Hillary says she's open to the job of Vice President.
Because you never know what could happen.
The AP reported:
Hillary Rodham Clinton has told congressional colleagues she would be open to becoming Barack Obama's vice presidential nominee, saying she would consider it if it would help Democrats win the White House.Ben Smith has more on the VP news.
Clinton, a New York senator, made the comment on a conference call with other New York lawmakers Tuesday, according a participant on the call.
The senator's remarks came in response to a question from Democratic Rep. Nydia Velazquez who said she believed the best way for Obama to win over key voting blocs, including Hispanics, would be for him to choose Clinton as his running mate.
"I am open to it," Clinton replied, if it would help the party's prospects in November.
UPDATE: Here's a shocker-- The nation's worst former president endorses nation's most liberal senator.
The Clintons have an unusual number of associates who have wound up dead in odd circumstances. Even if the Clintons are entirely blameless, why should Obama take such a chance by having Hill fill the two-hole.

The Clintons are students of history. What did Reagan do in 1976? He turned down the VP slot offered to him by President Ford. Hillary will do the same, hoping to get elected in 2012 after Obama loses this fall.
