Would it be a smart move for them or no? I don't think he will join her, and instead I think he will run against her win or lose in '12

No. They hate eachother. I think Obama would be more likely to put Edwards on his ticket.
In an ideal world, he'd put Kucinich on there, and then they'd win. But that's ideal...*sigh* |

Even though many people believe it would be the the power ticket if Clinton chose Obama as her VP and vice versa, I personally think it would not work. Even though both candidates have similar views on most issues, Clinton doesn't want to be "overshadowed" (I think that was the word that CNN used) by Obama's popularity and if Obama picked Clinton as his VP, it would completely go against his message of "change." Obama wants to be fresh and new, not have another Clinton in the White House again.

Oh, I am definitely not saying Obama doesn't have a chance, but I was just saying that what if he or Billary were to not win.

When they were nice to each other duing that debate, I think it was just to avoid looking like assholes. They were just being polite. They're both head strong and have said some things about each other that I think people would really question them runing together.

I don't think it's an ego thing. I think it'd stupid for Obama to have Hilary as VP when he's saying "CHANGE CHANGE." Asking the person you're trying to portray as anti-change to be your VP? Yeah, that's a great idea.
Same with Hilary, though to a smaller degree. Asking the guy you call inexperienced to be your runningmate? |

I agree with all answers. Honestly, if I am Obama, I would go with Edwards.

Name calling happens no matter how true it is, and since when has a politician done everything they preached? |
