Hate speech and rhetoric aside.
Most main stream democrats dont like Hillary as a candidate they know her polls of hate towards her are to high.
Obama is very charismatic and a good choice but people see him as lacking exp as a vice president though that isnt so bad as they dont see him as the president itself.
People think what candidates would do in war etc and lack of exp is thought of.
Now I know the Bush bashers retort already. But regardless of the rhetoric people still think he is strong on defense terrorism like him or not. (poll wise)
Most people are so blinded they cant look at things logically.
Hillary is not a winner sure she would prob get 40% the vote but that isnt enough to win.
A more main stream less hated democrat is a better choice.
Though some hate Joe Lieberman I would find a Lieberman and Mccain ticket doing very well :P
Stranger things happen
Of course neither party would ever allow that to happen
We will end up with like a Giuliana /Condi (even though says not intrested) ticket sort of thing and will most likely be
Hillary and another To bad Harold Ford isnt liked enough I think hes a shinning star for the dems.
