Terry Randall would be a perfect match for Obama.

at the last debate where the candidates were asked what vote/action they wished they could take back; Obama said allowing the Unanimous consent on Terry Schiavo to go forward

The arrogance of it all is a funny thing to behold.
For at least two days now, you've been using fuzzy math to falsely claim that HRC is leading the popular vote.
She's not. Get it? She's not...
That's been pointed out to you before - but your Clinton-colored glasses prevent you from accepting that simple truth.
Harv - this thing is effectively OVER. It only remains to be seen how much class your candidate exhibits in winding down her campaign.
And, no, we won't accept her as VP.
So now, even YOU know what's coming.

kicked ass in Ohio, and won Texas by enough.
Deal with it.
And I'm being generous by entertaining the notion of Obama as VP. As if you'd appreciate it.

if Clinton is the Nominee, the last thing i want for Obama is to have the Clinton albatross strung around his neck for the rest of his political career

that Obama is ahead in the popular vote. Yet I notice that your diary still asserts otherwise.
But at least anyone who read this can now determine how seriously to take your commitment to, like, accuracy.
Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory, however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no survival.

Like the speed of light, the inevitability of Hillary is the same in all frames of reference. She is inevitable no matter what happens with voting. It is paradigmatic.

Maybe you didn't check today?

Hillary's inevitability is a global optimum in Democratic politics. Anything else would weaken the party. Even after she loses, Hillary will remain inevitable.
by theran on Wed Mar 05, 2008 at 09:09:45 PM PDT
I mean, you don't get to pick her VP when she wins, and nobody other than Barack Obama would get to appreciate the notional offer.
I don't get this post at all.

Hillary... won Texas by enough. Deal with it.
Hillary... won Texas by enough.
It looks like your lady may have LOST the delegate count in Texas.
The damn Caucus-Monster reared its ugly head again and took a big bite out of your candidate's fading hopes.
Deal with that, Mr. Milk!

in the popular vote. Might want to update the diary.
Hillary’s New Math Problem Hillary Clinton won big victories Tuesday night in Ohio, Texas and Rhode Island. But she's now even further behind in the race for the Democratic nomination. How could that be? Math. It's relentless. To beat Barack Obama among pledged delegates, Clinton now needs even bigger margins in the 12 remaining primaries than she needed when I ran the numbers on Monday—an average of 23 points, which is more than double what she received in Ohio. [...] Clinton's only hope lies in the popular vote—a yardstick on which she now trails Obama by about 600,000 votes. Should she end the primary season in June with a lead in popular votes, she could get a hearing from uncommitted superdelegates for all the other arguments that she would make a stronger nominee (wins the big states, etc.). If she loses both the pledged delegate count and the popular vote, no argument will cause the superdelegates to disenfranchise millions of Democratic voters. It will be over.
