that Barack has ruled out a VP slot. But that's not what he said.

What he said is:

"Well, you know, I think it’s premature. You won’t see me as a vice presidential candidate -- you know, I’m running for president. We have won twice as many states as Senator Clinton, and have a higher popular vote, and I think we can maintain our delegate count."

The implication is that he won't run as VP because he'll be running as Prez...not that he would never consider a VP position.

Even so, I can't see how he and Hillary would ever run together at this point. They may have worked together in the past, but the race has gotten too personal and too ugly for them to be on the same ticket in November.
