The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

U.S. Rep. David Scott (D-Atlanta), who was once for Hillary Clinton but is now for Barack Obama, has become the latest to argue for a “dream ticket” that puts the two together.

“We cannot win with just black voters, college students and liberal voters,” Scott is quoted as saying in today’s The Hill. “We’ve got to have working-class whites; we’ve got to have the support of white women. We’ve got to have Hispanics, Jewish voters and Catholics. These are the very people that form the core of Hillary’s support.”

But the same piece says more congressional Democrats would prefer Sam Nunn or John Edwards as Obama’s running mate.
