Is it fair to blame Obama for not picking Hillary as his VP?

I'm pretty sure Hillary wants BO to lose so she can run in 4 years. What is this de Rothschild/McCain business about? You don't think Hillary is behind that at all?

You would be correct to say that Barrack needs Hillary to win. I think anyway. But I don't think that choice was there for the taking.

I am sure he had good reasons for his choice- but I do hope and believe for some reason that Hillary will play a major role in his cabinet. Obama has picked numerous Clinton people to be around him in various roles as McCain has picked the same from the Bush camp.

Obama had good reasons to choose Biden. Hillary understands well.

Al thisso called bad blood between Clinton and Obama is bunk.

Sure Hillary would have loved to win but that is politics.

One thing to consider is if he did ask Hillary behind closed doors she declined and he isn't allowed to say he offered. Then if he doesn't win she just has to wait 4 years to try again instead of 8 if he won.

She might be wanting to be the first woman president more than the first woman vice president.

you guys on this Hillary VP talk miss one important element. She was offended to have never been asked, because she's "the Hillary". But if her self annointed ego was satisfied because she was asked, she would have said no any way because she and Bill couln't play 2nd fiddle to anyone. It's not in their ego. Obama's advisers are correct. To ask and be told no, would have destroyed his campaign for prez and Hillary would never be abale to look at her 18 million supporters and explain why she said no.

Catch 22.

No. She would have had him by the balls all the way through the campaign, claiming she'd be the reason he won.

I don't blame him for not.

Granted Clintons will benefit him well if he gets elected, and although my support was for Hillary initially, I don't think it would work with them as a team.

I think he did well to pick Joe. He is a team player, and his experience will serve Obama well.

No. Hillary never wanted to be VP. She only wanted to be President. Joe Biden was a wise selection. His experience and foreign policy expertise make him more qualified for the position than Hillary.

Not really. Even if Obama had asked her, Hillary could still refuse to run.

Although not choosing her damaged his campaign somewhat (in my opinion), what is done is done. Time to move on to current events.

Wish he would have picked Hillary, cause then we would never have heard of Palin, until she invaded Canada :)

Here's what Obama really thinks of Hillary:
