Obama was gracious toward her, as he acknowledged his historic, amazing, wonderful victory in attaining presumptive nominee status for presidential candidate for the Democratic Party. Yet, throughout the 24-news hour channel coverage last night, this glorious news was undermined by her clumsy "leak" of the information that yes, she was "available" to be vice president. And she is supposed to have the best interests of the party at heart? She's supposed to be the consumate politician? I don't think so.
I was not quite six years old when JFK selected LBJ to be his running mate in 1960 and that was no match made in heaven either - yet, successful, as far as the electoral result. Of course the cliche is that politics makes strange bedfellows and who knows what will yet happen. Today, tomorrow - these will be interesting days. If the ticket becomes Obama/Clinton - by HIS choice - I will support it all the way. But, she is SO lacking in class - I'm sorry - it should have been his night, his moment, and she just stepped in it.
