3. Yes - but they would all vote for Obama over McCain. Obama expands the base! |

4. not enough in a general |
|
if the African-American voter feels disenfranchised that's trouble for the dems if the candidate is Hillary - I don't see how she can afford not to choose Obama for VP - she will need the black vote

5. She should choose Obama as VP |
|
and he should accept. The after 8 years of Clinton we could have eight years of Obama. But she has to win the nomination first.
I really don't know who Obama will or should choose.

but I think that is a huge weakness for her if she is the candidate - Obama would not need to choose Hillary in the same way - he would carry Dems and enough independents to win - it's an interesting twist on things Not sure who he would choose either - would be very happy with Edwards though

6. It is the women's vote |
|
The numbers I saw on MSNBC were
59% of caucus goers were women 51% of women went to Clinton
That is a win right there, if women turn out for her she can't be beaten
Women!!!!!
