Not Likely
June 5, 2008
It’s not unlike being a forensic psychiatrist, mucking around the dark, dank, twists and turns of a megalomaniacal mind. So what is Hillary thinking and why would she accept (perhaps insist on) the vice-presidency?
The senate was only a means, never an end, to return in defeat would make it a dead end.
Her advantage and distinction (being the presumptive heir apparent) is forever lost. And the sense of betrayal and desertion by so many of her colleagues speaks volumes, in fact collected works. It might diminish the collegiality of the work place environment to the point of being an OSHA violation.
But most important, being offered the vice-presidency becomes her vindication and denies him an unalloyed victory. Additionally he would be denied his first major decision while having to admit (if only to himself) that his brand of social service socialism didn’t move, to the left, the majority of Americans.
Not that Hillary is less toxic to liberty, but she ran a leftist lite campaign assuming she was addressing the country and not the cadre’s.
Senator Obama is a man of great ambition and I believe greater arrogance, neither would be altogether appeased having to share a moment in history with his nemesis.
Better no presidency than a de facto co-presidency.
