NEW YORK (CNN) – With Barack Obama on the verge of securing enough delegates to become the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, a New York newspaper signaled it will use its editorial page Wednesday to urge him to pick rival Hillary Clinton as his running mate.
The New York Observer informed the media Tuesday evening of its intention to endorse Clinton to be Obama’s vice presidential pick. Prior to the New York primary on February 5, the newspaper threw its support behind Obama to be the Democratic presidential nominee.

Obama and voters should determine that and not any media outlet
Geez..
I guess her campaigning does continue.....
Of course they do... It's the only thing that could save Obama from the Republicans...
I believe that choice should be his. I'm sure there are other women that qualify for the job. I do not see Senator Clinton as being the VP for Senator Obama. We do not need anymore Bill and Hillary in or around the White House.
Can we celebrate Obama's history making win today,,,,PLEASE??? They're really wanting to rain on Obama's parade these people!!
I don't think that's right. Let him decide by himself.
Obama doesn't need Clinton to win!
She would be better off holding until 2012 she souldnt have to carry his baggage and when he losses in NOV she will have a better chance the next time around.
Excellent thought! Obama is such a nice guy and he wouldn't mind doing that.
I hope Hillary,tells Mr Barack,where he can put his VP offer!
I will Not vote for Barack,no way no how!!!!!!!
And this means what?
No way. Obama camp.....please don't let this happen. With all due respect for the Clintons......Your message of 'change' is stronger than them. You will win in November......by yourself....by a landslide.
Another Joke???? Another Rush for Decission... Obama.... Heed the Grammar....... He will never be!!!! CIC!!! You still don't get.... Why?
Even!!!! The New York Observer. Is Blind, to the Inevitable... Borack Obama, is not Electable......
This is great news! I am so happy to see the New York Times and other newspapers and groups finally supporting the idea of Obama and Hilary on the same ticket. I think it would unite the party, and be the best thing for the country. I like both of them for different reasons, and I believe that together they will beat John McCain in November by a landslide, and send a powerful message of unity and positive change to the rest of the world.
Now there's a newspaper that should line the bottom of a birdcage.
Don't do it Obama.
Never never never..Hillary should not his VP..never
Nice trick Clinton!
I would disappointed if chooses Clinton for VP. There are hundreds of qualified people than Hillary. The only reason Hillary was winning in some states was because of her name. Barack needs someone who has some experience.
For all the criticism Obama supporters lay at Hillary supporters for picking McCain, they sure seem to demonstrate their own party loyalty when they scream 'I will vote for McCane instead if Hillary is on the ticket.' Hypocrites!
SHAME ON HILLARY FOR CORNERING OBAMA.
IT'S NOT THE NEWSPAPERS PLACE TO DECIDE.
THE CHOICE IS OBAMA'S ALONE AND I HOPE HE WILL NOT CHOOSE HILLARY FOR VP, IT'S A BIG MISTAKE.
FEMALE FORMER HILLARY SUPPORTER.
General Wesley Clark would be a better choice of VP for Barack Obama. He needs someone with solid military and diplomatic experience.
The problem with this is HOW faithful Hillary will be; she can do anything, anything at all to achieve her aim. She should first of all go back to where she has caused division and make things up......like White women and blue colar workers, then we take it from there.
I saw this coming all along.
And it is...
Obama/Clinton country!!!
Peter E......Well said. Exactly
Obama/Clinton would be a blowout
Whatever beats McCain. We need to focus on the real opponent.
I do not believe that Hilary Clinton should be the VP of Obama. She has too much baggage. Obama would have to take her and Bill and all the negative things that come with them. No way.
