say what?

Clinton hints at dream ticket.

You heard it here first. Maybe. Shit, you might read cnn.com, I don't know.

A Clinton/Obama ticket? (or Obama/Clinton?)

I really don't see it happening, but I'm not horribly surprised that she would start to allude to it.

It would be a great ticket either way and more importantly it would let them focus on beating McCain, who has been on a roll.

The thing is, I really don't want to see Clinton getting the Democratic nomination (in part because I really don't like it being President Bush, President Clinton, President Bush, President Clinton), and do you really see her playing second-fiddle to Obama?

There's no way in hell she's going to settle for being VP for 4-8 years when she still thinks she has a shot at the brass ring. Mathematically, she needed blowout victories in Texas and Ohio, and she didn't get them. And with the states that have yet to hold Democratic primaries, she's not likely to win some of them. (North Carolina? Mississippi? I think not.)

Now if Edwards would get off his ass and endorse one of them, it might shake things up a little.
