This dream ticket is just that a dream. Hillary supporters need to realize that Hillary’s presidential aspirations are over FOREVER. There is no 2012 there is no VP spot. She’s too much trouble and her supporters wish for her to run again in 2012 assumes way to much. First, McCain would have to win the GE (not very likely). Second, an older Clinton would have to find the energy to give another 14 month campaign a go without the luxury of starting the race as the presumptive nominee(very draining and hard to do). Thirdly, if McCain were to win the GE Hillary’s “I told you so” moment will never happen. Her claims that she was most electable will be drowned out by the Dems (rightly) blaming her for splitting the party and causing the GE loss. Obama suspects that even die-hard Hillary supporters (the ones who aren’t racist) will come around to him by November when they take the time to see that his policies mostly mirror hers. The baggage she brings outweighs the benefits. Obama knows this and surely wont take her as VP. What he needs to do is to focus on 1 or 2 battle ground states (IN,OH,PA,CO,FL,VA etc) and select a VP who gives him a shot to turn a red state blue.
