Sunday News Shows
We watched Chris Matthews, Meet the Press, Stephanopolous, and Face the Nation. One thing that was mentioned on all the shows was Bill Clinton's behavior on the campaign, and how he might conflict with and/or work with a Hillary administration. One of the interesting comments was how Hillary might try to explain to a potential running mate what his or her authority might be when Bill will be running all over the world doing his thing. I thought it was an interesting question, and I hadn't really thought about it. Of course, hopefully it won't come to Hillary having to pick a running mate.
Another thing that all of the shows mentioned was that apparently Hispanic voters in Nevada supported Hillary and not Obama. This makes little rational sense, but I don't doubt it. One would think that people of color would realize what they all have gone thru, and think that someone who has gone through some race based prejudice would be best able to understand what that is like, and work to stop it. But many things in life defy rationale.
It would be a depressing thing to end up with a ticket something like McCain and Clinton. While I can't say that there wouldn't be a difference, it would be such a status quo election that it would be totally uninspiring. But if Obama loses South Carolina, there's probably no stopping Hillary. Although I would love to see a Green Party president, which is not going to happen this time, a McCain/Hillary election would add insult to injury.
