(seen on CNBC's Kudlow program) | August 16, 2012 | self

Joe Klein (author of "The Amateur")said his sources in the Clinton camp told him that Jarrett invited Hillary to lunch two weeks ago and asked her if she would accept the VP slot to replace Biden. Hillary refused to encourage an offer.

Klein said that Bill and Jarrett (and it is assumed Michelle and Barry) were for it, but Hillary figured that if Obama lost, she would be finished and she wanted to preserve her options for 2016.

"Cheer up baby ... sez right here even Sarah thinks you're better than Biden.
Besides, 2016 is just four short years away."

Chelsea has had extensive cosmetic surgery. So how did that work out for her? She’s still a double bagger.

There’s way too much that would need to be done for Hill to be a contender starting with face lift, lipo on thighs and
cankle and arse reduction.

Additionally, they have to figure out what to do about her Muslim GF, Huma Weiner.

Her options for "2016"? LOL.

At that point, the Sea Hag would be a more attractive candidate than "Cankles".

Zero is lucky she didn’t accept the offer. If she did and they won the election, he would be a dead man.

Ed Klein, not Joe. Except for the last name, not much the same.

That might explain why Slow Joe has been a non-stop gaffe machine for the last week...

Nothing like knowing you are being tossed under the bus by your boss...and Slow Joe is a big enough ass clown to do some payback...

The WH put this out because Sarah Palin had suggested the other day that the Obama team replace Biden with Clinton. Should they go with Clinton they could say that they did so not because Palin had suggested it.

In terms of how it comes across on TV, I disagree that Ryan will wipe the floor with Biden. Biden is very, very slick. He makes stuff up with even missing a beat, and it’s impossible — as Gingrich found with Romney — to deal with someone who flat out lies in the middle of a debate.

In Biden’s case, he’s so slick that no one can call him on it.

Remember the foreign policy piece of his debate with Palin when the came out with the “fact” that we’d spent more in 3 weeks on Iraq than we had in all of the Aghan conflict up to that point. That was so wrong, but people don’t have those numbers at their fingertips, and the MEDIA would never call him on it.

So, this Biden/Ryan debate will not be a cakewalk.

And you can bet that the liberal moderators will slant every question toward foreign policy and away from budget, jobs, economy, etc. They’ll avoid Ryan’s strengths.

How many face lifts can Hillary! have? It looks like she has already blown through a couple and still looks old.

Well, seize...
I hope you have video, a link or a transcript to back this up because on the Free Republic, if some did not hear it, see it or smell it, they won’t believe it!
( Pssst, I believe you without a link!)

She’s been a serious road warrior both in the 08 campaign and as SoS. That’s tough duty, even with private jets and 5 star hotels, for someone near 65.

Throw in the energy needed to keep Huma happy, and I’m not at all surprised she’s looking rode hard and put away wet.

If I had the cash and desire, I could look 20 again. I have neither...and am far away from 20. Dang..is there cankle surgery? Or could one just wear a long dress or pant suit?

Many people, unlike us, don’t see her ugly mind.

The Huma issue is a lttle harder for her to shed. But since the CIC cuddles up to the Muslim Brotherhood with no criticism there might not be a problem with suppoters.

If we see her losing weight and fixing her hair..it might be time to worry.

I’ve lived in DC for 20 years (save three) and I’ve worked in politics for ten of those. I’ve had the experience of working with a lot of real true-blue America loving conservatives and I’ve also had to work with democrats. Several of them were close to Hillary and I can tell you that if she thought the ticket was a winner, she would have taken the job. Given the fact that Obama is a miserable failure, I predicted that she would leave in 2011, write a book and run against that guy that her husband felt should be getting them coffee.
I think she missed her opportunity and she doesn’t want more of this administration hung over her shoulders than already is. Unless Joe takes a trip to Ft Marcy Park, she’ll have to wait.

So I want someone to explain something to me...

If Obama is so "up" in the polls, why is Joe Biden a factor? Why replace him?

All of this talk is another sign that the real polls read by the actual campaigns shows Obama in deep trouble.
