If Hillary is so strong, then my question always becomes, why is she behind.

She had no money in the kitty because she wasted it with arrogance. In fact, Obama has only outspent her by about a half million dollars so far. That's a drop in the bucet compared to what both, or each individually for that matter, have spent this entire campaign season.

Hillary was far from financially hamstrung, she did a lousy job at managing her money.

The longer this drags out, the more that poll will change for both candidates. Right now they have Hillary winning Florida, but like I said, if McCain picks Crist as his running mate, you might as well write off Florida this election, and then (and again I use the polling I provided above) Hillary loses the GE.

Facts are facts, Obama will not take the VP slot. Hillary supporters want it, but it will not happen. Michelle has already stated she would not go through this again if he loses this time. Most of it has to do with their children, which is a subject she has been unbending on. She doesn't want her children to go through this mess again, and she knows the odds of a second place finisher in a primary has no shot in the Democratic party of winning the nomination the second time around. You have to go all the way back to 1892 and Grover Cleveland to find a Democrat who accomplished such a feat.

In the face of modern politics, that isn't going to change. Even our VP's get shut out, in fact, only Democrat has ever had one VP elected to President, and that was FDR and Harry S Truman, and Truman wasn't even his original VP, Henry Wallace was.
