The Audacity Of Giving One’s Rival the Shaft…
After the brutal Democratic primary, Barack Obama refused to even vet Hillary Clinton as a possible running mate.
This is after he said that Hillary “would be on anyone’s short list.”
(1 minute 25 seconds)
Snobama did not even think of vetting her- Not even for appearances!
The Politico reported:
There’s one Democrat who would seem to have little or no chance of being picked by Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) to be his running mate – his former opponent, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.).
But it’s not for the reason you think.
Obama has often said, most recently on NBC’s “Meet the Press” on July 27, that Clinton “would be on anybody’s short list.”
But apparently not his.
“She was never vetted,” a Democratic official reported. “She was not asked for a single piece of paper. She and Senator Obama have never had a single conversation about it. How would he know if she’d take it?”
The official also said Clinton never met with Obama’s vetting team of Eric Holder and Caroline Kennedy.
Now that’s audacity!
