Every poll showing McCain gaining on Obama increases the chances of him naming Clinton as his VP. I put on my tinfoil hat, but even with that fashion accessory, I could not decide if Clinton would rather take her chances on being VP...or if she would prefer to hold out for an Obama loss leading to another Hillary run in 2012.

I am just not up to speed on that tinfoil stuff.

this is why I am suspicious of these “magic polls”.

Obama is in a meltdown. Obama Nation has him rattled.

His piss poor performance has him nervous.

He is drowning and will grab the point of a sword to save himself.

This is all about lowering expectations.

Also if Obama picks hillary, it will potentially force mccain to pick “whoever” in a skirt.

I don't think BHO would even think of giving the nod to Hillary and Bill.

If he did, would she accept it? Don't you think the Clintons can sense that the ship is sinking? Do you really think she would go down with it?

Agree — I don’t think Hillary wants to be Obama’s VP and risk having to wait thru possibly 8 years for another chance to run for POTUS. I think she’d rather stay off the ticket and give it a go in 2012 no matter who wins this November. But that’s just my thinking.............
