I agree-- what he did was in the best interests of the country and the
party. I can appreciate that she wants to plan her next moves, given
that it was a close contest, but we need to move on. Obama and Clinton
definitely should be talking about how to bring everyone together for
the common goal of defeating McCain, and what her "reward" should be
for doing the great job that she has. I don't think though that she
belongs as VP on the ticket, or that she wants that.
