    Hillary: Like your drunken aunt

    As Mike Barnacle said and I paraphrase:

    Hillary is like your drunken aunt, who's opening another bottle of wine while all your other guests are headed home.

    She will NOT be Obama's VP. To hitch the "Old Politics" of Hillary to the "New Politics" Obama claims to offer would fly in the face of everything he says he represents. Not to mention the fact that when it comes to baggage, the Clintons would be showing up with two steamer trunks apiece.
