Hillary Clinton...subtle push out the door! VP dream fades into oblivion...

The shadow knows...

If Hillary can't read the writing on the wall, then maybe she needs to stop in to a local gypsy to get a load of the score.

Pundits are snidely noting behind her back that there are ominous signs the VP ticket has most assuredly eluded her grasp. In fact, many are speculating that Obama's dream team is about to subtly usher the former Presidential hopeful out the back door.

Former Clinton aides have confirmed that Bill's better half is tentatively scheduled to speak on the second night of the Democratic National Convention, for instance.

Ouch!

Talk about a stake in the heart!

In the best case scenario a potential running mate is normally slated to rev up the Dems at a glittering gala on "opening night".

Notwithstanding the obvious, there are other potent signs that she's getting the "heave ho".

The Obama campaign has not asked Hillary to furnish financial records or personal background materials normally requested to single out potential Vice Presidential nominees.

Well, there could be two reasons for the latter.

They know Hillary is "broke", for one. Hapless Hill went bust trying to break bread with the "old boys network", if you recall.

On the other hand, maybe they've opted to forgo on that formality; after all, they'd want 'em in the near future, not around "doomsday".

No matter how you slice it, looks like Senator Clinton will be eating humble pie come fall!
