Source: Clinton has been told she's not the VP pick
[cnn-photo-caption image= http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2008/images/08/22/art.clintonvp.gi.jpg caption="Clinton has been informed she will not be Obama's VP."] (CNN) - Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Senator Barack Obama has ruled out Senator Hillary Clinton as his vice presidential running mate, a senior Democratic official told CNN on Friday night.
Clinton - Obama's main rival during the primary season - has been informed by Obama's campaign that she is not his choice to be his vice presidential candidate, the source said.
Guess I'll be voting for McCain now.
Also, I hope his security detail has been ramped up.
YOU HAVE LOST OBAMA...... MCCAIN 08
BARACK OBAMA...THIS IS A BIG MISTAKE YOU WILL EVER MAKE!!! AS OF NOW...YOU WILL LOSE THE ELECTION BECAUSE OF WHAT YOU JUST DID...MCCAIN WILL WIN NOW BECAUSE OF WHAT YOU DID! WILL WILL REGRET IT!
HILLARY 2012!!!!
Ach!
*Hides from angry PUMAs*
She would be a good Vice President. You Hillary Supporters still need to get on board. I'm confused on how you can support John McCain and Not Barack Obama. You were obviously supporting her for the wrong reasons.
Obama 08
Good. She can do better than that. She can do it in 2012.
What a sad day! He is going to lose many of Hillary's supporters.
he'll lose then...
This confirms it, Obama – You just lost me and my wife's vote. You will lose and you should be counting on that McCain 08!
CNN is trash. It is deliberately using words to convey an impression that Obama is rude in dealing with several VP finalists. The fact is, Obama is just following the standard procedure of vetting possible candidates and notifying them of his decision in a polite way. But CNN has an agenda and this is how candidates are destroyed.
UH OH... bad move obama. now I guarantee you will lose in november.
obama will lose..NO Hillary No white house
Hillary for president 2012
Maccain 2008
if this is true, senator obama lost more votes than he could bear and we will see a Republican in the White House in January 2009!
I would have run as an Independent if I were her. I am voting Republican – Obama and his wife are a danger to this country in my estimation.
Obama lost my vote for good.
Thank goodness, no Clinton!
Now my decision is 110% final I WILL VOTE FOR JOHN MCCAIN FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
Only a loony would choose that looser.
...on to 2012...
HA HAAAAA. Owned.
So much for party unity.
Here come the "I'm voting for McCain now!!!" comments...
Obama and Hillary share 95% of their views.
McCain and Bush share 95% of their views.
u lost my vote mister Obama and so many others. Big loser.
