Hillary's going to be the VP candidate.

Bank on it.

:nuke:
FAIL

Hillary should be nowhere near the Presidency this year. She wants it too badly.

Those who most crave power are most unfit to wield it.

Bank on that. She will be offered the spot and she'll turn it down.

Obama's way too smart to make that mistake.

Obama made the cornerstone of his campaign the rejection of status quo. Clinton is the epitome of status quo. Offering her the VP slot would be hypocrisy.

of being the VP than anybody else.

and I don't know why Obama supporters don't like it.

Clintons (both of them) breathing down your neck? I think not. She'll just attempt to act like she's really the President. What a headache that would be.

that alpha-male Bill combined with "two for the price of one" Hillary could be contained.
Bill has taken too much money from the gov't of Columbia, and etc. - it seems indiscriminately - and why would Obama's gov't want to be handling that kind of baggage? To say nothing of Obama's GE campaign being totally compromised on one of Obama's greatest strengths.

My intuition says that Hillary doesn't even want to be VP. That she wants to be POTUS or, since that's all but impossible in the short term, to continue clearing her own way, her own path. I've no doubt that she'll prosper.

NT!

nt

Chris Rock was right, Bush has made it impossible for a white man to run for president.

The Clintons fucked the American worker and that is the truth. Look at their bank account. Wake up to a new day!

you're wrong.

You guys forget that the Clintons saved the Democratic party from obscurity.

They're faithful democrats all the way.

they sure have a funny way of showing it. No thanks, no sale.

they're the best thing to happen to the Democratic party in 40 years.

and nominating judges that need to retire soon at the advice of Orrin Hatch is "the best thing to happen to the Democratic Party in 40 years."?

Sheesh!

NT!

taken seriously again?

basically held nowhere but at DU by a subset of people.

The voters arent that blind.

your prognostication could well be right, but who really knows? She may not want it. He may not offer it. We'll have to wait and see. I actually like the idea of her being on the ticket.

I'll get some serious shit. But, an unbeatable ticket. I'm on board.

She's been like a dog on a pants leg. I'd like to see that unleashed against mcsame/huckaboob or whoever joins that ticket (to hell).

Brings all Democrats together...from centrist to liberals.

Way better than Hillary.

Bank on THAT!

Not happening, sorry...

in oppositeland.

I hope she agrees to take something else.

It would be a disaster. All her lies, all the Clinton haters will rally against her.

They hate her more than Obama, but admire her fighting skills and whiteness. the two of them on the ticket thy would regard as evil + the lesser of two evils, with the evils the Reagan Dems regard being socialism and "coddling black people".

she wont have it. She is probably gearing for a 2012 run.

look weak.

At this point she needs to bow out gracefully and try to work on regaining her reputation.

duke

I could pay off Hillary's campaign debt. But mark my words, she shouldn't bank on it.

Republicans will still be assholes, Democrats will still be wimps and corporations will still run the country. The only thing that will change it is publicly financed elections and Obama is not interested in them whatsoever.

I hope not though.

Care to wager?

Yes *WE* can. :hug: :toast: :hug:

I like that!

:hug: :loveya:

If you're certain, that is.

Don't believe the '90s were the golden age of politics
You glorify the past when Hillary's future dries up.....

And to paraphrase Bill.....

We aren't building a bridge BACK to the 20th century.

Change now. DLC is history. Clintons are done.

The best fighter on earth . We should of locked this thing up two months ago. Could you imagine Hillary debating the repug VP? Fuckin think. Put the last months aside AND the animosity. Kennedy- Johnson? Even better!

Marry me!

:D

Methinks, this is our best shot!

I have to admit as an Obama voter, that the Bill Clinton years really sucked. Righto!

VP makes me want to barf, sorry! It is time for the Bush/Clinton Dynasties to be finished and anew day to be dawned!

The answer is that you can't be.

Now you're insisting that she'll be the VP.

She'll be neither.

Bank on it.

obama will chose someone who he trusts.

And her application will be VERY carefully considered.

:rofl:

:puke:

It might lift your spirits. :)

It isn't about how much certain (individual) Obama supporters like Hillary, or how much Obama likes Hillary(although I think Obama is as fine with her as any person would be at the end of a hard contest such as this)... it is about how much the 47% of the Democratic Party likes Hillary. Because almost half of the party voted for her. That's very split. We both have a common goal, you and I, because we both want to see Obama replace George Bush in the white house. We want to make history with this election, and doing so is a serious matter. So I think we should be very serious about what it will take to get us to that goal. I honestly believe that Hillary as VP will do a lot of good towards uniting the party in Nov. I think that ticket will be unbeatable. This is NOT like any other election in history. This is NOT like any other primary in history. A shocking amount of people have come out in favor and love of Hillary.

Even Obama recently said that Hillary is on his short list for VP. OVER half of the democratic party wants hillary for VP and almost half of Obama's supporters (according to polls) would be okay with her as VP. We need to do what is going to get us the most votes from these people who desire this so that you and I can both be so, so, so happy in November!

:hug: for all of DU :hug:

edit to put in link to Obama's statement on May 9th.

:)

has a snowball's chance in hell of being VP. DEAL WITH IT.

Put aside the competitive juices for one second. First, name Bill ambassador to Eritrea. Second, admit it- Hillary is as tough as nails.

:shrug:

but I'm all good with that....
:shrug:

If our party leaders are as smart as I hope they are, then that choice would be a no brainer.

Hehehe

We could use conventional weapons but that would take many years and cost many lives. No, I have a better idea....

end up

:9

realizing the math.

I'm not going to bank on it but the fact that quite a few of you have resigned yourself to her taking the VP spot means you know it is over for her. I'll go ahead and take that little bit of news.

And people told JFK not to go to Dallas.

yeah yeah... technically the VP has to be confirmed by the delegates at the convention, but it is very rare for the delegates to overturn the candidate.

hold together the Democrats - and that's the first priority. Forget appealing to independents/disaffected Republicans - if we don't even have our own party in line, none of those other considerations matter.

He may have said 'No', but I bet otherwise.

I think there are a couple candidates who would help Obama a bit more in the general, but I'd be happy to vote for an Obama/Clinton ticket.

And of course she'd make a very competent VP.

Hillary as VP has to contantly be in a subservient role to Barack Obama?

Check your fuckin egos at the door. Raw wounds- yep! I'm a stalwart Obama voter. Hillary Clinton-admit it- is the toughest we'll ever see. She's pissed me off to the point of hating her. But, that's where it lies. Man. You have to admire the shit!

Whether we like it or not.

Never gonna happen. Keep dreaming.

No one EVER lied in politics. Christ, Larry Craig is still a senator!

Maddy seems to be satisfied with Hillary as VP.

That shows at least some inroads towards unity.

Where's that frog?

Bank on it.

It's not about them, it's not about how cool they think they are. It's about America, and the world beyond. It's time for Obama supporters to stop being childish.

Her behavior in this campaign has made her a running joke. The republicans will laugh all the way to the White House.

Only of McInsane will ask her!!!
