"Good morning! There&amp;#x27;s nothing like acknowledging the biggest Democratic voter fantasy (to get a little morning-after good press) while trying not to be seen as the spoiler of the Democratic Party&amp;#x27;s chances in November. The Double Feature Ever since Barack Obama began to look like a serious challenger to Hillary Clinton, there have been whispers of a unity ticket. Those whispers began to sound more like shouts around the time of the Los Angeles debate, but both candidates have continually pooh-poohed the possibility in public statements. That ended yesterday, when Clinton acknowledged that she doesn&amp;#x27;t mind the idea herself, as long as she&amp;#x27;s not the VP on the ticket, saying, &amp;amp;quot;That may be where this is headed but, of course, we have to decide who is on the top of ticket. I think the people of Ohio very clearly said that it should be me.&amp;amp;quot; But is she serious? Most political observers see it as more of a shrewd acknowledgment of some voter fantasies and not an invitation to Obama to actually join her as the second banana. It&amp;#x27;s not exactly standard procedure to invite the front-runner (which, by the delegate count, Obama still is) to be your number two and, after what is likely to be at least two more months of blistering attacks on one another, I can&amp;#x27;t see them holding hands and playing nice in the fall. Florida and Michigan As predicted, this week brings renewed attention to and interest in finding a way to seat delegates from Florida and Michigan at the Democratic National Convention. However, Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean dumped a little cold water on the Clinton campaign by categorically denying that the January votes would determine how delegates from those states were seated. He did, however, leave open the possibility of those states submitting re-vote plans for June, in which case there is no way Clinton will drop out even if she loses every state between now and then, including Pennsylvania. Of course, the states want the DNC or state parties to pay for the new primaries, the DNC wants to put its money into getting candidates elected and every plan seemingly involves fewer polling places and shorter hours which seems pretty stupid given turnout to this point, but at least there are some discussions happening. Are you dreaming of the &amp;amp;quot;unity&amp;amp;quot; ticket, or is it your biggest nightmare? Who do you think would get stuck in the VP seat? And should there be a re-vote in Florida and Michigan? &amp;amp;#8212;Megan"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
