Reply #64: I don't know the answer to that question, because only Barack and Hillary do. [View All]

Obama will not arbitrarily choose someone for VP before the convention and make an announcement about it and thereby slap Hillary in the face. It would be stupid to do so and I don't believe that Barack even operates that way or that it is in his nature. He will have to consult with her on this position at the very, very minimum and if she has told him that she wants it, then he will offer it to her and it will be a card kept held tightly until the last moment. I think that the real reason that Patti Solis Doyle was picked to be the VP Chief of Staff was not as a "non-welcome mat" to Hillary, but precisely one to let Mark Penn and his ilk know that they will never be part of anything remotely involved with Barack. Penn sacrificed Doyle to save his own greedy neck and it is Penn, not Doyle who the Obama people really dislike.
