Should Barack Obama Choose Hillary Clinton As a Running Mate?
Should Barack Obama choose Hillary Clinton as a running mate?

I can't do a poll, but I will try and come up with a formula that will work. Here are the choices:

Choice #1...Barack Obama's running mate: Hillary Clinton

Choice #2...Barack Obama's running mate: Someone other than Hillary Clinton

Please make a choice, and if you have anything to add, by all means, please do so.

Here are the arguments:

Hillary Clinton started out strong, and she even had the support of most blacks, but as the campaign progressed, Hillary Clinton became bitter and very divisive. First, it was Bill Clinton who played the race card. Then there was Geraldine Ferrara and her negative comments. Finally, Hillary Clinton made references to poor whites voting for her, and the kicker of all was invoking Robert Kennedy's assassination in connection with the length of the election and Barack Obama. Obama's name was not mentioned, but most ppl thought that it was a cheap shot.

Yesterday, the DNC came to a conclusion re: FL & MI, but the Clinton camp just cannot let it go. The math is not in her favor, so why is she still fighting? I can't believe that Harold Icke, a Clinton representative, had the nerve to say that the Obama camp hijacked 4 delegates from Hillary Clinton regarding the MI decision. Excuse me! Michigan broke the rules by pushing up the date of the primary. Should they not have been punished?

In addition, Harold Icke said that when Barack Obama denounced Rev Pfleger and announced that he was cutting ties with the church, he did not mention Hillary Clinton's name. Eh em! Something is stuck in my throat due to the gall of these people.  Did Hillary Clinton mention Obama's name when she apologized for the Robert F. Kennedy assassination incident?

The Hillary camp is going on and on about winning the popular vote. I have never heard her camp mentioned the caucus states, which she ignored. As most of you already know, the caucus states have fewer delegates.  The caucus states did not release their popular votes, so if they really want to use that argument, they have to count the popular votes for those caucus states.

In addition, Bill Clinton has become a loose canon, and they definitely come with a lot of baggage. The Republicans, who are famous for gutter politics, would use every chance they get to constantly print negative news about the Clinton's, and that would take away from Obama's message. Most of us want to hear the real issues.

Personally, since I've been so focused on the democratic primaries, I have not had a chance to see or hear what McCain is really about. I've heard snip it's however. Since McCain has so many shortcomings re: the economy, I know that they will constantly side step the issues. Each time one of his supporters speak on CNN, they tend to push his agenda and ignore or evade questions that seem negative or unfavorable towards McCain. They are the biggest spin doctors alive.

Finally, I will leave you with the following quote:

“I am stumped that we have the gall and chutzpah to substitute our judgment for 600,000 voters.” Harold Ickes, an RBC member and Clinton senior adviser, told the committee right before it voted to approve the Michigan plan.

Mrs. Clinton has instructed me to reserve her rights to take this to the Credentials Committee,” he continued, as pro-Clinton elements of the crowd started chanting “DENVER! DENVER! DENVER!”

Re: the above quote, everyone is calling for party unity. How is that unifying the party, Harold Icke? It seems to me that Hillary Clinton has the  "if I can't have it, no one else can" attitude. She seemed entitled from the get go. She and Bill Clinton thought that the election was going to be handed to her b/c he was so popular in office. Did I miss the part where the Clinton's are well hated in WA. Does the impeachment hearings ring a bell? Those people are still bitter towards the Clinton's.

Barack Obama is running on change, and Hillary Clinton is far from it. She is extremely divisive, and I don't see her uniting anyone, unless something is in it for her. That's just selfish in my book.

Please don't forget to vote. I really need to know what you think.
