At first, I wanted Obama to pick Hillary as his VP, even though I would have been unhappy with him at the top of the ticket. As I learned more about him, I decided that I absolutely wanted Hillary to stay off of his ticket. I think Hillary should stay as far away from Obama as she can. He's just bad news.
But I've been concerned that, even though it's obvious Obama personally dislikes Hillary, he might have conceded that he really needed her as VP. So I've been waiting somewhat anxiously to see who he will choose.
And now, we have a clear indication that Hillary is not going to be it. Yesterday, we found out that Obama has hired Patti Solis Doyle to be his VP's "chief of staff." Doyle, if you recall, was Hillary's former campaign manager, the one Hillary fired due to her incompetence.
Notwithstanding that it's very bizarre for Obama to be appointing a chief of staff for his veep when normally that's the veep's choice...why on earth would he pick a failed campaign manager for the job?
Some are now speculating that Doyle was on the Obama payroll the whole time, and perhaps was a mole in the Clinton campaign, actively working to sabotage her.
It makes sense when you think about it...because otherwise, why would you choose someone who had screwed up so badly for a plum gig, and at the same time, tick off Hillary and her supporters? There is definitely something fishy going on here.
But the good news in all of this? With Doyle and Clinton not on speaking terms, we now know for certain that Hillary will not be Obama's VP. And HURRAH for that!

She should have fired Mark Penn also. For a chief strategist, not knowing that the delegates of California are appointed proportionally to the vote instead of winner take-all, is somewhat very poor.
If Hillary had done that, maybe she would have won, who knows.
He's just proving once again that - despite how so many wish to paint him as the gentlemanly uniter and progressive change agent - he's just one mean nasty little megalomaniac. He seems to delight in the opportunity to symbolically flip off Hillary yet again.
As Hillary so aptly said, "Shame on you, Barack Obama!"
Here's my new video for joining Just Say No Deal. It summarizes in Obama's words many of the reasons why we cannot vote for Obama.
