14. How about Biden and Wes Clark in her cabinet?
I don't know which one should be WP or SoS. Either one would be great!
Thaey would make me extremely happy.

10. I am starting to think that may be in the works.
Edited on Mon Jan-28-08 10:40 PM by jlake
She has to be strategizing on ways to reclaim her lead.... and I think that unorthodox move would do it.

20. Right. ---Colorado is getting close and Wes is popular in Colorado.
I've always felt that she should announce early in the primary that she wants to bring Wes into the fold. Lots of Rethugs and Fox viewers love or at least like him. He could attract lots of cross over votes rather than cozying up to Rethugs to get their votes.

12. I just wondered if he sat with her because they've been friends for a long time -
I bet it was pretty lonely there for her tonight after all the Bill stuff and Kennedy's endorsement of Obama. I'm known to be naive so maybe it WAS saying something that they were there together. :shrug:

13. I don't know. I am glad he is sticking with her though. He is truly a class act.
Edited on Mon Jan-28-08 10:49 PM by jlake
But I am starting to think that the Clintons are considering making the unorthodox move of having him as the named VP candidate during the primaries.... I think it would boost Hillary... and I think they are looking at all options.
And Lord knows any ticket with Biden on it will be unbeatable in the GE.

16. I was thinking that too - I was thinking he probably knew how she was
feeling today, and was just being a friend.

17. It was very high school
Obama sat with his new BFF Ted Kennedy, so Hillary sat with Biden to prove that she's got a BFF too. :)

21. Ummmm
They're both Senators and have to sit somewhere during the SOTU. Threads like this are a waste of bandwidth.
