Im thinking that, too. There is NO ONE on the dem side that can do anything. Michelle n bernie might have been their best play, but the higher ups in the dem heirarchy wouldnt share power. On top of that, seeing the debates play out would have been interesting, bringing all the dirty laundry of the obamas out, and bernies stupid envy and hypocrisy on display as well.
A solid theory. Would allow them to say "see? We tried your law-abiding way. We even had a COP VP! Didn't work. Time for coup!"
My personal favorite theory is the H.A. Goodman theory - HRC will be swapped in. This is a fake ticket to waste opponent resources on attack ads etc, and to make HRC look palatable in comparison.
I don't think they'll swap a very unlikeahle white woman for a black woman. Plus apparently behind the scenes at the DNC Hillary has been rattling her saber too much for some people's liking.
Yes. They’re taking one for the team.
Don’t want to ruin the future political careers of anyone else.

They're saving Michelle for when Trump's term is over. They don't want the stench of a lost bid on her.
