@ricksanchezcnn As SOS, I think she'd be in Obama's business ( and subsequently undermining him) as much or more had she been selected VP.

I think it would be prudent for the Democrats to build up a female politician (not Hillary) for Obama's VP pick in 2012... jus sayin...

The biggest criticism around Democratic camps was she was too nice or didn"t bite enough when she gave the State of the Union Rebutal. What would that solve though? It might make us already on the left feel a little more sure of ourselves, but it will just push back against those in the middle and on the right.
She absolutely went after Bush"s policies, but did so in a way that some of our better posters here do; by that I mean that she didn"t give the opposition something to be angry at, or attack her personally for, but made it so that only the actual policy issues could be debated. That is a debate the Dems will every time this year.
I don"t know how many of those on the left that criticise her for being "too nice" saw Faux Noise after her rebuttal, but if they had, they would have seen Brit Hume looking absolutely stunned. He couldn"t counter her arguments on the facts of the issues, but more importantly, had no openings to get his little digs in either.
Sebelius left a Faux talking head speechless, that is no small task. Seeing his face, after she spoke- that"s when I decided I wanted her to be Obama(well, Kucinich at the time)"s VP.

Two-term Governor Kathleen Sebelius of Kansas is the perfect pick. How is this not obvious to anyone?
-After Richardson, she is far and away the most experienced and qualified candidate out there. A Gov, a Rep, an Insurance Commisioner who actually fought, won, and said no to the insurance companies.
-She brings in wide reaching support from both parties in a redder than red state, yet still carries the same progressive values, ethics, policies, and ideals that Obama and other true-blue Dems do.
-You want to bridge the divide that Hillary left? Sebelius is everything Hillary is, minus the negatives, and everything she is not- clean, likable, and truely experienced.
-Again, she is a Governor, with actual Executive experience. Where did the idea suddenly come from that we should have two Senators on the ticket? Bad idea, besides we need them where they are.

Group pushing Clinton as VP choice secretly
tied to her campaign
Article By Margaret Talev McClatchy Newspapers

A group called VoteBoth has been leading the charge for Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama to team up on the Democratic ticket.
But the people behind it come from just one of those camps " Clinton's " and one of their goals may be keeping Clinton's White House prospects alive.
The group's founder, Adam Parkhomenko, until recently worked as an assistant to Patti Solis Doyle, who was Clinton's campaign manager until February. Parkhomenko in 2003 founded the Draft Hillary for President Committee.
VoteBoth's spokesman is Sam Arora. He's a law school student who in recent years worked for Clinton and for former Democratic National Committee chairman Terry McAuliffe, Clinton's presidential campaign chairman.

VoteBoth's Facebook page lists three others as administrators, all with Clinton connections.
One is a Richmond-based Democratic technology consultant, who was quoted in a New York Times story about the Iowa Democratic Party's 2006 Jefferson-Jackson dinner, where he was passing out "Hillary for President" stickers.VoteBoth first filed with the Federal Election Commission on April 8, two weeks before the Pennsylvania primary that Clinton won and that was considered a crucial window for her comeback.

As Obama's strong showing made him all but certain to clinch the nomination, VoteBoth leaders began putting themselves in the spotlight, sending regular press releases, posting blogs and appearing in interviews.
