		<description>Ms Martin, I like McCaskill as well but I think Hagel (yes he is a Repub) would be revolutionary and could strike well with Indies. As for the polls, I saw something similar on TPM or Kos but it only referred to PA...not the entire country. That same poll showed Edwards doing well in PA with Obama, forgive me- I do like Edwards but I think he is a weak VP candidate, dude could not even bring in NC last time.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Other VP choices&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Sam Nunn of GA--will turn GA blue and respected national sec expert&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Then there is Rendell, Clinton  man being shopped--yes he would bring in PA but the GOP would use that vid of him praising Farakhan &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Anon 1.25 brushing you shoulders off tell ladies to do it as weill but had he used another song like 99 problem&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;i&gt;I got 99 problems but... &lt;/i&gt;</description>

		<description>Will someone tell this&quot; back in the day&quot; ignorant &amp; out of touch, Geraldine Ferraro , the gesture is a hip-hop reference to &quot;shaking the haters off &quot;! It was in reference to the ABC debacle of a debate by the morons Charlie Gibson &amp; George Stepanopoulos!&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;---------------------&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Well, brushing your shoulders off is sexist.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;So is the word &quot;periodically.&quot;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;If you tell Hillary to get out of the race, you are telling her to sit down in the back of the bus.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;But if you tell her she can stay, you are condescending.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Obama calling the reporter &quot;sweetie&quot; is sexist against Hillary.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The MSNBC on-air staff are all leaders within the Democratic party.  Chris Matthews said some sexist stuff, so Obama needs to be held responsible.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;And let&#039;s not forget that Obama&#039;s wife is hateful, unpatriotic, ungrateful, angry and has an attitude.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;But, if you say that Obama is not sexist, you are calling Ferraro and company racist and hating on them because they&#039;re white.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;And that, my friends, is the lesson for the day.</description>

<p>Well, brushing your shoulders off is sexist.</p>
<p>So is the word &#8220;periodically.&#8221;</p>
<p>If you tell Hillary to get out of the race, you are telling her to sit down in the back of the bus.</p>
<p>But if you tell her she can stay, you are condescending.</p>
<p>Obama calling the reporter &#8220;sweetie&#8221; is sexist against Hillary.</p>
<p>The MSNBC on-air staff are all leaders within the Democratic party.  Chris Matthews said some sexist stuff, so Obama needs to be held responsible.</p>
<p>And let&#8217;s not forget that Obama&#8217;s wife is hateful, unpatriotic, ungrateful, angry and has an attitude.</p>
<p>But, if you say that Obama is not sexist, you are calling Ferraro and company racist and hating on them because they&#8217;re white.</p>

		<description>Craig, Rhonda&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I worked for Jackson County, MO when Claire McCaskill was the prosecutor for Jackson County.  She was later elected Auditor for the State of MO and then Senator.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;She is every bit of what she appears to be.  She would be a great Veep.  They would make a great pair. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;She is a a very strong woman with principles.  She fights the good fight.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;She also promoted minorities in her office to positons of significance and I imagine she continues to bring the good people along.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;There were some Hillary-like Democrats in MO who did not support their African-American counterparts and Claire didn&#039;t play the game.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Hillary could learn from her.</description>

		<description>HRC still has all kinds of drama out there that the RNC are just WAITING to pounce on. Has anybody here heard of Peter Paul?&lt;br/&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xq8aopATYyw There is a fraud case going on right now against the Clinton&#039;s that nobody seems to bring up..Barack will get enough swiftboating..he does NOT need HRC&#039;s baggage too. PLUS why would you select as your VP somebody in your own party who said: &quot;I have a lifetime of experience that I will bring to the White House. Sen. John McCain has a lifetime of experience that he&#039;d bring to the White House. And Sen. Obama has a speech he gave in 2002,&quot; GMAFB</description>

		<description>If Bob Barr enters the race, there will be even more of a reason for her to be McCain&#039;s runningmate.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Conservatives in the south won&#039;t vote for McCain anyway.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Clinton and her supporters are going to divide the Democratic party on gender lines now and then try to win the general election by splitting the women&#039;s vote. McCain will still win white men and Clinton&#039;s place on the ticket will make it perfectly fine for a wary Hispanic to vote for McCain. It will also make things a mess for Obama in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Florida with Bill Clinton running around reminding everyone he&#039;ll still be around.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;No matter who his runningmate, Obama would HAVE to win Iowa, Virginia, Indiana, North Carolina, Mississippi, Louisiana, Missouri, Montana, Georgia, Nebraska, New Mexico, Nevada, Colorado, at least one of the Dakotas, and pull off a major upset in Texas. Scatch that. With the Clintons on the ticket Texas is certainly out.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The fact that Clinton will be campaigning in Florida on Wednesday leads me to believe she knows exactly how to work this.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The more people she can get pissed at Obama before or during the convention, the better her argument to McCain.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Remember, the GOP convention is AFTER Denver.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Why do you think Ferraro would come out today and suggest she&#039;ll vote for McCain in the general election?&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;They think they&#039;re slick.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I see them.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;And Obama/Gore ticket is the only one that can beat a McCain/Clinton ticket.</description>

		<description>Vampira brings way too much baggage to the ticket, and I&#039;m confident that BO and his people know this.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;i&gt;i was stunned to hear her quoting karl rove last night on all of the news programs.

I mean if that&#039;s all she has to hold on to, wow.  I almost feel sorry for her but she brought a lot of this on herself.</description>

		<description>I just love Claire McCatskill. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;However I agree Craig, we need to have certain people keep their seats in the senate. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Obama is the nominee at this point period. I think that with his message of new politics and change, he needs to have someone on the ticket that represents that. Clinton does not represent that. She will contradict his message.</description>

		<description>When Claire McCaskill was asked if she would be Obama&#039;s runningmate, she said, &quot;He&#039;s too smart for that.&quot;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I think she&#039;s terrific. She really knows how to communicate. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I think we need McCaskill to keep her Senate seat in Missouri.</description>

		<description>Hillary would have something to offer.  She is smart and no doubt shrewd.  And the fact is - &quot;real Americans&quot; (white, blue collar,) really prefer her.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;BUT, the reason he shouldn&#039;t bring Hillary along is because of BILL. It is unprecedent (sp) and I dare say just too uncomfortable to have a former President in the White House as the &quot;2nd Spouse&quot;.  Former leaders should go tend to their libraries or good causes or become ambassadors -- not still lurk around the oval office always offering &#039; this is what I would do advice.&#039;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I just have a hard time thinking that Bill &amp; Hill would just steal the show -- all the time -- and keep the public distracted from the real whitehouse leadership duties.</description>

		<description>Thank you for articulating this issue so clearly. Obama needs to win or loose on his own merit. He doesn&#039;t need HRC to add anything to the ticket, because he has already proven that he can take the republicans best punch. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;All Clinton brings to the ticket is trouble to a magnatude unknown. Why do you think Rush, Hannity,  and Rove are shilling for her. Because they know they got the dirt to bring that b!@#$ down. Further, if Clinto supporters can&#039;t find it in themselves to support Obama then let them support the other candidate because they wern&#039;t democrats anyway. This issue with &quot;White working class voters&quot; is BULLSHIT!&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;America is not just hungry for change in the generic sense, but change that represents real character and real integrety. Where hungry for someone with conviction. Someone that not only has substance on the issues, but has a life of substance. A candidate who speaks truth to power, and that candidate is Obama.</description>

		<description>Oh my, rikyrah,&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Can you please give Michael Fauntroy a call?&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&quot;More than ever, Obama needs Clinton&quot;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;He gives 4 reasons:&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;1. The Obamaniacs have yet to accept that he may be the weakest Democratic nominee since Dukakis. Clinton would have already won if it were winner take all. And there are racial and cultural roadblock between Obama and the White House. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;2. Hillary can be a better runningmate than anyone that has been mentioned.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;3. 41-point beating he took in West. V indicates a seriours problem in states like Penn, OH, KY etc.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;4. He needs someone to divert attention from race to something else. Clinton can do that....&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Ok...come on now...really?</description>
