Hillary Clinton's V.P. prospects dimming?

She is too experienced, too popular, too smart and was and still is the best candidate for President! Therefore Obama, Mr. EGO, will not choose her.

Thank God.
Maybe now we'll finally be rid of the Clinton blight on the Democratic party.

Let's face it, Vice President Bosnia Betty just doesn't sound very, well, Democratic.

Why would any Presidential candidate choose someone for a running mate who has made no secret of the fact that they want the top job and would go to any lengths to get it?

That is just plain silly

Obama's arrogance trumps all. He actually believes the hype he's selling and believes he can do it all by himself. The sound of 200,00 screaming Germans has gone to his and . Sounds like he has a touch of megalomania.

Amen to that.

It always was his to lose. Every move so far has been to distance him from the chances of winning. The only chance of having a Democrat in office is to have the Super Delegates switch to Hillary and put her in front. Obama has been low in the polls and for what? For an old decrepit man that can’t remember whom our enemy’s are? That is an out right shame.

She is too experienced, too popular, too smart and was and still is the best candidate for President! Therefore Obama, Mr. EGO, will not choose her.

-->> This is a nice way of saying that she wouldn't shut up long enough to share the leadership. How many pictures of her have you seen where she did not have her mouth open, yelling, and a scorn on her face. She did herself in.

totally agree on that. Mr. Arrogant's policies aren't as good as hers. making so many promises, I really wonder how many he can really keep when he has broken a few of them already. I truly believe someone who's reluctant to make promises is more responsible than someone who can easily make so many HUGE promises. even being a normal citizen, it's hard to keep some of our pointless promises. but his fans (not supporters) will stand by him regardless whatever excuses he gives, because they are like a bunch of people unconsciously supporting a rock star.

this is gonna be a fun show again.. america elected bush 4 and 8 years ago.. now, they are making another stupid mistake by electing Mr. Arrogant.

I would like to see Obama make a decision on his VP based on what is good for the nation, not himself. Hillary is clearly the best choice because not only is she the best qualified but with her on the ticket Democrats are pretty much assured a win.

I am not going to vote for him or make any donations, if she is not a VP.
Hillary supporter.

And.....if Obama picked Hillary, remember she would bring Bill along with her. Now, that's really scary.

Hillary Clinton on the ticket would insure John McCain's election. People just don't like the Clintons. Too many lies.

As a Canadian, I love the US, but I can't get over how eager Americans are to throw mud at people who disagree with them... even slightly! They're both Democrats, folks, and if you can't get past the mud-slinging and in-fighting, your Republican friends will walk away with the Presidency as one big happy, greedy, overprivileged, war-mongering, small-minded religious family!

And Chris, you hypocrite, has Barack made any secret of the fact that he wants the top job and would go to any lengths to get it???

Hillary is better off not being VP -- that way when Obama sinks like a rock (whether as president or loser of the presidency) she will not need to burden the blame (as she surely would) for this Hollywood incarnation.

Hillary is better of not being VP. That was when NObama sinks like a rock (whether as president or presidential loser) she won't burden the blam (as she surely would) for this Hollywood incarnation.

I agree with "She is too experienced, too popular, too smart and was and still is the best candidate for President! Therefore Obama, Mr. EGO, will not choose her."

If Obama picks Hillary, Bill will also be in the White House and that would set a great tone for this nation. Years of experience and leadership in the White House is exactly what this country needs!

My dislike of Obama is starting to turn to a stronger dislike. He is so arrogant acting like he is president already. The Hilary has been treated by him, dnc and the media is just too much. Now they nowt her to eat crow and give all these speeches for Obama as if she is not suppose to have hur feeling. I wish she would refuse to do anything for him and the democratic party. He want even give the Vp althought he knows she qualified. I'm am totally disgusted with this whole process, a rock star as president.

I am a life time democrat and this will be the first time I will not be voting at all as I don't agree with McCain policies and I just don't trust Obama that he will deliver whatever promises he is making. They are more or less speech "points".
I am hoping that he does what he promises and IF he does ... I will vote for him on his second term.
So democratic party will have one less vote this time.

if Hillary was so qualified so did a poor job convincing the rest of us that she was..I'm sick of this Bush/Clinton white house dynasty that's been going on for 20years..you idiots can't think unless a Bush or Clinton is doing it for you..you are so deceived and should not be allowed to reproduce for your lack of brain power.congenital idiots,may goodness help you and if you wish to punish yourself further by voting for Mcbain because Hillary lost; you're childish and a complete looser.when you loose your home or your job to outsourcing you'll deserve it for your stupidity..grow up.there's one road to victory right now and it's Barak Obama..no remnants of the the Bush era.they must go..

I never thought Hillary Clinton should be Barack Obama's VP choice. She would be demeaning herself, and all the women who supported her campaign.

My vote goes to the Green Party candidate even though I know it is a wasted vote.
Never in my wildest dreams could I ever vote for Barack Obama.

I have direct word from a highly reliable internal Obama campaign source that he's picking Caroline Kennedy as VP. The reasoning is that if Cheney could pick himself as VP then why can't Caroline. It's payback for Teddy endorsing him early on in the race and ditching the Clintons.

PUMA

Come on D's, way to go, shoot yourself in the foot (again?). If Nader can't do it, and we don't have Hanging Chads this time, what better way of giving us all McSame than infighting it out until still another bitter end?

you people with the "obama makes too many promises" are idiots. Try getting your head straight and listening and comprehending what he has to say. There is a difference between the two you know.

Obama has not promised miracles. He has promised to stand up for the people and not the corporate interest. He has said time and time again that he can't do it by himself. Everyone will have to help. this is americas problem we only want someone who is going to come in and not want anything from the people. He is going to be a president, not a saint. We are so complacent and lazy and refuse to take responsibility for our own actions, and fight at the mere mention of it.

I am most concerned about what is happening in The Obama Camp and believe that we have lost the race again for the Whitehouse.
His Advisor Group are all self serving also, and I am concerned about the bad advice he is getting.
This arogrant appearing OBAMA needs Hillary more than ever on the ticket for it to be a success.
Rebublicans look to be the choice for a lot of Democrats including myself, unfortunately. I don't believe Mc Cain is the one to run the Country. I fear for our long stay in Irac, and the economy, if Republicans are re-elected.
Like so many now, maybe I also will stay away from the Poles.
What a tragedy for the Democratic Party. I weep!

IF MR KNOW IT ALL DOESNT PICK HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON AS HIS RUNNING MATE. ITS ALL OVER FOR HIM HE LOSES. STAY TUNED. HE IS IN HIS LAST 13 WEEKS OF FAME. ENJOY IT OBAMA. YOU CANNOT WIN WITHOUT HILLARY. IN MY WILDEST IMAGINATION I JUST WISH AT THE CONVENTION THE DELEGATES SUPER AND STATE WOULD CHANGE THEIR MIND AND VOTE TO MAKE HILLARY THE CANDIDATE FOR THE DEMOCRATS. THEY CAN CHANGE THEIR MIND ANYTIME. DO THEY WANT TO WIN OR WHAT? ITS OVER WHEN OBAMA PICKS HIS RUNNING MATE. A VERY DEVOTED SUPPORTER AND DONATOR OF HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON. NEVER GIVE UP HILLARY. ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.

So all the folks who previously thought that Obama was weak, effeminate and incapable now think he is arrogant because he exudes confidence that he can be a good President and because he pulled off a trip abroad with aplomb.

Come on people! Relieve your stress by simply acknowledging what is true about Obama, even if you disagree with his policy positions.

For he is a gifted politician; he is unafraid to be President of the United States; he is extremely intelligent; he is a marvelous writer; he is a great speaker; he does inspire people to work together; he truly inspires, in many people, optimism for the future; he is fearless and cool when under pressure; he is mindful of but unafraid to confront the dangers that we may face in the future; he listens and thinks well; he is a realist with an idealist’s optimism; he is a proud American; he will fight when he must; he acknowledges his imperfections; he really loves his family; he truly believes in God.

All of these facts are displayed right before all of our eyes, but some of us are either blind or have deliberately chosen to put binders on. But this is okay because what God has ordained will be. So go ahead and vote for Senator John McCain, an honorable American hero, because voting for John McCain will not diminish who Barack Obama is: a good man who believes he can, as President, help solve the problems of this country.

who are these people?
Americans or Hillaritites??...somebody help me........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dave, they are a lost cause.

McCain should just cross the aisle again and take Hillary for his VP and deal a crushing blow to the dems

you obama supporters make me sick. "he'll solve the problems of our country." If your toilet is clogged, you call a plumber; if your car transmission dies, you go to mechanic. If the nation is in trouble, you call an inexperience "good man" to solve its gigantic problems. Gosh, that WILL be another four years of BUSH.

i am going to vote for mccain if hillary is not picked for VP

I think that Hillary should be the VP and let Ted Kennedy drive her to pick up the honor by way of Lake Chappaquiddick.

Experience without intelligence and wisdom is empty, To be-X Democrat. In President George W. Bush you had a deficit in experience, wisdom and intelligence. Take off the blinders and you will recognize this and also how quickly Obama learns.

Despite his political inexperience, which is a legitimate critique, Obama possesses the ability to evoke and receive wisdom. The man is extremely bright and wise; ask the Clintons.

Some people are betting that he will make the same mistakes President Bush made, but that can only happen if Barack Obama and George W. Bush possess the same weaknesses. This, however, is a belief that is devoid of insight and intelligence. Obama vastly eclipses both Bush and McCain in intelligence and wisdom.

That would be the stupidity of Barack Obama and the Democratic Party... They might as well give up their chance at winning this election.. The election is much closer than they and the media thinks... Mrs. Clinton will be the certain reason of why Obama will lose this election... They should really wake up from what dream that they are in....

Mark the date. This is the beginning of the end of the Obama campaign. Maybe the Republicans are right - no judgement. He cannot win without her. You know, his message is change. If the first woman Vice President, carrying 18 million votes in the primary is not change, then nothing is. He is writing off half of the Democratic party! Kissing us goodbye! Especially if he chooses another woman. What a slap in the face! Bye Bye Bama...bye bye whitehouse:( Suzanne

It is very selfish for so-called Democrats to give away the election to John McCain because Hillary Clinton was treated unfairly by the media (among other inane reasons). What an irresponsible way to make a point.

Ask yourself: Do you think that Senator Clinton is going to vote for John McCain? Do you think that she would have picked Obama to be her running mate? Do you really think that our country can handle four more years of Republican rule? (Obviously, your plan is to vote again for Clinton in four years.)

I am sorry that some of you feel we should waste another four years of our lives, with bumper stickers declaiming "Clinton 2012". Let's elect a Democrat NOW, and if a Hillary Clinton presidency is meant to be, it could also be in 2016.

If senator clinton is not on the ticket senator obama will not win.....I know that sounds simplistic - but I believe it is what will happen.

Are there always this many trolls on the Boston.com web site echoing Fox News/Karl Rove talking points? I'm a strong Hillary supporter who will be very disappointed if she isn't selected, but I can respect Obama if he decides to go elsewhere and I'll be helping his campaign as we get closer to November.

Leon, you are such an admirer of Obama. Do you know him, or is your impression mostly based on his TV ads and appearances? I agree that McCain and Bush are rather mediocre people, but so is Obama. The intelligent candidate is Hillary, as Bill Clinton said time and again. Mitt Romney has colleagues and Harvard classmates claiming that they have always been in awe of his intelligence. Has any of Obama's former colleagues at Harvard said he is intelligent? Or do you hear that only from some very mediocre people such as those neighborhood politicians in the Chicago South side? Furthermore, he is so inexperienced that he stutters when details answers to questions are called for. He still hasn't had the nerve to debate McCain. His panel of experts probably told him he's not ready for it.

I don't think Hillary should accept the VP position even if Obama offered it. She has nothing to gain from it. I hope the DNC will come around and still put her on the ballot and let the delegates vote their conscience at the convention.

I will vote for McCain even though I don't think he is a good candidate. But the other candidates aren't really viable and only serves to dilute McCain's votes. It is my greater goal to make sure that Obama doesn't win. Obama as President would be disastrous to our country. It also sends a bad message to our youngsters that the President is just a talking head, who travels around to give tall speeches.

You must think I am a nerd as I write comments and they never appear. I am a life long R but cannot vote for mcCain unless he selets someone like Romney.
Hillary and Bill have too much baggage. The country would never vote for that ticket.

Beth, Obama is going to be a bigger disaster than McCain. That's why we should vote for McCain. Hillary will run again in 2012, not 2016!

I can't believe some of these absolutely ridiculous posts. What a waste of time spent reading them. What's unreal is that these are the folks who will be casting ballots in November...scary.

A majority of African Americans both male and female supported Hillary Clinton in her 2000 and 2006 NY Senate races including me. A majority of African Americans male and female supported Hillary Clinton in her Presidential race, including me. Up to the point her husband unleashed the Southern Strategy in South Carolina with the consent of Hillary Clinton.

Unfortunately, they both still thought it was 1992 or 1996. They totally misread the mood and temperament not only of African Americans, but also the entire country. The racial insinuations and cultural disrespect against people of all ethnicities, attempts to play men vs. women, Black vs. White, Black vs. Latino, Black vs. Asian, working class vs. middle class, blue collar vs. white collar, Muslim vs. Christian, senior citizens vs. college students, all of it backfired. A house divided against itself will not stand. HRCs coalition borrowed from nostalgic remembrance of her husband's presidency fell apart after she macheted through it.

The ugly, baiting behavior brought out the worst in everyone around them and revealed the deepest ills running underneath American society. Everyone who ever dealt with bullying, abusive behavior on an individual level became sick to their stomachs watching the tactics used against Barack Obama and by extension, Michelle Obama. It was instructive and eye-opening. This is why so many people who might have voted for HRC, McCain, or Nader immediately coalesced around Obama.

Slowly, HRC lost the support of her colleagues, her friends (who either endorsed Obama or remained neutral rather than endorse HRC), young white men and women, Latino men and women, African American men and women, and others who recognize unacceptable behavior and decided to punish it.

I am deeply disappointed that HRC drove her campaign into the dirt, but I am thankful the electorate did not allow Hillary Clinton to take the United States down into the dirt with her.

For all of those Dems who supported Clinton, if you think that voting for McCain is a solution, please think again. If you supported Clinton's agenda, policies and hope for our country, then you should vote Obama. Stop pouting. Voting for McCain is to vote for 4 more years of Bush and then some. Not only will be in war for the next 100 years, our daughters will lose the right to choose (McCain said that he will fight to get rid of Roe vs. Wade. McCain also wants to take away all of the slow gains from Affirmative Action by abolishing it. He already said that he will appoint additional conservative Supreme Ct. Justices. And, we could go on and on about the rich getting richer and the rest of us struggling, jobless, housing crisis etc. For all of you who supported Hillary, do you really think that she supports McCains agenda. As someone said before me, she will not be voting for McCain.

I honestly don't think you are thinking clearly if you would rather vote McCain than Obama, if you were a Hillary supporter. It's irrational.

obama . . please pick hillary!! This way, I can watch the democratic party go down in flames! I'm not a big McCain supporter, but frankly, obama is a chump. However, I would rather have the devil himself in office than clinton and her philandering, maniacal husband.

OK All you Hillary supporters who vote for McCain
I supported Hillary too. But how will you explain your support for this wolf in sheep's clothing to your children and your grandchildren when he fills the Supreme Court with radical right wing zealots who gradually erode your civil rights.
Your call!

Women needs to be treated equally in America! Some men are cowards, they step on their own counterparts to achieve fame! Give Us Hilary or Give Us Equality! Supporting Hilary since the dawn of time!!!

Together, baggage and all, an Obama/Clinton ticket seems unstoppable. There will be meddling from Billary. There may also be the risk of conscious and unconscious sabotage, in the hope that Barack loses and Hillary gets one more shot in 2012. And there’s still the ugly possibility that whatever provoked her to refer to RFK’s tragic demise is still lurking in her ultra-complex cranium.

Still, paradigm changing events take time and are not comfortable. I’ve heard a number of very bright people use the “marathon” analogy to describe the Dems ‘08 nominating process. Respectfully, they’re wrong. Compared to the time it took to transform a scruffy bunch of oppressed English colonies into America, the primary season was barely a quarter mile race.

Having the first black American president, and everything it would mean both to the citizens of this country and to the world community, as well as what it would indicate about this country to the world community, is paradigm changing. It’s also got the potential to be paradigm restoring, given the surreal nose-drive we’ve taken since Dubya ran the greatest power in the world into the ground.

Our economic power, our military power, and our power to do good works have taken a serious hit. Expecting McCain to do anything but temporarily soothe a wounded nation is living with blinders on.

Obama/Clinton. Won’t be easy. Nothing worth doing is.

nice one,and good news too

Okay, BostonAgainstObama, let’s take on your challenge. In a 2007 Harvard Crimson article, Harvard Law Professor David B. Wilkins, who taught Obama at HLS, said that Obama was a “brilliant, charismatic, and focused” student. In the same article, Harvard Law Professor Laurence Tribe, who also taught Obama at HLS and is considered a preeminent constitutional law scholar, said that Obama was “brilliant, personable, and obviously unique” as an HLS student. Tribe, a brilliant mathematician and physics student as a Harvard undergraduate, also said that Obama’s “theoretical perspective on applying modern physics to law was ‘very impressive’.”

Now I think the word “brilliant” carries a lot more weight than the word “intelligent,” especially when such a word is used by brilliant Harvard Law School professors to describe a former student.

And you are wrong about Romney, he graduated Cum laude, not Magna cum laude, which is the higher academic distinction that Chief Justice Roberts and Barack Obama achieved at HLS. However, of the three, only Barack Obama served as President of the Harvard Law Review.

Finally, I have no personal relationship with the very intelligent Barack Obama, but I am a very serious and able student of American history.

IT WILL BE SO STUPID NOT TO PICK HILLARY FOR VP, WHAT IS WRONG WITH EXPIRIENCE AN INTELLIGENCE.AND COMMON SENSE. HILLARY FOR VP

Hey PUMA. MCCAIN HATES HILLARY CARE. Didn't you hear? IDIOTS. LOL You guys are the laughing stock of the nation.

Hillary would be the kiss of death for Obama. All you so called PUMA freaks need to get a life . Most of you are Republicans anyway. PUMA is the biggest joke in political history.

I am an objective person but the bottom line is: He won't win without her. LET THE EGO GO BARACK....

Why not break a few more "historical" barriers by having the VP selection also give the keynote speech. It would surely be fitting to see that happen with Hillary giving the keynote and then being given the VP nod. It would certainly, without a shred of doubt, put Obama in the White House. McCain wouldn't stand a chance against that ticket - even with a fired up GOP base....

No Hillary on the ticket,
Nobama
It's that simple...
McCain will get my vote.

Dave said it all. I will add just one additional comment. How in the world did the Democrats get in this position? Obama is probably a pretty smart fellow and in a few years, may be a good choice but what makes him one now with so little experience? I hate to vote Republican but without Hillary on the ticket, I believe many will do the same thing. Whether it is the smart thing to do or not, it is my choice and we still have that right. I just wish McCain were the man he was in 2000!

In case no one is paying attention, Obama holds a very slim lead over McCain. He needs a VP choice who will energize the ticket. Clinton is the appropriate choice. She would energize the ticket, and increase his margin substantially. She has the experience he lacks, and their platforms are much the same. She has a reputation for being able to work not only with Democrats, but also across the aisle, to make things happen--which is basically what she is trying to do now to rally support for Obama. But Obama needs to remember one thing more. He is making history by being the first Black to run for president. If he doesn't have a woman as a running mate, he is closing out the chance for a woman to run for president or vice-president for at least 8 years if he wins and is re-elected, and possibly much longer. Would he deny a much-earned opportunity to a particular woman, or to women in general? Will he reach out to women? I don't think many Clinton supporters will vote for misogynistic McCain. A lot will just choose not to vote at all in their hurt and disappointment, their yearning for recognition. And what a slap in the face it would be for a woman other than Hillary to be chosen. Obama, how about a little common sense and affirmative action here? You've touted yourself as an agent of change, of being noble and generous. Affirmative action is change. Sharing the spotlight is being noble and generous. Personally, I will not vote for Obama unless he chooses Hillary as a running mate. Otherwise, I will write her name in on the ballot. If McCain is smart, he will choose Colin Powell as his running mate, a Black with a huge amount of experience and respect, and split the Black vote.

you people are RIDICULOUS! obama is arrogant?? what? youve gotta be kidding me. and to the democrats that choose to vote McCain when hillary is NOT selected VP, shame on you. This is about getting the party back in the office, not about your individualist obsessions with Hillary.

How can anyone even consider voting for McCain? Another 4 more years of failed Busch policies? Lets get real here. I would love to see clinton getting the VP but if she doesn't we must rally around Obama bight our tongues and vote Democratic or else be prepared for another 4 years of our civil rights disapering even more!

You Hillary supporters who wont vote for Obama are THE BIGGEST JACKASSES ON THE PLANET...Mccain is pro-life, a warmonger and basically the exact opposite of clinton, but your morons would vote for him over Obama because you think hes arrogant?

Get out of here

Obama is very out of touch by thinking he can carry the election without Hillary. He recently said his chief advisors are his grandmother and his wife. It's too bad that he didn't listen to the 18 MILLION Hillary supporters. That would have been a ticket worth voting for. I believe there will be many Hillary supporters who will just not vote or worse, cast WRITE-IN VOTES FOR HILLARY which will end up being a vote for McCain...at this point what Obama fails to see is WE DON'T CARE ANYMORE whether its Obama or McCain---neither one is all that great or all that bad. You blew the dream ticket Obama,

Laura and others, I totally agree with you. I always wanted a Hillary/Obama ticket or a Hillary/Biden ticket. Had HRC been nominated, she would have had Obama on the ticket--that was the dream ticket. She's more experienced, smarter, can handle the attacks.

I'm sincerely heartbroken because we had a chance to change things in Washington...I predicted McCain would choose a woman--he wasn't able to reach many female voters and also to reinforce his "maverick" image. But is it too late? Could Biden call in sick or something and Hill could take his place? He's too tentative in interviews. People fell in love with the idea of him, not him.
