Only a Dream Ticket Prevents Democratic Nightmare

Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama might be stuck with each other -- not just for the long haul to the Democratic nominating convention, but well beyond. They might have to run together, whatever the order and whether they like it or not.

The most likely scenario going forward is that unelected delegates, the so-called super delegates, will decide this thing -- and they might not make a choice in sufficient numbers to give either hopeful the nomination before the convention.

If Clinton or Obama cannot find some miraculous way to lock down a nominating majority in the remaining primaries and caucuses, look for undecided super delegates to opt for the easiest way out and urge them to run together for the November election. More on Craig Crawford's Trail Mix

With Obama at the top of the ticket, I can't see how he would want anything to do with Hillary and Bill on a daily basis.

With Clinton at the top of the ticket, I can't see why Obama would want to be VP #2 behind Bill.

Either way I think these 2 would have a tough time getting along and I can't see a ticket that includes them both.

I agree.

besides, look at the voter turnout numbers. Not that it is beyond the capabilities of the democratic party and leadership to blow an advantage like this, but it would have to be almost willful mismanagement to blow this lead.

Craig,
When you are with Mrs. Clinton again, please remind her of the comittment to release those tax returns by April 15th. If she doesn't, perhaps you will write one of those scathing rebukes to show the character of this lady. But on second thought, we should not expect that of you. Should we?
