Obama - Clinton Ticket?


No matter how you look at the Presidential election it is a first in our nations history for the record books. We as Democrat’s are deciding between a woman for President and an African American and that in itself is worthy of the vote alone. The Democrat’s are going to win the Presidency in the next election by a landslide and that is pretty much a fact if you simply look at the number of Democrats voting. Be it the Clinton campaign or the Obama campaign the people they have driven to vote are voting in larger numbers than McCain could ever hope to beat.

This election is so close that there is a possibility that it will come down to the Democrat convention in Denver on who the candidate for President will be from the Democrat Party. Given current trends and voting results it would be a blood bath that the party does not want. Somewhere in the middle is the solution and it may have already been discussed by the two candidates. Reuters has this little bit on the possibilities come Denver…

Clinton hints at Obama as possible running mate


WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Energized by a series of wins that revitalized her presidential campaign, Sen. Hillary Clinton hinted on Wednesday at a possible joint Democratic ticket with rival Barack Obama.

In two television interviews, hours after she scored critical primary victories in Texas and Ohio that helped revive her presidential bid, Clinton was asked about a joint bid with the first-term senator from Illinois.

"Well, that may ... be where this is headed, but of course, we have to decide who's on the top of the ticket," Clinton said on the CBS "Early Show." "And I think that the people of Ohio very clearly said that it should be me."

In an interview on MSNBC, Clinton noted that both she and Obama had been asked if they would pick the other as their vice presidential running mate.

"Obviously, it's premature for either of us to address it," she said.

She added: "There is a lot of ... interest in that. Many Democrats are hoping for that. We have to sort through this nominating process to see ... who ends up as the nominee.
"But we're going to put together a winning ticket. The most important thing is winning in November."

Yes there are many states still to vote but the idea of an Obama Clinton for President is not only a good one but the only solution to merge the ideas and energies of both campaigns in one common goal. Beating John McCain to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue!

Talk about who will be on top of the political ticket is almost pornographic when it comes to talk radio on this topic. That might make Bill smirk with amusement but this is an election to change the path of America and many people are down right serious about it. If there ever was an election in American history then this one is all of that and more.

Both Democrat’s are for ending the war in Iraq and McCain is not. Both candidates are for universal health care and McCain is not. Both candidates are for retrofitting our education system and nobody knows where McCain is on that issue. Both candidates are running against the Presidency and sell out of America by George Bush and John McCain just accepted President aka Emperor Bush endorsement at the White House. One common thought in the Democrat candidates is that you will not have George Bush part two in the next President and the nation will face a new path. A new destiny where America will talk to the world rather than insulting the world with a nation building policy.

No matter who wins all of the primaries, be it Obama or Clinton, it would be a death throw to the Democrat’s if either Senator Clinton or Senator Obama do not pick the other for a Vice President running mate. Both are strong candidates for the Presidency and both would offer more to the American people if they were united against whatever John McCain throws at them come the November election. Voters are united on the Democrat side of the aisle on the issues and together this would be a super ticket to shun the more of Bush ideology that Republican John McCain is offering.
