9 out of 10 registered Dems want Unity Ticket!
This survey was conducted about a half hour ago, around the 400 block of Governor Street,in the Goosetown section of Iowa City. To ensure the utmost in accuracy, the tallies were written, in ink, on my arm. Respondents were of the ages of 25-65 years old, I think. As to not confuse those sampled, the question in the poll was asked: Wouldn't an Obama/Clinton ticket be awesome? The exact results were as follows: Yes- lllll llll No- l.*

* The no vote was actually, "I don't give a fuck who it is, as long as we win", as I can best recall.

Sounds like a wiener to me, folks. I bet I'm more accurate than ARG!

There is a subtle message here. We at DU Think we have the pulse on the race. We live it night & day. There are many democrats out there who think DU is just a college fraternity. They just want to WIN. To them the only way is a Obama/Clinton ticket. I don't think they're wrong. Hey, I respect the shit out of your posts!

8. I don't know any of them.
I think its the worst idea I've ever heard. We should call it the "punity" ticket because its punitive to make Obama take on a low rent pos like Hillary Clinton.

btw, I am in Coos Bay, Oregon, it (the county) went for Hillary by 1500 or so just yesterday. Lots of retiree's hereabouts.
The voters I know have rejected a "unity" ticket outright, on both sides.

46. It really has nothing to do with what ANYBODY wants..... except for Barack Obama


...and if you think HE wants a unity ticket, you haven't been paying attention.


HE... and HE ALONE... will make the decision.


(and if you want Hillary on the ticket, you will be disappointed in his decision).

47. That's funny... 9 out of 10 registered REPUBLICANS also want a unity ticket....

It's their best hope at winning... having a Clinton on the ticket.

48. Bullshit! This is media driven. HRC is too selfish to settle her differences with Obama before the
Convention. Her and Bill are megalomaniacs. :(
