It isn't about how much Obama supporters like Hillary, or how much Obama likes Hillary(although I think Obama is as fine with her as any person would be at the end of a hard contest such as this)... it is about how much the 47% of the Democratic Party likes Hillary. Because almost half of the party voted for her. That's very split. We both have a common goal, you and I, because we both want to see Obama replace George Bush in the white house. We want to make history with this election, and doing so is a serious matter. So I think we should be very serious about what it will take to get us to that goal. I honestly believe that Hillary as VP will do a lot of good towards uniting the party in Nov. I think that ticket will be unbeatable. This is NOT like any other election in history. This is NOT like any other primary in history. A shocking amount of people have come out in favor and love of Hillary.

Even Obama recently said that Hillary is on his short list for VP. OVER half of the democratic party wants hillary for VP and almost half of Obama's supporters (according to polls) would be okay with her as VP. We need to do what is going to get us the most votes from these people who desire this so that you and I can both be so, so, so happy in November!
