Obama and Hillary, President and Vice President. Trying to be analytic.

I don't think Hillary Clinton ever dreamt about being Vice President. She's being toasted, now, for her fighting spirit, for her never say die quest for the White House, for the position of President. Not only didn't she fight like that for the job of Vice President but she scorned her Dem opponent's experience, she scorned her Dem opponent's ability to do the job, while saying right up to her very last speech that she considers herself the correct choice for President. That is, really, as absolute as it can get - campaign history doesn't describe someone that Obama would choose for VP. But wait, I spoke too soon - that isn't as absolute as it can get - fact is that Hillary not only didn't scorn John McCain's experience or his ability to do the job, she right out on the stump touted it.

Therefore Hillary Clinton isn't the correct choice for Barack Obama's VP -- and, of course, she won't be.

1. Fortunately, it's looking pretty unlikely.

Tuesday's non-endorsement pretty much sealed the deal I'm afraid. But I think she'd take it in a heartbeat if he offered it. I don't think she's looking forward to returning to the Senate.
