If it isn't Hillary, Obama will lose the election. Hillary's supporters are getting ready to vote for McCaine.

McCain is ahead in some polls today. None of the non clinton picks are going to make any difference. Brace yourselves for 4 years of a nutcase in the white house, being counseled by Lieberman. OUCH! I agree with you. No hillary, NO WIN IN NOVEMBER.

I agree completely...and what I think the die hard Obama supporters need to think about is that were it Obama who came up 200 votes short....his supporters would not only be demanding that he be her VP but the media would as well...and both groups would want to examine the votes in close contests...to leave the impression that Hillary somehow stole it from Obama.
