Is it too late to make Hillary his VP?
Read these statements from Biden.
Biden: Hillary might have been better VP pick
Joe Biden told supporters at a town hall Wednesday afternoon that Barack Obama might have been better off choosing Hillary Clinton as his running mate.
“Make no mistake about this, Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice president of the United States of America. Let’s get that straight,” Biden said testily when a voter told Biden he was glad the Delaware senator had been chosen and not Clinton.
“She’s a truly close personal friend and she is qualified to be President of the United States of America, she’s easily qualified to be Vice President of the United States of America and quite frankly it might have been a better pick than me,” he continued.
"I mean that sincerely, she’s first rate.”

of course. i think that may be a backup plan. if he's losing in the final weeks. have biden back out for personal reasons, and put clinton on the ticket as VP.
think about it. the far-right wouldn't have time to bash hilary in the press for all her luggage and bill's connections and issues. Instead, it'd be "Hi shallow idiot women voters who only select a candidate based on sex organs - I came to my senses"
And a lot of Palin voters would jump right to his bandwagon. It's entirely possible.
*oooh i just noticed Intrade.com has a 7.6% chance of Biden being pulled from ticket ;) Looks like others are thinking this way also...
-
dude changes his mind so much it wouldnt be a surprise
-
Obama would rather lose than have Bill and Billary right down the hall.
And Obama's wife despises the Clintons.
-
they don't even call it flipflopping anymore. now it's just 'shifting positions'.
mccian shifted positions on most key issues in 07 to win the nod.
if obama changes VPs, it'll just be "a strategic shift to match desires of voting public - giving them a candidate who matches more of their core values, who also has a vagina".

There is no graceful way for Obama to do that. Unless Biden literally dies it would be viewed as a cynical move and likely rejected by Clinton's supporters. It's not clear that Clinton would even accept. :-\

Have you seen the polls on who african americans are voting for...
-
He doesn't need to get into panic mode.
if he stays true to what he promised, he will win. If he runs around like a chicken with its head cut off, he won't.
-
Why would he change his mind?
With 55 days to the election, and this "Palin Surge" going on... It will take about another 2.5 weeks before it crashes around them.
-
be realistic - palin - like rudy and fred - peaked on day 1.
it'll be downhill from here. Plus only 42% of americans believe she's qualified to lead. 60+% have a favorable view, but that'll drop, no doubt about that.
-
changes VPs,
has this ever happened before?

has this ever happened before?
yup. dude had had electroshock therapy

has this ever happened before?
yeah, when was it... 1968? google isn't being friendly here. some drama came out about a medical history, and ticket was changed.
in this day of marketing, gimmicks, and other silliness (hockey mom with nuke codes - hilarious!), I could see it happening. Obama made a big mistake not choosing hilary. He let his ego come first.

No chance.She wont accept,especially if it looks like Obama is going to loose.Her best scenario would be McCAIN WINS,he does a shitty job and in 4 years she wins.If Obama is elected that means she cant get in for 8 years,time is running out for her.

We don't know that she didn't turn it down already do we?

Agreed. Why rescue Obama? McCain would be a one term president and then it would be all Hillary's.

Good point.

Boy you guys panic awful quickly.

Many think Biden can't.

A woman would be a disaster. It is not her place and role to be involved in the serious affairs of men.
I like Obama as his Kenyan relatives are all good, honest and loyal Muslims. This man understands Islam and the West needs to understand it as it is not going away and it is the future.
-
hilary would still accept in a moment.
the chances of her getting the 2012 nomination - after tearing the party apart in 2008 - would be minimal.
many believed obama had it won 6 weeks before the end - remember when hilary was mathemitcally out of it?
Yet she stayed in it, trashing him for another 6 weeks. There was no way se coudl win nomination - she just didn't want to give up. Obama was hurt bigtime by her "ready to lead?" campaign.
she gets no love in 2012. she'd take this job in a moment. her team announced she'd accept it, on the sat after she dropped out. Obama never vetted or claled her. big mistake.
-
At this point Hillary would have been an obvious better choice.

Because Palin is a woman?
That's the problem... This is coming down to the fact that one of the candidates has a vagina? REALLY?
If that's all it takes to win, then this country is fucked... Forget the fact that she is completely unknown and has some dubious shit going on (they all do... I know) but really... SHE has a VAGINA so she's going to win?
Stupid as hell.

Sad isn't it?
Can you believe this is what this country has come to?
We must be the laughing stock of the world.

"I may not throw the first punch, but I will throw the last punch"
Obama, today.
Bill Clinton today: "Obama will win and win handily"

I wonder what Obama and Clinton's meeting was about today?

same time intrade placed their bets at 7.6% for Biden to drop out, and placed Mccain AHEAD of Obama to win, after obama had been up by 56-44 for a while.

I think that's what will happen. Biden will drop out, and Hillary will come and save the day. They are just going to have to be tackfull about it.

You ain't lying... We're the laughing stock of OURSELVES.

Exactly.

I admit, if he does pick Hillary... McCain loses... End of story.
I wouldn't have even wanted it to be honest... I don't like Hillary, but I tell you what... Just to shove it back in their faces would be right and just.

Have you seen the polls on who african americans are voting for...
funny how this got ignored.
-
Obviously its not just a skin color issue as it is with the stupid women voting for Palin just coz she has a vagina...

Look at Times poll.

sure did. you know his very best people were strongly recommending hillary, but he simply couldn't tolerate the thought on a personal level. now he may lose the election.
