WOW!!!! I think we can all agree that this is not good!
Morris: Kerry Likely to Tap Hillary for VP
If Sen. John Kerry winds up as the Democratic nominee next summer, the first phone call he's likely to make is to Sen. Hillary Clinton - to ask her to be his running mate.
That's the prediction of Dick Morris, whose advice made Bill Clinton the only Democratic president since FDR to win re-election.
"Now that Howard Dean is clearly not going to be the nominee, there is a very good chance that Hillary will be the vice presidential candidate," Morris told Fox News Channel's "Hannity & Colmes" Wednesday night.
"I would flat-out predict that whoever wins this nomination makes the first phone call to Hillary to ask her to run," he said.
Hillary should take the offer from Kerry or whoever else sews up the nomination, says Morris, as the best way to assure Sen. Clinton her own stint as president.
"If I were advising her right now, I would say take it, because you're not going to lose by a lot," Morris urged. "And if a Democrat wins, if Kerry wins, how is she going to stay fresh for eight years in the Senate?"
The one-time White House political guru noted also that if someone other than Hillary takes the VP slot and wins, she'll have another rival to contend with for her own White House bid.
