Barack Obama vs. John McCain

LOL, Optom3 -- if you voted for David and me, you'd have two softies in the White House. I don't think either of us is mean enough to do the job. ;D And the place would be overrun with dogs and kittens. But thanks for the vote of confidence. ;)
I have listened to all three senators speeches tonight. Really -- Hillary had the best speech. Hers was sort of supposed to be a concession, but, as the newsmen said, she seemed to be taking a victory lap. Isn't she another case of more popular votes/fewer delegates?
Mack's was pretty straightforward, but too laid back and unexciting. The setting/audience added to the snorefest.
Obama's was a fantastic bit of rhetoric full of word pictures and metaphors, but not too much substance.
Now the big deal on the news circuit -- will Obama ask Clinton to be the veep. May be, but I just don't see them getting along. I think they'd be a shoo-in if it happens, tho. If not -- there will probably be a battle hard fought.
They did draw the parallel of Kennedy and Johnson being running mates even tho there was no love lost between them and their staffs.

Here's a random thought, probly worthy of its own thread.
From a political/governing POV:
We're supposed to guard the sheep, not eat 'em.
