I would think that he would think she is trying to force him into picking her.... You don’t do what she is doing in the open IMHO.

“Think this is BS”

Probably just a spin on an isolated comment to make Obama’s nomination “inevitable”

I bet tonight she says she’s going to the convention, but will fight a quieter battle for the superdelegates.

I believe the technical term for this is “arkincide.”

Yup. And it's been old for about the last 12 years.

What’s she supposed to say? In reality, she doesn’t want to be Veep. Obama doesn’t want her as Veep. It isn’t going to happen.

I am sure Michelle doesn't want hillary around but Barrack doesn't want bill around either. The DNC may have something to say about it too.

Like I said last night on a different thread - It's real simple.

She gets the VP slot - no trouble in Denver.

She does not get the VP slot - all hell breaks loose in Denver.

Pick your poison.

Yep, and the pope has admitted he is open to becoming an orthodox Jew.

My sense is BO is smart enough not to put himself in this situation.

With Hillary as VP, she’d have access to all the intelligence necessary to insure BO has an unfortunate accident. Even better (for her), once in control of the executive branch, she would control the investigation into his accident and the results of that investigation.

I imagine that’s something the founders didn’t envision...

Mrs. BHO has already nixed this. Nuff said! Hillary is just not going to go away quietly...this is just yet another opportunity to assert her victimhood.

If BHO wins she's out for 8 years.
If he loses, would did that do for John Edwards?

Uh oh...the last time a vacuous, mediocre first-term U.S. Senator chose a calculating, power-hungry politician as running mate, it didn't end well.

She says this now, knowing a tape will come out. So this makes her look like a good party member when all the time she’s got the long knives sharpening in the back room.

“if it would help the Dems win... .”

My arse. She’ll knock off Obama and get what she wants.

I’m kind of surprised she didn’t follow it up with some musings about JFK, and how you never know what might happen...
