Hillary Arm-Twisting For VP Spot?
If this report via Bloomberg via CNN is true, then it shows that Hillary's hard rhetoric of late about staying in the race and pushing for FL and MI delegates must be the public aspect of a private effort to leverage herself into the VP slot:
The two Democratic campaigns are talking about ways for
Clinton, from New York, to drop her bid for president that may
include joining the Illinois senator's ticket, CNN reported.
Talks are in a ``very preliminary'' stage and are described as
``difficult,'' the network said.

Good God, I hope not! I really think this would doom Obama's chances in the fall. Mrs. "53% disapproval rating", would be the antidote to his message of hope.

CLINTON: Communication # 05.20.08 - 04...[My Dear...]
"My Dear, Dearer and...Dearest supporters,
We all know I'm losing the race,
...but that's not a big problem, is it...!?!?
We'll just change the rules
to which I agreed to before the race,
...but obviously at the time I didn't know I would be losing now,
...so how can that count...!?!?
You agree with me...right...!?!?
And...those who don't agree are just sexist pigs."
-- Hillary Rodham Clinton
PS: Please send some more money to help me pay off the loans recurred by this effort and this little bitty debt forced upon us .

No! No! No!
Terrible idea.
Great way to turn a mass movement and potential political realignment into a run-of-the-mill boring-ass candidacy
