depending on who gets the nomination of course, who will be running on the ticket as VP? Just curious about what others think might possibly happen.:hi:

5. I don't see how HRC gets the nomination without making Obama her VP |
|
But I am not sure if it makes sense for him to put her on the ticket if he gets it. It all depends what happens. Maybe another woman would be a good bet for him as VP. Not sure who though...maybe Sebelius.

6. Here are my predictions. |
|
If Obama is nominated he'll look to someone who, like him, is competent, new, different, and populist in nature. Maybe someone with certain foreign policy or military credentials. I think he'll go with a General, or maybe Jim Webb (who would be excellent and big help with VA and other purple states in the GE). Biden would be a great choice, but he doesn't want it. Richardson would be another great choice, but he may not want it. There's also a chance he may look to someone like Claire McCaskill, or the woman Govs. of KS and AZ. He'll look for someone NEW, different, and COMPETENT who can help down ticket and in purple states. ** I also think either he or Hillary should give Montana Gov. Brian Schweitzer a good hard look. He's a great red state populist and popular Gov. who can really strengthen a ticket and help a lot in western and purple states. Hillary would be highly considered for Obama, but I don't know if she'd take it, and this has been a ROUGH campaign, so we'll see.
Hillary would have to give MORE consideration to Obama. He would be a VERY strong running mate and would help raise TONS of CASH and they damn well know that. His organizational machine and money machine would be HUGE and scares the SHIT out of the R's. She would also look at red/purple state type people and Generals. Wes Clark and Evan Bayh would also be good VP choices and would be high among those she's consider.

That is the best Obama choice.
There is really no point in picking a hillay VP, but Obama is her only choice ifshe wants to win... But she won;t get the nomination. She was out after Wisconsin.

9. I don't know much about Sebeilus ...although she was lovely she was rather bland and boring. |
|
I could change mind mind though if I were to see/hear her more often and get to know her...plus she's a woman!
