She is not stepping down because then she still has a secure job when the “election” of Joe&How is invalidated. Obama resigned his Seante seat the week after the 2008 Election...

Doesn’t matter. She’s vacating her seat regardless. All expenses paid trip to Gitmo guaranteed.

It means on assuming VP office she won't be a Senator anymore. VP isn't an appointed office.

Hopefully it never comes to that.

She'll resign Jan 19 if the worst happens.

Sometimes they resign earlier, like in a state where the legislature or governor appoints a successor and it'll change hands once the new ones are sworn in.

No. She can't be appointed to a civil office. That's not the same as being elected to a different office. However, her birthright citizenship is actually in question. She very well may not be eligible for President or VP. But neither was Hussein.
