If Hillary had gotten the nomination—especially after a hotly-contested race—it would have been hard for her not to pick Obama as her running mate

Yes.  Given Obama's enormous popularity with African Americans--a group that constitutes the backbone of the Democratic voting bloc--Clinton would basically have had to choose Obama for VP.  I remember thinking this while the 2008 primary was going on.
