If for some reason he chooses her to be his running mate, would you still vote for him?

You don't have to give an in depth answer (unless you want to ;), I'm just curious about people's general reaction(s).

This whole election is a big f**king joke. None of them deserve it.

No matter what Obama is going to win, no matter if he chooses her or not.

^how do you figure? mccain is tough competition.

i would still vote for him-although i highly think that he will not pick her as a running mate. she would try to take over.

Are you serious? Obama does NOT, by ANY means, have this election in the bag. There are so many scared and racist people that are going to come out of the wood work and vote for the first time in god knows when, just to make sure an African American MALE does not get into office. Not to mention if he had Hillary on the ticket.

Mmhm.

That and McCain has the vote as of now. We'll see what kind of attacks Obama sends towards McCain, but until then McCain has it. Also, McCain said he wouldn't play dirty or attack his other opponent like things are classically done.

That and Obama has become a very apparent flip flopper. McCain appeals to both parties, a liberal (appeals to democrats) republican (appeals to republicans).

If Obama doesn't get it its because of racists.
McCain will not be any better than GWB.
He has the same views on things and everything.
But if Hillary became Obama's running mate, i don't think i would care.

If Obama get's it it's because McCain's old. See, I can play that game too. No no no no, No. He doesn't have the same views as W. McCain is very liberal. Have you ever heard the term RINO?

What I'm getting at is, tell me why that will happen. Show me proof that Obama will be more than just talk, that he will actually do something aside from give cheerleading peptalks.

In my personal opinion, I think Obama is more than likely going to win. Although personally I really don't like McCain and from what I've seen and heard most people are just picking him just because they don't want to vote for the democrat. Of course I think if obama wins he'll die.

I rather McCain win of course.

Either one of them will be an improvement. Around here, the big issue is McCain's views on Iraq and Afghanistan.

Why would that be a dumb decision? She had over 18 million supporters, and came inches from beating him. He'd end up gaining the support of the rest of the party.

Unfortunately, I cannot vote, but if I could, then yes, I would vote for an Obama/Clinton ticket. And also, even by a relatively narrow margin, Obama is leading the vast majority of opinion polls, so I don't quit eunderstand how one could say McCain has the vote. Oh, and McCain is a dreadful public speaker on any stage larger than a town hall meeting.

not necessarily. it could have a negative effect because he's had this whole "new school politics" message going for how long now? he's been pushing this whole time how we need change, and she isn't change. so some people could view him putting her on the ticket as contradictory. or it could be a good thing for him. who knows, i'm just saying.

McCain's voting record has been pretty "controversial" for a Republican. He has always been seen, up until this election season, as a pretty liberal Republican, hence why his popularity with fellow Reps. was shitty until he started kissing their ass to gain support.

LOL, your ignorance makes me giggle. He may gain a few votes from her supporters, but he'll lose a lot from the people who don't think a woman can hold her own in the office, especially given the negative image Hill-dawg has in the media. There are so many ignorant white trash kids that are going to come out for this vote to make sure a black male doesn't get the presidency, let alone if he has a WHITE WOMAN up in thur.

^ See, I don't kno how true that is. Millions of Hilary supporters are likely to change their alleigance to Obama and vote democrat anyway, which is only going to be helped by her actually joining the ticket.

As far as people who would vote against him just to keep Hilary out, I don't think many of those people WOULD have voted for Obama in the first place, whether through ignorance or political opposition, so I don't think adding Hilary to the ticket would actively be the reason for that many people not voting for him.

but wouldn't this possibly be a good option for him since she likes to preach about her experience? since that is what he lacks, her opinion could be important for a lot of things i think. they do have conflict on certain topics like how to handle the health care system and such but i really feel that two heads are better than one and as long as they can come together i think it will really change our country and the way it is running now.

as for our war and economy, i really feel that obama really has his hands full because now he's the guy behind the elephant that has to pick up all the sh*t that came out of bush's ass.

*edit: all i know is that i will be voting for him.

if i could vote, i would have been rooting for hilary from the beginning. but, since she lost on democratic side, and obama is left, i'm pretty much for mccain.
i wouldn't say i think he would be the best president ever, but i think he's a much better choice than obama.

It's like the people in the last two elections who jumped on the "anyone but Bush" train because it was cool to be a Bush-hater. Not that I'm the biggest fan, but at least I could say why without just copping out and using the words "incompetent" and "idiotic".

Well, it's not entirely like that, but it is in the sense that she probably (no offense intended) doesn't have an actual reason.

I don't think that's the case. I think Hilary is trying to hurt Obama as much as possible so next year she can go against McCain. If Obama wins this year, it will be mighty hard for her to win the next election.

Out of curiosity, how does the general public in the UK feel about the American politicians, or is that one of those things they could care less about?

^ Meh, the thing is, is in that case, it's a BIG gamble to join the ticket, because if he wins with her attached, she;s fairly f**ked, at least until 2016.

And frankly, our own government is f**ked up enough as it is, without worrying about y'all right now. As far as the general opinion goes, most people are generally pro-Obama, although mainly due to Bush-fatigue rather than anything else. This, of course, is with far less general information saturation.
