WASHINGTON (AP) - Hillary Rodham Clinton has told congressional colleagues she would be open to becoming Barack Obama's vice presidential nominee, saying she would consider it if it would help Democrats win the White House. Clinton, a New York senator, made the comment on a conference call with other New York lawmakers Tuesday, according a participant on the call.

The senator's remarks came in response to a question from Democratic Rep. Nydia Velazquez who said she believed the best way for Obama to win over key voting blocs, including Hispanics, would be for him to choose Clinton as his running mate.

"I am open to it," Clinton replied, if it would help the party's prospects in November.

She went on to say that if Obama would agree to be her VP, his life expectancy could increase tenfold.

Is it just me, or does something smell about this announcement? Well, other than Barry and Hillary, of course.

If she is his VP, he will never survive it.

Shrillary is willing to sit one heartbeat from achieving/satisfying her lust for power.

How sweet.

Remember when, "Just Go Away, Clinton!" referred to Bill?

Aside from every other issue, you would have to immediately disqualify Obama from being President if he were foolish enough to choose Her Heinous as his running mate. No one with judgment that poor, and with that big a death wish, should be allowed in the same zip code as the White House let alone occupy it.

“In other news, Former President Bill Clinton has offered to take Sen. Barack Obama to Fort Marcy park for a celebration.”

Hillary, “If I can get Obama to Fort Marcy Park, I’d be his VP”.

He will never know when and where the bullet is coming from...

...as the years go by I become more and more convinced that Johnson was deeply involved in the murder of JFK...the Warren Commission report is a story for backward children.

...Barry, don’t do it. Find a white woman Governor.

I just don’t see this happening. I don’t think Michelle would sanction it. Yep, they would probably be assured a win with this combination...but dems are known for shooting themselves in the foot time and time again. On the other hand...could McCain be courting her for VP? The thought turns my stomach.

Psssst - Hey Obama.

It's me, Vince Foster. Remember me?

You sure you want this little lady a heartbeat away from YOUR Oval Office?

Why is anybody here believing a word coming out of either the AP or so called Hillary spokespersons?

Terry McCauliffe was just on TV saying it is not over.

This is just the media and a few Obama supporters trying to impact the last few primaries to take some votes away and maybe give Obama even ONE victory out of these last number of primaries.

I believe tomorrow HIllary will be as much in the race as she was two weeks ago.

Good Lord, just listen to the clap track coming out of the media! Obama is going to pay her campaign debts, Obama might ask her to be VP, Hillary has said privately she would like to be VP, Bill has said privately he thinks it is over; blah blah blah and blah.....

Do people think before they believe everything they hear and read?

The thought of her and Bill in the Veep house where our beloved Dick and Lynne Cheney now reside is about enough to get out the barf bag (big time! and you KNOW what I’m talking about)...
