West Is the Best Wrote:The Obama campaign has been rumored to be laying the ground work for Biden's exit and Hillary's entrance to give the Obama campaign some energy against the McCain/Palin Steam Roller. The media has all but ignored this issue.

Recent events prove that Biden is on the way off the ticket:

Why would Hillary "rescue" the ticket when its in her best interest for Obama to lose in November?

She then would be the front runner for 2012.

Outside of doing whatever it takes for Obama and the DNC to give her back her $11 million and to retire her campaign debt, I don't see Hillary really inclined to help, espcially after being dumped on by the other Congressional Democrats.

If anyone thinks Hillary is going to throw her name in the ring, when Obama is losing and she has a chance at '12, you're SERIOUSLY deluding yourselves. Not a chance in hell.

So true.

Has this ever happened before? What is the original "source" for this rumor?

So true, the only way Barry would consider dumping Biden to add HRC is if he thought he was going to lose. HRC wants that because she'll most likely get the nomination in 2012 if Barry loses.

What part of "takeover a la LBJ over JFK" do you not understand? ;-) As VP, HRC would be eyeing the President slot sooner than '12.

No argument here. That's why I am emphatic that it's a completely historical analogy. I have no interest or knowledge of anything current.
