Perhaps further fueling speculation that Barack Obama may replace Joe Biden on the Democratic presidential ticket with, say, Hillary Clinton, take a look at part of the president's schedule for today...

When Sarah Palin made that statement yesterday about how Obama should drop Biden for Hillary, I knew something was brewing. The only reason Palin would say something like that was the hope that maybe Obama might back away from doing it if it looked like the idea was coming from her.

If this happens, it will make it tougher for Romney/Ryan to win the women vote. On the other hand, might make it a lot easier for blue-collar males (the Reagan Democrats) to come over to our side. As well, the black voters won't be too thrilled to see Hillary on the ticket, still some bad feeling from the 2008 campaign.

It will put her in line for President next time around. I’m sure BIG money and BIG
favors will change hands The Klintons are SCUM .
This is THE smartest thing Obama can do now. Actually it will be the call of his handlers (Soros and co.) and NOT his call at all.

Hillary wants a shot at the big seat in 2016.

OR, if anything happened to Oboma, she'd be president immediately. She wouldn't have to wait to run in 2016. By then, she'd be the incumbent - harder to defeat.

(BTW, Hillary also tried a fascist take over of our health care system. She's no different than Oboma.)

Clueless Joe stays. There is no upside for Obama to replace him. Repubs are currently playing a game of chain-yankin’.

If they pull that, we should taunt them for taking Sarah Palin’s advice.

And for choosing the architect of HillaryCare.

Hillary doesn't bring BIG votes with her.

If she did, she would be the Won and Obama would be voting present.

Ageed. These two massive egos in the same room? Thunder Thighs would be foaming at the mouth to get rid of Odinga.

Cankles wants 2016. Palin helped to insure that zero won’t be letting go of of Biden. If the boobOTUS took Cankles now, he’d look like...well...a bigger boob than before! If that’s possible.

Unless Obama loses, then she will be tainted as a loser.

Well at least we should be able to agree that in the event she does get on board, Obama and the Clinton's would have to be pretty confident they've got an ace up their sleeve and that he's not going to lose this fall.

I disagree, during 2008 it was the white vote she was taking from Obama. That will carry through during this campaign. It would make it much harder for Romney in Ohio and Wisconsin.

You do have to wonder where are all of the yard signs for Obama/Biden 2012.

If there was no edit to be made, then shouldn’t they be out there by now? Or maybe I’m just not remembering when these things usually show up.

I don’t think Obama’s ego is going to turn Hillary loose so close to him...All of the attention will be on her then. Sad sack Obama will just have to stand there like Joe Biden? No way in hell!

If he puts the she-devil in there, he’s signing his own death certificate, because she wants the top job more than anything, and will see that she gets it, pronto.

Please don’t let this happen. It will totally get the Democrats to the polls in droves and that is the LAST thing we want.

On the other hand, leftists are overly emotional. They're throwing poor 'ol Joe under the bus for political gain. People COULD be made to feel sorry for 'ol Joe if the Republicans played it right. Oboma COULD be easily turned into a "really mean man. "

Obviously, Oboma doesn't like old people. Would he really put 'ol Joe in front of his death panel? Just give him a pill and send him on his way?

"Oboma obviously hates elderly people. That's why he's dumping 'ol Joe, too."

I think internal polls show Obama in trouble, and Bernanke has told him the economy isn’t going to be better by Nov. He is desperate and this would be a desperate move.
Don’t worry about Obama, Chicago thug politics will insure Hillary is kept isolated and ineffectual unless Obama wants her to speak out to support him.

I don’t think Obama can let Joe go. He needs “dumb as a post” Joe to make himself look good. Hillary would be a big danger to Odinga. These two socialists won’t get along well in the same room...

Maybe he listened to Palin on Foxnews. She said if he dumped Biden for Clinton, it would tremendously increase his chances of getting another 4 years. McCain advised obama to put Clinton on the ticket, also.
