Hillary will be forced to put Obama on the ticket in order not to lose the black vote by default in the general.
But I think Obama is part of a long term strategy and I wouldn’t be surprised at all if his dark team wouldn’t find a right winger to eliminate Hillary at some point in order to elevate Obama to the Presidency.
Ya know, it’s difficult to figure out which of these Marxists would be worse. They will both give our national security information to other Marxists leaders in the world, but I think Obama may also give secrets to Muslim radicals.
If it isn’t the End Times, I don’t know what else we have to do as a culture to insure our total destruction. This election pretty much puts the sappers in place to mine the rest of the foundation loadbearers and to push the ignition button for the primers.
Tinfoil hat on while sitting in a copper cage.:)
The logic of this is totally flawed. The whole country will see the tactics you described as theft of the nomination and nobody will be fooled. If Obama takes the majority of the pledged delegates secured by votes in the state primaries and caucuses and is denied the nomination, YOU WILL SEE A RIOT IN DENVER!
“How many FBI files do you think Hillary and Bill have on them. It was nice to have the goods on Republican party officials, but it was a mandatory that the Clintons have the goods on Democrats.”
I say those superdelegates who are having second thoughts about Hillary will be back in the fold in no time once they realize that HRC has the goods on them via her FBI files. She is one slick operator. Blackmail is a *itch.
Hillary will be forced to put Obama on the ticket in order not to lose the black vote by default in the general.
100 percent agress. Obama will be forced into the Vice Presidency. Some back room agreement will be made. If this happens, I feel that the Republicans are dead in the water this election.
Well, consulting the good old history books we know a few things:
1.Accurate accounting of sources of cash and cash flow has never been a Clinton priority.
2.The Clintons, once they have their hands on cash, never, never, ever let it go. Their expenses are for the little people to pay.
Given the above, what is your educated guess?
This is a very good thing, although not enough to save the dying political parties.
Primary elections with low/no bar to voter participation are the last nail in the coffin of the 19th century "political party". The voters, maybe a majority of them, have no interest in, or conception of, the well-being of the party. It is FAR more likely that elected officials or other big shots do.
Take the New Hampshire Democratic party for example (please).
On January 8, 2008, I was a registered Democrat for 7.5 minutes. I voted for Obama in a (vain) attempt to cripple Hillary.
What kind of sense does it make for me to have the same voice in what they do as the former governor, or an elected congressthing?
None, that's how much.
Voting with no barrier to participation makes sense (barely) in November, because it's a binary contest where A or B is an answer.
But to nominate the candidate of a specific political party, uninvolved or barely involved voters, whether they are "registered" or not, should have nothing to do with it.
Bring back the smoke-filled room.
...yes but your not a public figure, a politician's file can be and is always used to slime and degrade whether or not there's any truth to allegations...the subject has to defend himself. Rats always use it with the help of the MSM....it's called the policy of personal destruction, the clintons are experts at it...(with the MSM playing the key role)
..don't be so sure. When it comes to $$$$ and politicians and the power they seek, they would sell their youngest
...here’s a the list where SD’s are...(you can rest assured waiting with open palms)

“how did the liberators get tagged as the oppressors, i just don’t get it.”
you’ll get it when you investigate dr. goebbles and his antics in the propaganda ministry.
I have seen NO sign of repentance out of McCain's unholy rebellion over the past many years, why now would I find him a CHANGED man.
I think the fixs has been in for a long time.
I always wondered how Hillary would be able to survive a long campaign, especially as the front runner. Everyone would be attacking her.
Well now we have the answer. Obama is running interference for her. As the "leader" he is getting all the press and attacks (as lame as they have been). Hillary is sitting back just coasting to the convention.
At the convention the vote will magically be revealed in Hilliary's favor, Obama will be offered the VP, which he will accept since that was his price all along.
What is curious to me is how they mananged to get the Republican party to nominate McCain and needlessly tear apart the party's base. That to me is the real story for the election of 2008, not that we will ever hear it.
Anyway, Hillary will win the nomination without every having to answer one tough question. And from there she will go on a listening tour making stops at Oprah and 60 Minutes.
And in November when the voters are given a choice of voting between a socialist and a socialist, a socialist will win.
This will be the main stream medias finest hour, they have finally fooled the people and got the results they have always wanted.
I am now removing my TIN FOIL thinking cap.
the super delegate system....
kind of like the supreme soviet.
Yesterday a caller on Rush said that the GOP has its nominee, now we need to vote in the OH and TX Dem primaries for Obama, insuring that no matter what happens in Super-delegates or MI/FL, she's not nominated.
I'd rather have Obama than risk her ultimate victory in November. Please, let's get rid of her NOW!
This scenario is one I laid out a few days ago, but it doesn’t tell “the rest of the story”.
After Hillary steals the nomination, Obama supporters will be livid!
Obama supporters will soon recognize that McCain continues to be brow beaten by conservatives.....so McCain couldn’t be that bad.
Obama supporters cross over and vote for McCain (and his VP Romney)
Mac wins.....No Senator, turned Prez has survived his 1st term.....Hello Prez Romney...
While there are other outcomes, there are two possible outcomes of this situation that are both bad for the Democrats. 1) Hillary effectively steals the nomination from Obama = mass discontent among the base. 2) Hillary fails to steal the nomination = Clintonian scorched-earth policy; the Clintons have no party loyalty and would rather see their party lose than to let a rival win.
And right now he is spending far more money to buy superdelegate votes than she is: $694,000 for Obama versus $195,500 for Clinton.
This article is a good analysis of both races.
