“Hillary refused to encourage an offer”
Not the same as saying “no”
Kudlow pressed Klein on whether an actual offer was extended and Klein was careful to say that Jarrett only asked Hillary whether she would be open to an offer.
Klein said that Barry did not directly make the inquiry to Hillary because Barry was certain that Bill would leak it.
Klein also said that even if Barry won, Hillary as VP would be tarred by Barry's extreme leftist policies and would be forced to defend them...far more, I suppose, than she has been in the post of SOS.
May have been told Barack would like to make her an offer if she would accept it, and she may have given Val a chance not to have to be told ‘no’ officially.
