What would the firestorm be if Barack Obama had said something like this in the primaries?

Question

Remember when Bill and Hill were pushing the idea that they would make Obama number 2 on their ticket.

Answer 1

Not much - as the VP DOES have a nebulous position!

Answer 2

It's a good question

There is no specific duties for a VP except to vote to break ties in Senate votes.

I comes down to what the person running for President prefers them to do.

What is Joe Biden going to be doing as Obama's VP?

Answer 3

Obama is the nominee.  There's no way Palin is qualified to be McCain's vp.

Answer 4

Ouch.  I assure you, this clip will be in a commercial within the next few weeks.

Answer 5

That would have never happened, and thank goodness he is going to be the president.

Answer 6

Obama would be a Great Act on the old Vaudeville Circuit; not in a Major Political campaign....lol...!!

Answer 7

the 44-year-old Palin, who was selected as Sen. John McCain's running mate today, is now the focus of her own state ethics investigation as part of the so-called "Troopergate" scandal, a bizarre controversy involving the firing of a state police chief and his reluctance to fire an Alaska state trooper, Palin's former brother-in-law who has been involved in a bitter custody fight with her younger sister.
