Obama if nominated won’t pick Clinton. She’s not actually popular with anyone (her late successes have simply reflected Obama’s unpopularity) and adds nothing to the ticket. He’ll pick the white male governor or ex-governor of a swing state — adds to the national image and (more importantly) adds to the electoral tally. Ted Strickland, Mark Warner, Ed Rendell — there’s your top list.

Clinton might offer the spot to Obama if she’s the nominee. It would also be a bad move for her in electoral vote terms, but she may not have a choice. Question is whether he’d see it as the right move to accept.

Ed Rendell adds absolutely nothing.
Except perhaps, an anchor around his neck.

The beast has to steal the nomination from bambi in order to even be in the position to offer him a consolation prize...i.e. the veep. I don't see bambi accepting under those conditions.

Wow, I had to read that 3 times before I realized that you weren't giving Rendell the names of the 2 guys he needed to knock off!!!
