if Hillary wants a shot at POTUS in 2016 ....the leesor risk is to not be Obama's VP.

Why would she take on the risk of being tainted by what ever the Obama lame duck scenario will bring.

If she did, she would have to run against what Obama did and mostly didn't do. She would then have to adopt the Obama strategy of blaming the previous POTUS for what she could/would inherit from the Obama presidency.

I am not even in the slightest convinced Clinton would sway those who are dissatisfied with Obama's performance to give him 4 more years.

Since we are all guessing (some hoping)....I just don't think, if she really wants a clear shot at running strong in 2016, she will take on the risk of Obama.
