Barack Obama’s First Opportunity to be a Uniter

By

If you get the nomination, ask Hillary Clinton to be your Vice President.  After all, your supporters keep telling her to get out of the race because it is breaking the Democratic party apart.  Here is an opportunity for you to show how much of a uniter you really are.  I know a lot of Hillary Clinton supporters would welcome you as the vice presidential candidate if she gets the nomination.  I have to believe Obama supporters, who supposedly support you in part because you claim to be a uniter, would welcome this as a way to make us whole again.

  1. …would she accept it?  I think either of them would rather stay in the Senate than play 2nd fiddle, but it sure would be interesting if they were a ticket.

    • I mean, sure it’s important, but the more important thing is that it be known that the hand of friendship and unity was extended.

      p>I’d readily agree, though, that the loser could accomplish more and would probably prefer to stay in the Senate than accept an office that, to paraphrase Nance Garner, is hardly worth a bucket of warm spit.

  2. His message of “new politics” would be all but lost if he adopted Hillary and the “old politics” into his administration.
    People would criticize him as being an empty suit for “The Clintons” Although it would be false, when has that stopped the critics.

    • “New politics” I thought was about more than taking out revenge against those who opposed you.  I’m starting to see little difference between “new politics” and “young Turks”.

    • And he failed to be a uniter when he took his first shot.

      <

      p>Now he gets a second with a VP pick.

      <

      p>He probably won’t get a third.

      • Funny the double standard. Well it is actually pathetic.

        <

        p>Had Obama stayed “Mr. Nice Guy” it would have been; “Oh no! He won’t fight back. It’s Kerry 2.0.”

        <

        p>Now we hear; “Wow, what happened to “Mr. Nice Guy”, new politics. Obama’s just like Hillary.”

        p>Sabby,
        When you talk out both sides of your mouth, you get spit all over everything.
