Obama Clinton Ticket A Sure Winner

Sen. Hillary Clinton's almost concession speech after Tuesday's Primaries certainly highlighted the fact that she was the winner in the key swing states that Sen. Barack Obama will need to win the Presidential election in November. If Obama chooses another running mate, Hillary could sit out and hope for an Obama loss which would set her up as the candidate to beat Sen. John McCain (R) in four years. I urge Obama to accept Hillary's obvious willingness to be his VP. She can be the attack dog and secure those voters on the fence that he has not been able to carry with his appeal and momentum. This could be a Presidential election that hinges on the choice of running mate. One other plus will be Hillary's sharpened edge over any VP choice McCain will bring to the table. The hard part will be coming up with catchy name like "Bennifer" or Bradjolina." How about "Barackary" or "Obamaton"? Yikes.....

Hillary Is Out... No She's In... Maybe She Wants V.P.

It's been kind of one of those back and forth Tuesdays for Sen. Hillary Clinton. With Sen. Barack Obama all but announcing he has all the delegates needed to win the Democratic nomination, the math is complete but the jocking is not. Sen. Clinton has had to do some damage control today because the press blasted reports that she would give her concession speech tonight. Now reports are saying she's open for the V.P. if that would help the Democratic cause.

The day's not over....
