According to the Associated Press (AP), 2008 United States Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has told lawmakers in New York that she is “open to being Obama’s vice presidential candidate”.
Earlier, the AP reported that Clinton would concede her race for the White House tonight during a speech in New York City, something her campaign denied.
“The AP story is incorrect. Senator Clinton will not concede the nomination this evening,” said Clinton campaign officials in a statement to the press.
The report comes from New York lawmakers who participated in a conference call with Clinton. Nydia Velazquez, a New York lawmaker, stated to Clinton that she should seek being the running mate for Obama because it would win him more votes from the Hispanic and African American populations in November.
“I am open to it [being vice presidential candidate] if it would help the party’s prospects in November,” stated Clinton, speaking in a conference call with other politicians.

I can’t see how anyone can confuse “ducking for cover” with bullets flying for a stroll towards the press and others with your daughter walking calmly along side you.
It’s not a “mistake” it’s a picture she painted and then stepped into long enough to believe it.
The difference between a neurotic and psychotic is that neruotics build castles in the air and psychotics live in them.
