Obama Better Get the VP Slot

I'm just saying.  

If Hillary gets the nomination after she and Bill leverage nasty little wins like New Hamshire and Nevada, she's not going to have much of a base to energize for the general.  I personally would be surprised if she even reaches 51%.  

The ironic thing is that, despite all the talk about Obama ushering in a realignment election, Clinton-Obama is probably the best shot the Democratic Party has for something like this.  Obama solves all her--and Bill's for that matter--problems.  He injects all the hope, optimism, and energy of the Obama movement into their ugly, by the book campaign.  African-Americans will forgive them for using race to win whites and hispanics in Nevada and California.  He is immensely appealing to indepentents and even a certain segment of Republicans.  Finally, he brings anti-war cred to two of the most prominent democratic sellouts in the lead-up the Iraq War.  

The real question is does Obama take it?  Does he consider running at the top of a ticket with Bloomberg?  Does he wait till 2016?  Something tells me this will be his only shot.
