ANNCR: She won millions of votes. But isn’t on his ticket. Why? For speaking the truth.

On his plans:

HILLARY CLINTON: “You never hear the specifics.”

ANNCR: On the Rezko scandal:

HILLARY CLINTON: “We still don’t have a lot of answers about Senator Obama.”

ANNCR: On his attacks:

HILLARY CLINTON: “Senator Obama’s campaign has become increasingly negative.”

ANNCR: The truth hurt. And Obama didn’t like it.

    His arrogance wouldn't let him risk the chance that he may have won the election because Hillary was on the ticket.

    Barack Obama is an idiot for not picking her. He will lose for that reason. As a Hillary supporter will not be voting.

    Senator Clinton proved that despite the coordinated efforts of the Hussein Obama campaign, DNC, and our untrustworthy Media to discredit her nomination bid, Clinton still managed to pull even with Hussein Obama through the power of the voters. Clinton has proved is more capable and more powerful and more qualified than Obama ever will be.

    In a way, some of us are happy to see Clinton off Obama's VP list (well the point is moot now). This frees Clinton up to serve our country rather than to play to the unhip tunes of the Democratic Party.

    In fact, Clinton should consider an Independent run with a dream-team ticket of Clinton-Rendell.

    Let's be real it's just too many Chefs and not enough cooks... Who would really be running the show her or him and let's not forget Bill... It's nothing against her but she's just too much right now... If (and I doubt it but..) Senator Obama cant make considerable progress to correct what's happened over the past 8 years and we as voting Americans can't believe in him a new leader will arise in 4 years time and we move ahead thatt's the true American Spirit even if it meant civil war eventually balance will restore it's self... We've gone through 8 years of idiocy I think we can give him a chance he can't make things worse, And if he's good enough for Ted Kennedy then he's good enough for america!!!

    The media has given Obama a free ride and the fact that florida and michigan wasn't counted shows Hillary would have won. It shows that he knows she is better then him and his ego couldn't handle that fact.

    The negative tone of the primary race has made her an impossible running mate. The above comments in the poll description is good evidence of this. To make Hillary the running mate would open up the Obama campaign to criticism straight from the mouth of Hillary. Hillary would have to recant and reverse herself on numerous issues in which she has made inflammatory remarks against Obama, and she would end up looking like a hypocrite. Not the best manuevering for a man trying to put his best foot forward. Imagine all the potential negative ads the McCain campaign could run featuring Hillary bashing Obama. Had the primary race been less negative, Hillary would've been an obvious choice due to her enduring popularity among certain democrats. However, this is not the case and the Obama camp was wise to not select her.

    The question I'd like answered by the man himself (Hussein Obama) is... "Why are you, Obama, not proud of your heritage as most American are of their heritage from around the world? (What are you trying to hide, eh?)

    The correct answer, to me, is not here. Barack is smart enough to recognize that this would create an unneccessary power struggle. People would also attack him by saying that this was another term for Bill Clinton. Not smart politics.

    Threat? EGO? Damn, just a few months ago she was negatively speaking about him. I would pass on her too...He's looking to win, but he's not desperate! How could you trust someone like that all of a sudden...I dont car how many votes she has. I believe she would have considered her had not she spoken badly of him.
