What would it take for Clinton to concede defeat? An insider remembers -- and draws lessons from -- the backroom deals that ended another brutal, racially charged Democratic slugfest.
  • Hillary Auxiliary

    Dream on! Mrs. Clinton is no Wilder. After learning of an idealistic pact made at Georgetown between Bill and Hillary Clinton regarding the presidency of both, I would say that she will not leave without a place on the ticket. Period. And the Veep slot may be palatable because we have seen how it can be managed and applied (look at the current administration). It ain't policy, it's the presidency. And it may not be "equal," but rather ego after all. As for negotiations, who has the cabrones to tell the Hillmeister to bail? She'll stay on until Denver. Certainly she will not listen to Obama, absent at least the Veep slot. So who shoves? Bubba? Get a grip! Howard Dean? Not likely. I don't believe he even really knows the Clintons. So who might the kingmaker in the DNP be? There lies the clue to resolution of this. And I can't think of one. Unless it's Jimmie Carter, from whom we have heard darn little lately.
