ANOTHER veep article! no.gif

http://www.usnews.com/articles/news/obama/2010/02/05/obama-could-dump-biden-for-clinton-as-vp-in-2012.html

Elevating Clinton to the vice presidential slot would accomplish several objectives: It would appeal to female voters and the still-powerful cadre of Clinton admirers, give Obama more of a pragmatic luster, and shunt the gaffe-prone Biden aside. And it would theoretically discourage Clinton, a former senator from New York, from challenging Obama in the 2012 primaries, Democratic insiders say, because as vice president she would be considered Obama's heir for 2016. Clinton would be 69 that year, the same age as Ronald Reagan when he won the presidency in 1980.

As for Clinton, she has said that she doesn't plan to serve as secretary of state longer than four years, but so far she has expressed no interest in another presidential run. She was the favorite for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008 but lost to Obama after a long series of primaries and caucuses.A White House strategist attributed the speculation about Biden and Clinton to "****tail party chatter" and said Obama is "very pleased" with Biden's job performance.

Besides if she had wanted that stupid job she would have it.  He would have given her the world for her delegates.  I am sick of the press acting like he did her such a favor.  Come on she only had 68 delegates less then he did.  He needs to wake up and smell the coffee.

I can see Pres.Obama wanting to do this.

I hope she does not take it up.. but I can see her taking it also for the sake of the country, and given her intense loyalty.

I really hope she takes a full break and runs for 2016.  I certainly would not mind Hillary on top of the ticket in 2012, however that happens! LOLbiggrin
