Clinton running for VP?Thursday, March 06, 2008 by Dave Winer. Hillary Clinton: "Look, I have said that Senator McCain will bring a lifetime of experience to the campaign, I will bring a lifetime of experience and Senator Obama will bring a speech that he gave in 2002. I think that is a significant difference." It's been pointed out elsewhere that you say stuff like that if you want the VP nomination, the Republican VP nomination. In other words she's as much a Democrat as Joe Lieberman is. |
