I know the title sounds like a reality show, like the Search for the Next Elle Woods, but what I’m really talking about is the search for the vice presidents. This is a very serious matter and the nation holds their breath as both Obama and McCain progress in their looking. Obama has hired Caroline Kennedy, Eric Holder (former deputy attorney general), and Jim Johnson (searched for VPs for Walter Mondale and John Kerry). One of the big questions is: “Will Obama have Hillary for vice president?” There are many opinions going around about this so I intend to add mine… Because of the person Barack Obama seems to be, I think that he might, if only to get the votes that Hillary held. However, if I was him, there would be no way I would choose her. For one, I would not want to bring all the bad press and controversial speeches she has given to my campaign. That way it might get ruined. If I was Obama I would rather have Hillary try to do all the harm she could to me and weather it through with a trustworthy, America-worthy vice president. And if Obama did in fact choose Clinton (i’m hoping he won’t) and make it to being president, it would hurt his career as president. That is because Hillary Clinton might try to ruin his time up there, if the past has been any indicator of her feelings towards him. All I am hoping is that Obama AND McCain make the right decision in who their vice president will be. Because that is an extremely important choice, and whoever it is could either help make or break your campaign.
