I assume, Pea, that you are listening to Rush today. And, I have to admit that today he is making me laugh. Although, I would also have to admit that I am laughing with him and not at him as you might be. Everything from his Rush to Vote antics to Shanklin's new Spitzer parody - it's a riot today. I can just picture all the high-minded Dems running around in a tizzy yelling "what do we do, what do we do?"

And, how about those hysterical notable quotables straight from the junior senator from New York?

"Careful Rush, of what you wish for"

"My thoughts and prayer go to Eliot Spitzer and his family"

and my favorite...

"Senator Obama would make a fine Vice President"

(These quotes may be exact but are close enough to convey the thought)

I guess she doesn't read the papers. Obama leads her in both the popular vote and electorals and the is no theoretical way she can catch and pass him by the time the convention meets.

I only listen to Rush when I am in the car. I won't be in the car today until the time Sean starts.

I might have laughed as well today.

Chances are that Obama won't be able to win a clear majority of the delegates, either. Clinton is attempting to put together a "dream ticket", but Obama is having none of it. His comments in Mississippi were something to the effect that the #2 has no business telling the #1 that he should take the second spot on the ticket.

Why would John McCain choose his Democratic opponent as his running mate?

Plus, you know that Senator Clinton never would have said that Barack Obama would be a fine VP if he was white.

Of course, it would only be a dream ticket if she is in the number 1 spot. Obviously, they think the number 2 spot is beneath them.

Yeah, I'm waiting for the first hint from Clinton that she'd be willing to take the #2 spot.

But I'm not holding my breath.

Won't happen - even if she were inclined, I doubt Obama would take her on the ticket. I've heard rumors that he's considering John Edwards for the role, but might choose someone else. If Clinton ends up with the nomination, I think she'd be well advised to select someone like Bill Richardson for the #2 slot. But what do I know?

OTOH if the nomination isn't decided until the convention and the superdelegates get involved, it's possible we could have a shotgun wedding of Obama and Clinton.

But no matter what happens, I'm mindful of the line from Simon & Garfunkle's "Mrs. Robinson".

"Every way you look at it, you lose."

Why would she want to do that? She has already been co-President (at least in her own mind).
