Can Clinton bring her supporters to Obama???

Clinton's new "job" is to bring voters to Obama. I do believe that vast majority of Clinton's supporters will end up supporting Obama in November, but I am admittedly suprised to see the vitriol and anger that is still ruminating in many of the Clinton backers portion of the Democratic Party.* If you take a peek at the comments section from my last post, you too can see some of the lunacy and anger that is permeating through these former supporter's minds. I don't think I will be spending much more time discussing this topic, as - so they say - it is water under the bridge. It was interesting to note that AM Donkey apparently has a direct pipeline to the 17% who say they will vote for McCain.

In a CNN poll released Friday, 60 percent of Clinton supporters said they would vote for Obama, but 17 percent said they would vote for McCain and 22 percent, said they would not vote at all if Clinton were not the nominee.

Additionally, I think the odds of Obama choosing Clinton as the VP just went up, because everyone knows that whatever Jimmy Carter says, the Democratic establishment will renounce and undermine.

But not everyone is behind the idea of a joint ticket. Former President Jimmy Carter said that would be "the worst mistake that could be made."

The odds improving does not, however, make her the odds on favorite. According to bodog.com, that lovely spot belongs to Jim Webb. Though, I'm looking at Wes Clark myself.

* Of note, when referencing the party it is the Democratic party not the democrat party. This is a point of information for a couple of the denser commenters from the last post.
