not know that mccain has more experience then her??? DUH!! I say let Sen. Obama win fair and square and then he can
ask EDWARDS!!!! OBAMA & EDWARDS IN 08!!!!!

WHERE ARE YOUR TAX RETURNS HIL?

Here in Canada there is a lot of concern about the leak from our government regarding the NAFTA issue. It has been made clear here that Clinton should not have been mentioned at all because it was Obama whose advisor went to the consulate in Chicago and gave 'background' in an effort to allay fears regarding Obama's position on NAFTA. One wonders why that advisor hasn't been fired for his role in this whole issue. It is probably because he was acting on instructions from his candidate. You all need to get real about what you are doing and how clumsily Obama handled this whole situation. International relationships are on the line.

A joint ticket is no longer feasible. Too much damage has been done especially by the Hillary campaign team. Such a joint ticket will make a mockery of the American political system.

Regretably, Hillary has pulled out any credibility that such arrangement can ever hope to achieve. A loss for the Democrats.

Obama should for go for it alone. Both Hillary and McCain cannot stop the tide. Change has come !

As a former PA. resident and Rendell supporter, I can tell you that knowone know's how to read the Tea Leaf's better that Ed Rendell. However, in this case Hillary Clinton's feeling of entitlement to the nomination and the dirty politics of her campaign has driven a wedge between democrats that will ultamitly destroy the party forever. The reason there will not be a dual ticket is because the voters who were being told for the past several years to support Hillary Clinton have had buyers remorse, which resulted in Obama winning twelve states in a row during the primary resulting in a 100 point delegate lead. Clinton knew the voters were being set up when Mhiagan and Florida pushed their primarys up. That was the time for her to say the voters were wronged. Not now, when she's losing. The current Philly Mayor, Mike Nutter and Rendell both looked like fools standing there behind Clinton in support back in January and will be called on the carpet after they see the Philly support for Barack Obama.

IF by chance Clinton steals this nom from you...do not accept an invitation to be her Veep...you could run again after McCain messes up his four years!!! She needs you to win, you do not need a polarizing figure like her...

Tell Hillary where she can go.

Please, for the love of democracy this Dream Ticket needs to happen. Obama would greatly benefit by having Clinton as her Veep because the bottom line is, she is tenacioius, knowledgeable, and efficient. Her policy beliefs are the same as Obama's, and so there wouldn't be any undermining.

On the flip, Obama carries youthful enthusiasm of the future. He would have time to cultivate his talen, his young supporters will be 8 years older, and he will definetly be ready for the Presidency. This will guarntee 16 years of Democratic America. What a dream come true that would be.

the obamabots think that anybody that isn't with them is against them. sound like anybody we know?

IF by chance Clinton steals this nom from you...do not accept an invitation to be her Veep...you could run again after McCain messes up his four years!!! She needs you to win, you do not need a polarizing figure like her...

Hillary is clearly a winner in this issue. Her gesture and political charm is way over Obama. She is a uniter, she would consider to take Obama as her VP to unite the Democrate Party although she may have better VP candidates.

Obama is the exact opposite of it. Not a surprise to me at all. LOL, he is a hypocrite.

IN RESPONSE TO CHARLOTTE:

What are you talking about?!! Affirmative action did NOT benefit minority males more than white females. Check the stastics on women partners at law firms compared to minority male partners at firms, women managers versus minority male managers, etc. This isn't a competition, but women get the benefits of affirmative action, while minorities (especially Blacks) are used as the scapegoats for the affirmative action backlash. White women join the chorus of the backlash – that minorities are not qualified and only get jobs because they are minorities – and act as if their gender had nothing to do with them getting where they are.

IF by chance Clinton steals this nom from you...do not accept an invitation to be her Veep...you could run again after McCain messes up his four years!!! She needs you to win, you do not need a polarizing figure like her

LOL....this is really getting more funny.....Just like a women......If you cant get it all the way after you've tried your best ....LOL.....settle for half....LOL...wake up Hillary .....this is not one off your women movement going on girl....your playing in a game where not only women are involed but men to....and if you are a real women you know when to play your cards so everyone wins.......use the strong mind God bless us women to have......if you know what I'm talking about.......Stop the madness

The sooner Clinton and Obama can unite, the better it will be for the Democratic Party. The longer they stay divided, the worse it becomes for the Democrats.

Remember, it is the Democratic Party's Election to Lose and as of right now, they are doing a good job of sabotaging themselves.

IF by chance Clinton steals this nom from you...do not accept an invitation to be her Veep...you could run again after McCain messes up his four years!!! She needs you to win, you do not need a polarizing figure like her!

All Democrats:

Please ask yourselves whether there would be this much division if there wasn't a Clinton involved. Would we be this divided had the race been between Obama and Edwards? What about Edwards and Richardson? Biden and Richardson? No.

If you live in Wyoming, Mississippi, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, South Dakota etc…, please think about this before you vote.

IF by chance Clinton steals this nom from you...do not accept an invitation to be her Veep...you could run again after McCain messes up his four years!!! She needs you to win, you do not need a polarizing figure like her!!!

Come on Pennsylvanian voters, DON'T BE LIKE SHEEP and FOLLOW your governor blindly!!!

Don't you know that your governor is getting kick backs from Hillary for his support!! It's the same old, same old!!!!!!!!!

This country needs change and needs someone who can inspire people here and abroad to UNITE for the bettermentt of all mankind! The only person that is qualified to do that is Obama!!!

Come one Pennsylvania join the most positive movement this country has had!!!!

The only reason Clinton would offer it to Obama is because he will be in the pledged delegate lead at the end of the voting and she needs his supporters and his ability to raise capital. What she doesn't understand is that many of his supporters will not support her. I love what the Obama's campaign stands for and NO I am not some college kid. This will be my 9th presidential election. If Clinton is on any ticket, I will cast my vote otherwise.

Why haventeported on the trial going on in California on Paul vs-Clinton on ederal campagne fraud? The Canadian conection on NAFTA ? Tax Records . She will have to make a deal because she doesnt want the American People to know her connectio with Saude Araba Dubai Selling missel secrets to China . They get 10 million a year for their help . Clinton was in Canada befor the NAFTA came out . He BILLY BABBA is said to have an affair with a Canadian Politicion . CNN report the truth . Hillary has so much to hide , your reporters should look into this . She wants to have a socialist goverment for us and take away our 2nd ammendant . Look into this . You people better get a grip on the news instead of being for Hillary . We are waiting foe correct news . wITH A INCOME OF 50MILLION they are said to have where is the money coming from .? Report , where is her TAX RETURNS?

The sooner Clinton and Obama can unite, the better it will be for the Democratic Party. The longer they stay divided, the worse it becomes for the Democrats.

Remember, it is the Democratic Party's Election to Loose and as of right now, they are doing a good job of sabotaging themselves.

After this bitter campaign, I do not think it is a good idea to have an Obama/Clinton ticket or a Clinton/Obama ticket. Neither one like the other and some much negative campaigning (on both sides) has occurred that a joint ticket is not feasible. If Obama wins, he should pick someone who has the same philosphy has he does – and someone with impeccable credientials and lots of foreign policy experience. If CLinton wins, she will probably pick someone that will help her pick up votes in the general election - the old way f doing things picking someone from a state or geographical region to help the ticket...probably someone from the South or Southwest.

Obama need to stay positive,ignore all of hillary distraction.hillary is going down ,But dont let her bring you down with her.Remember her smile is just a frown turn upside down.

I agree it's too late for a joint ticket strategy – Clinton would never be able to trust Obama.

Obama is trying to STEAL THE ELECTION by threatening the super delegates to vote for him instead of following the rules and voting for who ever they think can beat McCain. Super Delegates need to DO THEIR JOB! Unfortunately if they do vote for Clinton, we all know the african americans will riot in the streets. Obama has created a "movement" that is out of control! African Americans are voting 95% Obama and calling super delegates "racist" if they vote for Clinton!

Democrats have gotten themselves in a NO WIN situation!

I AM SO PISSED THAT THE NEWS MEDIA RAN THE NAFTA COMMENT IN THE GROUND WHEN THEY HEARD OBAMA'S CAMP SAID IT, NOW THAT THE TRUTH THAT HILLARY'S CAMP IN FACT SAID IT...SHE OWE'S BARACK AND THE PEOPLE OF OHIO AN APOLOGY.....I WILL SPREAD THIS MESSAGE TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH SINCE NO ONE ELSE BESIDES A FEW ON THE COMMENT SECTION AND MYSELF ARE SPEAKING ON IT!

SHAME ON THE NEWS STATIONS.....DO SOMETHING,AND LET THIS BE HEARD!!

These suggestions are a pathetic ploy to try and gain votes from people who like them both and think that voting for Hillary is also a vote for Obama.

Pathetic

Off subject, but about Hillary.

According to a CNN post, During a 1995 visit to Beijing, at a time when her husband's administration was trying to press China on human rights, Sen. Clinton made a speech condemning abuses.

This is an example of her claimed experience. Funny how she uses SPEECHES as experience.

One can only shake his head at this.

Speech on, Obama!

Response to 4hill..................................You speak of the energy created in this election. You do know that it is coming from OBAMA, not Clinton don't you? He has awakened a sleeping giant, young people who have been apathetic and lazy about politics until now.

Bravo to him and all the young people getting out to vote

McCain will win the nomination.

The wisdom of the DNC will let Hillary and Obama slug and bloody each other. Obama has the pledge delegate lead.
When the DNC super-delegates overturn the pledge delegates for Hillary or run to Obama side, one side will not vote, may vote for Nader or McCain.

We are falling into the conservative republicans plans. If they overrule Obama, 90% of the black vote will be gone and all of the first time and young voters will join.
If jumping to Obama, over sixty years old and women will protest. I don't want to miss the uneducated that Hillary always says she gets. They don't know better.

Clinton/OBAMA=No way!!!

Obama/Clinton= That sounds better!!!!! I really dont know what makes Hillary Clinton feel like she's in the driver seat.

When Obama gets the nomination, he does not need to offer Hillary the VP spot at all. That will just polarize the ticket and raise the Democrates chances of loosing the White House in November.

If Obama was to offer he the VP spot, Hilliary true colors would show because she would be arrogant and ignorant enough to probably decline since she could not have her way.

NO WAY!
Obama will never put Clinton on a ticket. Clinton has shown, she is not a trust worthy person. New Yorkers can have her.

she stands againts everthing is fighting to eliminate.

Hillary is promoting a Clinton/Obama presidency......vote for her and get
both. I think Obama should make it clear that he is not interested in being
vice president, or should he win, he is not obligated to offer the vice presidency to Hillary.

Al Gore? Please step in and stop this stupidity.

Hillary would offer the vp to obama because she's savvy enough to realize that using his strengths would help their common goal. However, I don't think Obama is as savvy to offer her the VP – which indicates to me that he's naive – and still needs some training.

Right now she have said twice that She and McCain are the same and Obama is different. " senator Mccain and I have lifetime archivement to bring into whitehouse, but senator Obama has speeches'.
That to me is telling democrats that she and mccain are more of the-same, so it will be hard for democrats to argue that there will be changes when Americans vote democratic party into the White House
. Obama is different from them and that is what American people need at this moment. Change will not come with the same people doing the same thing and hoping it will be different.
It need different person to do a new and different thing.

This is the same person who said," White men will not vote for an African American Man. "
Now he wants these two candidates on the same ballot. How will he himself vote?
I think there is too much mud on the field and daily more dirt is poured for the Clinon Machine to emerged with Believing in Change People
I am a little confused she had Wolkson speaking aggressively about her camp and Senator Obama and has she requested his resignation?
How can Senator Clinton request Senator Obama fire someone?
If she can forgive her [previous] wayward husband certainly she should be able to forgive anyone else. You would think!

Clinton-Edwards

I will concede she *may* actually have human blood in her, and probably actually cares about some of her policies. But I am sick of her negative campaigning and I hope she is being sincere about a joint ticket.

Barack is much to intelligent of a person to fall for the offer of VP from Hillary. He knows that he would not be #2 but Bill would push him to the #3 slot.

Not only that but Hillary would bring to much baggage with her. There are many many other intelligen women that are respected by all that would be a good running mate for him if that is the direction that he wished to go in.

The person who is trailing should really not be talking about having the leader be their VP.

Although I am enraged on a daily basis with Hillary's campaign, I think democrats may not have a choice based on how the demographics seem split up. However, I think the fact they are offering it to him is only a strategy to make them look like the party unifiers to the Super Delegates. I would not doubt for a second that she would do an about face and ask someone else to be the VP. Now if she were willing to be VP right now, then it would mean something else. I would vote Democrat as long as Obama is on the ticket.

hey all you hillary and obama supporters read this article and tell me how you feel about your candidates of change

More nonsense from the Clinton camp and it is never going to happen. Clinton has no principles and her camp is destroying the Democratic party. Obama is not going to fall for this crap. Steal the election Clinton and you are on your are on your own to suffer a humiliating defeat to McCain in the general election as all your dirty tricks come back to haunt you.

Florida

It's funny that Senator Clinton continues to talk about a "joint ticket" with Senator Obama while she throws mud. She will not win the delegate count/nomination and she and her cronies know this. A joint ticket with a mud slinging, polarizing, Republican candidate supporter? Please. It will never happen.

I think a Clinton/Obama would be a great ticket. This would be great for Obama since he's not really one to embrace confrontation. He'll learn from the best. Then after Clinton's 8 he can step up with more experience and some cojones and be the President that we deserve. 16 years!!

As far as who's paying for it? Well I think that the decision to move up the dates were made by a group of people and those people and who they represent should pay for the cost of redoing it. Then they should be fired for making such an idiotic decision.

I was watching Hannity the other night asking people what OBAMA has accopmlished and trying to insinuate he's done nothing.

Might I add that he has entered a race against a mighty machine who thought of this primary as a coronation and didn't have the forsight to plan past super Tuesday and essentially kicked their butts.

That in itself tells me he could be President.

Why doesn't she try to be McCain's VP? She seems far more attached to him, even though he called Chelsea ugly and said that Janet Reno was her father.

Hillary is pathetic.

Joint ticket? President Obama and Hillary for dog catcher.

Why would Obama want to have a 165-pound poison cyst attached to his butt?

Obama......God, please!!!!!!!! Choose anyone else!!!!! But not her.

It seems to me that Hillary as of late has been positioning herself to be McCains VP. Obama should not be on the ticket with anyone that would put their Republican opponent above a democrat. She can go with the McCain if she is such a great friend and holds in such high standing. The democratic party does not need someone like that to be in our party.

A ticket of Clinton/Obama would almost guaranty that the Democratic party 16 years in the Whire House. The time is now to look at the big picture that would make that happen.

If's funny how the Obama people are so negative. Don't you want to pull the party together? Do you really think you will win the election by splintering off the Clinton people along with Florida and Michigan? It ain't gonna happen! Wake up! The Republicans are a lot stronger than you think. Why do you think we have a Republican president right now?! What Hillary cares about is not dividing the party and you should be too! Hate mongering will only lose the election for us all. Besides, Florida had both Hillary and Obama on the ballot and Hillary won by a strong margin. She would likely be in the lead if everyone in this country were getting their votes counted and the election hadn't been tipped in favor of Obama by not counting the votes in two states. Is that how Obama really wants to win? By cheating? This party better get rid of the hate and start looking out for the best of the party. Also I question the fairness of black delegates being threatened if they don't support Obama. Now that is really a crooked race! Who is going to extreme ends to try and win now?

A clinton/obama office. That would have been nice but considering the way the dems have ran this race, i do not think that will happen. Even if either candidate offers the position, it will be turned down in a nice way (well, i hope instead of a dogfight).
All in all, if Clinton wins the nomination, the Republicans have it easy to win the national BUT if Obama wins the nomination, The Republican will think they have it easy but not quite so because they really do not know much about Obama which will definitely impose a problem on them.
During this race however, my respect had been for the Republicans. It was a nice, clean (maybe not quite) but respectable race compared to my so called DEMOCRATS...
The Dems race would have been quite respectable if hillary had not gone ballistic.. Plus what in the world does she mean those states Obama win does not count??? She is otherwise implying that the people in those states does not mean anything!
Very shameful coming from someone who vows to bring together the country..yea right!

Two untrustful people. And they want them as our future President and Vice President....How simple are these voters. I guess they want socialism very badly to support them.

hmm. a GENTLEMAN and a MONSTER. It does not look fair.

haha.

Go Obama Go.

Shrillary has lost me completely. I cant support any ticket with her on it.

I believe in Obama and hope I get the chance to vote for him, but I would not vote for a ticket that contains Hillary, even if it means voting republican. I really think that the only she is doing right now is destroying the democratic party, both by turning her voters against Obama and by turning Obama voters against her.

This ticket would be a disaster for the Dems. Clinton started talking about it because she knows she can't win and will do anything to get to the Presidency. Having Clinton as VP would be going backwards for the DEMS and the Clintons are stale and have too much baggage.

OBAMA needs to find a fresh personality that brings life to the campaigh and isn't tied to the Washington elites.

I am Republican by the way, but might vote for OBAMA. I wouldn't vote for Clinton if she ran against Putin. She is a back stabber and not trustworthy.

Clinton/Obama ticket makes more sense. Obama can gain the experience needed and the Democrats can hold on to the White House for at least 16 years!

Well it has been said befor some vote for hillary they will vote for mccain. Having Obama as a vice president will destroy the hope for change that we have deposited on him and will move him to the dark side (Clintons politics).

Asking Clinton to be Obama's VP makes no sense. Obama would be inviting both Clinton's to his administration. . .

Once the campaign rhetoric is forgotten (if ever), President Obama might want to consider the former president for some diplomatic role. Senator Clinton should go back to the senate and get more experience.

Of course if Clinton comes out on top she will need him or she will be known as a 'flip-flopper' by McCain and she will end up like John Kerry.

Honestly , I am not sure that our country is ready for a female president and an african american president ; I also doubt that , because of his age , senator Mc Cain could be a " right " president if he is elected in November . That is what bothers me and maybe other people as well . From the bottom of my heart , I always wants senator Hillary Clinton to be our next president .

You have got to be kidding. How can an illegal candidate court the presence of a legit candidate to the candidacy ticket?
Obama would be the most stupidest Black in the world if he did!
From the onset, Hillary wanted Gov. Richardson from New Mexico. What has happened.
Nothing surprizes me anymore with this campaign.

Go OBAMA '08

If Clinton and MeCain elected the world would be the same. Plus their responsible for the war cause the UN and other nations unhappy and distance from united states. But if Obama elected America will be seen in different face and the world will be happy to co-operate to resolve the war and to fight against the common enemy such as terriest, poverty and diseases. Obama represent as respectful and negotationar while Clinton and Mecain represent as fighters and the same old washengten players. They can not bring peace to the world!

Clinton joint ticket does not represent Obama! She may claim to help Europe during their struggle but she never help the poor Africa during Rewanda war where millions died. She would try to claim herself as a mother Teresa, the fact is she is the opposite who is starving for power!

I for one would be THRILLED with a Clinton/Obama ticket – Experience with Vision! We need to pull the party together to fight the real enemy – McBush.

Lots of presidential races have had bitter fought nominations that ended up in a sucessful Pres/VP partnership, so I don't think the arguement that the campaign has been too ugly for a partnership to be possible holds any water.

i just like to say if obama become the nominie of our party then i will join republican party obama and his supporters realy scare me to death they act and talk likea criminal mafia oraganization

I WOULD GO FOR HILLARY-OBAMA, THE PARTNERSHIP WILL WORK WELL FOR EVERYONE. HILLARY WITH HER EXPERIENCE
AND FIGHTING SPIRIT, OBAMA WITH HIS ELOQUENCE AND COOLNES. IT IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR OBAMA TO BE TRAINED AND BE READY TO BE A PRESIDENT OF THE FUTURE. HE GONNA
NEED HILLARY EXPERIENCE, KNOWLEDGE, WIT AND CONNECTION.

GO HILLARY-OBAMA. THAT WILL STOP THE NEGATISM, JEALOUSY, ANGER AND HIGH DRAMA OF THIS PRIMARY ELECTION. IMAGINE THE DREAM TEAM, IT IS AWESOME.

Please don't do it Hillary, you don't need to babysit and raise
another kid. Call on Ted Strickland, we like him!

Interesting angle, that the nominee should, as a courtesy, offer v.p. to the other. But, I don't think that's a good way to choose a v.p.

I also don't think the two should be running mates. I can only imagine the internal dynamics. It is hard enough being president without having a v.p. of whom many think ought to be the president.

Where is the reporting about Clinton and Rendell's fraud with Peter Paul. This is much more important than reporting that someone called Clinton a monster.

Also, where is the reporting on the Canadian NAFTA mess up that damaged Obama when it was really Clinton who claimed she was only "political positioning:". More important, she then had the nerve to blow the story up about Obama while the story should have been without her.

Come on CNN, you are really looking more and more like the "Clinton News Network".

I definitely do NOT support a ticket that showcases BO & HRC–that is sheer lunacy. After the way that she has handled herself, denigrated Barak and because of all of the enormpus baggage that she inevitably brings–I want her no where near my Barak. Heck no! If he would even consider it–I would jump ship–BUH BYE!

It looks to me like Hillary is trying to unite her support base and unite the party. I'm a Hillary supporter, and would not mind seeing a Clinton/Obama ticket- I would vote for Obama/Clinton- I would never vote for Obama if he wins the nomination and doesn't offer Clinton the VP spot. The party is divided and they both have a large number of supporters-

Ed Rendell is an idiot! He's a liberal left wing gun hating fool! He promised property tax relief to Pennsylvanians in his first term seven years ago and has failed on that too. By Clinton having Rendell's support and endorsement will guarantee that Clinton will lose the PA primary. I will vote for Huckabee in the PA primary even though he has withdrawn, however I am this close to not voting for a Presidential candidate in the fall given the apparent current selections are going to be. God Save the USA! Please!

She's extending an olive branch while she's behind in the delegate count? I'm confused.

I'm ready for this to end...but if Obama chooses her as his running mate I think it will be a huge mistake. His best options are Richards & Edwards.

You pie-in-the-sky, "let's have a new bi-partisan way in our politics" [D]s had better get a grip. Take a look at what the [R]s posting on these blogs have to say; look carefully at the past 8 years...the past 14 years in Congress.... Where do you see an opportunity to work with the [R]s; where do you see that they want to work with the [D]s? They are going to continue the politics of Rove and Cheney, the swift-boating and SC-McCaining of good Americans who dare to have a different hope for America than they and their corporate puppet-master have.

Whoever wins the [D] nomination, and all us dems, had better wake up to the fact that the [R] DOG still has the sock of power in its mouth, and it is mindlessly shaking it around, growling, and biting so NOBODY can get it. We had better be ready to hit the DOG over the head HARD to get it to release that sock. Talking NICE to that idiot DOG is not going to get it to cooperate. But some harsh discipline will soon have it sitting in the corner licking its hindquarters, while the rest of us can get back to making America great again.

Hey Fast Eddie!!

Stop eating cheesesteaks and appearing on talk shows and start taking care of business here in PA for ONCE!!

Maybe if you showed some leadership or initiatives to your fellow Pennsylvanians, your opinions on the Presidential race would count. But until then, keep your mouth shut and do some work for a change!

I will not vote for any arrangement that puts Hillary in the WH. PERIOD. You can take that to the bank.

Clinton needs Obama, he does not need her.

I thought it usually is the one candidate that is behind that asks for a joint ticket. It is obvious that Hillary sees the writing on the wall and wants to be on the ticket, even as a vice president. I really don't think it is a bad idea, since together they will be much stronger in the general election. I am an Obama supporter, but I think he needs the Hispanic votes and additional experience in foreign experience ( she doesn't have much) to make a stronger ticket against McCain. The Republicans politicals appear nervous every time a duel ticket is mentioned.

Paula Miller CA

No ticket with Senator Clinton on it will carry Texas. Bet on it! After her increasingly negative campaigning, I suspect that a significant number of Obama supporters will stay home on election day if she is the party's presidential candidate. That spells four more years of Bush policies in the White House and diminished Democratic gains in Congress.

Many Dems see this as the way to resolve the conflict between the campaigns. However, I am not so sure Hillary being on the ticket with Obama will be an advantage outside of the Dem party..... she is not all that popular within her party and even less popular with Repubs and Independents.

Never, Never, Never!

I'll vote McCain before I'd EVER vote for the Clintons.

My republican husband feels the same.

Obama '08!!!

Hillary doesn't have the qualifications to be Vice President either.

No thanks, after reading the childish antics of Obama and his camp the last 2 days, Hillary needs a grown up to run for VP when she gets the nomination.

Talk about making the Republican job easy if that was the case... they would just use their own sound-bites against each-other to describe how neither are qualified.

"Miss Clinton, you said McCain was more qualified than Barack... thank you" McCain.

Clinton is done, all she has to go on is "experience". McCain would beat her bad on experience, plus he gets the torture simpathy vote... Hillary is now seen as the killer of hopes and dreams... not exactly leading from the heart there Hill.

Austin wrote: "Some people say that more Obama supporters would (not) vote for Hillary. This statistic is wrong"

Austin, you are being naive.
Everyday that goes by more of us wont vote for her. Every little trick and cheat she tries, pushes us away even farther. Her actions have consequences.
The hope you have for us uniting around her is bleeding. Better get used to that reality.

IF MLK was alive, he probably would have supported Hillary, that would be a KILLER ticket to run on. He was an honorable man and would not have abandoned those who supported him.

He would not fall for false words of hope, and blindly support based on race. He would support based on ethics and experience. He was a champion for all people.

Informed people in this country DO NOT want obama as president.......vice president............or even DOG CATCHER.

I will vote for clinton as long as she distances herself from this racist traitor.

Clinton must understand that the people who are voting for her are VOTING AGAINST obama just as much.

i know he said it a few times, but i don't think he (obama) should be friends with hillary. when she praised him in the debate calling it an honor, it was an attack she was planning to get him to put his guard down so she could smack him silly. now his guard is up and may realize that he's got to be more aggressive.

My belief that Senator Obama is not prepared for the most crucial office in the land is supported by the comment regarding Senator Clinton being a monster and practicing to decieve the American Public. I want to make it known that I am one of the 25% of Democratic voters who SHALL without ONE DOUBT vote for a Repbubican for the FIRST time in my voting life if Senator Obama is the nominee. The character of such an advisor is deplorable ;and , confirms for me that Senator Obama as President would continue to exhibit an inabiltiy to choose mature people in decisive positions of power . I sincerely believe that an administration under Senator Obama would be more choatic than what we have experienced with this current President.

I too am all for a Clinton/Obama ticket. However, it's harder to imagine it the other way around.

This current campaign has been so heated, I think that it will be difficult for any of them to offer the other the VP position.

However, I think that combined they would be hard for the GOP to beat. I just don't think that it will happen.

We don't want Clinton in the White House. She is too racist to be Obama's VIce President.

Hillary has been involved in too many scandals to be either President or Vice President. Bill will have too much influence in either case.

Obama should stay clear of Hillary

NEVER NEVER NEVER! Because Hillary would ruin Obama!

Obama should be on top of th ticket if a joint ticket becomes possible.He has brought in alot of young people who are very engaged in the process and may loss interest in the process if he is not on top of the ticket.The person who has more pledged delegate should be on top. I am for Obama but at this point I am very realistic.Clinton brings in Hispanics, older voters, Obama brings in Young people and African Americans.To keep things intact a joint ticket can save the democratic party.Obama may not want Clinton on his Administration for he is the change candidate.

Regarding the Florida and Michigan delegates

If DNC decided not to count their delegates, they should then also reduce the total delegates reqired for nomination from 2024 (half of the total delegates) to about 1870 (half of the delegates for the remaining total delegates).

That makes perfect sense and solves the whole problem easily.

If she become a VP then she might just say that she is the one who made Obama a great president. Lets be fair here, they might make a great team with Obama at the top but Clinton just need to be nicer to him. Be nice Hillary...

The only thing Hillary Clinton has to offer the American people as President or Vice President is proximity. That is proximity to Bill Clinton. The only reason I can see that George W. Bush was elected President was proximity to George H.W. Bush, and we have seen how that has turned out.
Funny how Americans' point their fingers and send their bombs to countries that don't have democracies, but do we? Are we all going to sit by for the 2nd time, and watch (Florida) republicans determine the outcome of our "democratic" race for a Presedential nominee? Republican Governor Charlie Crist VOTED TO DISENFRANCHISE HIS DEMOCRATIC VOTERS by moving up his primary, now he wants to portray himself as a Governor for all of the people of Florida...give me a break! He knew the consequences of his actions, and now the GOP is going to get exactly what they wanted; the upper hand in the Democratic nomination.
Now, we are being strong armed into taking a losing Presidential nominee and naming her V.P. Wake up voters.
We are just puppets on a string until we stand up for ourselves.

No way. Obama doesn't need her. Hillary is using psycology on the black race ,Just like her husband use it on the litinoes . But hillary is behind in delegets she is losing and when she is laughing she is crying and mad .She just said she and mc cain is just alike,She is campaigning for the Reps already.

RUN Obama...Run

Today you might be offered the Vice President position...after the opening statement in Chicago yesterday during the Rezko trial, tomorrow and following weeks do not look real good for ya. I don't think Hillary Clinton should take the chance and even consider offering it to you.

Your name being mentioned at all...even once in the Rezko trial is poison, but twice in just the opening statement? Well, you're a Chicago tough guy, or so you said.

At first I thought an Obama/Clinton ticket would be a great idea and I for one was all for it. The more I see the nasty and dirty underhanded tricks pulled by Hillary Clinton the more I just don't trust her. I'm a life-long democrat and if I see Hillary Clinton on any ticket I would rather vote for John McCain. Hillary Clinton and her win at all cost politics have really got to me and many other democrats that I know.

Hillary has already made it clear that she intends the wreck the dem's chances in the general by touting her and John McCain are the only ones with experience in this campaign.

Basically she has said to the nation - if you don't vote for me – vote for my best friend John McCain.

I think she is trying to be John McCains VP not Obama

Vote Obama in 08 and get rid of this nonsense

I don't think Clinton is serious about this at all. She is saying it now and hoping more people will vote her way thinking it will also bring along Barack but if she gets the nomination she would never share the spotlight with him ever. Besides, were Obama to accept the position, Hillary's loss would tarnish his future hopes. Look what happened to Edwards losing with Kerry.

And Barack is too smart to offer the number 2 spot to Hillary. She would take it in a heartbeat knowing she was only a heart beat away from the presidency.

This reminds me of an article where Kennedy offered the position of VP to Johnson just to be nice. The article then quoted an unhappy Kennedy after the phone call, "the SOB accepted".

He shouldnt do this. He will be the nominee and if he's not after all. you can see John Mccain win the election. after al, she said that Mccain is better than Obama and Hillary.
Go Obama
the truth is they are scared because you want to change the country and people dont want that. at the same time, i lost my faith in American people because there's no position for honest people and you have to be nasty and dishonest to get elected as president.
how could you give your respect to someone who is nasty and dishonest and untrustworthy and hoping that person will protect you.
if obama is not there, we are voting for Mr MCain, at least he's honest what he wants to do.

Any logical thinking person knows that Billary is only mentioning Barack as a vice presidential candidate to try and sway minority voters. She's running the swiftboat campaign that Bush ran against Kerry but only this is worst coming from her . I lost all respect for her and Bill after the Jesse Jackson comment and I will without a doubt vote for McCain if Hillary wins the democratic nomination. He's more of a democrat that that she is and I believe he's the lesser of two evils. Her negative campaigning should prepare Barack for McCain if her political partners in Florida don't steal this election.

Obama – Edwards 08

I think Obama would be stepping back if he offered Hillary the VP....NO way, he is the canadiate of the "New Potilics" Hillary respresents OLD politics....

Don't Do it OBAMA.......Select a new team...if you get Hillary...you get that D-Bill.

OBAMA Supporters....DON"t BE FOOLED.......

No way.... She is just trying to secure something for herself !!!! NO WAY!!!!!
Obama/Biden '08

If she steals the nomination, I think she should complete the circle by offering Liberman the spot since they're both very fond of John McCain.

TO: what u talkin about :

Hillary does not need Obama either. That's a fact !

If McCain did offer Hillary the V.P spot, ( but most likely not to happen)
Then i would vote for them !

GO HILLARY !

When I hear Clinton in Mississippi tell those voters, that she will consider Barack Obama as her VP choice, but she will need the voters of Mississippi to help her out on tuesday........Is laughable. This woman will do anything to win delegates. The now NAFTA-GATE scandal that took a swipe at Obama in OHIO, has her fingerprints all over it. What gets me, is all those Unemployed Ohio hard working citizens who were affected by NAFTA, fell for her smear against Obama. Lets hope the Steel Workers and Factory workers in PENN STATE, dont fall for the same trap, and sees right through Hillary's win at any cost tactics.

A senior Clinton aide said her supporters were scrambling to "freeze" members of Congress on the verge of announcing for Obama, and said a good night for Clinton would be key to forestalling the move.

obama would not accept becasue he is only concern on "making history" and pleasing his ego. he does not care for the country. it scares me to see the kind of advisers he has around.

More detriment than calling Hillary a monster, is the rest of the unintelligent comments Samantha Power made during her interview. Just watch it on BBC America. All these obama people giving interviews to the foreign press is so presuntious and arrogant. they are trying to present to the rest of the world as if obama is the already the president.

I think that it would really be a good idea either way. Personally I'd rather see Hillary be the president because of her experience but I think that it would be a golden era for the United States. Whoever is vice president would surely have a good chance of being president in the future. I get so sick of trying to argue my point that Hillary is the best candidate. It's becoming clear that everybody has locked in there votes already. So can we all just try to get along? I've never been into politics in all my life like I have been during this race. So just vote for whoever you want to be president and try to keep this negative talk to a minimum. Alrighty?

HELL NO!! HILLARY NEEDS BETTER!

HILLARY SHOULD PICK JOHN EDWARDS – THEY WOULD BE UNSTOPPABLE!!

GO HILLARY
GO HILLARY
GO HILLARY

Please Obama stay away from this evil women. Let's get rid of her and move on for the November election with MCcain.

It is not fair to talk about a vice presidency position when we do not even have a nominee yet.

Can we take it one step at a time please!

STOP THE HATE, VOTE OBAMA 08!!!!!!

I think this would be a great idea. I deeply care for both candidates, and it is quite obvious that most of America feels the same way. If we can effectively break down the last racial and gender barriers in the U.S. in one step, why wouldn't we?

Governor Rendell needs to shut his trap. This coming from the same man, the same Governor who said the people of Pennsylvania are conservative and he doesn't think they will vote for a black man. So Gov. Rendell needs to go suck a lemon. And If the situation were reversed here do you think this talk of a joint ticket would be happening? No!! Hillary started this talk AFTER she won(?) Texas and Ohio. It's a ploy. The only reason Hillary and Rendell and supporters are speaking this now is because they want the voters of Wyoming and Mississippi to go out and vote for her thinking Barack will be with her. Barack Obama needs to come right out and say he is not pursuing a joint ticket with this person. DON'T BE FOOLED Wyoming and Mississippi. There is no joint ticket with Hillary and Obama, Obama has not said there is, he is running for president of the United States with no joint ticket now and I pray to God he does not chose her as his running mate! And if they become running mates I will not, cannot vote for them then, as I cannot vote for Hillary Clinton, so this democratic vote will not happen!!

THIS idea only benefits Clinton... When will people see the light?

Clinton knows that she cannot "screw" Obama out of the nomination and then expect his supporters to support her. SO she "implies" (or has her flunky put out) that a "dream team" would be Clinton / Obama. She knows that he will not accept (See disclaimer by aforementioned "flunky" saying that if he/she does not want the VP spot they can say why) BUT she now has appeared to come across as the one to "unite" the party. Obama would be put in a lose/lose situation if he were to accept the nomination. If he accepts, he has to be smeared by the chaos that is sure to follow any Clinton administration (however we can hope she gets impeached and is removed from office) and if he doesn't accept and HRC loses (which she will) SHE can place the blame at the feet of Obama saying that IF he had joined the ticket and UNITED the party, the dems would have won.

I hope that OBAMA comes out ASAP and strongly indicates that HE WILL NOT BE ON THE TICKET WITH BILLERY.

All this talk of a joint ticket is advantage Clinton. If she hints at Obama as her running mate then some of the undecided voters who are considering the argument that Obama isn't ready to lead might think they're getting a package deal: the experienced leader (that's debatable) and the inspiring orator.
Obama is wise to brush aside comments about the "dream ticket" for fear of talking himself out of the nomination. He needs to present himself as ready to lead, which I feel he is doing adequately.

I along with every independant I know will vote for McCain before we vote for the always corrupt always deceiving Clintons. There are no 35 years of experience that she is bringing to office. Being the decorator for the Governors’ mansion followed by the White House decorator isn’t elected official experience. Conversely Obama has been working as an elected official for the last 15 years. I have wondered why the medis has ever let her say that she has more experience. Her experience seems to have more to do with insider trading, and illegal land deals than political decisions.

Andrew Jones –
Ed Rendell is not a racist. He said that some of the votes he received in his election could be attributed to some people not voting for Lynn Swann because Swann was black. I believe he said ~5 percentage points of the 22% lead could be attributed to this. That is a statement based on voter demographics and people voting with the candidate with whom they could best identify themselves. This is not a racist observation, any more than observing that 75+ % of black votors have been voting for Obama is a racist observation.
Obama supports should stop trying to demonize Hillary and her supporters.

Clinton would accept Obama as a VP, but Obama is too arrogant to answer to a woman. He has seen power, he has heard the worshippers, he can't step down from his faith-based politics and play second fiddle. And unfortunately, this gigantic ego problem of his will be the downfall of the Democratic Party. I challenge Obama to stop seeing the country through his own delusions of grandeur and support Hillary.

Hillary Clinton needs Barack Obama. Barack Obama needs someone like Sam Nunn on his ticket. He does not need Hillary. Bottom line: I am an Independent, and the ONLY way I would vote for Hillary Clinton is if Obama is on the ticket. The Independents will determine this election. And if Hillary Clinton is the Democratic nominee, she will not get most of the Independent vote!

After watching the way Hillary Clinton has acted in this campaign I would rather vote for 8 more years of Bush.

Never in a million. After today it is true. Hillary is a "monster." We need change from her divisive politics and tactics. Obama is too good to allow her to be his VP.

Oh my. lookie here Hillary and Rendell side by side...codefendents in the Peter Paul campaign fraud trial. CNN, why are you talking about the upcoming trial in October 2008? Isn't it important in the decision making process for the Primary voters?

Hillary's trick is she is sending bill to the smaller counties in the states to work for her where the big press doesnt go. As you could tell the main places that she won delegates at were the small towns. Seeing a ex president has alot of backing. That is why we havent heard about Bill for awhile. He is getting the small town people for her so she can keep battleing Obama in the big cities.

Obama.... lets beat her!

Obama 08

I really wanted to give my thought on the monster deal that CNN shut down way to early. Talk about freedom of the press whenn Cnn lets some go on much longer than others.
There is some kind of mob rule going on here
Monster Mob that is
Hillary is certainly at least a monster
take care

I AGREE! The President/Vice President ticket is nowhere big enough for Obama-Hillary-Bubba-Michelle. It would be great fun however, as a Republican, to see the daily battle of these titanic egos that would result! Oh, PLEASE, bring it on!

Please people see through her lying teeth. Why do people take her seriously when there is countless factual proof that she lies soo much. Please do your research, don't just listen to people(aka candidates). Take their ideas and so-called "facts" and do research! You will eventually see Barack is much more of an honest person. Why would you elect someone that is lying about everything that means so dearly to you. Take this stuff very seriously, please!

Another thing to point out is that after a president leaves office only when the next president comes into office do you see most of their economic footprint, whether good or bad. Some of it is immediate, but not all of it. Bill Clinton left a mess, George Bush left a catastrophe. So don't think so highly of the clintons. RESEARCH!

The big question must be answered first. Where the Clinton Money coming from? What about those taxes?

First, I do think it's premature to be having this discussion.
Second, I think it's up to each candidate to make that decision. They should not have that choice taken from them by political wonks and dreamers.
Last, I do not think it would necessarily be a good idea to have both on the same ticket. Not sure whose 'dream ticket' this is.

Yeah, like Hillary would listen to Obama over Bill when it comes to decision making. If Obama accepted the VP spot on the ticket, he should plan on getting used to be calling "boy" by Hillary and Bill, because at that point he will have demonstrated that his call for a new kind of politics lacked all credibility and backbone. Plus, would the American public really want a VP who was one heartbeat away from the Presidency and wasn't ready for a call at 3 a.m.? On the other hand, if Hillary took the VP slot, would Americans vote for a President who put all of his ethics aside to put a person in place who represented all the old politics and gridlock of Washington into a position one heartbeat away from the Presidency?

I think the perfect pairing would be Obama and the Breck Girl.

Baloney. Clinton thinks she is being slick by touting this idea; as if Obama supporters will vote for her thinking that he might be the VP. If anything, it should be the other way around. He has more pledge delegates, more popular votes, more states 27 to 14. Maybe he could consider her for HIS vice president, but I think he should chose someone with soul instead

Whatever she said was whatever Obama wanted to say but wouldn't say, they are on the same boat and ther're same kind of people. We can see a better view of Obama now...

If Obama isn't ready to answer the phone at 3:00 AM, what happens if she is in surgery and he is acting president for that time? Aren't candidates supposed to pick a vice president that can take over if necessary. Well, the honesty of Hillary shows again.

Rendell, rhetoric isn't going to work.

This will never happen. By the time June arrives they will barely be civil with each other.
This idea is all part of CLinton's strategy Pleaseee Obama's followers can see right thru her tactics!!!
Clinton started with the negative attacks comparing herself to McCain and dissing Sr Obama!!
No way if not Obama then McCain gets my vote!!

Nutcracker sparks bomb scare
Police say a package that prompted a bomb scare at a state capitol started with a Hillary Clinton nutcracker.

Looks like this monster thing is getting out of hand!
Ha Ha!!

Senator Obama should come out clearly and say he will not consider the "dream ticket" either way. That way, he strips the power from Clinton with the trick she is trying to pull here with implying that people can just go ahead and vote for her and they'll get Obama too. Of course, stating he will not be party to it will require extreme caution. Otherwise it will appear he is being undiplomatic because of the spin that is already being put on this – that somehow it's a goodwill gesture on her part. Bull! That woman does nothing out of goodwill, and shame on the people who buy into her bull!

How about an Obama/Farrakan ticket. Why postpone the inevitable?

This would be a great move if hillary brings her so called experience to the table and Obama brings his right judgment. They would make a good joint ticket. I still think Obama should be the commander in chief and get advice from Clinton but make sure he uses the right judgment on Clinton's advice because as much as she has succeeded, she has failed in many areas. just a thought from canada

Hillary would make a great VP! Too bad she's ruined her chances by going so negative on Obama. Otherwise I could've imagined the 2 on the same ticket.

I must say, Hillary Clinton has managed to turn many voters away with her tactics!

To all of you who've posted here saying "when Hillary wins" or "if Obama wins"...

Obama HAS won. There's NO WAY Hillary can come anywhere near his pledged delegate count. Wake up and smell reality!

Clinton is warm and open mind, Obama is too shallow and too empty... don't know if it's a good idea.

How in the world can anyone say Clinton is buying the election when Obama is out spending her at least 2 to1 in every state since super Tuesday? And I don't understand where people get off saying that she has been dirty when he has said and done more to hurt her and his own party then either of them. She has had to fight on 3 fronts. First Obama , The unfair media, and then John McCain. Obama couldn't ask her to be his V.P. because she would over shadow him. Hillary Clinton is clearly the better choice for the American people.

There is no reason for Obama to be forced to pick Hillary Clinton as VP. Yes, Hillary would be VP since she would be behind the delegate count, the popular vote, and the states. Her BS about I should be President because I won less states than Obama and states that will automatically go to Obama in the general election will not fly.

Give it up Eddie. I'm from Pittsburgh and we all know you are full of bull.

Why would Hillary want Obama as a VP? She's on record as saying is "all speeches" and no substance. Why would Obama want to be her VP? HE'S WINNING!! Why would he want Billiary in his administration. Look what they did to Al Gore's political career.

The Democratic party has created a gigantic mess changing primary and caucus dates .The whole superdelegate thing has always been stupid. Now they want to candidates to fix it for them by a decisive win or someone dropping out. Then the superdelgates don't have to help choose a winner and the party avoids looking bad. Howard Dean needs to 'man-up' and tell the superdelegates to do their job, choose a candidate. The longer the the Shillary and Obama show goes on the less evidence of 'change' in the way parties politic there is. That will hurt us with Independents and some Republicans in the fall.

I want to comment on the unfairness on how this election is being conducted. It is not fair that Hillary gets to do what ever her little heart desires. Let’s be honest, if the tables were turned and Obama lost 12 elections in a row after Supper Tuesday, the rug would literally be pulled out from under him and the media would show him the exit! Hillary losses 12 elections in a row, and the media helps build her up; ignoring all the dirt that comes with being a Clinton.
Why do we even bother to vote, when it is clear the establish candidate will always get the nomination regardless of what the people want. Wait your turn is what they say to Obama.... what about us the people. I don’t want to wait any longer for change! We need a President like Obama to help us now!!!

If Obama were to get on the ticket with Hillary, he would end up like Al Gore. I am for Obama, but I would never vote for any ticket that had Hillary on the ballot. Just think of the poor democrat that would follow Hillary.

Frankly I am happy to see the truth coming out about Obama
it seems to me he can dish it out but can't take it.

He has been going negative all along but since being annoited by Oprah – he was the media darling. I hope Hillary doesn't pick him for her VP – he is damaged goods and his momentum is gone. Thank God the country is waking up to this phony. I will vote for McCain before I ever vote for Obama – after all Obama's wife isn't even proud of her country.

Why would obama want to add a candidate that will polarize the republican base to show up in november.

So he can have a vice president with an ex president husband that could absolutely destroy his policy agenda should they not stay on the reservation?

Obama has every reason to not include clinton and no single reason to include her when there are much better choices to face McCain with. And in considering her the dynamic duo nature of her candidacy makes her an unsufferable policy and political liability as VP especially as off message as he has gotten in this campaign.

I can understand Hillary wanting obama for VP but the political math for obama is all bad the other way.

A new politician with 90's baggage just isn't a good change ticket.

Obama/Clinton ticket...I am staying home.
The idea was Change. I don't want to see or hear from them anymore.
Let her go run a University or something. Just get off my TV screen, before I throw something at it, out of frustration at the dancing, weaving, and bobbing direct questions, her smear attacks, lies and scandals, I can't take anymore. It will be a miracle if I make it till August, (if she hasn't checked out earlier).

No, no, no – any ticket with Clinton on it is poison.

And calling her a monster is an insult to monsters everywhere...

This is an insult to Sen. Obama. So basically HIll's saying that the only way democrats can come together is to have HER on Obama's ticket??? Give me a break! It's just another one of her ways to slither into–or near–the White House.

The only way Obama would get my vote is if he is on the same ticket with Hillary, if not, I won't vote McCain, I'll write Hillary's name in.

This country has no need for on the job training. We don't recruit soldiers and throw them on the battlefield without teaching them to use weapons.

We dont need a President that hasn't fought.

Hillary 2008

Kareem from Hampton Va, I agree. She's a really tricky one isn't she. Well Obama is smarter, i'm sure the camp is on her like the rest of us...

You must be joking!! Hillary stands for everything that Obama is trying to change. She's happy slinging dirt in her sandbox while he is trying to elevate politics to a substantive level. I would be very disappointed in Obama if he picked her as a running mate. Plus, he'd probably need to hire a FOOD TASTER!!!!!

I can just see President Obama and Vice President Clinton at their first policy disagreement. Hillary appearing on TV saying "I of course support President Obama even though both President Clinton and myself prefer another approach".

Both on a ticket is permanent division and would turn the Executive Branch of government into a permanent cat-fight.

I WOULD HOPE THAT HILLARY CLINTON WOULD MAKE A BETTER CHOICE FOR VICE-PRESIDENT THAN OBAMA. I DON'T TRUST HIM AND HIS TIES TO ISLAMIC H.O.P.E. WORRY ME. I BELIEVE OBAMA'S PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN WILL BE OVER SOON. TOO MANY REZKO IMAGES ATTACHED TO HIM.

No matter what the reasoning is behind the suggestion of a dream ticket, the truth is, Clinton and Obama together would be a force to beat.

No. Clinton needs to crawl back into the ditch from which she came. An Obama/Clinton ticket will not get any vote from me. A Clinton/Obama ticket nets McCain my vote. That woman has no purpose in modern politics. Let her flail around under she loses Wyoming and Mississippi then knock her out of the race entirely.

Billary will steal the election for sure!. Period

Clinton would offer VP to Obama since she knows he would never agree to play third-wheel to her and Bill.
Obama should not offer VP to Hillary since she's power-hungry enough to take it and then stab him in the back to take over! He might do it just for the sake of party unity, but it would be a big big mistake.

All of a sudden the Obama camp is having to retract just about everything they say; and the explanation always is that the comments were not approved by Obama. I seem to recall a lot of posts on CNN from Obama supporters earlier in the campaign to the effect of "if Clinton can't control her advisers, how can she be President?" Maybe now the Obama camp and supporters will retract those comments too?

And when Clinton fired heer advisor for a similar idiotic gaffe, the Obama supporters were crying that it was all a scam, and that she had to have known about it and planned it. So the same must be true for Obama, right?

I knew Obama was green and unvetted,a long with some of his camp and supporters. I did not know they were hypocrites until now.

Obama/Clinton would mean two Vice Presidents and
Clinton/Obama would mean that Obama would be the Second V.P.
We need a clean break or stick to the same-old, same-old.

good idea.
The one with most delegates gets to pick who they want for VP

if hillary is on the ticket at all, I think that a lot of people will cross back over to the republicans, making it a much more even race...

most of the high turnout I think is caused by Obama, who, at least in my mind, is seen as almost a third party candidate, and therefore the numbers showing how democrats are turningout to vote 3:2 versus republicans is partially cause by this fact...

Obama is the average between McCain and HRC...

Sen. Obama will lose in his bid for the presidency with Hillary on the ticket, the citizens of this country will not allow Bill and Hillary back in the white house under any circumstances, Mr. Rendell suggestion shows the magnitude of the problem the Democratic party insiders have with a new guy like Barack unexpectedly popping up on the scene.
The voting public is not dazed by Gov. Rendell and others who make such an argument, my view is the Democratic will lose to a very weak Republican candidate with Hillary anywhere near the ticket.

Lyndon Johnson eventually accepted being VP to JFK after he couldn't overtake his delegate lead in 1960.

I wonder if Hillary will be willing to accept the silver medal? I doubt it but she's so desperate for power, she might.

The same darn guy that said America is not ready for a Black president. What a moron

Hillary will lose him the independent votes as V.P. Why choose a V.P. that decreases your chances of winning?

Also, even though her policies are the same, her character goes against what the Obama supporters are looking for: transparency, honesty, and accountability.

Keep her AWAY from his ticket!

Negative campaigns are very effective. Hillary's gutter politics these past few weeks have been so effective that I am now convinced she cares more about being President, than about our NATION. If she is awarded the nomination without winning the majority of the delegates, I will leave the Democratic Party and will NOT SUPPORT a ticket that does not include Senator Obama.

It is clear that either Obama or Clinton have secured a spot on the ticket. To those that think it would never happen, remeber that we used to make the loser of the general election the vice president–in this case, a Republican. We could use both of them in the White House.. and it would be nice to have the White House on the correct side of things for the next 16 years. They both have history to make.

Ummmm....no. I'm a Clinton supporter and if Obama is on her ticket I'll vote for McCain. I think Obama is a terrible leader with a campaign based on lies. I also think he has a hidden agenda. I wont' vote for him on any ticket, and that includes Hillary's.

As for Hillary going on Obama's ticket, she has better things to do. Unlike him, she enjoys being a Senator.

You Obama people. Hillary doesn't need Obama to do anything. I like the comment about the young people buying into the cult-like ability of Obama. That just about sums it up.

There's no way these two candidates will run together.

The Clinton lobbyists would force her to take someone they can control. It's just like the Clinton's on NAFTA and Iraq. Say one thing. If she's elected, she'll make sure to take someone else.

In February, Rendell made racist comments that front page news. Now, he's saying they should run together. Give me a break. Rendell was the DNC leader in 2000 election and he immediately told Gore to give up despite major problems in Florida. If Rendell did his job in 2000, we might not be in the same Florida voting mess in 2008.

Florida democrats are important. Why did Rendell not do his job then? Why did the president, Bill Clinton make sure America would never have a voting problem like again.

NO JOINT TICKET!!!!

1) Hillary can't win a general election.

2) Barack doesn't need Bill running around behind his wife telling her what to do.

A JOINT TICKET PROBABLY WOULD GET LESS VOTES, AS AFTER SUCH A DIVISIVE AND NEGATIVE CAMPAIGN IT WOULD BE QUALIFIED AS A COMPLETE HYPOCRESY.

AND OBAMA PROBABLY WILL NOT ACCEPT THE VP POSITION, AS A TICKET WITH HILLARY ON TOP WOULD BE PERCEIVED AS A LOSER

TOM

Obama/Jim Webb!! Virginia democrat and former marine. This is the ticket to the white house my friends.

Remember his democratic response? Impressive.

Obama/Pelosi 08

You're number one, Hillary...

If she pulls this out by winning Florida and/or Michigan all the Obama people better get on board or else it's 4 more years of Duh-bya and his policies courtesy of JSM (Sidney) and whomever he picks as the VP.

If Obama gets the nod, he'd better wise up and get with the program. He's gonna get torched by Rove, Limbaugh, and every other GOP hack there is and we STILL get McCain

So far it seems like HRC would be at least open to the possibility of a joint ticket while the Obama "army" seems completely closed to the idea

For all those who are clamoring about the Obama staffer, I think calling her a "monster" is a bit different than comparing tactics to Starr's. I don't particularly like HRC but all this diatribe about waiting for her to fire Wolfson is a waste of time

Of course Clinton and her surrogates want to throw the idea of a joint ticket out there-

CLINTON IS LOSING!

CLINTON IS LOSING!

CLINTON IS LOSING!

When she had a chance to win, before she ignored the insignificant states, she would think nothing of the matter.

IT IS TIME FOR A CHANGE! STAY POSITIVE! STAY ON TOP!

This OBAMA/CLINTON chat is ridiculous!
Hillary is the most qualified, most reality vs. obamalism unreal, and I CAN NOT BELIEVE he has even 1 supporter.

IF you remember the earlier debates when SHE LEAD, she was attacked in every one of them. WHY is this so NEW to anyone???

REMEMBER when BUSH promised to bring everyone together in WASHINGTON??? HE NOR ANYONE will ever do that! SO WHO CARES about Obama's speeches, his empty promises, and his UN-EARNED right to run. No one would even be looking at him if they were not mad or angry with Hillary.

GET OVER IT, and GET to the HILLtop with what's best for AMERICA and our children!!!!

HILLARY IS THERE and i'm ready to vote for her in April.

What a laugh.. Clinton has said EVEN MCCain't is more prepared than Obama. Clinton is a mean spirited woman. I love her foreign experience. Wonder how many tea parties and women's events she attended. Certainly she DID not make policy.

It would be nice to have a unified ticket, but there's so much hate and negativity by the supporters of both sides, that I don't see it happening. I, for one, cannot forgive the racism I've noticed from the Clinton supporters.

I will not vote for ticket with Clinton on it.

Hilary is a monster she will pull out all stop to get what she want, Shows her action if she gets into office, she says and does what she want to you, but don't bounce thats a problem forher. She has double standards.

I can't believe people think this is possible. Obama has a long career ahead of him and he would be throwing it away by attaching himself to her in any way. It sure helped Al Gore, didn't it?

If Clinton is anywhere on the ticket, Dems lose in November. If I could buy stock in it, I would.

No WAY! Clinton should run with McCain

Clinton/Obama '08!!
BO needs more training. This will give the Democrats the White House for the next 16 years.

we are experiencing the 8 years of this experience in the democratic republic of congo: 5.4 millions dead women,children and men.
Raped women,traumatized generation.., can we call it also a genocide??

Funds money flewn in and out of a company in Arkansas which was directly connected to hillary clinton and her husband bill!!
There are a lots of people who also can define their expericences of 8 plus 27 years of Sen.Hillary Clinton, but she will probably say she did it because the phone rang at 3pm and bill was sleeping!!!!!!

A Clinton/Obama ticket would mean that Hillary probably wouldn't have any competition in 2012. Meanwhile, look up Paul vs Clinton, a huge campaign finance fraud case, due to open in the court in November, shortly after the general election. Why is the media so silent on this one?
No wonder the Republicans think they can beat Hillary.

Getting Real

She has done NOTHING but belittle Obama, monk him and endorse McCain...she needs to be on McCains ticket. If she is on the ticket, I will not vote him. I love his political stance on things, the way he has actually helped people organize for more than a day visit, the way his campaign has been organized but if Hillary is on the ticket I will not vote for that negative woman.

Hey Zena, Hillary has not denegrated Obama, the media has. One of Obama's people just called Hillary a "Monster" and had to appologize and step down – are we blaming Obama? No so don't blame Hillary. She never "personally" attacked Obama. She has every right to question his credibility and experience (as does he) so please!! She has been a "Lady" and a "great sport" through all of her beatings. this lady has been "knocked down", beat up", "kicked in the stomach", "spit on", "spit out", and still got up and dusted herself off. That's a president – that's a female president – that's a champ! My Hillary

He may want to consider being Barack Obama's running mate because Hillary is starting to become more like Bill–everytime she opens her mouth, something stupid comes out!!! Obama will definitely become the next President of the United States of America, as well he should! I will cast my vote for him as a registered voter in the State of Mississippi on March 11th, as will my daughter and son-in-law!

I see the possible joint ticket as way to unite the party and to give a better chance of winning back the Presidency. I can understand people have personal preferences and emotional issues for both candidates, isn't it time to set aside our personal preferences and think about good of the country?

AB,

Do you honestly think Hillary is making her case for VEEP! PLEASE!!! She wants Obama to be VEEP!

I know I know....crazy aint it!

As much as it sounds like a dream ticket, regardless of who is on top, it would be a disaster. Lets be real. Do you not see a significant dempgraphic left out of that ticket, and it is also a demographic that historically can be counted on to turn out and vote. We may all agree that it should not be that way, but the reality "is what it is". What state would either candidate bring the other?

I am surprised that Joe Biden isn't in more of the VP speculation. Especially for Obama. He has the foreign policy experience, and all the years in the senate that Obama doesn;t (since 73), but either he isn;t interested or I am missing something.

Obama’s biggest criticism is his lack of experience. I know change is the cornerstone of his candidacy, but he were to apply reason to the notion of change he would realize that as the VP candidate we would almost certainly have 16 years of a Democrat in the White House. I think if he were to accept the VP ticket he would demonstrate that his message is really about the people rather than personal ambition.

Senator Obama will need to make a choice on who will be a good fit for president after his 8 years. It still will not be Hillary. But maybe... Speaker Nancy Pelosi

Clinton/Obama 08! ...would be unstoppable!

And although some folks would like to think that Obama's above excepting a VP under Clinton... I think we'll find he's a little more shrewd than folks give him credit for. The opportunity for 2016 as a VP would be just too tempting.

People whom crave power, don't suddenly stop craving it!

I think that it is funny, how if obama wins the nomination, democrats will vote for mccain and if hillary wins they will vote for mccain. Grow up people and vote for whichever democrat is on the ticket. It isn't fair to punish the nation by having mccain win because you voted for him instead of being loyal to a democrat. GROW UP AND VOTE FOR WHOEVER WINS THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION.

If counts the millions votes in Florida and Michegan, Senator Clinton already won. Howard Dean made stupid rule that caused the big problem ever for the party.

OBAMA IS DESPERATE. HE WANTS TO BE PRESIDENT BY ALL MEANS AND I AM SURE HE DOESN'T WANT TO CLINTON TO BE INVOLVED.

I WANT CLINTON TO BE PRESIDENT

GO HILLARY!

Ed Rendell is an idiot! He's my governor and I say that!

Rendell why don't you keep your Hillary mouth shut. If they go back on the rules for Florida and Michigan and Hillary wins I sincerely hope that all the Obama supporters vote for McCain, I KNOW I WILL. Let's just change the rules for Hillary. If Obama won Florida and Michigan Hillary would have kept her ego mouth shut.

Obama would be the best president America has ever had. A pure Democrat,

Just love this combo. Mr. No experience coupled with the meanest woman in politics. That's how the Democrats take the presidency.

McCain and whomever for President.

New whine in old bottles. The DNC should not let this happen. Obama and Hillary have learned to despise each other and would make an awful presidential team. Obama doesn't need Hillary's baggage and she doesn't want anyone to steal her thunder. This proposal sounds nice when spoken on the stump but is utterly stupid.

Hillary you will need to DENOUNCE and REJECT Ed Randell’s RACIST REMARKS.

If you want Hillary, you better vote for her because Obama is too pompous to offer it to her if he wins. He will offer it to another black. And then we will have a divisive campaign. He has already divided the country along racial lines. And look at the people he has in his campaign. Samantha Powers the "monster" comment! Do you really want these kinds of advisors running the country?

Hillary should win the nomination – she has won the big states and will win Florida, PA, and Michigan. GO Hillary! She will probably offer it to him???

For Obama to ask Clinton to be his VP would be the ultimate in "New School" politics. I don't see how he could do it after how she has run her campaign. For Clinton to ask Obama to be her VP would be the ultimate in "Old School" politics. It is the icing on the mud pie. I don't see how he could accept. This just won't happen!

Absolutely not! Since Hillary believes she's back in the game with her apparent "fairytale" wins this past Tuesday–let's go all the way! Let the people decide. If Obama wins, the democrats have my vote this time–if she's anywhere near the ticket: McCain, here I come!

At the rate this is going, it looks like the Republicans will have another 8 years!

Hillary you will need to DENOUNCE and RENOUNCE Ed Randell’s RACIST REMARKS.

Clinton supporters:

Because you support Hillary Clinton, you care about experience. Her campaign has told you that experience matters, and, because you want her to win, you have latched onto that as the criteria for selecting a president. So, please don't let that become your basis for selecting a president in the event she doesn't get the nomination. If you do, you will be ignoring the fact that Senator Obama shares many of the same policy positions.

Isn't this the same guy who said some people in his state aren't ready for a black president? Beat it, Lurch!

Obama has nothing to gain by being her VP .... a Billary administration has no VP. Strickland would be good for that 'position'.

If the superDs take the nomination from Obama, then so what ? Let the Democrats run into their defeat, but for Obama and his movement the fight would go on. It would just take another four years, and then I'd hope that he would run as an Independent, maybe with Bloomberg.

McCain or McClinton, both will blow the next four years and the American People would be REALLY MAD.

HELL NO!!!

BILLARY HAS NO CHANCE OF WINNING THE MOST PLEDGED DELEGATES, AND SHE NEEEDS TO DROP OUT, NOW!!!!

All she will do on the ticket is what McSame can't do, and that is unite the Republicans.

Pls. Hillary for the sake of the country and our party drop out, now!

I believe a Clinton/Obama ticket could be unifying ticket as well as give Obama some experience he desperately needs. I think he could be a great President 8 years from now, but for right now we need someone who knows what she's doing to clean up after the Bush mess and get our allies in the world back.

Obama/Clinton.........No Way...........Hillary is to negative.....Where is the outrage from Obama that the press is engaging in a double standard relating to his possible role in the Rezko trial and his refunding the $85,000 contributed to his campaign by Rezko- which Obama has always admitted taking. The media makes no mention of Hillary’s role as a witness in Bill’s fraud trial for defrauding Hillary’s largest donor- and Hillary’s refusal to refund the $1.2 million she illegally received from Paul, which she has denied taking from Paul ever since the Washington Post asked her about Paul and his felony convictions from the 1970’s before her first Senate election in 2000?

I'd like to see an Obama/Richardson ticket. That would give it regional balance and Richardson would add his executive and foreign policy experience. I was disappointed Richardson didn't come out and endorse Obama prior to Texas, it might have made a difference. And I think Obama should bring Richardson on board now to add new energy to the campaign, and not wait until the convention.

The only way that I want Hillary to go back to the White House is as a tourist! NO JOINT TICKET!

Hillary Clinton is a mad cow disease. She must leave the race, otherwise she will infect all democrats.

Rendell is a Clinton puppet. The Clintons have helped Rendell raise millions of dollars of money over the past decade, so I can understand his dedication to them.

For Rendell to be talking about a VP ticket, when everyone else is saying there are still 12 Democratic contests left and Obama is currently leading in total delegates, pledged delegates and popular vote, is simply a faust to lull Obama supporter's to sleep.

Why doesn't Rendell ask Obama to give Hillary the VP slot once she drops out?

I see no possibility of a joint ticket. HRC-supporters, consider this: Do you really think, that a lot afro-americans would vote for Clinton in November, if she beats Obama in a unfair way (by superdelegates, re-vote, negative-ads ...). I don´t think Hillary Clinton will become president. Maybe Obama can do it, but he seems to be more and more damaged. Thanks Hillary ...

Go Barry!

OBAMA/RICHARDSON 08´!

She has gone nuclear even to the point of making a commercial endorsing McCain over Obama and, inadvertantly, over herself as well as G.H.W. Bush over Bill!

She has no scruples, integrity or honor.

While she continues to play FEAR and SMEAR, she will play the victim and magnaminous politico all the while she and her surrogates viciously attack anyone in their way.

Heed Bill Clinton's sage advice:

"If one candidate’s trying to scare you and the other one’s trying to get you to think, if one candidate’s appealing to your fears and the other one’s appealing to your hopes, you better vote for the person who wants you to think and hope."

If it comes down to a joint ticket , "Clinton" must be President not Vice President.
I would consider voting for a "Clinton" / "Obama" ticket (notice i said consider) but not likely.
But i will NOT vote for a "Obama"/ "Clinton" ticket.

When Hillary’s improprieties come out good old Obama and his integrity will soften the blow she has things to hide it is only a matter of time before its found Obama has to much integrity to run his campaign to destroy he could he wont and good for him Obama In Hillary out or McCain gets my vote

She's just saying that to get votes!!!! she smears him to the point where it will be impossible for him to join!!!!

As president, Bill Clinton pardoned Viktor Bout's partner Marc Rich before he left the office.

Will Hillary Clinton "reject" any pardon request for the merchant of death Viktor Bout if she becomes president?

Obama should offer her the position of Driver.

BTW...Rendell is exacrly what he looks like in that pic...a tool

If Obama wins the nomination, Hillary can forget about the VP offer. If the Clintons steal the nomination, She will offer the VP to him but he should turn it down. If he loses, he should run for the Governor of Illinois. The man is a leader he does not need to be a number 2 to anyone. The VP spot is severely overrated. The VP rarely becomes president later. Also, Obama would be dragged down by all the scandals of the Clintons if he pursued the presidency later. Why would he take on the baggage of the Clintons. Hillary is trying to drive a wedge thinking that if she floats this idea Obama supporters will support her. If Obama is not at the top of the ticket, I don't even vote. America needs Obama as president now not eight years later.

Hillary has endorsed McCain, she might just be his VP. The joint ticket will never happen, that is why it is a DREAM ticket. It is a ticket for DREAMLAND. Obama will win the nomination and will pick someone else.

Well, well well, look what the Clinton campaign's cooked up this time.

I thought it was McCain/Clinton 08?? At least that's what it seems like these days.

Obama has no reason to ask Clinton to be a part of his ticket. Clinton on the other hand, she needs Obama's support because she needs the support of the people.

Aren't we all tired of this dirty politics....we're smarter than this cheap rhetoric and win at all costs campaigning. We see what you're trying to do Hillary...and it isn't working!

OBAMA 08!

Rendell's racial comments last month suck in a major way. He was a good mayor, but now everyone can see he's a bigot if there ever was one. And so is Hillary.

Don't let the Clintons push the whole country to the back of the bus, just like the Bushes did. A plague on both their houses.

Vote for Obama.

James....excellent point! Kathleen Sebelius is a great person as VEEP...not mention Edwards....actually, true independents and maybe even an honest republican like Colin Powell would really show Obama is looking for talented people no matter the "party." It's all about the country folks....not a fantasy football game. We must support people that want to work for the good of the USA and the world, not the good of themselves (Hillary), special interests, and even the party.

Helllooooo! Clinton represents EXACTLY what Obama's campaigning against! She accepts lobbyist money, she's been accused of some "not so clean" dealings and she's tried to run him down her garbage disposal with throwing her kitchen sink and dirty dishwater at him....and this guy thinks Obama wants her for VP? He must be of small IQ.

Clinton all but admits defeat!

But she wants power!

So as loser she wants Obama as her VP, to be treated the same way as Al Gore was treated by her husband!

Forget it!

Clinton you've lost, America has won.

Bye bye Clintons'.

Ohhh boy, I haven't seen so much hate since some of the southern states declared secession from the Union.........ohhh yeah, we're going old school......

You all must understand one thing, Obama DOES NOT need Clinton to win the Presidency. He needs Webb (for Nat'l Security reasons), Richardson (Latinos), Edwards (for blue collar workers), or Gore (just because he's Al Gore).
On the other hand, Clinton has ZERO chance of winning the Presidency without Obama, that is why she's bringing this up. She should be begging Obama to get on his ticket as the VP instead of implicating that Obama will be her VP. 'Silly season' in politics.

A little collegial arm twisting to get Obama to concede and join forces no doubt.

How can two people like these who have emmensely prospered from the opportunities and financial rewards of a free and capitalistic nation–desire to create a new order with government controlling all aspects of society and depriving those same opportunities to millions of other Americans.

Beats me.

If Hillary wins, I don't think she will offer VP because Obama is old washington political player, with full of rhetoric. If Obama wins, Hillary should not take VP, because if Hillary clear out mess as VP Obama would hope came true and take the credit. I don't think this joint ticket is good for democracy, Hillary supporters would be disappointed if Obama wins & vote for Mccain which will make this mess greater mess

Never Hillary as VP.

She would do an LBJ on him, remember Dallas!!

You never want someone with that much to gain behind your back, EVER...

Tel

The only way to heal the party is to put them both on the same ticket. Both sides have attacked the other side but that is what happens in a close competition. They are both going to be great leaders and we will need both of them to clean up after Bush. Let's stop attacking each other and make this happen !!! We dont want to see McCain win bc the party is developing harsh feelings toward the democratic candidates that is not the first choice. We can do it TOGETHER !!!

Obama-Clinton '08 Bill gets to be "second" man. Magnificent!

There's already a VP for Sen Clinton: Bill Clinton.

So where would Obama fit in? Would he just be used to attract the voters at election time and then pushed aside? I don't see Obama doing such a thing. I don't see voters approving such a thing either.

Clinton can do better than Obama. Anyway I don"t believe his ego would let him. Obama would never ask Clinton. Obama having a vice-president thats stronger, more experienced and of substance who make him look inadequate as President..

So if Clinton would offer it to Obama, then she is being untruthful when she says that Obama is not ready to be President. The Vice-President must be ready to be President. Obama is ready to be President, but Clinton is trying to say he isn't. So this is another example of her double-speak. She will say anything to win.

I wouldn't share a ticket with this woman if she were the last candidate on earth. I would want a person of integrity, decency, honesty, equanimity and character. She fails miserably on all of them ... and more.

THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN!!

People, please don't be fooled like the people in Ohio by what Clinton says. She lyed about the whole "NAFTA-GATE" issue so she could win... now shes lying about a "DREAM TICKET" to win in PA.

PLEASE PLEASE PEOPLE... WAKE UP!!!

No way, imagine Bill in the middle. Obama is not an idiot like Hillary.

Hillary's supporters are pushing for a joint ticket because if she wins the nomination from Obama, she is going to need him to win the general election. Basically she needs him and he doesn't need her. So, don't offer her the VP obama

Charlotte – Actually you're DEAD WRONG. Studies have shown that the biggest beneficiaries of Affirmative Action were/are white women.

If you Obama supporters think he can win the election without the Clinton supporters votes think again. If you want another 4-8 years of MCBush just keep her off the ticket if she wants the spot. The entire democratic party better get behind a Clinton-Obama or Obama-Clinton ticket if we want to win back the White House. We are going to have to join forces and say YES THEY WILL!!!!

I for one can say that PA is looking very promising for Hillary !!!

We here in Pa are focusing on REAL issues facing our nation. Food on the table, health care card in the wallet, and a job to go to when we wake up every morning!

Hillary is our BEST solution for the real issues facing our nation

GO HILLARY.... Obama Camp.... meet us in PA !!

Are these people smoking crack?

Anything to get another wiff of the White House, huh Hillary.

This is a joke, isn't it?
Exercise the nuclear option in the Democratic Party and you are rewarded with the Vice Presidency?
I suspect Obama might feel as strongly about Clinton as his Veep as Jack and Bobbie Kennedy did about LBJ.
He needs a substantive foreign policy/military/security expert for VP not a divisive former First Lady.

Having a Clinton/Obama ticket would not be a wise decision. It would be dramamatic during the whole administration, and nothing for the people would get accomplished. Obama would have to clean up behind her and her husbands mess. Remember the past Clinton administration. There is nothing new under the sun with them.

Obama/should team up with a candidate that is for the people. Suggestions, Edwards, Caroline Kennedy, etc, You get my point.

Someone with integrity.

Not a Negative candidate who thinks of herself only. She learned her behaivor from her husband.

We're not blind. We all can see it. It's not rocket science!

I will vote for Obama,

BUT NEVER HILIARY & OBAMA....

This idea is ridiculous. After all of the humiliation and disgracing of his candidacy by Hiliary, I wouldn't give her a second thought.

Hillary is like a CRYING BABY She knows how to manipulate her parents. If she cannot win it in her own, then I want to IMPOSE IT on OBAMA to make me the OFFER.

DISCENT PEOPLE DON'T DO THAT. Discent people are offered the job, they don't try to HIJACK the posisiton.

HILLARY YOU HAVE A NERVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PENSILVANIA WILL NEVER VOTE FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Why would Obama want to take on all of the Clinton baggage? He's too smart to offer her a VP position.

As long as Billary would not be on the top i'd still vote for the combined ticket. if she is on top, i would not. There is no way i could vote for more of the same from the Clintons. how many more 'gates' can we endure. how many more times do we have to see her 'forgiving her straying husband?' i say enough of them. please...anybody but Clinton

people,people,people, let it go to the convention, it allows everyone
to vent their frustration at the direction the republican have taken this country.
then when the woman wins, we'll have a better country within her first
tour of duty.
mr. obama, wheres the beef.
to all you obamanites, youth has its advantages, it allows you the time to lick your wounds and come to your sense's.

Rendell sounds stupid because the fact still remains, Hillary needs Obama but Obama doesn't need Hillary. Obama voters have proven, we will not support Hillary. So don't even try it.

I think if the DNC does the math not just on delegates, they would see that Obama brings much more to the table. He is able to raise significantly more money than Clinton and bring more people to the fold to a dying party. He is able to make inroads in states where there were none and make this a 50 state election rather than a short sided 'big' state election. This is the longer term vision, not a short stint on Pennsylvania Aven.

Hillary may extend the offer to Obama but there is no way Obama would choose Hillary as his running mate. She is too far from his core message. I think if Obama wins, then Biden or Richardson would be the front-runner as a running mate.

No Obama/Clinton or Clinton/Obama ticket. That will be such a betrayal of both campaigns because the two campaigns are polar opposites on principle.

And this request is coming from a known racist, Hillary's biggest supporter. Amazing, I guess they think the American people will bow down and give HIllary the ticket for the sake of ending this campaign war....will Hillary, we're just getting warmed up!

Picking a VP is supposed to be about picking someone that is ready to lead if something should happen to the President. If Hillary is suggesting that she would pick Obama to be her VP then she is saying that he is ready to lead! Obama should run with this.

if barack does in fact win the GE on a joint ticket, this election has shown that hillary would at least consider drugging him so that she could rise to the presidency.

Bad idea, some people just don't forget that easily, less that a week she has endorsed McCain publicly on the record, she just came back on earth and realizes she has no chance now they are pushing for a joint ticket lol

Clinton needs Obama....

Obama does not need Clinton.....

Who is the better canidate?

I will vote only if Sen. Clinton comes out with an apology for the negative campaign and lies

I'd probably vote republican if Hillary was even the VP candidate. Just too much of a possibility of her ending up in the white house. Not worth the risk.

Why would Obama need her while he is the leader who can win on his own. She will a baggage he will be carrying in his terune otherwise. She couldn't be believed either.

This is the same guy that said in PA White people will not vote for a Black person. Please

Why isn't anyone asking Hillary about her comments practically endorsing John McCain. The DNC and news media should be questioning her loyality to the Democratic party. Why has the media not picked up on the Nafta-Canadian-Clinton connection that was misreported. Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Get on the issues or we are going to have another president that "you can have a beer with". That criteria got us in this mess to begin with.

Obama/Billary ticket? Not till hell freezes over! As a VP, Billary will claim that she is running the country just like she did before – at least that's how she got her "experience".

NO WAY should Barack offer the VP nod to Hillary Clinton if he wins the nomination. The Clintons are the biggest scam artists in Washington and Barack does not need to infect his campaign with the Clinton cancer. I'm from NY, and would love to see Mike Bloomberg on the ticket. His political views are on point and unbiased. He would undoubtedly make a great VP.

You cant compare Ken Star to Monster.... Grow Up.... also im glad that Texas and Ohio people dumped the kool Aid out ...smart move...

Clinton for 4 years. Will not seek second term. Obama gets some experience and goes for 8 more years. Howard Dean's 50-state dream becomes reality.
Beyond McCain, I don't see any good Republican in the future. Not yet. But Obama can deal with it easily. He is still young.

Why would they discuss this when the Obama campaign is imploding?

Let the B (Obama) 'movement' get flushed down the 'toilet.'

Obama would lose his support If he accept being her VP. This is about the Past Vs the Future. Barack do not give in you have got this won. Stay above the garbage. I would not vote for her even with you on the ticket.

Makes one wonder what position in the whitehouse she promised him?
President Obama would be a fool to have a running mate with such a dispicable person.

I am simply a good American & neither Republican nor Democrat. My vote is still 'up in the air'. Great % of Obama's appeal is he represents change. Clinton is business as usual & this goes against the grain of attractiveness of Obama. Joint ticket would be great for Clinton but BAD for Obama.

Obama should completely ignore this discussion and not even comment on it. HRC is desperate...she sees the writing on the wall. SHe is throwing this out in hopes that if he wins, and she is not offered it, he looks like the bad guy.

Give us a break! We can see right through this. Obama doesn't need her to win this.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Barack don't go to the dark side.. you are too good to be her lap dog.. let the force guide you Barack! I will be forever sad if you "sell out" to that person.. please don't do it!!!

That would be a huge huge mistake. I wont vote if Hillary is on the ticket.

The problem with a Hillary/Obama ticket is that a lot of woman republicans and democrats that would vote for Hillary will not vote for Obama. If Obama is on the ticket, they might go to McCain. We want to see a Hillary/Webb, Hillary/Biden or Hillary/Richardson ticket.

I will not vote this ticket if in fact this is the case. I will vote Mccain instead.

Potential Independent for Mccain.

Why would either candidate offer the other the VP job when they both have ill feelings toward each other. To me, that ticket would just mean "we" will do anything to win. I want the nominee to pick the best person that they feel is qualified to help them run this country. Not because 50% of the people like Hillary and 50% like Barack.

To heck with Rendell. In an era of acute partisan politics, any ticket that features Hillary "the great divider" Clinton will not accomplish anything. If any, Obama/McCain migh have been more appropriate

I think is Senator Clinton wins Pennsylvania, the other big state, it should end there and forget the do over in Florida and Michigan and Senator Obama team up with her after that. You know if she wins Pennsylvania that she will win Floriday and Michigan again for sure, so why waste the money on doing it again.
Clinton/Obama ticket – yeah!!!! That would be a quick healing of the party!

It also looks like she's trying to eat into Obama's base by making it seem like a vote for her would eventually be a vote for him too! *shakes head* Solutions! yeah right!

I'm glad the fact that Hillary is clearly making her case for VP is coming out. She is now continuing her campaign in order to boost her chances of becoming the VP to Obama! I think Obama should consider making that offer and have this whole thing come to an end!

what would be so bad with this combo either way!
something has to give in the nastiness surrounding both camps
they are both democrats and this is dragging on just getting worse every day.... pulling the party down

*together* they could both conquer MCBush in the fall
Isnt that the most important thing!
who needs 4 more years of Bushs policies!!

No way. Obama doesn't need her. McCain will offer Hillary his VP spot. She is campaigning for the Reps already.

Senator Obama doesn't want to go negative like the Clinton campaign is more than will to. But that does not mean the media should not report on happenings like Rezko, "I haven't been really proud", and the Canadian NAFTA ordeal that turned out to be falsely focused on Obama rather than Clinton costing Obama votes in Ohio, Texas, Vermont, and Rhode Island. So where is the coverage of the Peter Paul election fraud case being successfully delayed until November after the elections will be over? This is a media responsibility to put it out there.
Look it up, PETERPAUL.COM. If the media won't report on it do your own research. This is just one of many cases the media should be reporting but chooses not to for whatever reasons. Clinton more than willing to throw the kitchen sink with the garbage disposal fully functioning. Obama does not want to bring up negative issues like this against Senator Clinton. Therefore, she has taken full advantage of it claiming to be the victim while attacking at the same time.

One minute you say that all Obama is, is a speech from 2002 but yet he's good enough to run on the ticket with you!! How can you even make such claims when YOURE LOOSING? It sounds to me that Hillary is trying to draw up a "treaty" before she gets blown away completely!! Did her wins in Ohio and Tx really make her think that she's the front runner now? She needs a few more wins before she can make such claims! I love Hillary to death but she is REALLY REALLY beginning to turn me off!!

Being a Clinton supporter, I can see why he would say this. Being an Obama supporter, I say- "when hell freezes over!"
What a nightmare. She is everything he is fighting against.

A Obama Hillary ticket is a recipe for disaster. America desrves a government that works. Two candidates tangled involved that much bitterness and fierce fighting can't effectively work togather and run the government. My dream ticket is Obama Al-Gore!!!

All of this back and forth stuff is getting out of hand… I read all the posts on here and people are fighting over words and gossip… this is getting out of control… this is exactly what the Republicans want to happen…

Obama's ad in Miss… that was a spin and taken out of context… if you read the story she was commenting on the fact that neither Iowa or Miss have never had a woman elected… She was shocked to hear that…

What is sad is if you watch CNN last night the Republican Analyst was cut off when he started to talk about how Obama was the easier candidate to beat… A democratic analyst questioned the math scenario because Clinton has won the states that by the electoral college gives her the nomination… all of them were cut off and it is sad that the real stories do not surface…

Both of them were telling CNN why the super delegates are not taking sides… this has caused a split in the democratic party… the super delegates are afraid of all of the threats of not voting… we are headed for a disaster!!! The republicans are fanning the flame.

Ed Rendell is a rascist!
While the rest of the world is moving away from rascism and bigotry, Ed Rendell is still making disparaging and denigrating comments that put African Americans and minorities down.
I do beliEve he is in the right camp – the Billary Campaign; where you have people like Hillary, who is putting down Mississippi with her negative comments and gender smear campaign rhetorics as well as Bill Clinton, with his South Carolina sad rascist remarks!

I'm surprised that all of a sudden Rascist Ed Rendell is now asking for an African American to be in a ticket with Billary!

SHAME ON YOU Ed Rendell and the Billary Clinton's!

OBAMA is the uniter – VOTE OBAMA!!!

The Clinton's and their subordinates are selling the idea to have Obama as a vice president as a win-win situation. No way Jose!
The reason, we, the new voters, independents and old voters are engaged and voting for Obama is to look for a new way of doing politics.
Hillary does not represent a departure from old politics and negative campaigns. Actually they are making all the efforts to drag him into their muddy campaign. Having Obama as a vice president will destroy the hope for change that we have deposited on him and will move him to the dark side (Clintons politics). We are not voting for more of the same. We do not want Hillary as a vicepresident neither. We want real change. Obama with a new staff.

Hillary might make a good Vice President.

I believe Obama supporters are a bit blind to this.

What I see as a Hillary supporter, is an attempt at a gradual run to a united party. By throwing this offer out, people are looking at both candidates in a new light. I for one am looking at Obama differently than I have. I'd always looked at him based on his supporters. His supporters are arrogant, and down right mean in some instances, therefore always came to the conclusion that Hillary was my gal.

Her mentioning a joint ticket gets me looking at his political side. Tho I cannot vote for him in a General Election over McCain, I could possibly vote for him with Hillary on the ticket.

Some people say that more Obama supporters would (not) vote for Hillary. This statistic is wrong. The actual statistics are reversed, and give a good reason. Clinton can still offer change, Obama cannot however offer experience, and that is what the vast majority of Clinton supporters want.

No.
I don't want Hillary anywhere near the White House. She's toxic.

NOOOOOOOOO. Does anyone really think that there could be a cooperative atmosphere with Hillary's jealousy of Obama? She wouldn't work with him and he wouldn't want to work with her after all the dirty tricks she has played, like costing him votes for NAFTA Gate when it is HER campaign that did it.

No way.

I'm in PA. I did not vote for Ed Rendell, especially after he endorsed and helped to elect John Street as Mayor in Phila. He is another political opportunist, just like Clinton. I'm not surprised he backs her.

I will oppose any ticket with Clinton on it, either as President or VP.

NO MORE CLINTON, NO MORE BUSHES.

And Rendell's time will be up soon, too.

I think because people are separated by supporting either Obama or Clinton, this would be a way to bring both side together when campaigning against McCain.
I fear if this is not at least offered our party will remain divided and we cannot afford the Republicans another 4 years.

How can Clinton & Obama be on the same ticket, when Clinton has all but destroyed him with her constant barrage of attacks?! Is Rendell blind?!

The Democrats have shot themselves in the foot, and nearly destroyed their chances of winning the White House!

If McCain is elected the Democrats can thank Hillary Clinton for endorsing McCain and attacking Obama.

This is ridiculous! And sad!

In chess, it's always the losing opponent that wants to offer a draw.

Sorry Billary, Obama isn't taking a draw. He's in this to win it, and he doesn't need Billary to do it. But the same can't be said in vice versa!!

Obama 08

It is so amazing how much the Obama campaign points the finger. If they don't want to engage in a joint ticket than fine. But don't dismiss Clinton's actions as dubious. How stupid do they think we are? As if we don't know the difference between voting for a President and a Vice President. Obama should get his head out of his Behind and start SHOWING the public that he is truly for unity and doesn't just like to talk about it.

Crossover republicans will not vote for Obama if Clinton is on the ticket. But they will vote for Obama if someone like Edwards is on the ticket.

I dont think Obama should do this.

Obama couldn't trust her that much. I wouldn't.

If Obama wins and Hillary is not on the ticket. I will never never vote for him! He is a flip flopper. Now he is showing he is like all politicians.

I find it rather upsetting that CNN still has not discussed on the air that Clinton made the comment to the Canadian goverment about her NAFTA position being political rheortic. When is the news going to discuss how she has been putting down Obama with her sly racial comments. Why isn't she firing the staffer who circulated the pictures of him with a Kenyan outfit insinuating that he was a Muslim? The news is not being hard on her as she claimed but easy. She is getting away with dirty politics, slander and untruths. Obama should refused to join the ticket with her until she provides him and the American people an apology for mistreating him, insulting people of color with her sly racial comments and lying to the American people about her record and the NAFTA situation.

No way! Obama will not be your VP. He is going to win the nomination and will not select you as his VP. The Obama aide that called Clinton a monster is right and you know you can't work with a monster. I know Obama camp apologized to be polite but she is king of monsters even Hillary knows that she is.

Lets get real!!!!Are we going to allow Hillary Clinton to set the tone: freeze super delegates, create the fuss with Fl & MI, and now insist the firing of someone else's campaign staff?? "If you cant take the heat, get out of the kitchen and take Bill with you". I am sick and tired of dirty tricks by the Clintons. What face would we see in the White House..weeping, yelling shame on you, or nice nice like SNL? Please everyone wake up and see what is in front of you!!

You see, Mr. Rendell, that after your slimy candidate Hillary has relentlessly trashed Obama for weeks now (throwing an unprecedented amount of slime at a same-party opponent), it would seem inconsistent for her to ask him to join her ticket. That's one of the consequences of the filthy campaign she's been running.

Also, unless she finds a way to steal the election, she will not have the option of selecting anybody...

I agree with Rush. Obama/Hillary is a nightmare ticket that will award the election to John McCain with no contest.

Obama is having his staff to do his dirty work. It's ok, nobody cares, it is old politics. Obama people have so thin skin they need to come out and swinging with negative of their own instead of having his staff go after Hillary here and there. That's not going to work. Oh, wait a minute, I forgot, he is running himself as "holier than thou" candidate and little college students with naive perception of politics following like some kind of cult movement. Thank god, Clinton stop them. I thought this country has gone crazy.

I don't think Obama would pick her. She practically endorsed John McCain the other day, she smeared him as a "muslim" even though he is a lifelong Christian. She's been too ugly.

I think Obama should choose Kathleen Sebelius, gov. of Kansas, as his VP. A woman on the ticket would be great, just not that nasty ruthless divisive Hillary.

I think that ole Hillary is realizing how she is crushing the enthusiasm of so many young voters, and that what she is doing with her campaign is going to turn them off enormously. I say she should have thought about the consequences before she started her crusade to win at any cost.

Additionally, I don't think that Rendell, an ardent Hillary supporter, should be offering options at this time.

Obama's campaign brushes aside any speculation on the matter as "premature," and some backers of the Illinois senator have suggested the Clinton campaign raises the prospect so voters think a vote for her will come with Obama as well.

That's exactly what she's doing. As well as hedging her bets to try and force him into picking her as VP when he wins.

No way should he pick her as VP, she'll be constantly cutting him off at the knees as much as she can.

If a joint ticket were possible, I can't see Obama being on top of the ticket because people would go to Hillary instead of Obama. It's called cutting out the middleman. He looks to her for answers in the debates and that would carry over to the White House. He would have to find someone weaker then himself and I can't think of anyone. I wish we lived in a perfect world but we do not. This is going to be an election for the history books. Most young people have no idea what it was like to be a female in the sixties. Unless you were twice as intelligent and very beautiful, you did not stand a chance in the mens world. Affirmative action helped women and minorities. It was more helpful to male minorities than women. Young girls today can study to be engineers, doctors, lawers anything they want to be. In my day that was not the case. My forte was space and mechanics, guess what, that field was not open to women at all. So, if you want to know why we support Hillary, think about how much she has done to help women and minorities fulfill their dreams. It is easy to dismiss the people who paved the way for the youth of today. Easy to say, so what, that was yesterday

Might be the only way, but Hillary has to be the VP.

I will be shock if this happen

McCain will be the clear choice with Hilary Clinton on the ticket.

On either side of the Democratice ticket, Hilary Clinton will do for the Democratic Party what George W. Bush has done for the Republicans.

Unfortunately, Obama appears to be weak. Folding to Clinton's outrageous demand for Samantha Powers to resign! If he can't stand up for his people making the mildest of "PC" mistakes at the same time as Clinton core professionals attack him with links to Ken Starr, Farrakan, and other folks far afield from his clear core beliefs.

I am a strong Obama supporter. But, McCain with a democratic congress my be a better 4 year solution for the democrats should the Clinton machine twist arms with promises of favors or retribution. Let's face it, the Democratic party seems weak. Where is Obama's fortitude!

This rumors benefit Clinton, who wants to suggest that voting for her would also benefit Obama. I fail to understand how Obama could accept such an offer without contradicting the essence of his campaign which is directed against 'old style' politics, and without compromising his future attempts to become President.

I don't think Obama should be Hillary's vice president...next thing years from now she will say it took a clinton (white woman) to make the dream /fairytale/whatever they want to call it come true.

Obama, if it does work out, just know that you tried your best and move on. Al gore is doing pretty well without being a president. I hope you win though...

If it comes to voting between two senators who voted for the war in Iraq, many of the military family (members, former members, and the dependents of members) are going to vote for the one whose children have completed military tours in the Middle East, not the one whose child takes campaign tours to places like Hawaii: That translates into McCain over Clinton.

The economic mess we are in is a result of their bad judgements on the war. Obama has sound judgement where Clinton's is like her marriage–one of convenience. The democrats better figure it out that Obama stands a much better chance of winning in the big show.

And what if Hillary steals away the Democratic nomination; and she selects another old flunky, like Biden or Nelson, for her Veep?

And what if McCain is clever enough to select Colin Powell as his running mate?

And what if a big chuck of Obama's supporters were so fed up with the Clintons and their crap, they stampede together to the McCain-Powell ticket in November?

I would not mind Barack extending the VP position to HRC, but she has denegrated him so much in public that the world would see the ticket as a FARCE.

Why would Barack want someone who lies, lacks in character, and will do ANYTHING to gain power?

What the heck? How can you be a Clinton supporter and speak such blasphemy? Are you believing in the power of numbers too? Barack Obama should get a grin out of this one.s But if this a ploy to get PA voters to think a vote for Clinton will come with Obama as well, GOOD JOB!.

The loser will clearly be Clinton, Politicians know the outcome so their just pressuring clinton to accept it, either way i don't see why Obama would pick her since she's full of negativity!

If a party can't even run a primary election properly, I don't know if they can run the country properly

I think it is good idea for the democrat party to win in general election.

If she steals the nomination she should ask Carl Rove to be her VP. It would be a perfect fit.

A ticket with Clinton is not worth, because she was too nasty in this campaign. She is not the person I look forward to lead me.

Clinton/Obama '08!!
It's the best way to harness the incredible energy generated in this race, get us the more capable president now, give BO the training he needs, and give the Democrats the White House for the next 16 years!

That would never happen. As long as both candidates are spending millions to get votes anyway. Why don't they just split the cost of the Florida, Michigan re-do so to speak. Maybe the Democratic party would kick in a third? You're buying the votes anyway.

I agree. I think Clinton would offer it to Obama. I don't think Obama would offer to Clinton. This is about the only way to heal the party now. I ask undecided voters to choose the person who is willing to hold out the olive branch if she wins.

Hillary 08

Talk about power hungry.

Connect the dots people… Crist is in line to be McCain's VP, he's leading the Fl MI recount/re-vote, Hillary will buy the nomination for 35 Mill, probably not a penny of it will be her own money, McCain/Crist will then beat Hillary in the National… Wow, this is even worst than the last election Florida messed up…

And the worst part is, Florida gets EXACTLY what they wanted by moving up their primary in the first place… to be the deciding vote.

Your system is messed. You get what you deserve… unfortunetly, the rest of us have to live, or die, because of your stupid childish irresponsible actions.

Shame on you.
