What the hell - we are spoilt for choice this year, aren't we?
Instead of the usual litany of wealthy, same looking guys, we have both a woman and a black man in the running for President.
What I wonder is, once we settle on Obama or Hillary on the blue team, will the other one become the running mate? I realize this is not so likely historically but who wouldn't love that? ALL the votes in one basket and finally some real represntation for women and African Americans. How could that NOT be a hit?
Is anyone out there just as "either or" as I am about the two real contenders for Democratic candidacy?

I am definately in the Obama column. Im a white male (1L), but i see his message of hope and change as a better one than Hillary's "lets go back to the 90s".
i have an irrational soft-spot for hillary. i hope obama gets it because his policy views align with mine more, but it's really a tough one. i am, however, happy that we're even in this dilemma.
running mate? i'd love for it - but i don't think there's any way that'll happen! should one offer it to the other it would be ridiculous to refuse, given what a "step up to the throne" the VP job is... but they're too removed from each other to do that, even if the mud-slinging is minimal. i'm with you on the wishing, though...
