Making her a VP could allow to act as a covert obstructionist to undermine Obama's Presidency.

Also, let's not forget 10's of millions of voters in this country since 1981 are sick and tired of having either a Bush or Clinton a either President or Vice President. Thus for the last 28 years America has been ruled by Family Monarchy's.

I think Obama will take his chances with the millions of new voters registered in the primaries and with the additional of million of new voters Obama will register for the general election, in conjunction with the throngs of millions of defecting moderate Republicans and Independent voters to win the W.H.

With this strategy, perhaps it will be just enough to off-set the 30-50% of Hillary voters who will vote for McCain in 2008.

Obama, his advisers and the voters just need to have faith and believe the momentum of change is so powerful, that they can put to rest the old guard of politics in both parties (the Bush's and Clinton's' and McCain's') and set America on a new path for the 21st Century.

The Obama campaign will believe that its better to loose b/c you stood by your principles than to give into the politics of the 20th Century and the Old Guard who represents these archaic out dated principles.

Obama isn't the change America is looking for, Rasta, and his credentials, albeit look good on paper, don't qualify him to be President... Obama should step aside and become Hillary's VP for the next eight years, and then run for the Presidency with some real experience...
