Excerpt:
Intrade's participants hedged their bets saying there's an excellent chance the veep picks will be "none of the above."

They say there's a 40.8 percent possibility none of the 14 prominent Republicans drawing attention will get the nod. For Democrats, the figure is 28.5 percent.

*********************

I have not really tallued it, but from my recollection VP is usually *not* drawn from formaer candidates (since they are proven loooosers ?). Obama might have bigger pressures to take on Hil as at least she has not been knocked out early and can "split the party". Anything more solid from history classes ?
