looks like Obama bought his lackey...How dare he do give his endorsment while Hillary was enjoying her win..they had that all worked out before he even gave his endorsement...he is another turncoat...another man not wanting a woman in office..

KK9:37AMMay 15th 2008

Obama shouldn't be picking for Vice President. Sexism has dominated this campaign and as a Democrat I will not vote for the Obama team that cried racism at every turn, but practiced sexism as often as possible. Vote McCain but vote all Democrats for congress. Force them to work together. Write the DNC and tell them sexist politics doesn't work for you. http://www.democrats.org/

He should choose Oprah.

1. Bill Richardson: no more southern border...the ultra-rich of Mexico will be so happy. Bill you done good.

2. His cousin Odinga: it's great for you if you are from the "right" tribe.

3. Bill Ayers: flag stompin' good time at the white house.

4. Rev Wright: Obama owes him big time.

5. Chris Matthews: hey he's blonde and has a big butt, and a huge crush on Obama.

6. Michelle: she taught him everything he knows anyway.

7. Last but not least, the aol political machine bloggers for all their hard work...Obama gofer Christopher, Knowless and "limo" Williams can share the job.

Honorable mention but didn't quite make it:

Ted Kennedy...don't go on any drives.

Edwards...can't even win NC so probably not.

Gore...to much of a media whore...too much competition...not enough room for two Saints.

Larry Sinclair...not pretty any more.

Fidel...oh if only he were 20 years younger.

There are so many others, Obama owes so much to. The entire country (well half of it) for their complete inability to see that he is unqualified, incompetent and possibly, no probably dangerous.

Its not who or what, but how.
The time is now, to tell all, let go for our country , the world.
This is it and we need to push ahead to escape the blunders of the
past.
To become strong we need to see the end as the beginning.
Excite the inner structure of our society,
Expand the realities of becoming one in hope and strength.
We can build a foundation, to walk over not with the obstructions .
Stop fighting , wasting time, between each other personal views.
Become the needed space to lead into a new consciousness.
To end all the hate, poverty, give out aid for world disasters.
Health care will never pass, start somewhere take a step, push for
dental coverage for all.
Help people become not afraid to smile, to become healthy ,improve
self esteem.
than let the medical follow , the dream.
The world can't wait it is moving forward.
We are the ones holding on to the past ideologies of our old lies.
Our country thought pattern has changed, been restricted with
shameful thoughts.
Its time to rise up and question who is running our lives.
245, 000 homes lost due to high interest, fees loans , Oil at 5.00
gal, our jobs taken from our grasp.
Fear tactics used to suppress our life in America.
Stop fighting among each other and work to ignite our faith.
Give it your all not against each other , but for the citizens of our
world,
our air we breath the water we drink and food we eat is on the line.
Give back to our country, to the men and women who have
lost their lives, become disable .
Your ego is the only thing that is stopping us from moving forward.
let go to become one force to take back our nation for the people.

Obama should do his best to convince Edwards to join him in the race, he can garantee the white working class who voted for Hillary, some women and some states that can go either way.
i mean did u guys see them how they looked together in Michigan, they looked like they belonged in the white house, plus Edwards showed a lot of caracter by praising Hillary and saying all the good things about her, it showed how much personnality, charisma and class this man has, unlike Hillary who's been fighting like a wild beast.
the problem is that senator Edwards might refuse the offer. in that case, the democratic party leaders should force him to join Obama.
as a second choice, i would definitely go for Jim Webb, i mean this warrior can shut all those critics who keep attacking Obama calling him too soft, plus his influence in winning some of the swing states.
i like Kathleen Sebelius, she is a very smart woman and very qualified to be the vice president but i can't see Obama picking her for the simple reason that she's a catholic. we will have the same problem as we did in 2000 when Gore picked Leiberman who is jewish.
america is not yet ready for a team Black/catholic but definitely she should get a job in his cabinet, maybe as secretary of state.
if Edwards takes the offer, senator webb is perfect for the job of secretary of defence.
as for Hillary, no way, she burned all her bridges and and having her husband around the white house would make Obama (the president of the united states) very uncomfortable.

Obama/Edwards 08 = CHANGE.
Make us proud.

RALPH TULLY10:00AMMay 15th 2008

Davidg--thrashers need to walk a mile in the shoes of those they trash before thrashing. Barack Obama is highly thought of in the Senate. Always has been. Discounting Barack Obama will not change that or change his lead in this election.

iynaroc0210:00AMMay 15th 2008

It's very disheartening to read all the stupid comments by Hillary's supporters. They would rather vote for McCain just so as not to vote for Obama. That's exactly how George Bush is enjoying two terms in office due to short-sightedness of such people that vote out of revenge. They would rather vote for the person that would further damage this country than vote for Obama. Small minds think small. Obama needs to learn how to speak to people with small minds/uneducated such as in West virginia and Pennsylvania. He needs to get to their level of mentality when he campaigns for their votes.

HENRY MORGAN10:01AMMay 15th 2008

Hello...is this still America?

Any of you RADICAL bashing bimbos heard of sanity? An insane ranking bashing attitude prevails here among RADICAL Clintonites especially; anyone but you and your candidate are A-holes, when in fact the perfect A-holes are the RADICAL insane ranking bashers that fail to recogize their own faulty thinking. A clear indicator of need for behavior modification classes. Limited thinkers resort to irratic behavior when met with situations they can not control, such as an election for instance. The posts here show how dastardly delusional Clintonite fans have become. The rankers act like everyone but them and their candidate is a waffle-head single cell amoebia. And you DARE to call yourself Americans. For shame.

lunasdream10:02AMMay 15th 2008

Isn't Hilary pulling a Huckabee? He did not want to stop until the bitter end either. Also, wasn’t there a book written by an insider in the white house Clinton years "Anonymous" which mirrored Hillary race to the white house? Maybe that chicken has come home to roost.

Suzanne10:02AMMay 15th 2008

Two men punch a woman in the stomach to knock her out of the race after HER big win in West Virginia - does it matter who Obama would chose for VP?

Women will remember this in November and vote for John McCain. We will wait for 2012 to vote for Hillary. We have long memories and a ton of patience.

Diane Diamond10:06AMMay 15th 2008

Been speculated that Obama's top pick is --- the honorable lady governor of Kansas, who is in her 2nd term. She would be a great choice for VP. Dream Team!

jblsus10:06AMMay 15th 2008

Directed to Iynaroc02: You are the supreme judge of small minds/uneducated such as WV and PA. Do you realize how elitest you sound? Small wonder you support Barack Hussein Obama!

lisa10:07AMMay 15th 2008

Until Obama wins the nomination, he would be stupid to pick anyone!

iynaroc0210:09AMMay 15th 2008

And the list continues. . .

jblsus10:11AMMay 15th 2008

Bush didn't mention any names in the speech he gave in Israel. However, Obama was the only candidate who felt the need to reply and defend himself. He knows what he said. That's like yelling hey stupid in a crowd and only one person responds. Obama is that person.

It makes no difference if he is at the top of the ticket.

Susan Estrich: Bad News for Obama?

LOS ANGELES — There is good news and bad news for Democrats in the wake of Tuesday’s voting in West Virginia and Mississippi.

The good news is that Democrats are now three-for-three in the contests for open House seats,

The bad news is that Barack Obama, who has been crowned by the media as the "presumptive nominee" of the Democratic Party, got trounced in a state that every Democrat to be elected president in recent generations has carried on his way to the White House.

Davidg10:12AMMay 15th 2008

HENRY MORGAN...Yes, this is still America...

You OBOTOS are sure impatient.

Soon it will be January 2009 and people will only be allowed to speak good things about Obama. There will be no jokes allowed. If you way a negative word you will be dealt with.

Be patient OBOTOS, soon my children, soon says Saint Barack.

AJ10:12AMMay 15th 2008

Seems that the closet homo Edwards has more than just his head up Obama's ass.
Also speaking of which, funny how we never heard anything more about the gay choir director from Trinity Church who was a "close friend" to Obama, and was found dead in his Chicago apartment at the beginning of Obama's campaign..
hmmmmm...
