I bet Hillary isnt too happy with this one.

My interpretation is that Hillary is not on the ticket by her own choice. She doesn't think Bush is vulnerable enough to lose. She will only run as a Veep if it is a sure thing in order to protect her political capital for her own eventual presidential campaign.
