CNN

Well that all being sad and done only means that Hillary will be President in 2012 after all Obama will lose in November and then McCain will screw the US up for 4 more years and then Hillary will have to come in and clean up after the republicans just like her hubby did.

Anyone who sees Obama winning with out her on the ticket may as well just stay in on election day and save your gas money!

Hillary 2012 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

whine... whine... whine. Democrats whine daily but they on election day they must go fishing.

At this point, Clinton should back off from VP/Presidential ambitions. Get in there, campaign for Obama, & be a prime candidate for the next Supreme Court opening. That would give her clout for life, even in excess of VP or Prez.

HRClinton for Supreme Court ASAP!

Hillary is right the Democatic party is a family but dysfunctional. It is time to put our differences aside. Retire Hillary debit and put so fuel to the fire for Obama lets come together and take back the White House. Carl Rove should be in jail. Congress needs to be held accountable for not doing nothing. We have housing crisis, food crisis, gas crisis, children are in need of services, families are in need. The Iraq war and Afganstan is still in play. The solider give their lives are real the are people our love ones. We cant get into a push and shove. If we keep fighting none of us will get what we want. Dont be fooled by the Republicans. John McCain is gaining ground his donations are up. The same old play book. If Hillary supporters think by hurting the Democratic party by turning their backs on Barack there is nothing that we can do. If Clinton supports don't want to give to Barack then give to Clinton to help her. I they choose to do nothing. Then what are their true intentions? Is it really for the party or for themselves.

Obama is better off WITHOUT CLINTON. She carries a lot of baggage (both politicaly and physically).

She and Bill are total distractions and old school politics (dirty tricksers, deceitful, liers, etc...).

MOST PEOPLE HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF THE CLINTON'S (both Bill and Hill).

I am with ED, no more Bush/Clinton. The end of this very divisive era needs to happen sooner than later.

Obama is an arrogant, flip flopping, puppet who is a fraud. He is change because he changes his mind every day. Obama is a real dirty underground Chicago politician who is pretending to be differenet. Anyone who has 1/2 a brain knows this guy is full of it.

I am a Hillary supporter and will NEVER vote for Obama. Not because I am angry, but because I DO NOT LIKE HIM!!!!!!! Obama is a fraud! I will not vote for him even if Hillary is the VP. I cannot wait until the republicans destroy him. The democrats deserve to lose for picking the puppet candidate who has no chance of winning.

This is just silly. Wolfson doesn't KNOW whether she's being/been vetted, because he isn't an Obama insider. Now, if David Plouffe said this, then it would be news.

I dont know if you Obama supporters are old enough to remember but under the Clintons we had a surplus and our economy was booming. So, to compare their reign to that of the Bush's is moronic. Stay in school kids and they you will learn the Clintons were awesome for our country and respected worldwide (unlike the Bush family)...

John Edwards is clearly the best qualified of any VP candidate!!

To you who think Hillary has been so well vetted, I'd like to remind you that she has a husband who has had some shady dealings since he left the white house. Then there are questionable fund raising dealings connected to Hillary's 2000 senate campaign. There is too much drama that follows Bill and Hillary Clinton. I defended them for eight years and that's enough.

CNN...PLEASE STOP!!!!! No one knows for sure who he is going to pick or not pick. Please stop posting mess like this ticker. You are only going to get the PUMA nuts and "I'm still voting for Hillary even if it means waisting a vote and sinking this country" fanatics all riled up. DEMOCRATS.....STOP LETTING THE MEDIA DIVIDE US!!!!!!!! IF YOU ARE TRULY A HILLARY SUPPORTER, THEN THERE IS NOTHING THAT MCCAIN HAS TO SAY THAT SHOULD INTEREST YOU. HIS VIEWS ON THE ISSUES ARE TOTALLY POLAR OPPOSITE THAN HILLARY'S. WAKE UP AND SAVE OUR COUNTRY. ITS TIME FOR A NEW DIRECTION... STOP BEING AFRAID OF CHANGE!!!!!!!!!!

No Hillary, no vote and that means me and my husband. He needs to help her pay her debt also, she would have helped him.

I believe Hillary could be a wonderful VP (although I didn't really like her when I was watching the primary). However, Obama would have to set down some big rules and keep his thumb on things. he could put her in charge of health care or something. He should, however, make her attorney general or give her a cabinet post on Health and Human Services. She would be the best there.

Obama should pick whomever he wants for VP. that's his choice and nobody else's.

Obama 08/12

Wolfson works for Fox. He's probably on their payroll to work against Barack.

If Barack wants to win this election he HAD BETTER pick Hillary or he's lost our vote !

Hillary is awesome and she can do the job. Either way i'll still vote for the Dems, never Reps

This is good news to me. The fact that Clinton is not being vetted for VP. She is to controlling and would be a distraction to Obama. She has way to much baggage. Obama want have any time to answer questions on the issues for having to answer questions about condemning allegations about her. He would be the president but she would get all the attention. The Clintons have had there time in the White House, give somebody else a chance.

Go Obama Go!

I think the problem with Hillary is that she is disingenuous, and represents the "Old" Democratic party. My lack of support for her is due to this fact entirely, and has NOTHING to do with her gender. Also, the notion that she was treated unfairly by the press is total nonsense, she was dishonest and was called on it, period.

I think it's best if she sits this one out and learns how to be truthful. She must do this before she will EVER earn my respect.

Senator Obama poses Change, not more of the same. That means no more Bushes and no more Clintons. The media has pushed this tale to the limits and should back off at this point. Why not tell Senator McCain who to pick for his "dream ticket" for a change. As an independent, who thoroughly supports Senator Obama for President, I believe he is more than capable of choosing the perfect candidate for VP. I will respect his decision and continue to support him on his road to the White House.

Fox News is not a credible source, please restrain from using their partisan reporting for news articles

I don't want Hillary on the ticket and I hope she's NOT being considered. Too much baggage and then there's Bill. It was stated a few weeks ago that Hillary was not in consideration unless Bill was willing to release his Clinton Foundation donor list which he still refuses to do. Get over it! Clintons are done and it's time to move on.

Gen. Wesley Clark has the military/national security issues locked up. His military service record far exceeds John McCain's and Clark definitely has the tested leadership skills that McCain lacks. Someone made a comment about even graduating 894 of 898 from the Naval Academy made McCain better educated than Obama with his Ivy League schools. How about this – Valedictorian of West Point. Gonna have to say that trumps near the bottom of the Naval Academy. And just for kicks let's throw in Rhodes scholar from Oxford. He has the calm demeanor that compliments Obama's, intelligence, tested leadership skills in military situations, and did I mention that his degree from Oxford was in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics.

Obama/Clark '08

Hillary supporters for McCain! Experience outshines arrigant inexperience every time. We just had 8 years of that thank you very much!

It was McCain that was scheduled to participate in the fund raiser with the Texas man that joked about rape victims, not Obama!!!!

he has every right to choose who he deems the best candidate. it is amazing how Senator Clinton has so many supporters and is still in so much debt. If you love her so much, pay her bills for her. Senator Obama has ran a structured, professional campaign and it would be unwise to bring someone with the baggage that this woman has. I supported her until I saw how she ran her campaign. it was a disgrace. I am ready for change that I can truly believe in. I cannot wait to get to Denver!

Obama 08/12

Mccain can not be blamed, he is old and can't remember.

He can't decide or makeup his mind about issues.

On Viagra he doesn't know what to say when asked.

About whinning American he can't say anything about it either.

If the terrorist bomb and kill American it will favour Mccain.

All these words were said from Mccain camp but they were quickly forgotten.
Why ? They were said from Obama's camp.

CNN be fair Mccain himself and his camp have made blunder comments and they are easily been foregetten.

It is not surprising . Her era is over and she shouldn't overshadow his nobility and charisma through the coming years. he should run the office on his own and vett someone important but not from the whitehouse descendants .

Kevin,
That is because there are the extreme Hillaries who can't stand Obama and then there are the reasonable Hillary supporters who have now shifted to Obama and the others who are on the fence. Hillary's supporters don't fall into one camp. It's just that the extreme Hillaries, small in number, are very vocal.
You're right, on her own merits, Hillary deserves to be considered. But it's all gotten so complex.

Where are the 18 million supporters? Why are they not giving donations to erase her debth?

Ok, I understand, they were only cracks made by those who can't see beyond their nose.

Obama has abaondoned the LEFT by coming to the Centre and hence lost the Democratic base. The LEFT or the RIGHT is the base of a Party. these people vote and get the votes out. He will NOT get the women vote. He will not get the hispanic votes. He will not get much of the white vote. The he has Jeremy, Michelle and Jesse Jackson's comments to deal with. Not to forget Two-term democratic President Bill Clinton whose legacy he twisted. Then we have Rezco who is in prison. Too much support from Elitists Kennedy, Kerry, Oprah etc. etc. Now the flip -flop label which most likely will stick. Add to this the attacks from McCain which will only get more vicious. Add to this Wesley Clark.
ANSWER: Take Hillary and Bill will save him from all the mess and get him elected because the Clintons know how to deal with the Republicans. They do not have the Niceguy syndrome like Obama does. The Clintons were always winners and they can make Obama a winner. Ofcourse there is payback.

There is no room for anyone else in the spotlight, at the top of this democratic sham

PUMA for McCain

Hillary has not been fully vetted. The Clintons have never released a detailed list of donors to the Clinton Presidential Library (and Hillary has indicated that she has no intention of doing so), nor have they released an accounting of just where Bill's public speaking fees are coming from or a list of any other deals with which he might be involved. My guess is that releasing this information would put her out of the running for VP. Let's also not forget that little fraud trial coming up this fall....

She's too risky as a VP choice. But she'd make a great Supreme Court justice.

If not Hillary, then John Edwards.

I mean, I am glad Mrs. Clinton is NOT being considered.

She'll probably steal Dick Cheney's modus operandi: vet the candidates, but select herself instead. Crooks of a feather!

Hillary is only a few Pledged Delegates behind Obama, That means she could pull off the nomination at the convention. Think about it, we could mess up Republican opposition research is we at the convention change the candidate! All of the adds republican's aired would be useless, and Obama's adds and attacks against John McCain would still be valid. Only a few delegates apart, why don't we still nominate Hillary?

jean HUISSEIN,

Get over it – there will be no OBAMA/CLINTON TICKETS. The Clintons and most of her supportors blow that chance with all their racist and hate. He can win with out a bunch of sore losers.

Just had dinner with a woman last night. She was african...from Kenya to be exact. I asked her what is the main difference between black africans and black americans. She said "Blacks in America" have a sense of entitlement. They feel the world owes them for
slavery which is why they have under performed in terms of any accomplishment America can boast of outside sports and entertainment. She said its time for them to put the slavery routine to bed and fold the race card. She says all her friends are white. She prefers it that why. She also said black africans have absolutely nothing in common with Black american culture and actually look down on it. You learn something new everyday I guess.

Her role inside the Obama government will be a different one. Being a minister fits much better to her than just to be the number two.

Hussein just lost 17 million votes.

picking her would be a mistake. BUT not picking her would be a bigger mistake!

People can give this up b/c I don't think she is going to be the VP. She and Bill (more Bill) have too much baggage attached to them. If she is picked the republicans will bring up all the scandals of the Clinton administration and garner up support for those who utterly despise the Clinton, and believe or not there are some people who still hold resentment towards them. His pick will of course be somebody with extensive military experience, that's a no brainer. Hillary will be in his cabinet over Health Care or something to this extent. Can you image a White House with Barack and Bill and Hillary in it...yeah that aint happening anytime soon.

Wolfson is an complete idiot to make such a public comment. Why speculate publicly on such a touchy issue when you have absolutely no facts to draw on?

This demonstrates the lack of insight and forethought that contributed to Clinton's primary loss. He's not showing any concern beyond his own concerns, or what he thinks are his only concerns. I have two words for him to consider the next time he wants to open his mouth.

"What if.....?"

I'm an avid supporter of Senator Obama,
I'll go with whomever he deems helps him the most to win the election and in turn, change the direction of the country. Right now, more than 70% of Americans say we're on the wrong track.

If he goes with Senator Clinton, that, in my mind, will be a great choice.
I do ask the former Clinton supporters this.
How would you respond, as if you're Senator Clinton, when asked,
How do you respond to the fact that you said previously that you, quote, had experience and Senator McCain had experience, and with respect to Senator Obama, you'll have to ask him." OR
Sen. Clinton, you said you had this and Sen. Obama gave a speech?

Again, I'm all for her on the ticket if Senator Obama feels she gives the Dems the best chance to win this November. I just don't know how to answer these questions, and other ones surely to come up.

Biden or Bayh are two excellent choices. And with Obama running well right now in Indiana, Bayh makes sense. Except that he loses that Senatorial seat. So, Biden makes sense because the Dems would likely keep that seat.

Then again, maybe Clark as Obama wouldn't have to worry about losing a seat. Who knows? Come last week of August, we'll have a better idea.

Whether or not Barack Obama decides to pursue Hillary Clinton as a running mate is 100% up to him, and him alone. He will not bow in to pressure and trying to pressure him will most likely have a negative impact on her chances.

There are many viable candidates for VP, and it appears that Hillary Clinton doesn't have her arms around her former supporters and so the case being made about him needing to make her a VP in order to secure their support is a weak one.

If her 18 million supporters had raised more than the $100,000 they have so far to bury her campaign debt, I would have sensed their continued support in her future. Since they haven't, I do not.

It's over for Hill. That's sad, but not news. She will be great in a cabinet post.

Then he's lost my vote. Without her on the ticket....I'll abstain

I agree with Wayne. After you've been in power for so long, it's hard to give up the crown. All Clintons and Bushes need to go away and give someone else a turn. We can survive without a Clinton or a Bush in the White House. Who does Hillary think she is, Evita?

Sa no, hell no to Hillary.

Make no mistake. wolfson is cold and calculating and knows exactly what he doing. He wants the so called hillaryites to get up in arms again and start trying to strongarm Sen Obama into picking her as VP.

Bill and Hill has the same old plan of making sure Obama doesn't win so old girl can run in 2012. after that, she will just be too old.

could someone be that calculating, you ask. We are talking about slick willie, aren't we?

Oh no, the PUMA idiots will be out in full force with this article.

If you morons were really Hillary supporters as you say you are, you'd be following her and voting for Obama to make sure we have a Democrat in the white house and not a continuation of the same failed Bush policies that have sent this country down the toilet these past 7 years.

As a Hillary Clinton supporter, it pains me to see how the Obama's campaign has disregarded the value of Hillary and the 18 million people who voted for her. The day he announces that Hillary Clinton will not be his VP, there will be a good number of people in this country making up their minds about voting republican or deciding to not vote at all in the presidential election.

Obama is acting like George Bush acted after the Florida election, acting as if he won by landslide. The only act of courage that could redeem him, as far as I'm concerned, and would gain him my vote is by selecting Hillary Clinton as Vice President.

Also, his choice of Carolyn Kennedy as part of the VP search committee only showed his out of touch style, another Bush trait. When was the last time Carolyn Kennedy did anything for the coutry, other than his biological connection to President Kennedy?

I'm a very disilussioned Democrat, a Latino Democrat, who is now a gegistered independent. Will never vote for Obama, unless Clinton is part of the ticket.

I know I'm not the only one who feels this way in my community.

And believe me, Hillary will continue not to be considered. Too much uncertanties; too much baggage; and a whole lot of non-sincerity. Her 18 million vote card is also about to expire and she will remain with a 30 million campaign debt.......truly defeated......by her own hands.

That's okay, he wasn't getting my vote anyway.

Hillary shouldn't be vice president. The vice president position is mostly ceremonial unless the president goes down for the count.
Hillary would have much more power and be able to do much greater things for the US if she was in one of the powerful cabinet positions.
This would also allow her to run against Obama in 2012. If she is his VP, she can't run against him (without huge political fallout). Hillary's core mandate has always been healthcare. Let's get her into a position where she can actually push the national healthcare system through. Give VP to some spokesmodel type politician (pretty boy, but not much substance), like Dan Quayle was for Bush senior. Put the people with real horsepower (Hillary) in positions where they can get good work done.

If Hillary doesn't get VP, Obama will NOT get my vote. I wont vote for McCain though. I will just stay home.

i am going to vote for sen obama for president regardless of who is the vp but i would love for hillary to be on the ticket i think the team would be unbeatable and good for our country it would bring all of her supporters on board obama clinton 08

This is up to Obama and everybody– everybody- else should stay out of it.

I hope this isnt true. But it may change if we get closer to the election and Obama isnt up more in the polls.

CLINTON IS A GOOD PERSON, MAY HAVE MADE SOME MISTAKES OVER HER LIFE. HERE IS WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW, SHE IS HIS CHOICE YOU CANNOT DENY THAT, EVEN THOUGH I DONT LIKE HER, I GOT TO ADMIT THEY LOOK REALLY GOOD TOGETHER AND I CAN LIVE WITH THAT. OTHER THINGS TO CONSIDER HE HAS ONLY THREE CHOICES

1-BLOOMBERG EXCELLENT
2-CLINTON 50/50
3-BIDEN 80/20

MY CHOICE IS THAT HE WILL PICK CLINTON AND ULTIMATELY END WITH BLOOMBERG AFTER CLINTON TELLS HIM NO. AS A REPUBLICAN I AM TRULY SORRY WE COULD NOT PRESENT A BETTER CHOICE I SEE WHY BUSH WON TWICE OVER THIS GUY HE NEEDS ME AS HIS MANAGER-

Pick Joe Biden and be done with it.

Sen. Obama has quite a few strong candidates that he could select to help shore up his vulnerable points. Here are a few that I think would be good VP's along the reasons why:

1. Chuck Hagle- Very strong on the foreign policy front, excellent millitary service record, and can help win undecided moderate Republicans.

2. Colin Powell- Former Secretary of State, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and doesn't have baggage the Republicans could use against the ticket.

3. Evan Bayh- Relates well with voters in the rural areas of the mid-west, and takes away the elitist tag the Republican's will try to use.

He just lost my vote..

Thank GOD Obama is smart enough not to pick Clinton as his VP! I just don't trust her.....never have, never will.

Obama/Clark 08

Obama needs to pick someone who has actually governed something... like a governor.

1. Governor of Kansas (best choice)
2. Governor of North Carolina
3. Governor of Ohio
4. Governor of Pennsylvania

So Clinton is formally thrown under the bus, who's next?

A good solid choice would be Joe Biden for Democratic VP. Whether Obama or McCain wins in November, the VP selection is going to be very important since both candidates fall short in either foreign or domestic policy.

I'm very happy to know that Hillary's former advisers are being cut out of any role in Obama's campaign. I'm sure Obama is seriously considering Hillary as a running mate.

Let him NOT pick her and watch him lose – can't wait.

Wolfson couldn't figure out Obama before, why would he know what's going on now. He's just practising causing trouble for democrats now that he's part of Fix News.

Obama, Is making a big miistake not having Hilary Clinton his vice president .I am out a lot and do a lot of talking ,if he does not name her all her suport will go to McCaine .The women are the most upset.

I would love to see Hillary and Obama on the same ticket.

IT will be a great thing for this country.

you should be so lucky.- Sign me-Writing Her In.

Who needs the vice-presidency anyway? So Hillary has debt.... who doesn't? Who needs whom in this argument? Clinton isn't in the running for the presidency and doesn't need anybody. Obama needs each and every one of Clinton's supporters to beat McCain. Guess what? He won't get it!

I guess Obama wants to lose.

Aaaaand....cue the Operation Chaos operatives pretending to be "Hillary supporters for McCain".

Hillary, Hillary, Hillary–she like a gnat that doesn't go away. Who cares about her?

Well, first of all I don't think anybody should be VP who owes so much money. Hillary owes millions and until she pays her debt she shouldn't be thinking about being on anybody's ticket.

Pay your debt Hillary and go back to work for the good people of New York.

This sounds like there is something "speculative" in Hillary's files that we the public aren't privy to. When Hillary first started her campaign she refused to release her library files so maybe there is something damaging in her files and if so I hope it isn't disclosed. I support Obama but Hillary is still a Great First Lady.

Aren't we tired of this question/issue yet. Clinton will not be VP I don't know why this is still news. To those who say they won't vote in November if Clinton isn't VP – have at it. I for one am sick to death of politics.

I really think that he should pick Sen. Clinton to be his VP. They would be such a good team together. They would win the White House in a heart beat.

Thank goodness! Hilary on Obama's ticket is not a dream team and everyone knows it. Her campaign was not synonymous to his and having her in the White House doesn't scream change.

I would love to see John Edwards on the ticket! We need Edwards!

Just a few words for Senator Obama: You had a tough campaign and you won. Your rival was/is the strongest woman in America. One who stood with her head high and was disrespected in every sense of the word, Because she love her country and want what is best, she joined hands with you, to unite the Demogratic party, and confident they will win the General Elections.
You know what a fighter she is. Don't you think it is only fair in all honesty, that you should choose Senator Hilary Clinton as your VP????. If you don't choose her, I will never vote again in any election.

Wow, is Wolfson still campaigning for Hillary? He just won't give up. Why doesn't he get out on the street corner and beg for money to pay back her millions. That would be helpful.

Obama 08

There really doesn't seem to be much of a story here.

Her record has been public forever so who needs a formal vetter for her? This doesn't mean she is not being considered. Obama has said from the beginning that she was on anyone's short list including his. What could a vetter find out that he doesn't already know?

Stirring up trouble, CNN. Gonna get all the Clintonites up in arms for no good reason.

How is this news CNN? We already knew Obama was not going to pick Clinton based on his hiring of Patti Doyle for the VP Chief of Staff.

Why don't you vet the candidates and do some real investigative journalism so us voters can decide?

Let the Clinton crazies begin with the "That's It! I'm voting for McCain!" talk in 3...2...1....

I am glad that she will not be a part of the sinking ship.

He doesn't need her! But he'd do great with her! I AM NOT anti Hillary Clinton however she has attacked and hurt him beyond being able to fairly accept the VP seat.

Obama will be president.

Obama '08

Please allow the Obama camp to choose the right party mate.... why do we not read about McCain choices ... Obama will pick the right person for the job when he is ready. Obama 08

THE BEST TO BE CHOOSEN//

Clinton for VP!!!!!!!!!!!

The one and only thing that will secure my vote is Obama chossing Hillary for VP. If he doesn't then he can just flip flop his own way in November and I'll just stay home. I am quite certin I am not alone in this.

That's the best " news " I have heard since Senator Obama won the primaries. She isn't any more of a Democratic then Lieberman and I think most of us, Democrats, realize that, now. Strong-arming Senator Obama to pay her political debits is reprehensible, after all of her cheap shots against him !! I hope Senator Obama looks at Senator Stabenow, Michigan, she would make an excellent choice for his Vice-Presidential choice !!
SUPPORT OUR TROOPS, BRING THEM HOME, ALIVE AND WHOLE. NOW.

I'd rather him make the best decision not the most popular one. I'd see her doing great in a cabinet position anyways.

Mccain has to win this fall. Democrates should not be rewarded at all.

Oh what do you want to know? She through loyal black supporters under the bus. End of story.

why keep on forcing an odd option? it will never happen. You cannot have your bitterest rival as your deputy , got overthrow you. simple common sense.please be over with hillary.

If this were to come about and the Democratics would actually win, It would be like Al and Bill. Only difference Hillary would still want to run the show. Too bad you Hillary lovers still live in a dream world.

She doesn't need to be vetted, we know she's a liar.

If Hillary can't handle her own financed during her campaign, how is she going to handle the country's finances?

Here's hoping Obama makes the right choice for the times we are living in right now......I know who my choice is and will vote accordingly in November.

CNN loves to show pics of O and Clinton. Obama treats EVERY woman who introduces him at rallies the same way he treated Clinton, with a kiss on the cheek or a hug. He's always considerate towards women, giving them a hand as they go down the stairs etc.
anyway, a Obama/Clinton ticket would be problematic for several reasons, one of which is TWO FIRST TIME minorities on one ticket. Can you imagine the remarks, insinuations etc that will plague Obama. He already faces racism and racist remarks. Look at how people watch EVERY MOVE he makes around Clinton. It's ridiculous. No ,one minority at a time is the most this country can deal with. That's my advice to Obama and co.
I hope they listen.

If Kathleen Sebelius and Chris Dodd are being vetted[Dodd a terrible choice and Sebelius would send the Clinton wing of the party into a frenzy] and Hillary Clinton ISN'T, that actually may be good news for Clinton.

Of course, the only thing keeping Clinton from the VP is Bill. And that's quite a bit of baggage....

We don't want Hillary anywhere near the White House, except for maybe dinner or lunch or breakfast.

It is not uncommon to have the second place candidate as a running mate. EX: Reagan/Bush There was a time when we had more then one VP, but that was a long time ago..

If true ,there goes the election.

If Clinton is on the ticket, I will vote for Obama. WIthout her, I will stay home.

Hillary or no one! Obama is making mistakes-voting for FISA, voting for more war spending-he needs Hillary to get my vote!

We already know her, and she is not qualified to be the Vice President. Her husbands' practices are shady. There's your answer.

Obama 08

Of course not. Obama and Axelrod have such great big egos that they haven't figured out yet that Obama can't win without her as his running-mate.

Eventually, Axelrod will order Obama to beg Hillary to join his ticket.

And then Hillary will not take his calls, will not respond to his pleas, and, in the end, WILL TELL HIM TO FACE HIS IMPENDING ELECTORAL DEFEAT LIKE A MAN.

I wish cnn would stop posting articles with misleading titles. There is no proof anywhere that says Obama does not have Hillary on his list for VP candidates. He is the democratic nominee, he has earned the right to choose his runningmate. Stop the negative media, it will not work this year, there is too much at state in this election!

Well, Obama has just lost my vote.

Hillary may be the only hope for the democrats in November, myself, I will write Hillary on my ballot in November, unless she is the VP. That is not a threat, that is a fact.

Even though I voted for Clinton in the Primary, I'm at least smart enough to know that the differences between the policies of Clinton and Obama are like the eye of the needle by comparison with grand canyon of difference between Obama or Clinton and McBush.

I don't have complete faith that Obama will solve all of our problems but the evidence that McBush is only going to keep us going down the same bad road we are on now is completely incontrovertible!

The time for a change from Republican incompetence is now!

The opening title for this ticker is completely wrong and untrue. Please rephrase the title.

Um, didn't Hillary lose? I respect her, but I am tired of hearing about her. We don't have countless "tickers" about Huckabee do we?

Obama 08 from Texas.

Reagan asked his former rival Bush Sr. on the ticket, Kennedy asked Lyndon Johnson on the ticket, Kerry asked formal rival Edward on the ticket ... If Obama thinks he can go it alone then he is mistaken.

Obama – Clinton 08

Wolfson is just getting his chops wet in his new gig for Fox News. Any wonder why he doesn't know what is going on?

With any luck, he ruled her out.

Obama will win this election. All you have to do to see that is simply count the number of articles about Obama and those about McCain. The press covers Obama over McCain at least 2 to 1.

Clinton getting stuck behind Obama in 2012 is the end of her career. Taking VP under the incompetent one will limit her.

Right from day 1, Obama Huissein not a sincere person.

Hillary never mine. God will make a way out for you.

Kennedy picked Johnson as his running mate, while Reagan picked Bush and Kerry picked Edwards. If Obama really wants Clinton supporters to support him, and he wants to win in November, he ought to select Clinton as his vice president.

As a Clinton supporter, I don't know if I can vote for him if he doesn't select her as his running mate.

Sweet picture.

its so touching, and it just shows how wonderful and awesome and inclusive and fantastic and omniscient and gentle Obama is.

You haven't accomplished anything, other than changing, excuse me, "refining" your positions, BUT WE, THE BLIND SHEEP, LOVE YOU ANYWAY!

Obama you are so great. You and your wife have lived the American dream, and you go out and campaign and talk about how its too hard to make it in America, and we need the government to hold our hands and do everything for us. Thank you for offering the politics of hope(lessness).

You whine and complain about the rich, yet you donated far less than the evil George W. Bush and his wife.

Blah Blah Blah, thats what it sounds like when B.O. talks.

It does not matter who he chooses. He is going to lose in November anyway.

Trini

Rule out Hillary, rule out my vote!

What is FOX so called news interest in Clinton all of the sudden? You would think she was the 2nd coming of Ragen. That is only if you ignore that fact that there is no difference on the issues between her and Obama.

Make no mistake FOX just wants the GOP in office again any way they can get it. Don't be fooled yet again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No Hillary? No democratic vote from me.

Terry McCaullough said that Hillary has worked harder for Barack than any other candidate. LIES, LIES, LIES. She's worked harder for herself because she wants to get her vanity debt paid. She's a piece of work and she got some gullible supporters. They have no money, and she has millions, yet she wants them to pay HER debt, when she ran up a 31 million dollar tab.

I say NO to Hillary and her two-bit husband. Keep out of the the White House, and for that matter Washington, D.C.

Not being formerly vetted, and not being seriously considered are not one and the same. I still put my money on Hilary. I'm a strong Barack suporter, who learned to forgive and forget her shameful campaign during the primaries. Once you get past that......she is without a doubt, a hell of a lady. Go Barrack and Hilary. Let's kick butt in November.

Why would a winner pick a looser?

Well, I'm sure Jesse Jackson has been ruled out.

No Hillary no vote for Obama. Simple as that. He is too new to the game and too "untested" in critical areas. Fancy ideals and soothing rhetoric do not a leader make. McCain will be receiving a lot of cross over votes in light of this.

I wanted her in the ticket for party unity but Obama runs things now and I believe he will make a good choice in Joe Biden

And what makes anyone think that she would want the VP slot?

I don't think Senator Obama should select any current member of congress for his VP. The Democrats need to keep as many seats as they can, hopfully gain some.

This is especially critical in the Senate as currently the parties are split 49-49 with two independents.

A governer or retired congressperson would be better.

One thing the Democrats can't afford is to gain the White House but lose the Senate.

NO – I do NOT want Hillary with Obama – I will NOT vote for obama – he is Not qualified to lead our country – the DNC picked the Wrong guy. The obama group can try to Re-Package him anyway they want – he is still a FRAUD!
Obama can pick anyone for VP – he will Never be elected due to the fact that HE is the problem.
McCain is a good 2nd Choice – we can trust him.

Lets Go Dems!!!

Let's hope this is the case! We need to move forward an the way to do that is without HRC an the old ways of Washington. And YEA YEA YEA you 18 mil supporters of her's ranting about voting for McBush go ahead. If you were more than all talk you'd have ponied up your bucks an get her out of debt and get behind her supporting Obama. But some people are to biased to do whats right.

If Hillary Clinton is not even considered for the Vice Presidency after she recieved over 18 million votes for the Presidency then do not be surprised if Clinton supporters stay home.

Obama is an elitist and extremely out of touch. I am sick of Obamas words. Actions speak louder than words. Obama is an empty suit!

Dodd, Sebelius and McCaskill would be horrible choices. Dodd is corrupt and will leave the ticket open to accusations of hypocrisy. Sebelius has zero foreign policy experience (which Obama needs to balance out his lack thereof) and cannot possibly deliver Kansas. McCaskill also has zero foreign policy experience and her resume is even thinner than Obama's.

Obama claims to have better judgment than everyone else. Let's see him demonstrate that supposed excellent judgment and put Hillary on the ticket. No one else comes close to bringing as much to the table as she does.

It doesn't help when her husband has not disclosed the donors of his library money. Who cares about Hillary–we don't want her as the VP anyway. And I know you Barack haters can't wait to jump on and say you will vote for McCain–well do it.

News Flash:
We don't care, at least we won't be responsible for you tanking the country, and making everyone else pay for $10.00 gas. John McSame, the man who's economic brain said Americans are a bunch of whiners.

O/08

Cnn's daily attempt to stir up trouble.

Dont give Obama another dime, hes going to waste it with Edwards flying gas buring jets to Paris

No Hillary, No Obama!

In my own opinion, I think Senator Barack Obama will be a very good President for the United States of America if Elected, because, I have followed and watched very closely the Illinois Senator right from the begining of the Democratic primary to date, he also has age on his side, he is a community developer and a lot more to say about him.

This should not come as a surprise to anyone. Hillary is not, and should not be, a candidate for VP. She brings far more negatives than positives for Obama. Not only would he have to watch his back (she still cannot be trusted), but he would also have to deal with a ubiquitous Bill Clinton, who can also do a lot of damage, as we've seen in the past.

there was NEVER a chance of this–how could there be? two immature, radical leftists? just in the minds of white and male guilt elites was this ever a possibility

No Hillary for VP, No vote for Obama. Plain and Simple.

Half PUMA,
A loyal Hillary supporter

When Obama loses, I hope he remembers this STUPID MISTAKE and doesn't go around boo-hooing about it.

So?

I started reading this story so keenly and curiously till I read Howard Wolfson told "Fox News"...... why did you have to ruin it for me CNN?? Why mention Fox News? Now all my interest is gone and I am so sad......

I don't care anymore whether Clinton is the VP or not! I so very much wanted her to be, I gave her money, I am an Obama supporter and I wanted the two together for the sake of my country and our future generations. But you ruined my interest. I love you CNN but WHY did you do that to me and that too on a Friday??????

Well sorry Puma .She is just not fit for number 2. We have tried to unite America,but she doesn't seem to want to. I wonder Why.

America 08'

She is not on the ticket ,But he can change our state of dissaray.

We are America !

We used to be a democratic republic.

Now we are a fascist Dictatorship. Lets Get our country back.

In my own opinion, I think Senator Barack Obama will be a very good President for the United States of America if Elected, because, I have followed and watched very closely the Illinois Senator right from the begining of the Democratic primary to date, he also has age on his side, he is a community developer and a lot more to say.

Good, This means he can't win.

That right there show you how united the democrats are... HRC has a strong committed followers, she is known, resources. is stupid not to consider her.

Obama's a fool...is there any way we can stage a mutiny at the convention?

When the time is right Obama will announce his VP pick simple as that and i will support his decision

Whi in the world would Sen. Clinton want to be VP for OBAMA???

She certainly would not want to be tied to a man that is going to FAIL.

Obama will be worse that the last 8 years with Bush.

Hillary should run as an Independant if only to take away voted from
Obama to make sure McCain wins.

I am one of the 18 million who went out and voted for the best candiate for the Presidency.....Sen, Hillary Rodham Clinton

.....and if obama fails to ask Clinton to join his ticket: I will be voting for Mccain, or not going to the polls in November- end of story.

Obama/Clinton 08, 12

Good!
Obama/Edwards 08!

Now that his on Fox, Wolfson has no credibility what so ever.

--------------------------------
It’s the Supreme Court, Stupid!

Why should he have to vet her? It's been done. Now he just needs to evaluate the pros and cons that she brings compared to other potential candidates.

Please CNN why would you even give voice to Howard Wolfson, no one cared about what he had to say when he was running Senator Clinton's campaign and now that he is on Fox we know why she lost. Why would you think that Senator Obama's camp would tell him anything.Obama and his people are smarter than that. Barack hussein Obama 08

Connie"Hussein"Sturgeon from Indiana

WHAT??? Barrack InSane Obama!!!

Well Howard I hope you are right that she isn't being considered. I'm a female voter that has been turned off by the way Hillary has behaved in the campaining process. She and her husband have become a problem for the democrates by their elitistist attitudes. They both just need to go away.........

If he doesn't pick Clinton, he doesn't get my vote. To not even consider her is a slap in the face to everyone who voted for her. I will write-in Clinton on my Nov. ballot.

GOOD, we do NOT want Hillary on the losing ticket with Obama.

Obama will self destruct and we don't want Hillary to be any part of that destruction!!!

Go Hillary!!

Bye, bye Obama!!!

Thank goodness! Why would Hillary want to board that corrupted, sinking ship? It would mar her reputation forever.

Hillary 2012

Don't try to change the subject CNN. Why is "Whiner Gate" Not at the top? Also, what about the vote that McSame was bashing Senator Obama about not being present when he forgot that he wasn't there himself? And to make matters worse, what about McSame’s other advisor talking about Viagra being covered by insurance and birth control not being covered and McSame stating that is wrong. Problem is he voted against making Insurance companies cover birth control. But then again, he can’t be required to remember what he says, right? LOL!!!

My decision is simple really – no Hillary on the ticket – no vote for Obama. I actually have no regrets jumping from the Dem side over to Senator McCain. Mr McCain has been able to reach over the aisle on many many issues; Senator McCain's views on Iraq appear to be inching ever more closely with the view of Obama – and barack continues to waffle and change on just about every position out there. I also trust Senator McCain, and I believe he has the fortitude to take a position and not bow down to pressure and change it. Barack, on the other hand, does not seem to be able to make up his mind on anything, and once he does make a decision, he seems to bend to political pressure and changes it

Wow...this is the kind of speculation that leads to rumors and negative feelings. It stands to reason that Clinton would not go through the normal vetting process...after all he just spent over a year campaigning against her in a very tight race...I think they know all they need to know about her.

Oh...please. The VP isn't announced until a week or two before the party convention. Hillary Clinton has plenty of time between now and then to get vetted. Whats the rush !!!

As a staunch Obama supporter including financially from day one and looking at how she acted shamelessly during the campaign I have no respect for her and could not vote for him if she were on the ticket. She could not manage her campaign or its finances how could she run our country.

Not surprising, considering the fact that Obama thinks he is better than Clinton and all of her poor, uneducated, blue collar supporters.

What a shame because if he doesn't pick her for veep, he's likely to loose a large portion of her 18 million supporters, myself included.

One can only hope!

Too bad for him, but great for the rest of us... She is his only chance, but the idea of her regularly being subjected to his unfounded arrogance is really too much for most people with common sense. She is the better candidate and she is too good to be his VP. I won't be dissappointed, but it can guarantee that I won't be voting for him!

Okay lets see how many clinton bashers we get? If he doesnt he doesn't. I saw that women for obama breakfeast and she did a wonderful stump speech, so i honeslty think if he dosen't use her to the best of his ablity its's his and the country's loss. Okay Okay I know here it comes Clintons are evil the devils and selfish, whatever I have long come to the conclusion that you can't change anyone's mind's unless they are open, but I still need to speak my peace.

I hate to say it,,,but it may be a good thing that he doesnt have her with him... When he goes down in Nov. because her supporters vote for McCain she wont look so bad. Unless everyone is in a daze,, NUMBER 2 means nothing. I am a Democrat voting for McCain this time unless the DNC gets it right.

I'm a republican for Obama!!! Never wanted Hillary at the top but I do believe she could be a very good VP. She just had to many connections to lobbiests! As VP she can just tell the lobbiests her boss doesn't want them anymore. Solves problem. AND I do believe she would be a great VP and could head up the National Health Committee!!!

CNN THIS STUPID TITLE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH OBAMA. WE WANT FAIR NEWS.

STOP TRYING TO DIVIDE DEMOCRATS.

BARACK HUISSEIN OBAMA/HILLARY 08 AND 12

The Dream ticket is a media manifestation. It is not a realistic or good choice for VP. This country, somehow has given the highest office to just 2 families for the last 20+ years. The Bush's and the CLinton's will not go quietly. Now they pressure the true choice of the people to give power to one of the two families who have had power for far too long.

THe Clinton era has ended. It's time we all accepted it and moved on.

NO CLINTON NO VOTE FORM THIS LIFE LONG DEM. NO I WILL NOT VOTE FOR McCAIN SERVED MY COUNTRY FOR 7 YR TO PICK WHO I GET TO VOTE FOR .

To Clinton supporters who start threatening the world with support McCain:

This man is no supporter of women or Clinton. He allowed her be called the b word and laughed about if in Nov 2007 at a campaign event.

He planned a fundraiser with the man from Texas who says women should lie back and enjoy it once rape is inevitable. And said he had forgotten the comments because they were 16 or 8 years ago. Like victims ever forget.

And dont even start on his promise of supreme court judge.

Of course she's not being vetted. She'd BEEN vetted for years! I mean there was tons of investigations into her affairs, and what did her bitter Republican rivals find? NOTHING. Obama 2008.

Don't try to change the subject CNN. Why is "Whiner Gate" Not at the top? Also, what about the vote that McSame was bashing Senator Obama about not being present when he forgot that he wasn't there himself?

Puma Pay Hilary's Debt

put your money where your mouth is ...

And start the crazy republican PUMA comments
5.........4.........3.........2...........1............

Hillary's people kill me! One minute they are demanding that Barack pick her as his VP, next minute they are saying it is totally his choice, then they start back talking again by airing complaints that he is not vetting her.

At this point, I pray that Barack does not bring her on board as he will have to worry abou allof the drama that her team brings with it. On her own merit, Hillary deserves strong consideration but Barack has run a very well organized and cohesive campaign. this is the same way that I believe he will run the White House. Team Hillary has been anything but that an could seriously ruin an Obama presidency.

WHEW!!!! HASTA LA VISTA, BABY!!

NO MORE BUSHES
NO MORE CLINTONS

Why vet Clinton when you know she's the only one for the job?
