2. I don't think Obama will dump Biden for HRC. Nor do I think HRC would accept, but not because she had been "dissed" or "snubbed". Whatever the Clinton's are, they are pretty shrewd politically. I think she realizes that IF Obama is elected, his administration will be a disaster. She wants to be in the Senate - snipping at him when things turn the wrong way. Just my thoughts...
Agreed.

Additionally, I think she hopes that JM wins, that way she can beat the "We need a Dim in the whitehouse" drum for 4 years and be a shoe-in for the next round.
