Hillary for Vice President? The movement is gaining traction.

As President Obama sinks in the polls, Democrats and liberal pundits inevitably are searching for a scapegoat. The most likely victim appears to be gaffe-prone Vice President Joe Biden, who has become the focus of speculation that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton just might replace him on the 2012 Democratic ticket.

Former Virginia Gov. Doug Wilder, his state's first African-American governor, touched off the controversy. Writing at Politico.com last week, Mr. Wilder argued that Mr. Biden's tenure has been undistinguished and chock full of "too many YouTube moments." He charged that Mr. Biden "has continued to undermine what little confidence the public may have had in him."

No, the only way would be for Obama to put her on the Supreme Court. THAT is the only way that could possibly ensure she would not run against him.

If she was smart, she’d take it, get on the Supreme Court, then decide to run for President anyway. Her resume would be extremely unique. First ‘Lady’, Senator, Secretary of State, Supreme Court Justice, now gunning for President.

He charged that Mr. Biden "has continued to undermine what little confidence the public may have had in him."

I have yet to see a poll on the public's 'confidence' view of Biden - but we have seen MANY of the confidence level towards Barry. When Barry is the KNOWN failure - point to someone else to take the heat off. Liberal tactic.

Having confidence in any liberal and one is already off to a bad start.

“There were several threads the last few days about a purported spat between Michelle and Biden’s wife..a cat fight..supposedly they can’t stand each other..”

I seem to remember something about Michelle hating Hillary as well. I imagine she’s even more pi$$ed off now, seeing as how she wasn’t on the guest list for the “wedding of the century.” (Jim’s w)

So who is it you want to run as President in 2012?
Being that you chose to insinuate I am dumbed down,
with no other thoughts to the discussion...
I am left to assume you are a cheerleader for another candidate?

Why did you tell me to have a nice life? Did you mean this literally or with I disgust you, thick sarcasm?

It has nothing to do with Biden because he has not been involved in anything of substance. How stupid do they think we are?

EXACTLY! But we must remember - they are talking to their clueless audience hoping they would think, "OH, Barry's not the problem, duh! it's Biden". And this will give them a renewed hope WITH change.

God help us!

Exactly! Hillary wants women votes to break down the glass ceiling with her radical Obama-like politics.

The Clinton’s used to run the show and won’t settle for 2nd place. Hillary’s been putting up with zero’s crap as Sec. State, don’t think she’d stomach being his lap dog.

Hillary for vice-president? Hasn't she been there, done that already?

If Hillary is on the Donk ticket in 2012, it will be in the top slot, having beaten Baraka-caca in the primary.

I don’t see Jindal/Haley happening. Two southern governors?? The northerners won’t go along if there isn’t a northerner on the ticket.

Palin/Jindal could happen because both have pretty high profile name recognition. Palin certainly does and she is a conservative favorite. Jindal is getting the name recognition thanks to the BP oil spill and zero’s non-handling of it.

Bachmann & Haley in cabinet positions would be a good choice.

If I were Hillary I’d tell him no. It would be nuts for her to ruin her career on Obama and I am surprised that she is still the SOS.I feel that in the nexct months if she is planning to challenge Obama is 2012 she will “retire” go have some more cosmetic surgery done and then reemerge in time to challenge him for the nomination if Howard Dean doesn’t do it first.

I think Hillary's confidence was somewhat shattered when she didn't get the nomination. The Golden Girl is not used to losing and I think she is still scarred.

I don't know. JMO but I would go with pizzed off instead of scarred. A whole lot of people abandoned her camp to go with the golden boy during late spring 08. Many like Bill Richardson and the Swimmer, people she in which she invested a lot of trust. I would assume she has a "list" of people that need a whooping.

From where the hildabeast stands, why not run? The party will get mad-so what? You might lose and that is the end of the road? So what? She is not getting any younger and by 2016 she will have morphed into something not too dissimilar to Helen Thomas.

2008 was not to be. Even after the Rev Wright tapes were leaked, she still could not finish zero off. I suspect that she held some ammo and we might yet see that BC or something equally damaging sometime in late 2011. I will bet that she is reviewing the tapes on the dem 1980 primary campaign and addressing errors that Ted K made. It would be sweet revenge for her if she manage to do what he could not and wrest the nomination away from a sitting president. After we rack up some big wins in Nov, this is going to be the show to watch.

she will become the VP candidate, then mysteriously O-marx’s real birth certificate will turn up, then he will drop out, and she will become the presidential candidate.
