Picking Hillary may mean she does not run against him in the primaries in 2012, and he'll probably be unopposed, saves a lot of money and headache
there's no way obama will have opposition in '12 from a fellow party member.
and i'm not quite sure how being married to bill makes hillary a good choice for anything. how does that qualify her? i mean, would anyone have expected laura bush to get a cabinet post if mccain had won??
then again...maybe i could be an industrial electrician, since i'm married to one.

One could use the same criteria for what qualifies Obama to be President .... Hill actually has been a Senator longer hasnt she? She has more on the job experiance than the newly crowned King , Im just saying this if you are using qualifications as a criteria for positions in government.

her first role in public was as a us senator; he has been a state and then us senator. i'd say they're pretty equal in that regard.

i just don't understand the logic behind 'well, she was first lady, therefore she can be _____'. or that she's qualified because she's bills wife. perhaps they should say she's qualified based on her own merits, not because of who she's been married to. if all she has is her experience as a pols wife, that's not much.

i dunno about that Ziggy... I dont think being a state senator is anywhere close to being a us senator.

I think being a state senator is closer to being a Carolina Barbeque worker than being a us senator.

But that is just my opinion of course.

Clinton has TONS more experience than Obama (including living in the white house and having a voice there also -I think she worked on healthcare in the white house). Also, think of all the world leaders she was able to develop a relationship with when being the First Ho-bag.

That being said, Hillary Clinton is still a DoucheNozzel.
