"Do NOT give her a veto over the VP nominee
That way she can tactfully say no to another woman making it onto the ticket to steal her spotlight. She could ensure that none of the potential 2012 candidates get positioned for a run in case Obama should fail in November."
AND THIS WOULD HELP THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND/OR WOMEN IN POLITICS EXACTLY HOW???
No thanks, I'd rather he just did what he's started doing, namely ignoring her.
You do realize that Dan Conley was extrapolating based upon his experience in another political campaign entirely. Everything he said about what Hillary might want is speculation only. I have read elsewhere that it is common for an opponent who wants to come to an agreement to help with campaign debt.
Sure Obama can ignore Clinton. No problemo.
It's just that he could pay a big price for doing so. If Clinton signals to her supporters that he has been dismissive, we can take our support elsewhere or just not vote for him. Even if she is not the nominee, I can write her in. If Obama doesn't need my support, I'm cool with it.
