I think Hillary would make a great VP

She's a ferocious attack dog, which is what we need in a #2 on the ticket. Although President Warren would need a food taster if it happened, it'd be worth it.

An all-female ticket would be great, too.

64. But what she was hoping for at that time was to run for President in 2016. ...

Being the Vice President would have been a great launching pad.

Hillary was born in 1947. If she ran for VP in 2016 she would be 69. Assume her running mate gets elected and serves two terms. If she ran for President then, she would be 78. If she won twice she would be 86 at the end of her two terms. Many people would feel that she was too old for the job and decide to go with a younger candidate.

John McCain was 72 when he ran for President in 2008. A number of people I know were hesitant to vote for him as they feared the stress of the job might kill him and Sara Palin would assume the office.

67. You've missed the problem...

there is a large and determined block of the left, and not just on DU, that has made it clear they will not countenance a Hillary nomination.

It doesn't matter who bears the standard for liberal Democratic positions in the 2016 Presidential primary if Libby Warren does not because someone will...and we will turn out for that person. We will campaign harder against Clinton in the primaries than we do against the GOP in the GE because we view her as the larger visceral threat to Democratic economic values than the eventual GOP nominee; she is the enemy within, a cancer of RW economic values that must be excised and irradiated to insure the survival of the Democratic Party.

There is no possibility of a non-bloodbath primary as long as Hillary runs. What is energizing the rising economic left is the possibility of strangling out Third Way economics in the Democratic party with a second denial of Hillary ever being President at the same time we're taking contesting the local offices and roots of the party. This is the left's Waterloo of a larger campaign for the future of the Democratic party: are we to be the party of corporatists and moderately-progressive social positions or are we to be the economic & socially liberal party? It's going to make 2008 look like a hands-holding Kumbaya campfire sing-along.

This isn't about Libby Warren...it's about Hillary Clinton.

69. Well, they'll be a much larger group of the Democratic party who will fight back,

if Hillary does choose to run (which at this point we don't know). The Left can push their candidate, the rest of the party will push theirs and let the bloody candidate who is still standing at the end go and fight the Republican nominee in the g.e. Of course it will be a weakened candidate, but the Left wouldn't give a crap about that. This won't be like 2008 where people were so disgusted with Bush that Mickey Mouse would have won if he had been the Democratic nominee. It's going to be hard enough to keep the WH in 2016.

BTW, I give a lot more credit to Elizabeth Warren than some of you do. If it's clear that Hillary runs, I doubt that Liz would want a bloody confrontation with her. They like and respect each other. One thing is for Warren to go after Wall Street and another would be to use the same tone going after a fellow Democrat. I don't see her wanting to do that.

Now that the battlefield is clear, let the games begin.

68. I prefer to think of it as simply someone not Hillary.

I'm sure there's an equally qualified female we could run for President who has the added benefit of not being a center-right Democrat in the pocket of Wall Street, big banking and the oligarchy like the Clintons are. (I know there is at-least one, I also know why she's not running.)

They're just not as exciting as Libby Warren to talk about at this point.

30. That's exactly what my Republican neighbors

said about Obama if he picked Hillary.

They were voting for Obama because their son had adopted a black child..but uh, uh, to the First Black President's wife (well, he used to be).

But why demote Elizabeth Warren?

Oh wait... you didn't mean Vice Principal. Nevermind.

44. The most dangerous job in the world?

Food taster for President Warren.

The woman is making some remarkably implacable enemies.

Ming the Merciless would look like Barney the Dinosaur next to some of them.

I'm reminded of that old saying, friends come and go but enemies accumulate.

53. When Howard was Chairman, he went on TV and insisted to the world that the Democratic

platform had a plank opposing marriage equality. Of course he was lying. Or alternatively he was utterly uninformed about our own platform and about the voters in our Party.
I called his office, they called back all apology and muttered chagrin, but Howie failed to go back to that show to correct his spewed verbal bullshit.
Howard supports lots of things I don't support. His support is reason to be cautious.

48. I for one would prefer if Hillary just retired from seeking elected office

She was elected Senator and Appointed Sec of State she has done enough, it is time for her to step aside, it is time for some new blood in the party to lead the party in a new direction and I just don't see how a former Goldwater Girl will lead the party in a direction that will be good for the country.

52. I'm not wild about Hillary either. Don't get me wrong, I'll

vote for her if that's my only choice. Between her and a no good republican, you have to go with Hillary. I'm sick of these DINO's presidents, and Hillary is a DINO.

79. If we want to get rid of DINOs,

we have to start lower down and get rid of republicans in the lower offices. More democratic control means dems will be freer to be more left leaning in their policies.

87. I don't get what the hell is going on over here.

I understand political differences and preferring certain politicians over others, but this nastiness and inference that the Clintons would kill people is just sickening. It's even worse when it's coming from a Democratic site. That's the kind of vile behavior that one sees on RW sites.

The use of that photo in service of making a joke is insensitive at best - I was a teenager at the time of the JFK assassination.

It was a terrible time for the country and to use that photo in an attempt to make some lame joke is offensive an divisive.

76. People made the same ugly food-taster comments

when Hillary Clinton was being considered as Obama's running mate. The people who said that were thinking ugly thoughts.

It's a bad association you bring to mind, Manny. A bad one, indeed. Please think longer before posting, OK?
