"GIN (GWT INjection) brings automatic dependency injection to Google Web Toolkit client-side code. GIN is built on top of Guice and uses (a subset of) Guice's binding language. (See GuiceCompatibility for details.) By using GWT's compile-time Generator support, GIN has little-to-no runtime overhead compared to manual DI."

I am using Guice + GIN (Cocktail?) in order to improve my multi-platform portable chart code. Today, I use hand-rolled dependency injection to inject Android, Swing, and Browser Canvas specific rendering drivers, and have run into alot of maintenance headaches, but I am switching to using Guice + GIN to centralize all device-dependencies between the browser and Android, including rendering classes and event handlers
- Ray Cromwell
Also, on the backend, I use Guice + Wideplay's Warp-Persist/Dynamic Finders to auto-inject JPA, Hibernate, or JDO persistence layers, leaving my code datastore agnostic.

I just like the fact that GIN & Guice is a slightly misspelled Snoop song :)

No doubt Obama will need a lead-lined asbestos flack jacket if HRC is on board.
- Dave Winer
admittedly that is a formidable union. it might show some ability to compromise values. Obama is a bit green with his quality of self righteousness. Even Reverend Wright would of gone away if he had apologized earlier. By reaching out to people outside of his inner core he will be a formidable threat. Much like the Democratic union in the legislature. The Republicans over the last 8...

Do you really think it's gonna be that easy? And even if the Answer is yes..any dream tickets will not change anything right?

Dave, no I disagree I see either Bill Richardson (brings hispanic and West voters) or John Edwards (southern and white). I think HRC has attached Obama too much to make it work. Also she polarizes the moderate republicans how will cross over and vote for Obama.

Jon, but the Democrat party will need some healing the Clinton and Obama sides are pretty bitter towards each other. Maybe running together will unite both camps
- Shey, Jamaican of FF
If HRC was First Lady, V.P., then the first woman President, would that be even more impressive than just first woman President? Add in Senator, and assuming full terms as V.P. and President, you could have a political pedigree that might get you up on Mt. Rushmore.
- Richard Finucane
The idea does have cinematic charm and would make for an interesting presidency for all concerned (practically, the entire world), but I agree with Jon Erickson. Besides which, Hillary attacked not only Obama but his political dream / plan as well. The other idea tossed around, about a Lincoln style circle of rivals, seems more likely, not to mention more agreeable to a lot of people. Btw, interesting analysis by Ana Marie (http://tinyurl.com/3unq33)

We need polls about this. How many people from the Hillary camp would vote for Obama with her as VP? How many Obama supporters? Independents? republicans?
- Alejandro
I'm hoping it's Richardson or Edwards. If only Gore had picked Edwards... But I digress. I hope it's not Clinton. She insulted me every step of the campaign. I've taken a lot of her comments personally. If Obama picks her, I'll still vote for them, but I sincerely hope it's not her. This isn't sexism. This is, "What the heck did she just say?"
- ha3rvey (sup homepants)
There's way too much Hillary hate among independents for this to work. He might as well attach a cement block to his leg.

Obama as president and Clinton as VP, be interesting if he's incapacitated for any reason
- Andy Davies
The problem is that it smacks of bribery and politics as usual. It will ruin his outsider image.

Am probably in a minority, but I don't think it's a good idea - I can't bare the thought of yet more hectoring from HRC
- Sally Church
from Alert Thingy
Would be interesting, HRC can play "The Heavy" for Obama
- James Clark
I still don't know about this. I think that Hillary on the ticket may undercut Obama's message of having a new kind of politics.
- Kevin Bondelli
The whoel thing has image problems anyway, Barack will only be the nominee because of party politics (super delegates) which already undermines his image. A flat our bribe to Hillary woudl not help.

Being an 'R' even I'd consider Obama, but absolutely not w/HRC along.
- Todd Jordan
If this were an actual blog post, I'd be inclined to pass it off as LINKBAIT.. but it's not, so I won't :) That said, given Obama's dominance of all things web - I find much of the recent FUD surrounding this specific meme to be precisely that - LINKBAIT FODDER.. the traffic and reactions are so off the charts that even highly respectable bloggers like Andrew Sullivan are getting in on the action. Sad =/
- Will DeLuca
OK... I disagree about 1. and 3., agree with 4. and 2. since I figure she'll accept the VP sot even if she's not offered it and insist on it.
- Chris Reed
"Barack will only be the nominee because of party politics (super delegates) which already undermines his image." What? He won more delegates, the popular vote and more states.
- Alejandro
I'm not agreeing with you on this one thing, Dave. I think the Edwards endorsement was well-timed and possibly was a pinky-promise for VeeP (imho).
- Chris Judson
from Alert Thingy
Apparently a lot of folks missed Edwards saying he absolutely wouldn't accept VP spot. I'd say there's a high probability of what you propose Dave. Ironically, I'm the example of a moderate Republican who would vote for the O/HRC ticket over McCain - but not O/someone else.
- Lucretia Pruitt
Thanks, Lucretia...here's the link for Edwards saying "No": http://tinyurl.com/5l4l8d . I suppose I was sort of wishing for what I actually liked in the 2004 race: Edwards w/o Kerry. I still have misgivings about HRC as Obama's campaign was about change for the old ways (e.g. McCain and HRC).
- Chris Judson
from Alert Thingy
I _really_ hope HRC isn't the VP nominee. Obama/Edwards would be a MUCH stronger ticket. I like Obama, but I'd have a harder time getting behind him with HRC as his runningmate.
- Chris Harrison
what about this scenario: HRC decides to run as an independent, splitting the democratic vote, and giving McCain the advantage. McCain has Romney as VP and wins. Four years later, McCain is 4 yrs older and HRC crushes him, winning the election. She stands a far better chance of winning against McCain than she does against Obama. I hope this isn't how it unfolds.
- shaun mclane
That would be a disaster. Hillary would constantly be defying him and going behind his back to push her own agenda.
- Mike Hussein Cohen
Obama picks Edwards? Good recipie for failure. Edwards is not a strong candidate.
