Should obama have named Mrs Clinton as his running mate.?

Question

It would seem the democrats have gone backwards,18m people voted for Mrs C" how many voted for Biden you do the math.

Answer 1

No, I don't think he should have named her.  It is proving difficult enough to get the Clintons out of the spotlight.  If she actually became his VP, she would run amok on a regular basis.  (Like she did with the aborted health insurance reform during Bill's reign.)

If Obama becomes president, he doesn't need a VP that will continually undermine him.

Biden is a respected senator with tons of foreign policy experience that Obama lacks.  It was a good choice.

Answer 2

The Dems have lost this shoe-in election.  Hillary could have won!

Answer 3

Interesting one - I'd have to agree with you.  On the other hand, what President wants to be overshadowed - or made to look second-rate - by the Vice President, and with Hillary in this position, those things could easily happen.

Answer 4

He should but he's not the one deciding. He as to keep in line with the boys who run the democratic show.If he doesn't he will end up like Kennedy.

Answer 5

No. She will have far more impact in the Senate than as VP (unless Obama pulls a Bush-Cheney type of deal).

Plus Hillary and Bill don't play second string. So Obama will spend have his days controlling the two.

Answer 6

The only reason 18 million people voted for her is because of Billy.  If you actually listened, like I did, to what her policies would be if she had been elected, it would scare you.  She reminded me too much of a female version of Bush jr.

Answer 7

Obama hates Clinton.

Answer 8

you bet ye.

Answer 9

Mr "change and hope" should not have picked a Senator who more than anyone, represents the same old c**p in Washington. The guy has been in that office since 1973. He is a big part of the problem Obama claims he will fix.

Clinton was his only hope to win.
