Obama might run as VP with Bloomberg before he'd run as VP with Edwards.

The two have VERY LITTLE in common.

Doesn't anyone read the platforms of the candidates, or do they just go on "feeling?" Aww, don't they look cute together? Is that it?

I hardly think the Edwards campaign tossing that corporate toady/sellout accusation at Obama this afternoon is a motivator for a Top Two Unity ticket, hmmmmm?

This shit doesn't sound like Kumbayah Time to me:

Edwards campaign says Obama was a corporate sellout
Posted: 02:25 PM ET
(CNN) — In the wake of its Iowa loss to rival Barack Obama, John Edwards’ campaign is ramping up the negative tone of the final days of that race – accusing the Illinois senator of having once been a sellout to corporate interests.

Edwards has made his populist stand a cornerstone of his campaign.

"Barack Obama's kind of change is where you sit down and you cut a deal with the corporate world," Edwards Campaign Manager David Bonior said during an interview with MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough. "If you look at his record in Illinois when he had a major — sponsored a major health bill that's what he did. He watered down with the help of the corporate lobbyist and they got a weak product out of that."

Scarborough asked: "Are you saying that Barack Obama is a sellout to corporate interests?"

Bonior replied: "He was four years ago in Illinois. All you have to do is look at the legislation I'm referring to."

Bonior was referring to health care legislation that Obama was instrumental in passing when he was an Illinois state senator five years ago, in part because he worked with insurance companies to make additions to the bill that would ensure their approval of the measure.
