The Democrats can't possibly win. They're too stupid.
Any ticket with Hillary or Obama in either position will mean certain defeat. This country is not ready for a woman or a black guy to be in either of those positions, regardless how badly it may think its current leader is doing.
Back to the stupid thing, the Dems won't realize this and will put one or both of 'em on the ticket. Mondale/Ferraro, anyone?
Maybe a generation from now it could happen, but not now.
McCain is my far-and-away favorite because he's a Republican and because he's actually intelligent and moderate enough to work with all parties for what's best for the country. Unfortunately, the current Republican party is far too extreme to nominate a moderate to the ticket.
Once it becomes clear to the Republicans that the Dems are going to do something stupid with their ticket, the Republicans will nominate one of their more radical members, knowing it would be a close but can't lose race.
That's my prediction anyway, using my typical, "what's the dumbest thing they can do?" approach, because that's what they always do...
