Hillary Not VP.

Coming straight from the Democratic Convention, it is (pretty much) official. Hillary will not be the Vice Presidential candidate. Here is the line-up, yet again from the Dems themselves:

2008 DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION HEADLINE SPEAKERS
  • Monday August 25th’s headline prime-time speaker will be Michelle Obama.
  • Senator Hillary Clinton, who is a champion for working families and one of the most effective and empathetic voices in the country today, will be the headline prime-time speaker on Tuesday August 26th.
  • The headline prime-time speaker on Wednesday August 27th will be Barack Obama’s Vice Presidential nominee.
  • On Thursday, August 28th, the DNCC will throw open the doors of the Convention and move to INVESCO Field at Mile High so that more Americans can take part in the fourth night of the Convention as Barack Obama accepts the Democratic nomination.
Sorry to be the one to break it everyone, but Barack isn't jumping for the dream ticket idea. It wouldn't make sense for Hillary to headline two nights in a row, and also the wording is quite distinct in separating "Senator" Hillary Clinton and the "Vice Presidential Nominee".
