I predict that the next Vice-President of the United States will be Obama (after Hillary pulls a sneaky and gets nominated and talks enough stupor-delegates into flipping to her side).

The democrates have a convention coming up one week from monday ... something is going to happen that's for sure. hillary said she would campaign for Obama, but I only saw her on the stump a couple of times since then.

I bet in the back of her heart and mind she thinks she still has a chance.

How much did that birth certificate cost anyway?

I would agree with you, but I have trouble believing that she has either a heart or a mind:rotfl:, only a desperate desire to rule the world. Why else would she not relinquish her delegates? Why else would she want to have herself nominated at the convention? I don't believe that "unifying the party" thing for a nano-second. I do know one thing, if I were Obama, I sure wouldn't want her as my running mate. I'd be afraid that I'd end up with a bullet in my head shortly after election.

That has a zero chance of the survival rate of a snowball in hell of happening. Even though I would love to see the race card that would be played if it did.

Interesting issue. For Obama it can't be Hillary or Edwards so it might be a complete surprise. No idea who that might be. How about Colin Powell? That might be too much soul brother at once for America. Obama might need to find someone with knowledge about foreign politics etc. His own 'Cheney', so to speak.

For McCain, somebody mentioned Lieberman. How about him? Would make Israel happy that's for sure.

Not only that, it would pull some of middle road dems over too. Cannot agree with a lot of the stuff he thinks is right, but i feel Lieberman is a human being, which is a start anyway.

Well since I voted for Richardson in the Presidents poll, I would not be upset if Obama picked Richardson for his VP. He has quite the CV.
