They will get away with it . Senator Tim Johnson is a perfect example of how an incapacitated DIM will hold their seat no matter what , and get away with it .

[khnyny]

This would make Hillary the “Sloppy Seconds” V.P. choice and would make Obami look like a complete dumb ass.

If he couldn't get this right the first time, what decisions will he make that will completely screw up the country?

There aren't any do overs in the Oval Office. God help us.

I concur.

Do you think BHO wants all that Clinton baggage?
The Kennedys hated LBJ but they needed him

Obama and Michelle want in bad enough they will do it--there isn't going to be a next time around

If Biden droops out for an asthma attack or such to let Hillery take #2, the Media will no more criticize Obama than the Pravda would criticize the Politburo in the old USSR, the Liberal Media serving the same role as it does.

This is goofy. It would end Obama’s campaign if this was done.

[Twinkie]

Oh, and it’s also like telling the wimmin, “LOOKEE HERE! ME, TOO! ME, TOO! I CARE about you womyn, too! SEE HERE!”

[uncbob]

I agree with you about Biden. I hate his politics, but there is something likeable about him.

Ain't nothing likable about any lying corrupt sleazy democrat in congress

[Neu Pragmatist]

With a compliant media , B.O. can get away with it .

Why Biden make such a dumb remark?

Because he didn’t wash his hands after shaking hands with McCain and caught the McCain Foot-In-Mouth disease?

[1035rep]

The problem is not Biden it’s Obama. Either way they lose.

13 mil of that debt is to herself. She can clear the other 7 mil in 2 years. AWB

She is still out 20 big ones

Her $$$$ raising capablity is gone She is damaged goods

The MSM will make her a nonperson and build somebody else up--They are Clinton weary

[forYourChildrenVote4Bush]

That is what me and my wife thought....

[Nathan Zachary]

"She is more than happy to watch him go down and take the nomination in 2012.AWB "

Exactly. That is the best she can do now. Make no mistake, Hillary and Bill are secretly hoping for Obama to go down.

The beast's only and last chance is to run against Palin in 2012. And that is only if she can convince a surgeon to stretch her face one more time.

This whole article is silly speculation which ignores all the rules why it just isn't possible this late in the game, and ignores Hillary s best political interests. Why would she even want to be VP for Obama? She'd end her career right then and there.

[norge]

If Obama loses, Hillary will start the 2012 campaign on Wednesday, the 5th.

[airborne]

It won’t happen.

Obama would look like a fool.

L0L! He already does, so this wouldn't really appear as much of a change.

And the media would spin it as an historic move by a brilliant strategist.

[arasina]

Unless it was planned this way from the beginning. (I know, tinfoil bigtime, pretzel reasoning.) They may have known Palin was being vetted for the McCain ticket (since February) but McCain wouldn't show his hand until after Obama made his selection. Now it would be Hillary vs. Palin in the VP debates, with Hillary being the "more experienced" one.

I would not put ANYTHING past the desperate Dims.

can't do it without the MSM and they are fed up with the Clintons

MSM will build somebody woman or black up for 2012

The way the MSM treated the Clintons in the primary is NOT going to change

[MaggieCarta]

LOL! Great pic. Thanks!
