While I like DT's humorous "Godfather" assessment of why Hillary doesn't get on the ticket, I have to agree. I just cannot see how Obama can afford to put her on because that means Bill comes along. And I think Bill is awesome and is the best politician of the past 30 years. But Obama cannot have a former president looking over his shoulder constantly, or whispering in Hillary's ear "Tell Barrack to do it this way..." etc.

Honestly, she's 60 years old - why would she want to play 2nd fiddle at this point in her career? I think she brings a lot to the table and would be an asset in the administration, but not as VP. I think losing will always be stuck in the back of her mind and is something that she will not be able to get over if she were the VP.
