1. MSNBC said he might address the 'hillary unity ticket' idea

I'd love to see him sink her hopes and dreams in one big swoop. No Veep For You!

2. Good. I saw him tell reporters he's not running for VP but I hope he DOES address it here to put

any rumors/ideas floated out there by everyone in the Clinton camp to rest.

3. He's talking about the VP issue! He's saying he's heard the Clintons talking about how he'd make

Edited on Mon Mar-10-08 12:18 PM by jenmito

a great VP! He said, "With all due respect..." then went on to say he's won double the amount of states she won, has more delegates, and the popular vote, and how it's funny how someone who's in SECOND place is offering the person in FIRST place the second slot! Now he's talking about how she kept on about how he'd be unprepared to answer the phone at 3AM, how he has no experience, but then she says she wants him to be VP on her ticket! :rofl:

8. Not too late. He's explaining how Hillary makes no sense floating the VP idea. But he didn't start

taking questions yet.

27. He said the Clintons CHAMPIONED NAFTA, Hillary praised it, and re: his adviser

going to Canada, he said the guy told them the same thing OBAMA'S been saying regarding his position, but the Clintons took that memo the Canadians put out and waved it around claiming he's saying one thing privately and another thing publicly, which isn't true.
