Clinton yesterday completely denied the reports that her campaign was having talks with Obama aids for seeking vice presidential post for her. She called the reports "flatly untrue”.
In an interview Friday with the Sioux Falls Argus Leader, Clinton said, "It is flatly untrue and it is not anything I'm entertaining. It is nothing I have planned and it is nothing I am prepared to engage in. I am still vigorously campaigning."
Recently, there were reports around that Clinton aids were discussing ways to end her campaign by being offered the vice presidential slot underneath Obama, but Clinton utterly rejected that and said she suspected the reports were coming from Obama aides. She said, “I would look to the camp of my opponent for the source of these stories. They have been trying to push me out of this ever since Iowa."
Meanwhile, Obama campaign also dismissed the reports that there were talks going on between the two campaigns about putting Clinton on the ticket.
