Dream Ticket Bandwagon
It looks like MyDD’s Todd Beeton has gotten on board the Kum-By-Yah ‘08 bus tour for the Obama/Clinton Dream Ticket. There’s a lot of rethinking going on right now, at least among the saner parts of the reality based community.
Mind you, signals couldn’t be more mixed right now with Clinton insisting that that the reports of her asking for, and Obama refusing her the VP slot, are unfounded, but still being reported on as accurate rumors — because for all we know there might actually be rumors out there (ya think?) which may or may not make some self-important whiny-assed cry babies act more mature? so they stop their incessant Obama bashing, (or Clinton bashing). (HT: S.No!)
You almost have to ask yourself the question: Is it better to have Hillary’s supporters out there doing McCain/Lieberman ’08’s job for them, questioning the very legitimacy of Obama’s all but sure nomination from now until 2012? Or, despite going out of her way to just piss everybody off, and as much as it would suck to give in to what amounts to blackmail due to the poisoned atmosphere, should we learn to live with Hillary on the ticket just to avoid fighting this thing on two fronts?
Frankly, even if Hillary whole-heartedly supports and campaigns for Barack, many of her die-hards will never give it up unless they get what they think they deserve. I just can’t help thinking that all this would have been just that more easier on my developing ulcer had Hillary’s name been Bill and (s)he had been running against some nice Irish guy named Barry O’Banyon.
