Re: Clinton-Obama
[ QUOTE ]
Not to hijack this thread, but the democrats have absolutely zero chance of winning if either Hilary or Obama wins the nomination. Obama has a slightly better chance than Hilary but not by much. Either would make a good VP candidate.

I have been thinking the same thing for a long time and just can't believe nobody else agrees. The GOP is playing this one very well right now, letting the Dems tear each other apart while their own candidates are distancing themselves from the current administration and sticking to their meat-and-potatoes issues. The result is going to be that the GOP has a candidate who is going to seem relatively fresh after the primaries and have a chance to play the 'not-a-Washington-insider' card. Their nominee is also very likely to be a former state executive rather than a Senator, which is another recipe for success. I could see Huckabee, Giuliani, Romney, any one of those guys beating Hillary.
Current polls mean much less than you'd think. Hillary has the highest visibility and her party is on the upswing, it's no surprise she's sitting pretty right now. There's a lot of time left.
