Have you wondered why McCain will not discuss the economy? He has no clue; that's why! And this would lead to years of unchecked government wasteful spending-as if we don't already have enough of that.
Everybody seems to be backsliding to "race". Obama is not; and has not made this a part of his campaign. If he were the nominee; I believe he would offer the Vice-Presidency to John Edwards, John Kerry, or Bill Richardson.
My father made an interesting comment about the Obama/Clinton situation:
"Right now they are like two scorpions fighting in a tight space. One will be totally destroyed, and the other will not survive for long afterwards".
He said he read a quote close to this in some Tom Clancy book years ago; but couldn't remember which one.
I actually agree with his assessment.
Bill Richardson might be an ideal choice.

I hope that McCain won't bring up Bill Clinton's draft-dodging issue should he ever debate with Hillary, since McCain himself is a former POW.
