Maybe that's the way it will go. That would be OK with me. Two very diplomatic people could possibly reverse all the harm that Bush has done to our country.

One thing for certain, a man who doesn't know the difference between Sunni and Shia and is conflating Al Qaeda with Iran, drumming up another war, this time with Iran, certainly won't take us in the right direction. If Bush doesn't start a war in Iran, it seems John McCain is gearing up to do so.

This story shows a continuation of the split in the Democratic party. If they plan on winning they need to come together and stop tearing at each others throats.

Once a nominee is announced, that's what will happen, unless there something dishonest about the choosing. Let's hope that doesn't happen.

Not entirely true. If Clinton smears Obama badly, than many Obama supporters won't support Hillary (and likewise the other way). The longer this goes the more likely that a bad attacking smear will accure from one side.

I don't for see any major split in the party, democrats are as democrat as they have ever been this election. The only concern I have is one candidate questioning the legitimacy of the other. For example, Billary has already said in not so many words that because the Michigan voters were disenfranchised Obama might be an illegitimate candidate.

Many people, who are informed, know who Bill Richardson is. Many people know the great things he has done in the state and know that by putting Richardson on the ticket you eliminate any question about experience.

Putting some one with experience on your ticket doesn't give you experience.

It worked for Bush.

And how did that work for the country? I think (hope) that we've learned our lesson. I think that Obama shouldn't try to convince people that he has experience (if/when he goes against McCain), but that he should show that experience doesn't equal good, and that he'll have advisors that will help him.
