Joe Biden was on TV and asked if he would be Hillary's VP if asked. He said definitely not, and in some ways expected that Bill Clinton would be the VP, either literally or figuratively, and a VP would have no role under her administration.

I wonder if she chose Bill as VP if that would make people more likely to vote for her or less. I donno.

I don't blame Biden.

Who wants to be the Nikita Khrushchev to her Josef Stalin?

I can see it now - Hillary takes her shoe off and starts pounding it on the table... high heels fly....

She'd never take her shoes off in public. She doesn't want to show her cloven hooves.

My guess would be Evan Bayh

Wow, this thread is win. I am going to abstain from guessing, I have absolutely no clue.

Ok I lied, i'll take a stab.

Ouch his comments are a rather stinging hit to any possible Vp.."Hey chump you going to be nothing more then the crap catcher for Bill and Hillary"..............as well as a nasty jab at Hillary.

Biden often suffers foot in mouth disease as well as wishy washy convenient position taking but every once and a while he pretty much nails the reality...and in this case I think he has nailed a reality of any Hillary Presidency (as malodorous as that veyr idea may be) pegged.

"Malodorous"? Great word....

Yeah, that'll be it, at the voting booth, right? "Here, pull my finger"....

It occurs to me, that Edwards might be a good choice for Hillary.

Edwards has "roughly the same view" to healthcare, that Hillary does.

She could keep him busy that way, and he could do something useful too, and he'd probably be "decent" at it 'cause he understands the space (having "practiced" there ) - and that way he'd be busy enough so he'd be "out of the way" for Hillary - and he'd also be "being groomed" for when Hillary leaves office.

So... that's my guess.

A ticket with two northeast libs? Little chance.

Not Edwards, he's already been tried. Couldn't win his home state.

Bayh is a good choice. Red state, Indiana. Plenty of experience, governor and senator. Known but not too well-known.

Durbin not so much. Illinois is a strong blue state, isn't it? Kinda be thumbing her nose at their other Senator.

No way she's giving up the spotlight to Obama.

Richardson is gunning for it. His state went barely red in 2004 but only worth 5 electors. He does help bring the Latino vote, but she's liable to take that for granted anyway.

I kinda think she'll pick a governor we've hardly heard about. Somebody like Ted Strickland from Ohio or Tim Kaine of Virginia. Someone who will follow orders and bring in their home state's electors.
