The election will be decided by a very close margin, and both parties are very worried about the stay-at-home voter. The combined ticket will lessen that number for the Dems. Sure, some of the supporters of whichever is VP will still stay home, but most who would have stayed home (or crossed over) will show up. This is definitely going to be part of the calculus.

I agree, Captain, it seems to be a net loss. Unlike the JFK - LBJ ticket (who hated each other, and had family / staff hostilities) I see no net positives. LBJ had some real legislative clout, and neither Clinton or Obama has that kind of experience or power. Pairing two weak candidates who have significant animosity toward each other seems even less promising of success than drafting St. Albert, the Goreacle. What the Democrats need is a Harry Truman, someone who actually understands and believes in main street middle American values. McCain is smart enough to recognize that, and in his visits to traditionally Democratic communities he's made clear that he 'gets' it - the little guy is hurting, and the little guy is the all American Everyman. Neither Clinton or Obama seems to connect to that voting bloc, so pairing them gives the ticket all the liabilities of either front ronner, and nothing to counter balance those liabilities.

As you say, both have meager legislative experience or credentials and neither have any form of executive experience (beyond Comrade Clinton's 'co-Presidency'). Having said that, the Democrat Party needs a martyr, someone whose death will enable the Party to declare some sort of 'war'. Doing so, they can bring out their big Socialist weapons of mass destruction to complete the movement into the rest of the Socialist sphere. Comrade Obama, with his race and youth is the sort of candidate that makes an ideal martyr. Would YOU like to have Comrade Clinton and YOUR Vice-President?
