“The beginning of a new year is a time for resolutions, and Hillary Clinton’s admirers are already busily, lovingly resolving on her behalf. On one sideline, her friends tell me that after a few years of hyperactive globetrotting what she really needs is to put her feet up and dictate another volume of her memoirs while nagging Chelsea to deliver grandchildren.”
NYT self-demoted executive editor now writer Bill Keller, in the Times’ editorial page bully pulpit, kicks off a lonnng column begging Obama to jettison Joe for Hillary as vee pee: “One: it does more to guarantee Obama’s re-election than anything else the Democrats can do. Two: it improves the chances that, come next January, he will not be a lame duck with a gridlocked Congress but a rejuvenated president with a mandate and a Congress that may be a little less forbidding. Three: it makes Hillary the party’s heir apparent in 2016. If she sits out politics for the next four years, other Democrats (yes, Governor Cuomo, we see your hand up) will fill the void.”
Yeas and nays: Bill Keller “Just the Ticket” NYT

But then again, a week earlier, the Weekly World News claimed Hillary is running against Obama.
The Weekly World News apparently uses the same sources as the New York Times:
