A Democratic duo dynamic detected by Robert Novak:
Close-in supporters of Sen. Barack Obama's presidential campaign are convinced he never will offer the vice presidential nomination to Sen. Hillary Clinton for one overriding reason: Michelle Obama.Frankly, I don't think Hillary -- who came into the contest like it was a coronation -- would accept the No. 2 spot if it were offered. She has more power as a senior senator than she would if she joined The Warm Bucket Brigade.The Democratic front-runner's wife . . . has been sniping at Clinton since last summer. According to Obama sources, those public utterances do not reveal the extent of her hostility.
