I'm glad that Lanny Davis and others are pressing to put HRC on the ticket...
It's the very thing that will make it impossible.

As Barack says in his interview with Brian Williams (paraphrasing): It's the first decision I'll make and it will signal how I'll run my presidency.

In other words, he's not going to be bullied.

2. I think the Bill story is just their way of letting her down NOW.

3. Many many good reasons not to have her on the ticket:
There are many reasons that this is unlikely if not impossible:

1) Bill's shady business deals
2) Bill's refusal to release the names of his library donors
3) The Republicans already have attack ads out using Hillary's attacks on Obama
4) He won't be BULLIED into anything
5) She represents old politics, he represents change and a fresh start
6) He needs someone to compliment his strengths and weaknesses - like someone strong on the military.
7) He needs someone who is 100% supportive of him and HIS dream for America
8) She and Bill would upstage him at every possible moment
9) She is morally bankrupt and I believe dangerous to be in a position of power.

4. That interview was VERY telling.
He will Govern from a position of strength. She brings only weakness to the picture.
