So if Clinton is pres., she has enough southern cred. that she could choose obama, rather than edwards? But if Obama is nominee, he almost has to take Edwards since (a) needs some south and (b) ain't no way hillary is going to stand by that man.

No, I think the argument against putting the two of them on a ticket together, regardless of which is running for Prez, is that the 2nd needs to be a southerner (not Edwards, who whines too much).
But I see Hillary saying, I could use Obama's appeal and humanity as my second, and he'd help me in some of those key Mid-western states. Obama would look at Hillary and say: she drives hom my relative inexperience, adds little in the way of personality, and doesn't get me any easily identifiable swing voters, plus, she hurts me among the Hillary hating closet (or not so closet) mysogenists out there. It's not like Obama is a half-wit rube who needs an adult like Cheney around to supervise him.
