O.K. – I’ve been saying this to anyone who would listen for a long time. I knew if Barack Obama didn’t pick Hillary Clinton as his running mate, McCain would pick a woman for his. This is what I wrote back in early June…

Should Barack Obama choose Hillary Clinton to be his running mate? I asked this question at The Care2 Election Blog, you can see comments here and here. What do you think? This will be the topic of today’s political blog roundup.

It seems to me that a “dream ticket” is the only way to bring the party together. I also think, if Obama doesn’t choose Hillary as his VP, there is a very good chance McCain could win in November. And McCain (if he’s smart) could end up choosing a woman as his running mate. If he does that, many women would see it as an historic opportunity for them to vote for the first woman VP.
