A former Clinton adviser says Obama is not formally vetting the New York senator.
(CNN) — Is the so-called Democratic 'dream ticket' off the table?Despite speculation that Barack Obama's presidential campaign is seriously considering Hillary Clinton for the No. 2 spot on the Democratic presidential ticket, a former senior advisor to Clinton said Thursday he doesn't think the New York senator is being formally considered for the job.
Howard Wolfson, the former Clinton campaign communications director, told Fox News Thursday he isn't aware of any official effort on behalf of the Obama campaign that suggests the Illinois senator is considering his former rival for his running mate.
"Not as far as I know," Wolfson said when asked if Clinton had been "asked to participate in the vetting process for VP."
