Let’s say Hillary wins the nomination. Obama would be nuts to take the VP slot. With Bubba back in the White House as a de facto Co-President, all that Obama could look forward to for the next four years would be surfing for “real cool” websites on his office PC, catching up on his crossword puzzles, and periodically checking in with the White House receptionist to let her know he was still alive.
Better yet, given that Hillary roundly hates “Prince Precious,” I suspect she’d only let him come to the White House for Sunday teas “if, and only if, he shuts up, remembers his place, and, for God’s sake, doesn’t make eye contact with the white women.”
Furthermore, Obama would be insane to link up with Hillary–in a political sense, of course–since if her term is a disaster (I’ve got a sawbuck that says it would be), his presidential aspirations would be instant toast.
Nope, I suspect there will be no Hillary/Obama ticket come this summer. It’s certainly conceivable, but why would Hillary pick somebody who a) will constantly outshine her and b) might even stab her in the back with a primary challenge four years down the road?
Sooooo….does anybody think Obama would be stupid enough to loyally take it up the wazoo for Hillary in a dead-end job for eight, much less, four years? Make haste with your “Final Jeapordy” answers, please.
