I don't understand why people think John Edwards might support Hillary

They were in cohoots from early on.

That whole microphone slip up...

Each candidate still in the race deserves a chance to be president, they have (are) worked (working) for it


I said no one deserves it more than Hillary, and no one does.

I finally got around to reading the Atlantic Monthly article that Andrew Sullivan wrote making the case for Obama. His main focus was on the baby boomer divide and the war in Iraq. Basically that the war at home (pro-Vietnam Boomers vs. anti-Vietnam Boomers) has been going on for so long that we can't get anything accomplished as long as they remain in power. He even said that Iraq is being painted as another Vietnam for this very reason; it's perpetuating the war at home.

He also gave more direct reasons in support of Obama which I thought were good, but I found the boomer war particularly interesting because I had never known about it. It seems blatantly obvious now.

I was talking to my sort of fiancee and her friend last night and they voted for Obama and Hillary respectively, The Obaman said she would still vote for Hillary if she got the nod and the Hillarian said she feels Barack is not quite ready to be President and should be Hillary's running mate and run in 2016... it was refreshing

A Hillbarackery ticket would be unstoppable


I do agree that some people would be so disenfranchised with Barack losing they'd have a fuck it mentality, my landlord even pulled the Hillary sign I stuck in the yard out, and she was on the FENCE between the two (that was before Barack became a viable candidate) ffs.

Honestly, I really hope Obama doesn't run with Hillary as her VP for a few reasons. The most obvious is what happened to Al Gore, he's not exactly a fan of the Clintons. A VP in the White House with Billary would have no say in anything. Another reason is that it would go against much of what Obama has been saying all this time and would undermine the credibility in his argument. And last, he would be better off running for governor of Ill and then running for president again later. He should not join the mess that is the Clintons, let them have it to themselves. If he ends up like Vince Foster, I'd rather it happen on his own terms, not theirs.
