Rumors abound that Hillary Clinton might replace Joe Biden as the VP
October 8th, 2010 - 8:29 pm ICT by Aishwarya BhattReal or not, there are rumors out there that there can be a position switch between United State’s Vice President, Joe Biden and Secretary of State, Hilary Clinton.
There are also reports by Bob Woodward, that the current United States Vice President really wants to become the Secretary of State and the Secretary of State also relishes the chance to become the second most powerful person in the United States.
However the White House’s response has been swift. The White House has denied the rumor with White House Senior Adviser, David Axelrod telling Fox News that “There is absolutely nothing to it” referring to the rumor.
Woodward fueled the rumors during the promotion of his book. He told CNN’s John King that the swap is on the table and Hilary Clinton’s advisors think the swap is possible in 2012.
However the White House Spokesman told CNN that the possibility was not being discussed anywhere in the White House by anyone.
Hilary Clinton has also completely denied the rumor saying Joe Biden is a great friend of her’s. She said that, “I have absolutely no interest and no reason” to have Joe Biden’s position.
