And I wouldn't want to be a rival getting in her way.She has a few rival alreadys, it may be a flooded primary for the dems in 2008 (she will still get the nomination).
Some dems have already teed off on her in raising funds (see Gov Warner).

I wouldn't put it past the Clintons to put together a secret deal to exchange a VP slot for access to his $$.I think she wants Bill Richardson for VP, he is one of them, and a clinton crony.
Warner is close to making ad blood with shots at her already.

No chance for George Allen to be the [R] nominee. Zero.

Why do you think that?
It seems to me he would be a natural heir to Bush.

Actually watching Allen speak has turned me off. Intellectually, he's channeling Dubya. Can't we get Cheney?

It would be illegal. First, as a running mate, this would be in the general election and they would have to decline federal financing. Much different than declining federal matching funds in the primary (I worked for Forbes in '96, the first time anyone had declined matching funds since Connelly did way back when.) Second, he would be second on a ticket and by virtue of that would only be able to give the legal individual limit to the ticket since it was not just him running.
For what it is worth, Forbes, who back in '96 was worth at least $500 million, would have taken the federal financing in the general, so I doubt that Marky Mark would even consider declining it given his relative pauper status.

No chance for George Allen to be the [R] nominee. Zero. I'll take that bet and wager a ticket the Inaugural Ball.
