Obama/Hillary would essentially be life insurance for Obama, much like Bush/Cheney.

Actually, wouldn't Edwards make a good VP?  He's got credentials in areas Obama lacks (with the unions and with older and more left wing voters) and doesn't actually seem batshit insane.

I think he probably would, of course it would make the second time that he ran first then accepted second fiddle to someone else. In the US that could be political suicide, particularly if they didn't win in November.

Political suicide for who, Edwards?  He isn't a Senator anymore and I can't see him running for National office again.  He'd just pursue the Gore route if it didn't work out.  There are plenty of non-political opportunities for someone like Edwards.

Hillary crying, I heard on the radio from a radio talk show that the question was about her hair and make-up...any verification on this?  Could be really bad for her if it is taken as weakness   :wink:

Quote...by asking the 60-year-old Clinton, as one working woman to another, how the candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination pulled herself together each day to go out and face the rigours of the campaign.

It was not about hair and make-up, asshat. The question was how does Clinton keep herself so cool and composed despite all the hate being directed at her; how does she continue to head up her campaign despite how many hurdles she has to jump over.

I don't particularly stand by Clinton's politics, but I do respect her efforts, her resolve, etc. Honestly, after everything she went through with the stupid Lewinsky thing back during Bill's administration, do you really think she'd cry about HAIR and MAKE-UP? Us vapid womenfolk do occasionally get emotional about other things.

If Obama wins the nomination (currently Hillary is beating him in NH with about 40% of the vote counted), I'll bet my dollar on Joe Biden being his VP pick, due to Biden's extensive foreign relations experience, which is probably Obama's weakest area.

I keep forgetting Biden exists.

Truth be told, I know far more about the Republican nominees.  They're far more amusing.

Hillary is leading Obama so far, with 23% of the vote counted (BBC Newsire).

Oh yeah, I went there.

ONe of the things I have to say about Hilary crying is that I respect it as a campaign move; in the 80's women in business or politics were expected to "act like men" and a lot of stupid cocksucking misogynistic "jokes" are based on this expectation. The reality is, most women do cry more easily/often than most men, and it doesn't make us any less strong; so in a fearless political campaign, a female campaigner should not be afraid to cry, thereby not showing her weakness, but her LACK OF GENDER-BASED FEAR.

GOOD STRATEGY.
