I think Hillary really wants to be Obama's VP
She's campaigning for it now. That's what all this 'white" stuff is about. She's trying to convince Obama that he needs her and her white voters. If she was really trying to win, she wouldn't be doing that, because it is causing her to be an object of ridicule.

As early as Tuesday night, her surrogates wer begging for the VP spot on TV.

Now what Obama thinks about it is another thing.

3. Agree? Disagree?
Or just think it's too obvious to talk about? I have to admit that I am somewhat surprised that she is so obviously shilling for VP.

5. To the extent that that's true, *any* white person would serve. No need for Clinton specifically.

8. I'm not sure that Hillary's base would go for just any white
person. But then I'm not sure they're basing their vote on race either. I think, to a certain extent, this whole thing is manufactured.

7. If she actually does, she went about the wrong way of doing it.
Compare her possible attempt at trying to get the Veep slot to Tim Kaine's, who when asked about himself being Veep, suggested jim webb.
