I think what Hillary did today - openly campaigning for the VP job and then refusing to make a concession speech - pretty much guarantees she's not going to get the job. If he picked her now he'd look like a total wimp who caved in to pressure, and that's definitely NOT the image he needs to project running against a former POW who endured years of enemy torture...
She gave it a good run, but really, just drop it. There is no way she can win it at this point. Anything else just causes a further divide. And as a VP? No, please.
As for feeling that age difference, I don't know. Maybe it's not as much an age difference as a lifestyle change for you? Tangus just hasn't gotten the party-bug out yet. I know it's frustrating to you, but hang in there. We don't think you're lame for this. And certainly Tangus doesn't.
