I think he will refrain from making a VP decision for a while. I think he'd be wise to verbally explain that Hillary is a leading contender. Then he should make a few possibilities known and meet with them and get some publicity. Allow the polls to show how the electorate feels about each possible contender compared to Hillary. And then go from there. Hopefully the polls among Democrats will show that Richardson or someone else resonates with the electorate. Personally...I'd like to see Richardson. The first African-American President and Hispanic Vice President. It would also open the door for a second historic race in 8 years when Richardson runs as the first Hispanic President. That'd be what I'd bank on. Obama is running on "Change". Clinton is a throwback to another decade and administration. I think the American people are tired of Bush's and Clinton's.

Re: Barak Obama Clinches Democratic Nomination

I think Obama only wins in Nov if Hillarious is on the ticket.

Re: Barak Obama Clinches Democratic Nomination

Just out of curioisity, I went to the National Journal study where they found Obama to be the most Liberal Senator. I wanted to find out more about the criteria. It is interesting reading. He does vote as Liberal on many key issues. He did cross and vote with the conservatives on funding the military.
But I also found this that I thought was curious, in order to get ranked you have to vote on a minimal number of issues I guess to establish a pattern:

"Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., the only other senator whose presidential candidacy survived the initial round of primaries and caucuses this year, did not vote frequently enough in 2007 to draw a composite score. He missed more than half of the votes in both the economic and foreign-policy categories."

Thanks for sharing this informative info with us this morning. There is so much news out their that we have yet to learn about McCain and Obama. It's going to be a long, long battle to November.

That's the point I've been trying to make...we've been getting a lot of information from talking heads on all sides, but very little news. I believe that given the global climate (political, social, financial, and environmental) and the decisions that have jeopardized our standing in each of these areas, this will be a very important decision. I'm tired of all the partisan "pundits" and extremists on all sides with the scare tactics and innuendos.
It is impossible to make wise decisions with flawed and skewered information.

Hey, brother, you're preaching to the choir!
