28. Ok... Lets really get out of DU and into real life.
There is a poll that says Americans would rather vote for a White female (Clinton--knowing the Duo have been there and done that), than a newbie black man.. who has, unfortunately, a middle name of Hussein. The numbers are there....

MSM says its a race between Clinton and Obama. So, you now must pick between black man and white woman. New Hampshire showed what happens when you privately vote the way you feel. And I've lived up there.. there are a lot of very racist people mixed amongst really progressive people. They'd rather pick Hillary.

If Obama quits the race... then you have Clinton and Edwards. Hands down the man is going to win the primaries... A lot of Obama supporters will switch to Edwards and a lot of Clinton supporters will switch to Edwards because now they don't have to worry about getting a black Presidents.. And really.. between Clinton policy and Edwards policy.. Edwards is better...

Now, if Edwards picks Clinton as VP... then a lot of people are happy that they got a woman into a top spot and that is something. Also, the Presidency is protected from coporate whores because Edwards is not bought.. And with Clinton's seniority of been there, know these people.. He'd be able to use her to wheel and deal his way. He does recognize that Clinton would be a powerful asset to accomplishing Universal Healthcare and some of these other progressive policies.. And she'd be able to snub the corps. because Edwards wouldn't let them at the table..

Really.. Its an idea that wouldn't be that bad.. Hillary as Pres. owes too many people too many favors.
