Or why Hillary Clinton is any more qualified to be president than Barack Obama.

Former Democrat Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle, an Obama supporter, throws Hillary Clinton under the bus on Sunday’s Meet The Press.

Former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle (D-S.D.) on Sunday questioned Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton’s (N.Y.) pitching of herself as the most experienced candidate in the Democratic presidential race, suggesting her years as first lady do not add much to her foreign policy credentials.

“I worked with her; I know what a good first lady she was,” Daschle said. “But it would be hard for me to draw some degree of connection between being a first lady and having the experience to be the commander in chief.

“I don’t think anyone can look at her experience as first lady and say, for some reason, that qualifies her to run for president of the United States.”

On Barack Obama accepting the number two spot as the Democrat Vice President nominee with Hillary at the top of the ticket.

The Money Quote:

“Well, Tim, it’s really a rare occurrence, maybe the first time in history, that the person who’s running number two would offer the person who’s running number one the number two position. What Barack has said is that’s way premature. He doesn’t have any interest in being vice president. He’s going to be our presidential nominee.”

In other words, Team Obama is telling the Clinton Cabal that he will go to the Denver Convention in the fall to fight for the Presidential nomination. And, why not?

Obama HAS won the most elected Democrat delegates.

    You know I would have to say I agree with the guy. I really don’t think he threw Hillary under the bus as much as he was just telling his side of the story. I try not to get to wrapped up in all the political nonsense. Although this election is going to be a good one. I’m up for changes.
