On this same evening she told the Associated Press that she would accept a VP position with Obama. Sounds to me like she is leveraging Obama for a spot on the ticket.

Here is Obama's first Presidential Decision. Does he bow down to the pressure and add her to the ticket. Or does he pass and risk alienating half of the Democratic voters who voted for Hillary.

Looks like a lose/lose situation in my opinion. Here she steals his limelight on the night he goes over the top in delegates and leaves her option to stay in open. Interesting as well is all the States Hillary has won in the last two months even though during this time Obama has been the presumptive nominee.

Add to this the recent poll taken in some of the early States which went to Obama asking "if you knew then what you know now about Obama would you have changed your vote". The number of respondents who answered yes means trouble for the Democrats.
