Argues Politik Ditto, a black conservative Democratic blogger who supports Sen. John McCain for presidenT, about Sen. Barack Obama: "So while John McCain has Mitt Romney, Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, Mike Huckabee, Florida Gov. Charlie Crist and Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal all on the campaign trail talking about what a great guy he is (and obviously eager to show that they each deserve a chance at the VP spot). the same can't be said for Barack Obama. Indeed, most recently, media faves Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland, Senator Jack Reed, Senator Jim Webb and former Gov. Mark Warner have all pulled their names from consideration to be second-in-command. And why is that? Could it be that the Democrat party still aren't as united behind their presumptive nominee as they'd like you to think they are? Or perhaps Democrats are running away from Barack because quietly they're not so sure he can actually win? Or perhaps, like Senator Biden alluded to, calling a black man 'boss' just doesn't sit well with members of the party that's supposed to represent tolerance. Of course, there's always Billary."
