Clinton on Obama and RFK
You Decide on the RFK comment.
Elite Media on Clinton, Obama and RFK
Lets see what the elite media think of the RFK comment.
New York Post: Reports that the comment has angered some of the leaders in the African - American community, has not gone down well with the Obama Camp.
New York Daily News: States the following, " Clinton has killed her own chances of being vice president. She doesn't deserve to be elected dog catcher anywhere now. " I ask the reader can you see Obama standing on a platform with Hillary Clinton now as his VP. If was Hillary Clinton would get out of the race now, today, any more comments like this she might find herself facing a primary fight for her own Senate seat and with no help from a President Obama.

Clinton on Obama and RFK
BBC News: Reports on the remarks by Hillary Clinton that it was not unusual for the Democratic Race to go through June, she used the example of her own husband in 1992 but also the tragic assassination of Senator Robert Kennedy in 1968. This final remark could cost her the VP spot, due to the nature of Presidential Politics one should never directly bring this up, to many nuts jobs out there, Hillary Clinton has said sorry, but the damage is done, no VP spot for Hillary Clinton. One can add this major mistake to the mistakes of her campaign in 08.

More on Clinton and the VP Spot
New York Times: Reports on the push to get the VP spot for Hillary Clinton. One has to think this is coming from the Clinton Camp, the political war is over, and it seems that Hillary Clinton has had enough of the Senate, plus lets be honest the Senate was a step to the Presidency for Clinton, more years as a backbencher would not appeal. Either way a VP spot would help her if Obama wins or losses.
VP Spot for Dems
Time: Reports that Bill Clinton wants Hillary Clinton to be the VP. Obama should pick one of her supporters, the VP should tick the following boxes, white, old, male, foreign Policy experience and to the right of Obama.
Crewe and Nantwich Result
The gain in the By - Election of Crewe and Nantwich and the swing of 17.6% to the Conservative Party could see the men in Boiler suits coming around to 10 Downing Street to inform their Colleague that time is over, the Time and Motion Man, ( the UK Voters ) have found him wanting and they need to replace him. I confirm my view that Gordon Brown wont be the Leader of the Labour Party at the next general election.

Convention Fight ?
RCP Blog: The general idea was the Hillary Clinton was looking for the VP spot with Obama, even if he didn't want her, now RCP Blog reports that the Clinton Camp could take the fight to the convention. Is Florida and Michigan really that close to the heart of Hillary Clinton or is this very good blackmail, in other words, give me the VP spot or else, if I was cynical and a Clinton that is what I would do, but then I am not cynical.
