Not if he wants to win. I don't think he is even close to wrapping up the nomination either. Hilary and Edwards are still alive.
However, if he gets the nomination, I would think he'd have to select someone from "The Real America", meaning Edwards or possibly Richardson. I'd like it to be Biden, but the smart money would be Edwards, the fair-haired boy from North Carolina.
BTW, the next president is Huckabee.
I think Obama will win because he'll inspire people who wouldn't normally vote to vote.
Just what we need. A President who believes the Earth is 6000 years old. Will Ric Flair be Sec. of State?
Lets face it. Whether or not Obama makes a good president, this country is hungry for change.
Actually, it will be David Herman, because at that point everyone will realize we're all living inside the movie Idiocracy
for real.
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.

i was at a friend's house and we were looking up info like this, so i can't quote the site directly, but it said Iowa's "batting average" was .600 which isn't too bad. but i don't think there's any way to call this yet, especially for the dems. it's just too close right now.
Oprah.
She'll drop Steadman and they'll mang like wild bunnies at every opportunity in a scandalous affair.
Tabloid investors will get immeasurably rich and take over, and the stage work for the idiocracy dream in the US will be complete and solidified beyond what it already is.
Obampra 08!

Not sure about party nominees, but Woodward said on CNN tonight that 3 of the last 4 presidents have not won Iowa - Regan, Bush Sr, and Clinton. Clinton actually had something like 3% in Iowa.
Huckabee is a baptist minister. I'm no theologian, but I believe baptists are fairly liberal when it comes to many social issues, much more liberal than say catholics, mormons, or evangelicals.
The guy seems pretty genuine to me. If the general election were Obama vs. Huckabee, I'd have a hell of a time choosing. Unless, of course, my main man RP is running as a 3rd party candidate, then the decision is easy.
No Carl Everett (Former ballplayer who said ""God created the sun, the stars, the heavens and the earth, and then made Adam and Eve. The Bible never says anything about dinosaurs. You can't say there were dinosaurs when you never saw them. Somebody actually saw Adam and Eve. No one ever saw a Tyrannosaurus rex.") http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Everett
We could do a lot worse than Obama...as long as he doesn't pick a turd like Edwards for a running mate.
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
I hope not. The democrats' fiscal policies just point to how power hungry they are and how much control they want to have over all of us. I do not want to be under such an oppressive regime.
...are those who've helped us.
Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.
That'd be interesting. Liberal morals, conservative economics..... hmm.
not saying this would happen... but it'd be interesting.
I just wonder how long before the hillary camp gillooly's the Obama team ala Bush Rove to McCain in the SC primary 2000.
pass the bong... you have had too much
and his name is Huckabee
well said. OBAMA = HOPE.

yeah, President Huckabee sounds pretty bad.
i hate to admit i had the same creepy thought both last night and a couple nights earlier when i was priveleged to attend an event in Iowa. i simply love the guy. i keep thinking "finally! A leader. A true LEADER not just a politician." Then it hit me like a sack of shit. True leaders don't live very long. Living Colour started playing in my head "...Neon lights..."
He's definitely special. People like him don't come along very often. He's one of those rare leaders who can unite people from all backgrounds. He gives people hope. He's just like Kennedy and Martin Luther King. But we know how their lives ended, so it's definitely something to be concerned about.

By hope do you mean more taxes, and some silly over regulated "universal health care" plan that is sure to fail?

that is unless REAL AMERICANS PUT THEIR HAND UP AND VOTE.
otherwise the religous right will take another Republican who reckons god talks directly to him
Im an australian and religon is starting to gather more political milage here as well.
Scary days
He does seem like a likable guy. Losing 100 pounds or so can't hurt either. But I didn't make the 6000 year old planet thing up. I think it was a debate, one of the 1st debates, where he was asked about that.
Here are a few links that I could find quickly. I'll look for a few more that are more solid

Bill Maher: Why shouldn't it be part of a political discussion? If someone believes that the earth is 6000 years old, when every scientist in the world tells us it's billions of years old, why shouldn't I take that into account when I'm assessing the rationality of someone I'm going to put into the highest office in the land?
Huckabee had no cogent answer; he said that the point was that "we don't know."

But Huckabee is also something else: full-blown nuts, a Christian goofball of the highest order. He believes the Earth may be only 6,000 years old, angrily rejects the evidence that human beings evolved from "primates" and thinks America wouldn't need so much Mexican labor if we allowed every aborted *fetus to grow up and enter the workforce. To top it off, Huckabee also left behind a record of ethical missteps in the swamp of *Arkansas politics that make White*water seem like a jaywalking ticket.
