PREDICTION

After a recent discussion with an anti-war leftist who despises Bush concerning the Democrat field, I made a prediction. If Hillary wins the nomination, I believe she will choose Bill Richardson as her running mate and not Obama. Obama's public persona would dwarf hers and he could remain an "uncontrollable" force, which a controlling Hillary could not tolerate. Richardson and the Clintons go back in time and I think she would have a comfortable relationship with him. Also why does she need an African-American on the ticket? African-Americans will vote Democrat no matter what. However, if she chooses Richardson she has the chance to gain a larger percentage of the Hispanic vote, a bloc that is not as monolithically Democrat.
