I wil be so angry if Hillary is on that ticket. She does not deserve it, after her sad perfomance of a Democratic candidate. She needs her walking papers. I know Barack will be tempted to put her on the ticket, but I hope he doesn't do it. He will open himself up to scandals, lies and headache, after headache.

Don't do it Barack, you deserve better.

Obama 08

I am for Hillary but I would still vote for McCain if Obama was anywhere near working in the White House…. he's scary and doesn't have anything of major accomplishment. Obama – clean up inner city Chicago first then maybe we'll talk (probably not).
Hillary and Edwards (okay, I know Edwards doesn't want it but that would be a great ticket)

Senator Clinton will be LUCKY to win the New York senate election next time around . The Clinton and Bush names . HISTORY.

Goos because Obama doesn't need anyone untrustworthy on his ticket!!

Headline: "Clintons split over Colombia's trade pact"

Hillary's attempt to defuse Mark Penn's blunder or should I say her blunder?

Come on Madame Clinton, we are not fools. You fooled the people from Ohio and Texas and now you are trying to fool the people in Pennsylvania. You are in it with Bill.

Who wants Obama on any ticket? Not me.

Maybe he should be Hillary's speech-writer. He certainly doesn't have any other experience we should expect of someone looking to lead this country.

Go Obama!!! Hillary and Bill divided the Democratic party. Barak can do better than Hillary for a running mate!!!

Go Obama!!!

YES WE CAN!!!

hey Fred

do you watch Lifetime network ?

I betcha you TIVO the view don't you

are ya into Bette midler ?

I am just trying to figure out what type of guy screams GO HILLARY

Between Fred and Sue… You can make a judgement of who is supporting the right person. Fred reflects a whole lot of Hillary, her campaign and supporters.

What a shame the Congress and Senate of 1947, could not imagine the spouse of the President running for President. If they had, we may not have to watch the Democratic Party loose face in the public eye. The 22nd amendment would read: No person or their spouse shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person or their spouse who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.

It is perfectly understandable that Obama and Hillary wouldn't want to be on the same ticket. Nothing wrong or harmful about that.

I wish them both well, as they both must surely believe they are doing what they think best, but ultimately, my vote goes to Obama.
Kansas City, MO

Please, let's stop being so vicious to the Dem candidates! One of them has to go on the ticket and once that's established we have to come together and support him OR her — remember the priority: NOT ANOTHER SEVEN YEARS LIKE THE LAST!….

If Obama makes President and Hillary is VP, how long would it be before he has a suspect accident that would make her President? You can't trust her!

Nancy Pelosi needs to stay out of this. As a County worker I know what she is trying to do and honestly I am very dissapointed in her. She needs to stay neutral on this and obviously she is not. Remember Mrs. Pelosi that you might run again for your post pls be careful what you say and what you are trying to pull.

pelosi is right,hillary will be difficult to work with unless she is the Boss.but for all intents and purposes,both obama and clinton on same ticket is a sure win for the dem.hope hill clinton has not done enough damage to make unity impossible.

My aunt use to say:

God don't like ugly, and he aint that crazy about pretty either.

It's not what's on the outside, but what's on the inside.

Vote smart America, vote for Barack, and a decent VP.

Never gonna happen! Hillary's lies are just too much for anyone to handle, much less for Obama to forigve. She should quit now and save herself the embarrasment of losing.

OBAMA '08!!!!

Pelosi does NOT know JACK about divisive candidates:

Kennedy and Johnson VERY BITTER Primary campaign even more so than this one, if you can believe that…had to go to the Superdelegates…Outcome: Kennedy as Pres and Johnson as VP.

I also think it would be the best of both worlds….if it DID happen, you can bet McCain would want Rice on his ticket at that point.

Truly, who cares what Reverend Wright thinks…he is not the one running for office. What I truly care about is where Obama, Clinton and McCain stand on the issues. I was raised in the Catholic Church, I am still attend the Catholic church…..I go to church because of my relationship to God…not because of the priest, or their political stands. God knows the Catholic Church has all kinds of problems, from the sex abuse scandal to their stand on contraception that is creating poverty and helping spread HIV in third world country. I still attend the church because of my relationship with God….if my attendance (or anybody attendance) depended on our agreement with the Pastor, Rabbi, or Priest…nobody would attend church in the first place.

How about Obama/Pelosi 2008? Works for me!

Could it be that Nancy's hoping for that slot herself? Just a thought….

Eugene, OR

Can't we all just get along. How are you going to save the country if you can't work together. That brings us right back to where we are today, an ineffective president and an ineffective congress. No wonder we are the world's big joke.

Thank God!! I would NOT WANT HILLARY (or should I say Billary) on ANY ticket!! It's not convinient for Obama at all!! More than half of all democrats hate Hillary!

Even in California polls Obama leads by a healthy margin now, people regret voting for Hillary on Feb. 5th! She has made such a desperate fool of herself, and she has been caught in some of her lies, there are other lies that remain to be revealed. She can't even RUN HER OWN CAPAIGN OR PAY HER BILLS. She has hundreds of thousands of $$ in unpaid HEALTH insurance bills for her employees.

Her health care plan is mandated, which means YOU WILL BE FORCED TO BUY it, wether you can afford it or not.

No more lies, no more deception/secrecy, we are not children!

Pelosi has much more intelligence and capacity than hillary!

OBAMA/PELOSI 2008!!!

Impossible indeed! Obama stands for what's positive about America.
Billary and Slick Willy represent all that's negative—dishonesty, disingenuousness, deceit. Billary degrades herself every day she stays with her cheating, lying hubbie. When Obama wins the nomination I'm sure he'll pick an individual of character. It sure isn't Billary!!

I meant to say watch your back.

Who is she to say anything? She hasn't even followed through on her promises of what she would do in the "first one hundred days" for the people of this country.

The more I see of Hillary the less I like politics. I think Barack will be a breath of fresh air because he will speak for all minorities, not just blacks. He will speak for Asians, Latinos, American Indians, and yes, Whites. I love his spirit because it is the American spirit.

Go Barack

Footnote: You need a VP that won't be so divisive.

Hillary is a witch. Nobody is going to want to be on her ticket. You would have to watch your bag , her lying mouth and her sneaky husband.

Thank God!!! I wouldn't want Hitlery on any ticket!!! Hitlery isn't fit to be dog catcher!!!

Go Obama!!!

Barack the Vote

I hope it would'nt happen, cause if it did Obama would have to defend her on all her lies she would be putting out.

Anyone who votes for Hillary after she has told bold-faced lies in effect is saying lying is ok for our President. Unbelieveable to me. Of all the faults both candidates have, lying to the American public about being under sniper fire is the lowest of lows. How anyone can vote for someone like this is truly unbelievable.

If Hillary is a respect-worthy woman, Bill Clinton wouldn't dare to hurt her.

The sad fact is that Obama wouldn't be able to trust Hillary.

Pelosi idea about to have Obama/Clinton joint ticket to November, 08, election will divide the Democtratic Party.

First, let the Candidate finish their primaries race which is coming close to end soon.

Second, let the choice to select the VP has whoever wins the nomination, who will be probably Mr. Obama.

And finally, let Michigan and Florida States have have delegates seated properly inJune 6, primaries Votes again and the people of the 2 states decide who is the favoured Candidate of the Democratic Party, Who I am sure will be Mr. Obama and will be getting this time from Michigan and Florida the majority primary votes from both states.

I would say it's possible, or as least I wouldn't say impossible. What's the point of saying it? Is she hinting that she can predict future or what?

Anything is possible, especially good things.

In the end, I think it has to happen. The dream ticket of Obama and Clinton.

Clinton and her lack of integrity would be a huge liability if on the ticket.
She might need Obama, but he does not need her.

Of course that won't happen.

What would Hillary bring to Obama's White House besides her war stories?

Why would Obama want Bill and Hillary on his team as VP?
Both will be trouble for him if he gains the White House.
He is better off picking someone else.

hey, Nancy, good going… maybe can we get some Hamas official on the ticket with Obama? or maybe get Jimmy Carter on the ticket with either one of them? is Billy still around? he'd be a good running mate for either one, and would provide geographic, racial and/or gender balance….. rumor has it that Billy Carter was last seen at the filling station last week working on his 2nd 12 back of Bud Lite for the day…

Pelosi is a parasite – she needs to keep her opinions in San Fran.

Pelosi has indeed been in politics a long time and knows a lot. No doubt she knows that the Democratic message since becoming the majority party has been nothing more than a continuing critique of the Bush administration. No doubt she knows that, along with Howard Dean, she has overseen the disenfranchisement of primary voters in two critical states guaranteeing a bitter conclusion to the primary process and very possibly handing still another election to the Republican party.

you got a problem with dog catchers buddy?

barack doesnt need Hillary to win in November. She would only drag the party further in the gutter

Read what Mrs. Obama did in the campaign, will the real racist please stand up!
"While the crowd was indeed diverse, some students at the event questioned the practices of Mrs. Obama's event coordinators, who handpicked the crowd sitting behind Mrs. Obama. The Tartan's correspondents observed one event coordinator say to another, "Get me more white people, we need more white people."
To an Asian girl sitting in the back row, one coordinator said, "We're moving you, sorry. It's going to look so pretty, though."

What's up CNN? My blogs never get posted. I'm sure it's because you Republicans don't like my name.

Get used to it since Lil McBush wants to base his campaign run on Iraq. What a knucklehead Lil McBush is following Dubya's lead.

Obama 08

Fred

Get over yourself…..HRC so untrustworthy you can't believe a word that comes out of her mouth, if she tells you water is wet you better check it out yourself.

Pelosi is right! I do not think Barack Obama will want Hillary as his vice president, especially after she made those remarks about McCain being more fit to be commander in chief than Barack Obama. So all you Clinton supporters, I'm sorry to have to tell this but your Hillary is done, gone from the political scene forever and with her the entire Clinton name. I don't think that the American people will even want to hear about Chelsea Clinton in future.

No way. I'm sure Obama wants someone with better judgment and MUCH less political baggage than Clinton. Alternatively, we all know Clinton would never settle for second fiddle.

Besides, would YOU trust in your own safety if Clinton was your VP? Especially if there were already safety concerns?

Come on now – You know she'd do anything to be Prez, and Obama knows this…….

There is no way these two candidates can be on the same ticket. That would make a three-person ticket when you factor in Bill. One of the problems is that Hillary could trust Barack but I don't think Barack could trust Hillary and/or Bill.

Fred, I am sorry you feel that way about Barack Obama. I think he is a better man than you give him credit for.

(Please Post?)

As if Pelosi hasn't noticed, it appears as if NOBAMA has already appointed himself Commander In Chief.

His arrogance and smug qualities are so transparent; the arrogance is a true component for his true insecurities (lack of experience) and the "smug" qualities, well that's simply "attitude".

I agree with Fred on this one…

Obama supporters will be crying rivers if this guy is elected, the phrase "Oh gee what have we done" will resonate in a matter of months.

Go Hillary!!!!!

I don't trust the Clintons and wouldn't want her on the ticket anyways. Three months ago i felt very different but she has shown me her true colors. If the Democratic party hands the nomination to Hillary then I am left to vote for McCain or somebody else.

even if it happens, I agree on the comment stating that they would not feel comfortable w/ each other. I however hope not to see Obama on the ticket w/ Hillary. I just don't think he's the right choice

Pelosi: a brilliant politician.

A joint ticket would mean double trouble.

No one wants to be on a ticket with Hillary. They will bring back more garbage back to the White house.

Hillary and Bill Clinton was behing the NAFTA flack and everyone knows it.

So when Obama when why should he take on Hillary no need to.

Pelosi is right……… Obama and Hillary have similar policies BUT their personalities are really different……..they can't work together……….
Hillary has been waiting for her chance to be president and I just can't see her taking the VP spot……
Obama has stated time after time "our moment is now", I don't see him coming back to run again…….His wife confirmed that!!………..He also can't be VP look what happened to Al Gore….. Obama will have no influence because he would be overshadowed by Bill……. (Co-presidency). again Obama going for VP would totally undermine his whole message of the past (Clinton, bush etc) or
future(himself

Nancy, you've "been involved in politics for a very long time" and you still aren't successful as Speaker of the House opposing an unpopular president waging an unpopular war.

Do your job and let the two candidates decide what works for them.

I Just have a new plate for my car. I change it to GOOBAMA
I know some police will stop me to give me ticket. But i don't care to pay that ticket for OBAMA

Presuming that Obama is nominated, there is no way he would want Clinton as his running mate. She could not tolerate being in second place and would do all she could, once elected, to undermine him. And then there is the ire of Bill Clinton, who will have been robbed of his seat of power in the White House. Not a pretty scenario.

How can we trust either one (I already don't trust Clinton any further than I can throw a piano) if after all the bickering, they put one one in bed together?

Fred,

If you think you have some disagreement with Obama… wait until the millions and millions and millions of both Democrats and Republicans alike who distrust, disrespect and flat out dislike Hillary and Bill Clinton show you what disagreement is all about, if Hillary finds a way to scratch and claw her way onto the ticket. Hillary Clinton is beyond unelectable. She is the Democratic Party's worst nightmare. Many of the parties top members knew that from "day one."

Does anyone remember "Fatal Attraction?" Down right scary.

I wonder how Ms. Pelosi has hurt me today. It is about time she get to work!

Don;t necessarily want Obama on the ticket – but why is Nancy Pelosi weighing in on this???? Cool it, Nancy!!!

Pelosi knows what she is talking about, we all know by now our democratic nominee is going to be Obama. If he pick Hillary for his V.P then he is violating his principles that he believe in. He should and he will pick a V.P who values his priciples and beliefes. Hillary will go back to her old job as sentor that is if she can win it again which I believe is unlikely.

Fred, it's because of people like you that make the democratic party weaker. 'obama isn't fit to be a dog catcher?' are you serious man? why would you say that about such a brilliant person?

i don't really care if you support clinton or obama, it's a time for unity. the one thing republicans have cleaned our clocks with over the years is to use their party's influence to become unified behind one candidate.

i don't think it's unrealistic to say that if obama and hillary were republicans, the party would have made hillary concede weeks ago. put your best candidate front and center, and get behind them 100%. that's how you win in november.

I wish this lady would just stop talking and get stuff done.

Thank Godd!!! I wouldn't want Clinton on any ticket!!! Clinton isn't fit to be a dog catcher!!!

Go Obama!!!

Fred, Get over it, Obama will WIN and he will not have hillary on his ticket. End of story!

I like you Nancy Pelosi but I think you need to sit back and stay quiet before you make me change my mind.

Pelosi know what she is talking about, we all know by now our democratic nominee is going to be Obama. If he pick Hillary for his V.P then he is violating his principles that he believe in. He should and he will pick a V.P who values his priciples and beliefes. Hillary will go back to her old job as sentor that is if she can win it again which I believe is unlikely.

This is good news again.Hillary just needs to finish out her time in the senate then go home to be a housewife.

No democrat will want Hillary as VP
Go OBAMA

Is it Groundhog Day, again? Why are we still talking about this woman? Will she ever go away? Really.

To answer your question–hell no, we can't stand her, and don't want her on Barack's ticket. She stinks up the place.

I agree–no way. Barack is much to smart to swallow this. He and anyone else that would agree to be Hillary's VP know only too well that they would be 3rd in line. Bill is not going to give up and if he has to come in the back door to accomplish a 3rd term he will.

SHE IS NOT RELEVANT

I would not want Clinton on any ticket.
She tells so many lies, I'm surprised her nose isn't 5 feet long!

Go Obama!

Hey Fred, I'm curious. How in the world is Hillary going to win the nomination? Please explain to me how that would work.

Pelosi is just afraid of losing her position as the most politically powerful woman in the Democratic Party–a joint ticket guarantees that Pelosi will lose that distinction.

Put your ego away Nancy and let a joint ticket unify the party!

Dream Team 08

Dream Ticket 08

VoteBoth 08

In a few weeks the Clintons will find themselves in court and up to their necks in litigation over illegal fundraising. Hillary won't have time to run for the VP spot.

Pelosi is a worhtless human being who needs to DO HER JOB instead of interfering in electoral politics.

I think the democrats shouldn't be devided…but thanks to Ol Bilary a lot of damage has been done to the democratic party. I don't think Clinton will get the nomination (keeping it real) and if she did Obama shouldn't work for her being that she said John McCain is better fit to run the country. If Obama gets the nomination, Hilary hasn't proved to be trustworthy in any form or fashion…to work under Obama. There would be NO trust , Hilary just can't be trusted… PERIOD. She can't even be trusted to tell a basic truth, why would anyone trust her to run a country or even be a VP of any country.

Good! There are many good choices for Obama.

I would be very upset if Obama and Clinton were on the same ticket. I am from Chicago, and an Obama supporter. I would never vote for Mrs Clinton– under any circumstances! If she gets the nomination, I will stay home in November. And if Obama puts her on his ticket, I think he'd loose.

please explain to clinton that being fired up is not being in danger of being fired at, AND "FORGOT THE TRIP"???? if anyone was fired at they would remember. but, never had sex with that girl continues the lies. so who would want clinton in the white house, what would bill be doing again in the white house, who would be watching clinton's "stories"??? no i think obama will pick a senior in the area of overseas. to have the clintons wondering around the white house??? maybe the odd house.

I know who it won't be Mrs Pelosi, all she brings to the ticket is divison

Who cares what Pelosi thinks but I watch all of MSNBC DC report on the WAR and I saw Hiliary hitting first hard asking the important questions and Obama ending it on the same note….. Deomocratics together to get us moved on… It's about time… I was for the WAR and if you are honest after 911 so were most of you…. we made a mistake now let us move on together and clean up this mess

Devil in a blue dress, blue dress, blue dress, devil with the blue dress on…..

No thanks Nancy, we can do without Hillary.

Thank God!!! I wouldn't want Clinton on any ticket!!! Clinton isn't fit to be dog catcher!!! She lies too much.

Go Obama

Mangoose and snakes do not agree so why put them together. Hillary is too slippery to be trusted.

Sorry Clintonistas, I know your candidate has to pay back her donors but it will not be on Obama's watch. Why don't you guys donat 500 million to help her pay her bills.

Obama 08

Right, right . . . That's the ticket.

Haven't said that in about 20 years.

Having Billary as VP would be like having Lorena Bobbitt as a spouse.

How about Pelosi for VP???

Hillary already has her vp, Bill! I feel sorry for anyone who took the job while he is in the wings.

Isn't fit to be a dog catcher? The petty rudeness of Hillary backers truly astounds me. It's shocking. I hope she'd be ashamed of the way some of you speak in her name.

Whether you like him for president or not do you honestly think he's not fit to be a dog catcher? Please… Be realistic.

I think we need a more conservative VP candiate. Clinton and Obama are so similar in their views and VERY liberal. We need someone to pull in the more conservative non McCain backing crowd and the middle of the road independants.

Obama 08

Pelosi is not dividing the Democrats, she is speaking the truth. An Obama/Clinton, Clinton/Obama ticket is a terrible idea, the negatives of both outweighing the positives. Get your head out of the clouds, American politics are from a fairy tale.

No way Jose not even with Obama in the top. Not in a million years.
VIVA OBAMA

Let's see Chelsea's 28..huh..about the same age Monica was when she was "doing" Bill in the white house. Nobody worried about asking her tough questions.

I won't want Billary on any ticket either. Like her husband, Hillary just wants power.

Obama is for an authentic change. Hilary if for change that people want to hear; but heaven knows how she will get that done with her divisiveness.

Go OBAMA

Like Pelosi said before, how can they run together after Hillary already endorsed McCain? Pelosi is one smart person; smarter than Hillary will ever be. Hillary needs to get out of the race, accept defeat gracefully and get on with her life for the benefit of the democratic party, the nation and herself.

Pelosi is very honest. Thanks, Pelosi. I cann't see it either.

Pelosi needs to focus on her day job and stay out of it.

It's none of her business.

Al of a sudden Pelosi wants to be influential? She goes and visits the Dali Lama, holding his hand while telling the American public "Impeachment is off the table". How is George Bush any different than the human rights violaters of the Chinese government? Pelosi has turned out to be just one of the good ole boys of the Washington establishment. Who cares what she has to say. I don't.

Unfortunately Hillary should have ran in 2004. We would never have known she lies. The devil in Hillary came out when she starting losing to Barack. She just couldn't except it. Now we know the real Hillary, and it aint pretty.

Why is this woman allowed to speak. She has done very little with her powers and continue's to divide the issues.

Hillary has way too much bad baggage and would be a target for the Republicans. Ask Vince Foster his opinion on this. There isn't enough room on the same ticket for Obama, Hillary, Chelsea, Bill and the Columbians.

You gotta admire Clinton's PA strategy. She's one briliant lady.

-Some Lewinsky planted questions to Chelsea to get sympathy votes from women and mothers.

-Resurrection of the Wright issue by a backer to get the attention away from the Columbian Trade. Because the NAFTA problem could hurt her PA blue collar vote.

-More 3am ads the scare people of PA

PA is hers. It's a shame she don't use her cleverness to actually help people.

Gravel/Powell 08

Nancy is right. The country will never stand for Hillary on anybody's ticket. She is too divisive and a bit of a spoiled brat, to be honest. She has never had to work hard for anything in her life, and she has made the wrong choices too many times.

Thank her for her service as First Lady, and move on.

Obama 08

Fred must live in a town where his neigbors moved away to avoid contact with him. FRED, you sound like a idiot who hasnt accomplished anything, So, you dont want Barack in the same line of work as you, DOG CATCHER?

People like Fred set society back 30 years. LOL @ grown men cheerleading like little girls

Senator Obama can do much better than Senator Clinton on his ticket– Richardson deserves the nod here.

Why hasn't anyone called for Nancy Pelosi to step down? Congress has the lowest approval rating of any living, breathing thing on the planet, she's seemingly done nothing to disprove these ratings and more directly, Congress at large has seemingly done nothing this term. If this were the private sector, she would have been canned by now…

BTW…GO HILLARY '08!!

Hillary won't be the nominee so a Clinton/Obama ticket is dead in the water. Like so many have said, I would hate to see Bill Clinton in the White House with nothing to do!

Response to fred:

Not fit enough to be a dog catcher, yet he has won the majority of everything there is to win. Let's be honest here, in terms of policy, there are no significant differences between Obama and Clinton. That means it comes down to other factors as likeability etc. I find your remark plain stupid. I pray to god Obama wins the general election against McCain as he's the one person to put America back on track. I don't care how good you think you are, get a reality check, the US is in shambles and dramatic changes are needed. Your comment only further shows how and why we are in the position we are in. Incompetence.

Barack is not a rock star, he is a man. What he needs is someone honorable on his ticket, who doesn't lie. That would be most Americans, unfortunately, Hillary is not one of them.

Give her a helmet (in case of sniper fire) and send her back to Bosnia.

fred April 9th, 2008 12:34 pm ET

Thank God!!! I wouldn't want Obama on any ticket!!! Obama isn't fit to be dog catcher!!!

FRED…I BET HE'S MORE EDUCATED, KNOWLEDGABLE, INTELLIGENT, SUCCESSFUL THAN YOU. SOMETHING TELLS ME THAT IF HE WAS WHITE HE MAY BE FIT RIGHT HATER???

I think Pelosi would make an excellent vice president !
She would not split the party, and would satisfy those in the party who will
vote only because they want to see a woman up there high on the executive side of government.

Pelosi idea about to a joint ticket to November, 08, election will divide the Democtratic Party.

First, let the Candidate finish their primary race which coming close to end soon.

Second, let the choice to select the VP has whoever win the nomination, who is probably Mr. Obama.

And finally, let Michigan and Florida States have June 6, primaries Votes again and decide who is the favoured Candidate of the Democratic Party, Who I am sure will be Mr. Obama and will be getting this time from Michigan and Florida the majority primary votes from bothe states.

Stop hatin because she is telling the truth Hilary has spoiled her chances for Vice President She could have had the second spot but she has run a agressively negative campaign

Pelosi, if you keep this up I will start a petition to remove you from your high-powered position. If either Clinton or Obama does not at least OFFER the position to the other, the Democrats will lose the election. Who cares if both NY and IL will go Dem? We had Edwards last year and that certainly did not help in the Southern states, did it? Did he help bring his home state of North Carolina? NO!

Too right! Hillary is just a dead weight that Obama doesn't need on the ticket in November.

Bill is already the vice president. What's the point of getting someone to just be a spectator? I will strongly recommend against Obama being a VP if he does not get the nomination. God knows Obama will be because he has worked hard and is now leading. God bless the youth for their insight in putting Obama up there. YOU ROCK BOYS and GALS.

Good OBAMA wouldn't want Hillary on his ticket because Hillary is very wicked person. She might do a kichen dirty to OBAMA. OBAMA should be the one to chose his vice presidential.
Hillary should drop out of the race now!!
OBAMA 08!!
God bless OBAMA. We need change in the whitehouse. We are tired of BUSH CLITON

I agree!

OBAMA '08!

Hillary can kiss the white house goodbye!

The only ticket she needs is one back to New York. She's a loser and a selfish-self-centered liar. She stole the WH china, and now she's trying to steal this election from Barack.

It won't work. Keep her away from Barack, she has lice.

Obamba 08

I wish Pelosi would just go ahead and admit she wants to be Obama's VP.

Pelosi is right, we won't stand for Billary in our government, she is a liar and doesn't deserve to even be considered. Billary and the Clintonistas won't be part of our government, because they are as bad as George Bush and Karl Marx Rove. Traders should be charged with treason and publicly hanged.

I think Clinton Obama or Obama Clinton would be a shoe in
for the Democrats.

If Palosi would get her head out the sand, she has done NOTHING
so far for the american people . When she does an interview all
she does is stammer and stutter. I hope the next President
replaces her FAST.

Kind of harsh fred!

Operation Chaos is alive and well!

Hillary doesn't have time to be on anyone's ticket since she's got Free Trade under the table agreements that she has Bill covering for and Mark Penn insituting on her behalf.

Dog catcher…what a shame, Fred. You know, hate will kill you. It causes dis-ease….disease. I wish you well.

I would not want Obama next to that woman and her surrogates. I would not feel comfortable either just like Pelosi is not.

H- Hateful
I- Insensitive
L-Liar
L- Loser
A- Angry
R- Republican
Y- Yesterday's News

pelosi – please keep quiet because as much as we the democrats want to win a joint ticket is the only choice!

Sounds good to me — keeps the Clinton sleaze from going back out of the White House (or blue dress)

Thank goodness someone out there is ready to talk sense. This is just more of the Clinton campaign grasping at straws trying to push this idea to try to get votes from people who want "2 for 1″. Is it a surprise to anyone that someone close to the Clintons started up a website suggesting it? Thank you Nancy Pelosi for being willing to stand up and put an end to this nonsense!

i hope hiliary dopesnt pick that loser obama when she runs against john mccain in november. obama at this point is unelectable. come april 23, the usa will be rid of obama for good.

Why does she have to repeat herself over and over again? Which reporters are wasting her and our time? Let's get her opinion on something new… that's why it's called "News'!

Is this Pelosi going for media exposure? if she isn't helping the situation, she shouldn't be going for cheap headlines.

I wish it would have happened, and in a way I still do… but to much water under the bridge now. Both would have meant absolute defeat for McSame in the fall.

Yes we can!

Fred, why don't you step aside and leave the commenting to true Democrats who realize both candidates are strong.

Pelosi is right. By the time Obama completes his second term, Hillary will be 69 years old. Obama should choose a much younger vice president.

no hillary go back to the senate if you can last the next election for your seat.

Pelosi needs to just stay out of this. How many times do we need to hear her say this? She needs to start doing her own job and stop trying to divide the party.

If a joint ticket happens, that would be great for the party.

I think she only says these things because she has her own ambitions in mind.

The reason Hillary can't settle on a hometown is because nobody wants her. I think she's from PLUTO, which stands for Please Leave Us To Ourselves.

Nobody likes Hillary except the desperate, people who need a phony savior.

She's not a fighter, she's a failure because she puts herself above the American people.

What does Pelosi get out of having herself televised and continually repeating that the candidates won't be on the same ticket??? What message is she trying to send…..and to whom??

She does nothing but divide this party more than it already is.

She , Polosi , is good for house wife.
Enjoy your "power" now, bicause is for first and last , Jelouse Lady!

GO HILLARY!!!

Pelosi —PLEASE ENOUGH! JUST STOP. STOP! I DON'T SEE THE DEMOCRATS WINNING IN NOVEMBER IS WHAT SHE SHOULD OF JUST SAID. DOESN'T SHE REALIZE THE DAMAGE SHE IS DOING TO GET THE SUPPORTERS OF BOTH CANDIDATE TO HATE EACH OTHER EVEN MORE? WHAT THE HELL IS HER PROBLEM.
YOU KNOW WHAT PELOSI—I DON'T SEE YOU WINNING RE-ELECTION IN CALIF. HOW ABOUT THAT! YOU ARE REALLY UPSETTING A LOT OF DEMOCRATS IN YOUR OWN PARTY! KEEP THIS UP AND I DON'T SEE THE DEMOCRATS WINNING AT ALL! PERIOD!

Bad news for Fred and his fellow Clintonistas. Apparantly they still can't do math.

Everyone knows it's over except the Clintonistas. It's the blind leading the blind with Camp clinton.

Obama 08

Pelosi is right. Hillary shouldn't be forced on Obama and vice versa. What's wrong with people who simply refuse to accept the rules of engagement. Hasn't anyone ever watched big brother and see what happens when people who are not alike share the same space. Hillary and Bill may be able to live in the same house, so don't try to force the same on Obama.

Given Hillary's disparagement of Obama and his readiness, it would be hard for him to accept her on the ticket. Besides, that would also bring Bill back into the whitehouse, along with the possibility of more scandal. It would also be difficult for Obama to watch his back against both of them. He also needs to pick somebody who will be able to run in 8 years, Hillary will be 69 and will face the same issues as McCain re age, plus all her other negatives. Had Hillary not resorted to "dirty" politics, and only stuck to differences on the issues, she might not have taken herself out of the picture entirely.

I have a faith in Hillary. I am certain she will be the Democratic nominee and bit McCain in November. I just cannot see this ticket happens. After Obama's pastor comments and Obama's wife comments I became to this conclusion: Obama himself is a TERRORRIST.

That would be a combination and comfort level that only the two candidates would know themselves. Nancy Pelosi should stay out of it. I sometimes get the feeling she is anti-Hillary. Maybe she is jealous of Hillary. She has not been successful at her new post, while Hillary has done extremely well even among the other dem male candidates.

Hillary is the most qualified. Not just words……..but substance.
Now the Obamas are spending a lot of peoples' hard earned cash trying to BUY Pa voters.

GO WITH YOUR ORIGINAL GUT FEELINGS…….GO HILLARY!

Nancy Pelosi and her friends DO NOT want a democratic president! Why is she so scared of winning??

Hillary sucks, there is no politically correct way of saying that. She has been against the military and the military vet since her days in the white house and this democratic vet would NEVER vote for her if she was anywhere on the ticket. Obama is hope, Clinton (either one) is hopeless.

Who elected Pelosi to be Queen, anyway?

It is time for the party to come together. Both of these candidates are great. I think Obama has ran a very good campaign. He is indeed a once in a life time leader.

Obama would be out of his mind to consider Hillary as his vice-president and that he is not. Just the opposite. Geez, who would like to get mixed up with the Clintons anyway?

I don't know what this is even still an issue.

The fact of the matter is if Sen. Clinton gets the nominee, she NEEDS Sen. Obama in order to get the African American votes and the votes of the younger college population.

If Sen. Obama wins, he DOE NOT need Sen. Clinton to win the Presidential election because he can CHOOSE whoever he wants, who could be someone who could very well BRING MORE to the table than Sen. Clinton.

There ARE better candidates for VP than Sen. Clinton. So it's not a must for Sen. Obama to select her at all.

Not being able to make comment on Lanny Davis' questions about Obama and the Rev Wright because the "add comments" was again closed quickly, I have to say that I agree with Mr. Davis. Obama to this point still has not given a satisfactory answer as to why he continued to be a member of the church and why he rewarded Rev Wright with a position in his campaign. I am convinced that Obama does not think the way Rev wright thinks but why ddi he support him and not quit.

This is the essence of why I cannot vote for this man (Obama)!!!!!!

It completely baffles me as to why his supporters don't get it!!! This is a very serious and imprtant issue of Obama's Credibility and JUDGEMENT!!! Why do his supporters think that this issue (Rev Wright) is not important are they blind??

Pelosi – why don't you just be quiet. You are really an annoying person. I a democrate, but you have absolutely NO INFLUENCE IN THIS RACE – so please let go of your 5 minutes of fame ok!!!

She sides with John McCain and wonders why we just don't like her. She's a moron and our team can't use her, like she's trying to use the American people. Pawn her off on the GOP, they work well with vipors.

Indeed, Obama won't need Clinton as VP.Pelosi couln't be more right about this!

Yes, there is no way Obama would have Clinton as VICE Prez. He wants to win in November.

No more Clintons!

Obama

Speaker Pelosi just wants more attention, she needs to shut her mouth. If she cared about her party she would be doing everything to get her party in the white house, not splitting her party!!

fred, what is wrong with you? people like you on both sides of the political spectrum are what is wrong with this country. i'm guessing you're a conservative blogger intentionally posing as a hillary supporter to stir up some controversy in this race. well STOP. vote with your heart and see what happens this summer. if your candidate doesnt win move on and vote for the other. barack and hillary have almost identical positions as far as actaul issues go. democrats, STOP FIGHTING AND START UNITING!

DEMOCRAT 08!

Pelosi- BUTT OUT. Who are you to say anything about this?!

You are DIVISIVE and destructive and I question your motives (trying for VP to your saint Obama?)

I no longer support you.

Wait a minute… I just figured this out… Pelosi is hinting that she wants Obama to select her for his running mate. Why did I not pick-up on this earlier?

No thanks Nancy, we can do without Hillary. Maybe you can ship her to China and she can help the government stop the Tibetan protest.

In case the monks are shooting, she's a great warrior and will duck any incoming sniper fire.

What does Pelosi have anything to do with the ticket? Well, unless she wants to be part of it.

And CNN, this is an old news, please talk about something else, and please report ALL news, and report them accurately.

Hillary Clinton is leading in PA by 18 points. Obama is leading in NC by 10 points.

Hillary says she's against CAFTA and Bill Clinton is for CAFTA……why should we have this DRAMA in the white house.

Obama 08….HE's against CAFTA…that's all you need to know…there's no conflict there.

PA you should really do your homework on this one.

Yeah Pelosi keep your big Honker out of it – you're the one splitting everyone up. I hope you're gone when we get a new pres. Go Hillary and NoBama!!

Watch "Hillary The Movie" on You Tube!!!

For both supporters and non-supporters. You may be surprised. Theres no surprise why the Clintons have blocked release of this movie.

Bill was the first president to be impeached. Hill was the first, 1st lady to be involved in a criminal investigation.
Lets give them another shot??

Fred,

It's Clinton supporters like you who make it nearly impossible for the voters to unite over the important issues.

CNN…it has been WEEKS since anything I've posted has shown up on a blog. I adhere to the posting rules and yet if I post something that's not PRO-Hilllary…it never shows up!!! You've created an extremely slanted point of view by doing this.

In any case, here is my post (ONCE AGAIN) on this topic: having Hillary as VP on a ticket headed by Senator Obama would be likened to handing over the Presdency to McCain on a silver platter!!!

Now, CNN…was that so hard to swallow???

I don't understand why Pelosi is so hellbent against this ticket. I think it would heal the Democratic party. I'm supporting Hillary Clinton for President, but if Barack does get the nomination I would be much more comfortable with Hillary as his VP. It also isn't Pelosi's place to be making such a strong stance on this, it isn't her business right now. She's normally so focused on opinion polls and being politically correct, she just needs to sit back and be quiet. Personally, she's been such a disappointment to me. I was so excited when she became Speaker but she's just kind of blah these days.

No way Obama will have Hillary on his ticket. Why will he want a Bush as a VP? Hillary is the worst person that i know of. Wolf in sheep clothing and Hillary supporters are so naive to believe every word she says.

Hillary should just quit before she losses her respect.Opps..too late.

The fact is. Obama is already winning the nomination. Why should he care about having Hillary on his ticket? Besides, I am sure a lot of Hillary supporters will say , "I am voting for McCain". Fact of the matter is, that will amount to only about 5 % of hillary supporters and Obama will be getting a far larger percentage from the Republicans. So it does not matter if "a small number of hardcore" hillary supporters were to stupidly vote for McCain. I say, go and be ashamed of yourself at the end of the day.

Hillary/Chelsea 2016 – (hahaha..i had to laugh at that)

Goodness fred, you'd think he burned your house down. Don't you think you're taking this a wee bit personally?

Obama as dogcatcher? How about Hillary as town liar oops I mean crier. Obviosly these 2 hate each other.

Pelosi just needs to keep her mouth shut and stop making comments. I still would like to know who she is voting for as a super delegate. If she follows the will of the people from her state it must be Clinton, but I think she is a closet Obama supporter from most of her comments.

I would not want a back stabbing, lying and stealing HC on my ticket either!!!!!!

OBAMA 08

Pelosi- you need to BUTT OUT. WHY do you KEEP BRINGING THIS UP?! How does this help anything? What is your purpose? I can tell you now- If Obama wins and YOU are the VP- I will have a hard time voting for that ticket. Seriously.

I think you, Pelosi, are DIVISIVE and destructive and I no longer support you.

I Fully agree with Pelosi. Hillary is a very smart woman and knows what she is doing.

Hillary my next president. GO HILLARY!

FRED – "Thank God!!! I wouldn't want Obama on any ticket!!! Obama isn't fit to be dog catcher!!!" —- Seriously???? You REALLY trust the Clintons (and believe me, if you get Hillary you are SURE to get Bill too!!! – and Chelsea, I guess) to change the problems our country is facing without selling us out? Obama or not, the Clintons need to fade away!

Duh!

No way Hillary take Obama as a VP, he is to damaged and would hurt her in middle america. This black liberation theology from his chuch is a bomb waiting to go off, not sure at this moment who I would want to see,,,think maybe a southern or far west , have to see how it plays out over the summer.

If Clinton had bowed out of this race when she had lost 10 states in a row and it was clear she would NOT catch up to Obama, She would have been a shoo-in for VP. Now Obama would be a fool to pick her. She and her husband have bitterly divided the party by injecting race and she even has implied that John McCain is more ready to be President than Obama. She cannot be on Obama's ticket. If she is, I will not vote.

It would be interesting to know the age of some of the posters on here based on their intelligent remarks.

Pelosi is right. Also its not wise to consolidate all the power the democrats hold. Whomever loses will rise to a top leadership position and a strong voice in the senate. If they are forced to to pair up, dems will lose some strength in the senate.

Plus both candidates are strong enough to win alone, and their VP choices will be elevated to the spotlight, thus creating another star democrat.

Its much better for the party for them to go their separate ways when this ends, just the loser should campaign hard for the winner until November to help smooth over the rough edges.

for those hillary backers stop been stupid there is no way she going to beat Mr. Obama so stop been stubborn.

Fred,
I wouldn't want Billary on Obama’s ticket, too much baggage… She isn't fit for dog catcher, pig farmer or cow milking. But she does make a good Pinocchio though!
Everyone keeps bringing up Rev. Wright a man that is older than Obama so why does he have to answer for what someone else has said? But nobody will make Billary answer for her many lies…
Your choice against the republicans…. possible Rev. Wright problems and a try to tie into Rezco canidate (Obama) or a problem with Bosnia lie, problem with Nafta lie, problem with Kosavo lie, problem with adviser lie, problem with claim of lady with no health care lie and the many, many other scandals that the republicans along with Karl Rove will bring up! And don’t try to say that Obama stayed with the church is a problem then the issue should also be; why did Hillary stay with Bill when 99% of the women would have left their man after going through that many relationships with other women?

Yes Fred, Go Hillary! The only going she has is back to New York. And by the way Fred, Hillary would want Obama on her ticket but Obama wouldn't. He doesn't need her.

Obama '08!

After all the damage the clinton campaign are doing to the democratic party right now, I don't think Obama would want her as his V.P

Go Obama 08

If she is on the Top, then that's fine to me. Otherwise, McCain will be the one I am going to vote for!!!!!!!!!

of course that would be ridiculous!

the two are incompatible

That comment from Fred is contradictory to language we heard from philandering Bill who said Barack would be a fine running mate with his pudgey wife .

I can't wait to read a psychological dissertation on the profile of Hillary supporters.

Clinton will be a spoiler on Obama's ticket!
Vote for change 08′, vote for Obama!

Why would Obama choose a running mate that is helping John McCain?

Hillary has a about a 1% chance of winning the nomination. And her chances of winning the general election would be .0001% after a controversial convention. If she cares so much about ending the war, the economy, etc., why not get behind Obama, who still has a chance to beat McCain?

Go Hillary!

I agree it won't happen. If Obama wins, Hillary would not take a second seat. She is trashing him so bad, why would he run with her. Nothing like pulling the dems together Hillary.

Nancy is one smart lady.

Obama/Richardson

Clinton/Biden

McCain/doesnt matter

Pelosi is right. There is no way Dems will stand for Hillary to be on anybody's ticket, much less Barack's, after her disgusting performance of a human being.

DNC really messed this one up.

Obama 08

Basically, if Hillary somehow wins, Obama wouldn't want to be VP in name only behind Bill, and if Obama wins, he wouldn't want to have to deal with all of Hillary's negatives.

Makes sense to me.

You're very mature Fred….

The truth of the matter is that the only way Hillary is going to get the nomination is if she steals it, and that will cause an uproar. Bottom line, she's never going to get it, but if she does, she will need him on her ticket.

Obama is not going to put her on his ticket, because he wants change in Washington, and Hillary is not that change. Nope, he won't ask Hillary.

And that's the truth Fred! Can you handle that?

Everyone knows it won't happen, why keep asking about it? Obama has the nomination locked up, it's just a matter of time until all the primaries are complete. Even if Florida and Michigan were counted as is Clinton can't win (which they shouldn't be, rules are rules). So how would Obama benefit having someone on the ticket that is exactly what he has campaigned to change? Let it die people…

fred,
I was very upset when Bush jr stold an election and strong armed his way into office. I don't understand why you think it is ok for Hillary. She lost my support because of her Bush like tactics.
I am the white, 40 something educated female she used to carry.

This pelosi creature is trying everything she can to help Republican, what a crazy woman!

Why would a viable candidate want a VP who isn’t?

I'm praying for the Obomanations to go away-I'm really tired of their "Hate" messages everywhere!

I disagree w/ ol' Nance… she said she'd have the troops out too

I think a Clinton-Obama ticket will draw the entire Dem base and enough Independents (maybe not as much as McCain, but enough Independents) to win the election (the conservative base of the Republican party will not show up to vote McCain)

President Obama would be having to babysit Ms. Clinton on every issue.

She wouldn't be someone that could "share" the limelight.

Besides, I think the majority of Americans would sleep much better knowing she wasn't even anywhere near the white house.

OBAMA/PELOSI 08!

Fred, you wouldnt want Obama on HRCs ticket? Thats the only way she will win. Come on buddy. Get your head out the sand and come back to earth. You know how unlikeable Hillary is? She can't win an uno game much less the presidency. Stop being angry with yourself and embrace Obama.

That is great news! Clinton's floundering campaign would surely bring its baggage to an Obama/Clinton ticket. Anybody but Clinton!

Obama 08!

Fred:

Figuratively speaking of course, he obviously is not only more fit to be dog catcher than you know who, but he has caught more dogs. He's even excelled at it and bagged the biggest dog of them all – The Hilldog! (The other thing is he's less likely to eat puppies, and then try to defend it, distract from it or misspeak about it in order to get elected than lie-a-day Hillary).

Before some of you real Democrats start blogging remember there is a lot of Republicans pretending to be Democrats writting bad things about Obama and Hillary. Forget about it Republicans your day is coming very soon!!

I don't think that Hillary has the ethics that Senator Obama is looking for in his vice president. The lack of financial transparency out of Bill and Hillary is of grave concern.

The only way that Hillary would be offered a spot on Obama's ticket is if she, Bill, and Mark Penn said that they are sorry for all the negative things they have said about Obama. They could admitt that they would do and say anything to win. But then, they would be unelectable. They have set this up for themselves, now they have to live with it.

Good, thanks for the update.

I am hoping people who enjoy writing negative comments for either candidate are also researching both Hillary & Barack. John McCain will try in the end to use scare tactics & his past military history to win this election. All of us will have to join in together to keep the party strong & not divide it. By the way I am a registered Independent but will be voting Democratic hoping to ensure we do not stay in Iraq another 4 plus years.

Pelosi also seemed to suggest the two current Democratic presidential contenders wouldn't feel comfortable together on the same ticket.

They wouldn't! At this point, I don't think they even feel comfortable in the same room. But I don't know why people are still beating this drum. Don't people understand that a VP has to believe in the Pres, and the Pres has to believe in the VP? Clinton has already made it clear that she thinks Obama is less qualified than McCain to be commander in chief. That makes a joint ticket (however you define it) one without any credibility.

What I find particularly amusing is the Karma of the situation. 2 months ago, the idea of Hillary being Obama's VP would have been AMAZING! (I would have LOVED it). But she has gone so uber-negative as of late that she's made that impossible. I realize that she wanted to make history as the first female Pres (and I'm still eager for that day to arrive, because "Madame President" sounds very cool! ) but she still could have made history as the first female VP. Her own nasty behavior, however, has eliminated that possibility. She has no one to blame but herself.

Nancy, the question I would like to see you answer is,

"Would you back a dream ticket between the two candidates?"

Now maybe you're talking this way because you don't personally want to see them run together. And being a politician, you know that weak minds are easiy swayed. Maybe you are trying to infuence readers of these columns, I don't know.

Please stop.

The reasons many Obama supporters have decided to support Obama, is to avoid the "Hillaryesque" type of candidate.

If Obama picked up Clinton as his VP, I would question my vote for Obama in the GE. The main reason to pick up a VP is to gain traction in areas they are having difficulties. Hillary would not do that for Obama. She would only hurt him.

If a Clinton/Obama ticket was forced down our throats, there is no way I would vote for Clinton as Prez, and many Obama supporters agree.

That card would ensure John McCain's success.

The only people that would want such a card are the Hillary supporters who know they are about to lose anyway.

Does she realize that comment like this are divisive and hurtful to whoever becomes the nominee? What agenda does she have? This woman is destructive to her party every time she opens her mouth.

We are beyond the question of a joint ticket.

Obama '08

Clinton could never fit her over-inflated ego into the VP slot. Glad to hear she won't be there. She needs a break after all of this anyway and learn how to run a large administration. Hers is clearly in trouble.

Obamas' picture appears to be his stump speech, "I did not vote for the WAR."

Hey how about a Hillary and Monica ticket, probably make bill happy

Hillary can't manage a primary campaign. She's 8.7 million in debt to small business owners and schools who held rallies for her. She's can't effectively manage her campaign staff. She has no consistent message. She makes nearly daily "misstatements". Her campaign was centered around 35 years of experience, most of which has been debunked.

Obama doesn't need to carry the Clintons to the presidency – he's doing fine without them.

Obama 08!! =-)

Their is a lot of bitterness that I see dividing the Democratic Party. I don't think Mrs Clinton being added to the ticket would help Obama win in november but I do think it would benefit her to but Obama on the ticket. Either way the bitterness needs to stop. Mrs Clinton supporters are getting rabid and many Obama supporters aren't any better. They are both good candidates and deserve a fair shot. I am all for Mrs Clinton staying in the race as long as she feels she should so long as she remains focused on the Democrats beating McCain in the fall and not on tearing down Obama.

yes… yessss… please find something else to complain about.

There is no way that Obama would pick her as veep. Not after she said he wasn't ready to be president, and especially not because she represents the definition of the old-style do-anything-to-win politics that he is attempting to move beyond.

The closest she will get to the White House is her Senate seat.

Pelosi: pick me, pick me

I didnt realize she was the voice of ALL Americans?? When did that election happen????

She is horrible at her job…………

I used to hope for this….but, like Ms. Pelosi, I do not see it happening at this point.

This woman doesn't know squat. Do your job Nancy and impeach the Bush admin., all of them!!!!!!!!!!!

CLINTON/EDWARDS…now that's MY idea of a dream team!

Good Obama dosen't need the Clinton drama and Lies.

I find it ironic that the Clinton camp needs to bring up Wright after ahorrible week for them. What are they trying to distract the voters? They find themselves in a hole and out comes the trash.

The more I hear from the Clintons I do not want them in the White House.

PA: Vote against Clinton, Please.

I'm so happy she feels that way. So do I.

No way Obama in either position.

Hillary or McCain

Fred, you most be on a fantasy land. Your land has lost the game

Pelosi wants to save the VP spot for herself.

Thank god, I wouldn't want Sen, Clinton on any ticket… She misspeaks as a rule and not an exception

AND WHILE MANY DEMOCRATS AND EVEN PEOPLE OUTSIDE THE PARTY ARE NOW TALKING ABOUT A CLINTON-OBAMA OR
OBAMA-CLINTON TICKET WHICH IS POSSIBLY THE STRONGEST PAIR THE DEMOCRATS COULD HAVE FOR THE GENERAL ELECTION, A PELOSI TRIES TO DIVIDE THE PARTY WITH HER
NONSENSE STATEMENTS. IT IS NO WONDER AMERICANS ARE DISIPLEASED WITH CONGRESS. THE DEMOCRATIC MAJORITY
HAS NOT HAD MUCH SUCCESS UNDER A NON-LEADER PELOSI
WHO IS SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE!!!!!THINK ABOUT IT. WHAT HAS PELOSI LEAD THE DEMOCRATIC MAJORITY IN CONGRESS?

no it will not happen how can it Hillary Clinton stands against all that Obama is for. he is trying to bring people together and she has no intention of doing that only spreading more lies to divide this country even further apart so sad that she still thinks she has a shot much less that there are people out there whom would like to have a untrustworthy person who has been shown to lie when the truth would do her much better.

Go Obama 08

Obama should not coinsider a VP that has credibility issues.

With Billary in the middle of a joint ticket, the VP would be delegated to the janitor in the white house, which incidentally, is where Hillary ought to be.

Please Hillary !!! Go Away!!!!

OH NO!!! Here come the Clinton bots with their " Obama should be VP even though Hillary is going down the drain in a hail of self destruction" chants.

Remember people Obama is EDUCATED and no FOOL just like his supporters so dream on!

Pelosi needs to stop sticking her face in the spotlight and do her job.
Who cares what she says.

We have nobody to blame but Hillary Clinton with her negative campaign. With her attitude, it's a shame to be a democrat these days. She's helping the republican party by destroying the democratic party.

guess she thinks she'll be the one. Guess again lady, enjoy your ride, you may not get re-elected after all your fiascos. interfering in the nomination process. Being partial. Not starting the process for impeachment of Bush. etc. Not getting anything accompolished for the democrats after all this time.

Ms Pelosi, Please shut up and go do some actual work for the people of the United States.

I know you'd really love to be a guiding force in the election cycle, but it doesn't seem to be going your way. You're getting cute in that Bill Richardson kind of way that makes me so sick to my stomach.

Nanc – Offical Old Broad for Hillary.

No kiddin' Nancy. Boy, you're a sharp one.

I agree with Pelosi. Who wants a liar as Vice President? Hillary can't seem to tell the truth to save her life or run a decent upright campaign. Please, Obama can do bad by himself. He definitely don’t need the Clintons to corrupt his Presidency.

When will Pelosi be quiet? Let this campaign and the primary season go forward. No one knows who will be on the ticket. If CLinton is a close second, Obama would be foolish not to offer it to Clinton and vice versa. But the Democrats are always stupid and manage to alienate a large number of its membership. Democrats need to be united against ttheRepublicans because if you thought the primnary camapaign is nasty..just wait for the general election. I hope the Democrats do not blow their chance to regain the White House.

We should reshuffle the deck–neither one of these cards should be on the ticket!

Right ! Absolutely right ! What a nonsense to suggest a joined ticket.

You cannot have the power hungry, double faced Clintons in the WHite House … and who would want to be in the White House with them ? Who would be the VP ? Bill or Hillary ?

Pelosi is the one spliting the party.

re: fred April 9th, 2008 12:34 pm ET
Thank God!!! I wouldn't want Obama on any ticket!!! Obama isn't fit to be dog catcher!!!

Yeah, not fit to be dog catcher, just editor of the Harvard Law Review and a professor of Constitutional Law.

I believe Chelsea should answer the question not dismiss it. Her answering the question would certainly help other women who have and/or will experience similar situations. Chelsea could answer the question from her perspective and how or what her mother did to overcome the ordeal.

Noboby will put a lying Billary on any ticket—that will be a failure……..

Seems to me that Pelosi is aiming for that spot on the Obama ticket..

I agree. Both are dominating figures and cant imagine either willing to be co-pilot. Obama cant afford to have her on his ticket and still extoll the virtues of change; she wont win the nomination. Come on PA!! The Democratic Party needs your consolidated voice!

Stop asking her the same freaking question. She said it many times already. And stop posting it on here that he has yet to change her mind.

Anyone with half a brain knows that these too can not be on the same ticket. Hillary has just been EVIL

pelosi

go away…you sound like bush when gore wanted all votes counted

let the voters and democracy decide

She is ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!!

If ANYBODY is truely honest with themselves you cannot deny this. How can you expect ANYONE to want Hillary? Not to Bash but Seriously!! After all of her antics ( I am trying to be nice here) how could you expect ANYTHING to be done with her around. She is out of touch AND control. I am still wondering how she plans to keep her Husband in check. He is pushing MAJOR programs that SHE says she is AGAINST!! IF and I say IF we are to believe this how is she going to keep Bill from useing the Whitehouse to push his own private agenda designed to make them Richer?? Did we all not learn from BUSH and his OIL and Big Pharma Buddies??

Would ANY of you actually invite a person into your HOME who has slandered and lied about you and attacked your character as she has attacked Obamas?? Let me help you NO!! You would be waiting on the porch with a shotgun.

So WHY shoud Obama ask her to be the number 2. It is like asking a enemy to watch your back and being STUPID enough to trust them to do just that.

That is how bad I feel about Hillary and the Clintons after so many years of supporting them. She would only want the VP spot to undermine Obama and then run against him in 4 years.

I agree with you Ms. Pelosi it will not make a good ticket and I tell you why. Hillary has alienated the demarcate base with bring race into the campaign, I just wish that she would have ran a clean campaign and it would have been the best ticket on the planet.

Hillary have flip flop so many times and have told so many lies that I think voters have really caught on to you for who you really are. How many times has she changed her campaign slogan, website, and everything else?

I will be so glad when this is all over and Barack receives the nominee for the democrats so that we can move on and take on McCain.

Obama 08!!!

Pelosi… no one cares what you have to say.
You are clearly in the Obama pocket.

How much $$ has he tossed your way via PAC's?

Hillary's ego won't let her take second place where she belongs. She has too much baggage please, please drop out and go away!

Thank God!!! Hillary isn't fit to be a gutter cleaner. In fact, her campaign is operating out of the gutter.

Despite all of the blathering about "dream ticket," this pairing was never a good idea. Neither of these candidates have credible experience in foreign policy or the military. Pairing them up does not fill that void. When Obama is finally officially granted the nomination he has already so clearly earned and won, he will need to pick someone with some serious foreign policy bona fides (Richardon, Biden, or someone I've never heard of).

ALL HAIL QUEEN HILL-LIE-ARY, BOW DOWN TO YOUR QUEEN AMERICA. KISS HER RING FOR MERCEY OR YOU ARE FINISHED

ALL HAIL THE QUEEN

Pelosi has consistently shown remarkable wisdom inspite of whatever her detractors may say. If anybody in America can picture Hillary as VeePee then they must be residents of wonderland. The Obama/Clinton ticket is only one of Bills attempts to undermine Obama's qualification and to think anybody bought is only a confirmation that some people still believe the Clintons. Well, Barack deserves the right to select who he can work with. The talk of a dream ticket thankfully will be what it is: A DREAM. Wake up people.

I think Pelosi is gunning to be Obama's VP. She really should stay out of this, but I don't think she can help herself. She wants to be the #1 Woman in the U.S. government.

Pelosi has no clue. She even support the slave master Dalai to rebuild the slavery in Tibert. Polititian has no idea what she support.

Sorry, but two "wrongs" don't make a "right."

I tend to agree. It just would not work with Bill Clinton in the middle negotiating free trade agreements.

good ……………………She can pick someone more qualified

Hillary 08

I am a supporter of both Hillary and Barak. I for one would love a dream ticket!

Obama needs to explain his relationship with William Ayers. How do you maintain a friendship with a domestic terriost that attempted to bomb the Pentagon and still run for President? Obama needs to be disqualified. And why does the media ignore this story? The only one who will report on it is Fox News.

Considering the completely different philosophies on the ways to deal with their political environment, I cannot see any way Clinton and Obama could be on the same ticket. In any case, with Bill in the picture, and his inability to stop meddling (he doesn't seem to realize he's not running for president) any ticket with Hillary on it is going to be challenging, not only to Hillary (how do you tell your husband, politely, to shut up?) but also to her VP. I don't think Obama would care to be in the middle of that. In the case where Obama led the ticket with Hillary as VP, the Bill factor is still there, and Hillary is such a strong woman I do not believe she'd be able to be a good, mindful and respectful VP.

Additionally, there's been so much venom between these two and their supporters, I cannot imagine them being able to put differences behind them and work together.

You have that right! Having Hillary on the ticket as VP will cost the Democrats big time votes. The fall out will impact on Democratic races for the House, Senate, Governorships on down. In fact, having Hillary on the ticket as Prez will doom the entire party and Republicans know it. That is why they are wanting to be so helpful ensuring her nomination and Limbaugh's call to Republicans to cross over as they did in Ohio and Texas.

Uncommitted Democratic super delegates need to come on out for Obama now.

He'd be a fool to run anything, but away from this PERSON?….

I completely agree with Nacy Pelosi, BUT I still cannot stand this woman. SHe is a horrible politician, and a horrible person

then put pelosi in the joint ticket that's what she wants

I'm amazed that people still think a joint-ticket is possible. What fantasy land are they living in? No matter how "good" you think such a thing might be, it is not going to happen, simply because of the under-lying hostility it would create. With fanatical supporters on BOTH sides, it's probably an extremely dangerous security scenario, too.

will…not…happen

WHEN DID NANCY PELOSI BECOME A GURU , A PROPHET , A SAGE AND PREDICTING THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET?
ON THE CONTRARY, THE NOMINEE WILL NOT CHOOSE THE RUNNING MATE THAT HE OT SHE FEELS "COMFORTABLE WITH"
THE NOMINEE WILL NOT CHOOSE A RUNNING MATE SHE/HE DOES NOT LIKE (PERSONALLY OR OTHERWISE.) THE CHOICE REALLY BOILS DOWN TO REALITY: THE VP WHOULD BE ONE TO COMPLEMENT AND GIVE STRENGHT TO THE TICKET. AFTER THE ELECTION, THE VP POST IS LARGELY AT THE BEHEST OF THE PRESIDENT WHOEVER THAT MAY BE.
PELOSI SHOULD STICK WITH IRONING HER PANTS AND STOP PROGNOSTICATING.. I WOULD LISTEN TO SENATOR H. REID ON THE SUBJECT RATHER THAN PELOSI.

OBAMA/PELOSI TICKET YEAH

I am a Obama supporter. I, for one, will not vote for Obama/Clinton or Clinton/Obama ticket. My vote will be for Nader if that happens. Let Obama pick someone other than Clinton. Why do you want to contaminate the clean water with mud.

Whenever the Lanny Davis guy, one of the very few staunch supporters of Hillary, opens any orifice in his body, he always attacks Obama and gloats about Hillary's alleged experience.

Nancy shoudl shut her stupid trap and stay out of it!

So House Speaker Nancy Pelosi believes that Obama/Cliton aren't going to be on the ticket together. This will be the only thing that she has ever got right. She may have been in politics for a very long time but is she still just a left wing nut.

Let's get real here. We will never see that happen because if Obama did offer her the vice presidency she would decline. She is to Arrogant and egotistical to accept being number 2. THAT'S ONLY FOR THE BEDROOM.

Open your eyes Pelosi (new Obama girl)! The best way to unite the party would be to have both of them on the same ticket as the popular vote is nearly split in half. Polls indicate that voters who chose the candidate that loses the nomination, will not support the nominee. This is more so for the Hillary backers who will vote for McCain, including me, if Obama gets the nomination.

Pelosi should step down!

A party leader's job is to make impossible possible but not to divide the party. She ought to be held accountable if the Democretic Party loses in the general election.

Suggestion for Mrs. Pelosi:

Mind your own business!

Geeze, who would possibly thing Obama would consent to letting Hillary be his VP? He'd be afraid she'd do him in to get in the big chair.

Barack is too charismatic to play second fiddle…and Hillary feels too entitled to this presidency to be VP. There won't be any ballot combination that works with these two…

Can somebody tell me how this careless comment helps the democratic party? It is obvious that Ms Pelsi does not like Hillary Clinton but one is disappointed that she is not mature enough to keep it to her self.

By the way, I am a African-Canadian who supports Barack Obama but I believe that the good of the party and country should guide people in political position when they make statements.

What's her deal? WHY is she still talking? Enough already. Just take the donkey down the road and shoot it in the head why don't you!

Smart Lady… This ticket would be a disaster either way. I want the Dems to win, but I want it to work past the election and I don't see Hillary taking a back seat to anyone and I don't see Obama having a chance in Hell at being heard when lodged between the Clintons.

You're absolutely correct, Speaker Pelosi…having Hillary as the VP on an Obama ticket would be likened to handing McCain the Presidency on a silver platter.

Not gonna happen!!!

Look like Pelosi is next Vice President !!!!!!
Obama/Pelosi
then
My vote for Mc Cain

Ok Nancy, we're clear on your opinion.

Still, it's just your opinion and nothing more, unless of course you're trying to position yourself for the VP slot.

That's right, it wont happen folks let it go!!!!!

And for the Nobama's and Kentuckyboy's (under the Clinton backer to Obama story) leaving their comments. If you are so bent out of shape about Obama and the PAST Wright issue to the point where you feel you will be ashamed to be an American (Per NOBAMA) go to another country and find residence. Because if you weren't or haven't been ashamed of your country over the PAST 8 years and tolerated the BS under the present President we know what the REAL problem is…and it ain’t Wright. Try looking in the mirror you hypocrites. You were probably some of the same few talking mess about Michelle’s comment. Again I say look in the mirror. No matter who is chosen we should all be thankful to live in the great USA. Pay attention to what’s going on around the world, idiots and be thankful you are HERE with President Obama or Clinton.

Obama 08

I am not sure why Speaker Pelosi keeps talking about this. Has she been promised the VP spot too?

Speaker Pelosi needs to just stop commenting about this. She is really starting to get on my nerves… I would not mind seeing a joint ticket with Obama on top of course but if he chooses someone else then that is fine as well. But Speaker Pelosi needs to let the process play out and not make these repeated enthusiasm killers. I used to like Speaker Pelosi but she is over-stepping her position as Speaker of the House.

WOW!!!! Really, Ms. Speaker…. Are you sure? I think everybody in America knows this…. By the way….. why does Obama seem to always use "uh" so many times. Everytime I hear him speak it's I "uh" did not support "uh" this war "uh…."uh" hey micheal…"uh" micheal jordan "uh" I'm wearing your underwear.. "uh"… "uh".."uh"..vote for change..'uh"…

I hope some of you have a sense of humor….

She is just stating the obvious, Obama would not want Hillary to be his V.P.

Why is this still news ??

That's right, it wont happen folks let it go!!!!!

Obama 08

Funny but isn't she the same one who said, Democrats can stop the war, help the economy, and stop the Bush bullies? Just because she has been involved in politics a long, long, long time doesn't mean she knows anything as she has proved so far. Besides, her negatives about Clinton has been a major issue with this California witch and Obama has played the kissing game well!

HILLARY AND EDWARDS, THAT WILL BE A DREAM TICKET!!!!
REAL LATINOS WILL SUPPORT HILLARY CLINTON FOREVER, ABOUT 73% OF THE LATINO COMMUNITY STILL SUPPORT HILLARY BECAUSE WE KNOW SHE ALLWAYS SUPPORT OUR COMMUNITY, OUR RIGTHS AND OUR FAMILIES ALONG WITH OUR DREAMS. A REAL LATINO WILL NOT VOTE FOR OBAMA,BECAUSE THIS IS THE FIRST TIME HE EVEN TALK TO US BECAUSE HE NEEDS OUR VOTE, BUT WE ARE A LOYAL COMMUNITY AND WE SUPPORT THE PERSON WHO ALLWAYS CARE ABOUT US, NOT JUST ONLY IN PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION YEAR.
WE LOVE YOU HILLARY.
HILLARY CLINTON FOR PRESIDENT 2009!!!!!
SI SE PUEDE!!!!!!!

Of course it won't happen. Clinton will not get the nomination and Obama will need an energetic, honest, new person as VP.

Why would Senator Obama want Hillary on his ticket?? She is an absolute liability and a dart board for the republicans….

Ok, so what I'm getting from ALL these stories is House Speaker Pelosi doesn't think the ticket will happen. I got that from the other stories with the same headlines. Is this still news? Please stop reporting something that isn't news, and that we already know.

Nancy, you are as sharp as a bowling ball to figure that out…. Amazing…..

Careful, I think Hillary is going to claim the sympathy vote again. Poor Hillary the victim, NOT!

Kennedy-Kerry-Richardson The 3 Horsemen of the DNC Apocalypse
Pelosi the messenger announcing their arrival.

Please stop asking this question because Nancy needs to keep quiet and UNBIASED. She's walking the line on this one.

HILLARY 2008!

There is a fundamental difference between Obama and Hillary. Obama does not take PAC and Lobbyist money. How can he have Hillary on the ticket who takes money from PAC and Lobbyist? Doesn't make much sense to me.

Why do people keep asking her the same question when we already all know her answer? And that is completely obvious. Hillary only tried using that to attempt to sway Obama backers into backing her. I am so tired of her political games and lies.

I know sooo many people will say that she shouldn't rule out the possible ticket but Pelosi is doing the democratic party a HUGE favor…she is killing the possible disappointment early instead of letting it grow. if soo many ppl start to believe this ticket will happen then lots of ppl will be disappointed if or when it doesn't happen…and that will bring animosity toward the candidate that wins and possibly lead to ppl staying at home or worse voting for McCain….Pelosi is honestly doing whats best for the party…just wish i could say that about others.

. . . I would not want Hillary standing behind me as V.P. as we may
have to visit a cliff near the Grand Canyon.

Trust matters the most to me; therefore, if Hillary wins the nomination or if Obama puts her on the ticket or even if she has a cabinet position in the White House, then I will not vote democrat this year. I just really don't trust Hillary anymore

Nancy I like you, but please do not make any predictions. Unless you know for a fact thay they will not run on the same ticket, your opinion is only tht, an opinion.

Clinton/Obama 08!!!

Are you kidding? He can't trust Hillary. She will do everything possible to undermine him and insure a failed presidency.

VOTERS: do not get pulled into the clinton campaign's divisive mug-slinging that has started today………………………

Stay focused on bringing a unified educated new generation of Democrats in 2009………

Please do not buy into the defiant nature that the clinton campaign has.

concerned democrat,
deb

She is right.
Obama now carries too much dirty beggage even by Hillary's
standards.
Hillary Clinton will NOT want him on her ticket,

Hillary 2008

Hillary Clinton for the peace and prosperity of the Nineties

Tell them like it is, Pelosi. NO-WAY, Obama doesn't need nor wants Hillary is his VP. That position is already taken by Jim Webb of VA.

She is right.

Whomever Hilary or Obama is comfortable with should be irrelevent. It is obvious that Democratic voters are torn between the two, so why not join forces for the "comfort" of the people of the United States. A highly probably win for the party should be their goal, if they are on the same ticket, they both win – everyone wins. I believe that they both can do extraordinary good for the country working as President or Vice President. The problem is, which one will take the lead on this?

Yup, I don't think we're gonna see a joint-ticket.

When will she learn that some people can't handle the truth and its often best to shut up and smile and watch things unfold as you always knew they would.

Whoops!

Obama supporters, do you believe that questions like this is going to help Obama? Not really. In America you have every right to speak out but in America every person should also be judged by his/her own actions. May he who has no sin, cast the first stone.

There was a small systems error. Please try refreshing the page and if the error is still there drop us a note and let us know.

Hillary is a Republican.

. . . .Clinton is too toxic for Senator Obama.

She's right. I don't think I could see it happen, either. Once Hillary started mud-slinging, the campaign got so nasty that I don't think either of our Dem candidates will be comfortable in office with the other just one rank below. They can't trust each other anymore, and I don't blame them.

I agree with Pelosi–I don't see a joint Obama-Clinton ticket because when Obama wins (1) he won't be asking Clinton to be his running mate and (2) Clinton would never consider second place and (3) therefore, Clinton should just go home to Bill and live happily ever after with their $109 million income.

Nancy Pelosi has great big big problems of her own in the do nothing Congress – she needs to mind her own business and stay out of this race and get to work for the people. She is hated more than George Bush if you want to know the truth and God help us there! What she thinks carries no respect at all with me!

I don't see it either!!

i might have seen it earlier in the race, but there is too much bad blood now!!

now i only see Obama as president!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wonder lol. What a disaster Obama/Pelosi would be. Almost too funny.

Please, nobody wants the joint ticket!!

I agree

Of course not!

HRC will never accept any position except her on top!

Obama '08!

No , no , never, never, NADDA!!!!

OBAMA 08

She's right…again.

Choosing a running mate is a personal choice. And the key word is choosing.

I support Obama, but I flatly refuse to vote for a Clinton/Obama or Obama/Clinton ticket.

Of course it is immposible. No one with any intelligence wants Obama on any part of the ticket.

Pelosi is just trying to make herself relevant. Someone needs to go ahead and drop a house on her sister and splash her with water so she can fade away.

Maybe a ticket without Nancy Pelosi is more posible?

I think Hillary would make a great vice-president!

let the DNC have their puppet Obama
Hillary needs to run as an independent and take it all!!!

Who the hell is Pelosi when her congress rating is 19% lower than George Bushs,…….give democrats abreak Pelosi.

Go do something in congress or shut up.

Of course it won't happen. Who wants third fiddle to Hillary and Bill? And why would Obama pick the candidate as a running mate with the highest negatives of any candidate in American history – esp. since he won't need help winning New York anyway?

Why would HIlary want that anti-American sermon listening Obama on her ticket?

Hillary is the only true candidate. Unfortunately Obama is winning thanks to the kool-aid generation.

This is a no-brainer. It is not going to happen because voters will not vote to let it happen. Hillary is too status quo and polarizing to be VP in a change election. Obama needs a VP who is a postive and unifying factor, like he is, in this election.

pelosi, STOP DIVIDING THE DEMOCRATS! i hope it happens. GO CNN

Shut up and do your job, impeach the Bush admin.

Thank God!!! I wouldn't want Obama on any ticket!!! Obama isn't fit to be dog catcher!!!

Go Hillary!!!
