Although she has been more willing to entertain it, Obama doesn’t want her as a running mate. I don’t blame him, as it would rail against his campaign theme of a new change against same old politics. But with Indiana and North Carolina being as tight as they are, plus the Wright issue is not going away, plus 28% of Hillary supporters swinging to McCain if Barack is the Dem nominee, I think all of this is obviously going to boil down to her having to be on the ticket. For the good of the party, but also to ensure that it’ll be a Democratic White House. And I think the healing process of them coming together will play out a lot better than some give credit. Their platforms and positions on the issues are almost identical. The healing will be as passionate as make-up sex. You can just about close your eyes and imagine Bill and his goofy grin, guffawing away onstage as he drapes an arm around the Democrat’s new prodigal son, as if he had endorsed him way back when Teddy did.

So, after the healing begins and the media becomes consumed with the new Obama-Hillary love affair ticket, look for blacks, hispanics, women, white collar males, and independents, all break for the Democrats in November. Who knows, maybe even Texas will become a blue state.
