Don’t worry, Joe: It ain’t so. Why Obama won’t run with Hillary Clinton.

No.

Not even if you see an airborne swine. Not even if they’re driving a Zamboni in Hades.

When you read a rumination--or recommendation, or prediction--that President Barack Obama will replace Vice President Joe Biden with Hillary Clinton on the Democratic ticket--the odds are overwhelming that its creator was inspired by two thoughts:

1. My deadline is an hour away.

2. I got nothing.

....
There’s one way to know if I’m wrong about this. If sometime in the next month or two Biden comes out for an antiabortion amendment to the Consitution, the end to collective bargaining for public employee unions, and the cutoff of all aid to Israel, it means he’s decided to give his boss the running room he would need to make the switch.

whether it is a rumination, recommendation, prediction or discussion of people writing about it, it means that the writer's deadline is an hour away and he's got nothing.
