Clinton Offers Obama VP Spot on Democratic Ticket
AZCONSERVATIVE ^ | 15 March 2008 | John Semmens

Presidential candidate Senator Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) has offered Senator Barack Obama (D-Ill.) the opportunity to run with her as the Democrat’s nominee for vice-president. “Look, Barack is a nice boy,” Clinton observed. “I wouldn’t want to see anything bad happen to him. As my vice-presidential running mate he’ll be safe. And with a little seasoning under my administration, he might be a suitable presidential contender in another decade or so.”

Thus far, Obama has rebuffed Clinton’s offer. "I don't know how somebody who is in second place is offering the vice presidency to somebody who is in first place," Obama told supporters. "I’ve gotten the most votes. I’ve gotten the most delegates. Women faint in ecstasy when I speak. I’ve been called a messiah. The real question is whether the presidency is a high enough position for a man with my kind of talent.”

• “The past few days Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama and John McCain have all claimed that they are the person who should answer the phone at the White House if it rings at 3 a.m. Meanwhile, most Americans think the White House should just get a receptionist.” Conan O’Brien

Poll Indicates that Clinton’s “3 A.M. Phone Call” Ad May Backfire

While experts agree that Democratic presidential candidate Senator Hillary Clinton’s TV ad asking viewers who they’d want answering a 3 A.M. phone call at the White House may have been a key factor in her comeback wins in the March 4 primaries in Texas, Ohio and Rhode Island, polling data hints at possible trouble down the line.

Poll respondents expressing a desire that the person answering the phone be Hillary Clinton did out-number those preferring Obama by a two-to-one margin. Unfortunately for both candidates, the actual percentages were 8% for Hillary vs. 4 percent for Obama. Thirty-two percent said they hoped Republican presidential candidate, Senator John McCain (Ariz.) would be the one answering the call. Fifty-six percent said they would prefer that the answering machine took the call.

“I don’t think it’s a good idea for the president to have to take a 3 A.M. call,” said poll respondent Gene Stockman of Ohio. “He’d be groggy and apt to make a bad decision. It’s better to let the machine take the call. The president can pick up the message in the morning after he’s had a good night’s sleep.”

“Mostly, the government is likely to do something stupid,” said respondent Dan Savant of Texas. “The risk would be even greater if the president is jarred out of sleep. Delaying action until morning, or better still, never, might be less damaging.”
