Title: Clinton-Biden Switch ‘On the Table,’ Woodward Says
Post by: Ralph Wiggum on October 06, 2010, 09:12:15 AM
Bob Woodward is the latest to add fuel to the Obama-Clinton 2012 ticket rumor. Chatting with CNN’s John King Tuesday, Woodward said Clinton switching jobs with Vice-President Biden is a possibility that is “on the table.” He continued, “Some of Hillary Clinton’s advisers see it as a real possibility in 2012.” Woodward didn’t stop there, adding that a Clinton-Biden swap could be a step toward Clinton eventually running for president in 2016: “Obama needs some of the women, Latinos, retirees that she did so well with during the [2008] primaries and, so they switch jobs, not out of the question, and the other interesting question is, Hillary Clinton could run in her own right in 2016 and be younger than Ronald Reagan when he was elected president.”

putting biden on the ticket was politically necessary to balance the utter inexperience of Teh One.  but now that the electorate has swallowed the obama campaign's line of crap, his constant insane statements make him more baggage than he is worth.

and axelrod probably remembers that she got more primary votes than he did in 2008, which is something that will have to be dealt with at some point.  a large portion of the hillaryites still have their panties in a wad over michigan and florida.

Why is it that when I think of Hillary as VP the only image that comes to mind is that Photoshopped pic of AF1 going down in flames?

I honest to God thought the same thing.  Obama would need a food taster if Hillary was 2nd in line to the Messiah throne.

I think this is the plan;

A ) Hillary as VP.
B ) Obama leaves after one term.
C ) Hillary runs in 2012 as an incumbent.

I feel that the Democrat newsies are quietly realizing that Obama blew it, and something needs to happen before '12 to keep the nasty teabaggin' rethuglikkkans out of the Oval Office - and getting 'Obama in a dress' is perhaps the easiest way to accomplish that goal.

Interesting line of thought.  But from what I have seen so far....  Obama is WAY too much in love with himself to not run again.  He lacks the ability to understand that others don't love him as much as he loves himself.

BJ Clinton suffered from the same disease to a lessor extent IMO.
