If she were quite as mission critical as you believe, she would not have lost out to Obama in the ‘08 cycle. She, like other politicians, is a tool of the real power brokers. Her strength among political peers was her viciousness and mob-like preparedness to use brutal methods to advance her claims to the spoils that drop from the top table. Her political influence has waned, but she remains dangerous by virtue of the accumulated dirt. If she were in anyway trusted, she’d be running again in place of Joe. She’s now a threat that needs to be contained, rather an asset to be wielded. I wouldn’t be surprised to see her thrown to the wolves by those who own her. I’d expect all kinds of horse trading and safeguards being placed in advance of any such move - maybe that’s why it’s taken so long.
