WHO IS CAROLINE KENNEDY? What brilliance or qualifications or "expertise" does she have? Give me a break. Guess it shows Dems are not very sharp. The Dems "vetting" is a joke.

Anything unknown or understood is risky. You don't understand Obama, because you haven't tried. Maybe if you gave some evidence why you call him risky, it may be worth something, but to just say he's risky only tells me that you don't know enough about him and choose not to. Just as Obama was talking about those who mocked him for his tire pressure comment, it seems to apply to you: "as if they are proud of their ignorance" To :The Nightingale Sings in Berkley Square

He didn't formally endorse Obama, but that statement was a pretty good sign he favored Obama over Sen. Clinton.

I didn't answer as I didn't want to hear the bad news. I think Obama is dissing Harry Reid by not offering the top spot to him. I might add Harry Reid is no friend of mine. However I don't think he would be anywhere near the top of anyone's list. Reid may make the outhouse list , you know at the bottom of it. Isn't he one of the head's of a do nothing congress? BTW, Obama is a loser. please please don't pick Hillary as the VP. and now for the real news:I can't stand Harry Reid from Nevada," I flatly told my hometown paper, the Journal in comments Thursday. I cannot now nor will never stand this back biting senator, Mr. Reid. The only one worse is Obama. Obama is risky and Reid doesn't understand heartland of the Mid West issues. He is stuck in a state of "legal prostitution, gambling and abortions." Yes that is what Harry Reid is all about in his state of Nevada or should we say sinstate. Remember Reid is a do nothing senator, and 'bama is a risky choice;. Both should be defeated because they gamble with our values and our country's security. I got a call at three this morning.

Of course, in this day and age when everyone is checking for skeletons in your closet, it's probably a good thing. I imagine this was the lesson taught by Thomas Eagleton.

I don't think President Clinton could survive the scrutnity on many levels. Probably won't get posted but you all know it is true.
