I am a registered Independent and a black woman. Because of his OBL and amnesty positions, I will not vote for Obama. That being said:
Obama like every other nominee that has run for the office of POTUS has a right to choose the person that he feels is more suited for the job and he would be most comfortable with as his VP.
Both Hillary and Bill have insulted Obama at every turn on both a personal and professional level. The fact that she implied he could possibly be asassinated ala Bobby Kennedy style (like many of the Clinton's former now mysteriously dead associates) along with being forced to endure 4 years of Bill living out his 3rd term, is a more than adequate reason for not choosing Hillary as his running mate.
I think these whiny (primarily white women) need to grow up and get over it. Hillary lost. The fact that she is a woman and Obama rejected her is not an adequate reason to whine like 3 year olds. They are collective representatives of all that is wrong with the giant set of testicles known as Hillary Clinton.
Excellent post! I could not have said it better myself. You sound like one of the enlightened and an Obama supporter.
Some of these women just make me want to scream with their stupidity. I expect low class white males to be stupid and vote against themselves. They are very good at that. But women, you would think, would have the intelligence not to vote against themselves and their kids. A vote for McCain and the Republicans IS a vote against women and children. There is simply no other way to cut it. McCain is a womanizer, an adulterer and opposes abortion rights, women's rights, opposed the ERA, lied and cheated on his old wife, called his new wife names in public, opposes children's healthcare, opposes anything else for children.
So women have a choice to make and they had best choose wisely between President Obama who is 100% with them and Johnny Mac who is 100% against them.
Barry pays women on his campaign staff less than what the men make.
McCain pays the women on his staff more than the men make.

Please post a link that proves this. Saying it doesn't make it so. Just because some blogger makes something up and posts it doesn't make it true. Prove what you say.
It was stated in a news article this morning that Hilary did not need to be vetted because her financials and credentials were already gone over with a fine tooth comb when she was a presidential candidate.
The article also quoted an unnamed source as saying that Hilary declined consideration because she did not want the Bill Clinton Foundation's finances scruitinized due to the sources of some of the monies.
Does that really fly??? Would not those same fianaces have been scruitinized due to her run for President had she been the Dem's choice???
Kinda like saying I would not have gone to the dance with him EVEN if he asked me to.
As a woman in her early 50s who lived through the height of the women's lib movement, and so on, I would have loved to have had a female candidate worthy of being president. I always admired Sen. Clinton, although more during Pres. Clinton's first presidential campaign than now. I thought she was smart, accomplished and that she set a wonderful model for her daughter and mine.
The 'deal-breaker' for me was her vote for the Iraq 'conflict' - I knew in my heart that it was wrong then and nothing that has transpired since has changed my mind.
If anything Biden was a more ardent supporter of the Ira war than was Hillary. If her support of the war was a deal breaker for you you must have serious problems with Biden?
