3. It'll be Evan Bayh, I'll bet. He gave up his chance to be Prez for Hillary.

8. If so, having Bill intro him
will help Hillary for VP supporters get over it

12. I think that would be nice and fitting. The Clintons and the Bayhs have been close.

15. Bayh had a "chance to be Prez"????
Doesn't one have to win primary votes to do that?

18. He didn't run for a reason. I think the Clintons offered him something NOT to run.
That's my hunch only, I have nothing to support it.

19. My point is that I don't think he would have been a serious contender.
Richardson would have done better than Bayh, IMO.

20. I don't know that he would have, either--he and Edwards would have occupied
the same corner of the room, primary-wise.

5. I still think Hillary has a VP chance &, she'd be a bit more animated and reconciling that Bayh! n/t

7. Me too.
Maybe Bill will introduce Hillary. That would make sense.

6. Sounds about right.
I never doubted for a moment that B. Clinton would be speaking at the convention. It only makes sense that he does since he is our last Democratic president.

16. Depends on what she says...her "campaigning her heart out for Obama" has been
a little muted. If she gets up there and says what I think she's going to say, I don't think she'll be a hard act to follow.

17. I have no clue what you are talking about
But I have seen Clinton speak and each time she is moving and inspirational. I fear the ugly DU bias may be clouding your view.
