She would have a vested interest, in sucess; as it would also put her on tract to nailing down the 2016 nomination -
she would be 68 - not too old.

Making her a part of the Adm, would eliminate any fear of sabotage in the Senate,
and strenghten Obama's hand in Fla. and Ohio., and Pa.

It would also pretty much eliminate Hillary supporters defections to McCain, or sitting it out.
About 1/3 of her supporters say the won't vote for Obama, a VERY high number.
Even if you cut that in half, over 10% still would not back Obama.

Unity,electoral strength, a Bill Clinton as roving ambassador, and Hillary's attention to detail, would complement Obama's lofty goals of hope and change.
Would this keep you voting Dem...........???

I was totally against this but have reconciled myself to this possibility........

IMO it sounds like a winning tix..... As would a Edwards VP.....

I'll vote Dem. either way. The real question is will other Hillary supporters do so.
Some of my mother's friends - older folks - say " no way" and will vote for McCain, or not at all.

It's odd. Uber-educated professional women in their 30's and 40's seem to hate Hillary the most. Uber-educated professional women 50 and over seem to love Hillary the most.

If Hillary was VP, would it be good for the country? The world? Who exactly would it help and why?
