Hillary for Vice President? Bloomberg campaign refuses to shoot down ‘speculation’ about Clinton as running mate

Mod: Impeached "president" and future prison inmate Donald Trump would not be happy about that ticket.

Hillary for vice president? Bloomberg campaign refuses to shoot down ‘speculation’ about Clinton as running mate (New York Daily Newslink): Mike and Hillary 2020? Never say never. Mike Bloomberg’s presidential campaign pointedly refused to deny reports Saturday that he is considering Hillary Clinton as a possible running mate.

“We’re focused on the campaign and the debate, not vice presidential speculation,” said Jason Schechter, chief communications officer for Bloomberg’s campaign.

An unnamed Bloomberg campaign source told the Drudge Report that the billionaire ex-mayor is thinking about the failed 2016 presidential candidate as the No. 2 person on a Democratic ticket led by him to take on President Trump.

The attention-grabbing trial balloon comes as Bloomberg rises fast in Democratic primary polls on the back of an estimated $300 million splurge on television ads across the nation. The report claims that Bloomberg is considering changing his official residence to either Florida or Colorado, where he has homes, to avoid Electoral College rules that make it difficult for a president and his running mate to live in the same state.

Clinton would bring unrivaled establishment Democratic credibility, solid support from black voters and strong feminist credentials to what is shaping up as an epic struggle to oust Trump from the White House.
