Bruce Dixon on Clinton and Obama's manufactured "tension"

Bruce Dixon comments over at Skeptical Brotha on Rush's Obama endorsement.

The manufactured “tension” between the Obama and Clinton camps is a joke, IMHO, something put out there for the rubes to believe. Folks close to Obama have been talking about and aiming at a run for VICE president ever since 1993. That’s VICE. But the way you run for VP is to run for prez. Obama and Hillary have already cut their deal. Obama is running so as to be valuable to Hillary as an eventual running mate. Just my guess. If I was as flush as I am confident, I would be talking bets.

My gut tells me Dixon's right.
