A few bloggers and pundits have suggested that a dream team with both Obama and Hillary on the ticket would be unbeatable.

I strongly disagree.

Even if Obama would have her on the ticket, he would view having her and her husband around the White House as a liability.

But a marriage of the combatants would be a disaster for the party. While the proponents of this far fetched idea think it would make their strengths insurmountable, it would also combine their weaknesses that would distance almost any independent. It would combine Obama’s far left voting record, policies and inexperience with Hillary’s serious flaws of character and integrity.

Either candidate would be wise to get a VP with little baggage, a relatively unknown. Having Hillary on Obama’s ticket would be like throwing an anchor to a sinking ship.
