On the other hand if he does rein Hillary -- and you gotta know the media would find out about it -- then the real "fun"would begin. Bill would be furious. (Red-face furious) He would start talking to reporters "on background." Bill would again allege that Obama had won by "running a sexist campaign" and was now continuing that practice by "muzzling the first female Vice President of the United States of America."
Even if Obama laid down the law, telling Hillary she had to toe the administration line henceforth, what do you think would really happen? Imagine Hillary R. Clinton spending the next four years as an obedient junior partner, while Obama harvests all the attention.
Try to imagine that. Oh hell, go ahead, just try. I dare you.
