Hillary Clinton To Be Offered Dignified Exit [Made Head of Healthcare]

The former First Lady would get the chance to pilot Mr Obama's reforms of the American healthcare system if she agrees to clear the path to his nomination as Democratic presidential candidate.

...

Dee Dee Myers, the former press secretary to President Clinton, said: "It seems clear to me from watching her, and talking to people, that she doesn't really know what she wants." But after 17 months of campaigning, and $150 million (£76 million) spent, the question that haunts the Clinton camp is: how did someone who a year ago had unrivalled name recognition, a legendary campaign organisation and more money than her opponent contrive to throw it all away?

[BunnySlippers]

Also Biden and Edwards to join Obama cabinet.

[BenLurkin]

This would indeedmark the beginning of the end for liberty — not just in the USA but across the globe.

[Always Right]

Operation Choas will be a complete success if Obama loses in the fall and if Clinton destroys any future chance by being blamed for the lose.

[USMA '71]

I am already hearing strains of “Send in the Clowns”.

[Marie2]

Once health care is universal, my health habits become everyone’s business.

Nanny state to the nth degree.

Quick, someone remind me. Didn't she have this same position in her husband's first term? How did that work out?

[vbmoneyspender]

Come on — she ain’t that stupid. This would be like putting her in charge of the Blue Dress Dry Cleaning Department.

[Waco]

In the future it will be claimed,(admited) that hilary was our first female prez. and served 2 terms. Bet on it!!

[Sacajaweau]

Doesn't even sound like a possibility...Only a brutal reminder of another "BIG L" on her forehead.

I'm hoping she feigns illness and leaves the Senate....never to be heard from again.

[ArchAngel1983]

Who cares how gracefully ‘her majesty’ exits or how awkwardly she maintains her impossible position. The fact is we have The Three Stooges on display here. Each poised to strike at the heart of traditional America. No matter who wins in November, we all lose. Right now it’s just a matter of degree…

[Grammar Nazi]

So Obama will offer her the exact same position she botched so horribly during her husband’s first term. What on Earth is he thinking? And why on Earth would she accept? Has it possibly escaped Obama that she’s a bit of an egomaniac?

[steve7]

If she was put in charge of National Health Care, just think what she could do with personal medical information. Remember how she acquired 900 + FBI files “by accident”?

[BenLurkin]

I remember that.

And how at least one problem person died in prison because his medications were withheld.

[BunnySlippers]

She’d give Nurse Ratchet a run for her money ...

[Mr Ramsbotham]

Once health care is universal, my health habits become everyone’s business.

Don't worry, the "real" conservative we elect in 2016 will restore things to the status quo ante.

[353FMG]

“..how did someone who a year ago had unrivalled name recognition, a legendary campaign organisation and more money than her opponent contrive to throw it all away?”

Is it perhaps because she is the smartest woman in the world?

[big'ol_freeper]

I’m not sure that Hilry could participate in someone else’s administration.

She is going to be so bitter and rejected that she will have to blame someone. She will blame our male dominated society for “putting her down”.

Already rejected by her peers in the Senate, look for Hilry to become even more of a bitter man-hating biotch when she loses.

Schadenfreude.

[A_Former_Democrat]

LOL . . “Head of Healthcare”?

Wow, NObomba, ever heard of The Smartest Woman in the World’s first attempt at that?

What absolute losers these idiots are.

[TribalPrincess2U]

Had to laugh when I read this

Hillary Clinton has privately complained about MoveOn before, at a small fundraiser held after the Super Tuesday primaries. “They flood into these caucuses and dominate them and really intimidate people who actually show up to support me,” she said, according to an audio recording obtained by Huffington Post. In the recording, she also refers to the MoveOn’s fundraising prowess, telling donors that “MoveOn.org endorsed [Obama], which is like a gusher of money that never seems to slow down.”

How does it feel, witch?

[Leisler]

You ought not to be smoking, drinking, taking drugs, caffeine, fat or be non Aryan looking anyways. What's not conservative about that? Mitt's for it. He's Mr. Conservative.

[RichInOC]

Oh, it’s at least fifteen years too late for that, isn’t it?

[familyop]

If Obama became our president (very doubtful outcome), one of the worst mistakes that he could make would be to put Hillary or one of her associates in DHHS.

[word_warrior_bob]

Only in America, she tries to socialize healthcare while holding no elected office, her back room plan proposed a communist type system which was summarily dismissed by both the left and right alike and largely led to the Republicans winning the house and senate for the first time in a LONG time.

This is what makes you an expert on healthcare??? Being a total failure??

[Jagman]

I’ve got it, let’s make her chief executive of the National Institute of rail riders, chicken feather plukers and tar applique wearers!

[darkangel82]

Is Hillary trying to make Obama lose, or what?

[yldstrk]

Tell em to stuff it Hillary.

[no dems]

C’mon folks. Somebody start a movement to get Billary to run on a Third Party ticket or as an Independent. C’mon, she deserves it.

[yldstrk]

yeah yeah vote for mcCain and quit carping

[ArchAngel1983]

Okay, I’ll do it, but I wont like it...

[angcat]

With McCain we lose a little less. It will be a quick 4 years.

[ArchAngel1983]

Even Bill couldn’t destroy us in eight miserable years... Thanks for the optimism.

[1066AD]

Mr Obama was openly considering asking Mrs Clinton to join his cabinet, alongside two other former presidential rivals: John Edwards, who is seen as a likely attorney general; and Joe Biden, who is a leading contender to become Secretary of State.

It just gets worse....

[Texas Songwriter]

Would McCain ever consider Hillary for running mate. It would assure him the presidency? That is all he really is concerned with. She could claim the high ground saying the democrat party left her, by refusing to listen to thae people. The mushy middle would give it to them.

[COBOL2Java]

Hillary Clinton To Be Offered Dignified Exit

Well, looks like she's ready!

[afraidfortherepublic]

how did someone who a year ago had unrivalled name recognition, a legendary campaign organisation and more money than her opponent contrive to throw it all away?

That's because we REALLY don't like her.

[BenLurkin]

I think McCain would be smarter than to let herget too close.

[lowbridge]

If Obama wins, just dont get sick during his administration.

[Texas Songwriter]

They are very close friends, according to McCain.

[Wally_Kalbacken]

What? What is Ted Kennedy? Chopped liver?

[IM2MAD]

I still have a copy of her healthcare plan...all 1364 pages.

[RichInOC]

No. Whiskey-flavored lard.

[Mike Bates]

[fightinJAG]

Healthcare? Is this The Onion?

[fightinJAG]

BWWWAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

[fightinJAG]

Why doesn’t Bob Barr name her as his running mate?

[Lancey Howard]

Hillary Clinton To Be Offered Dignified Exit [Made Head of Healthcare]

LMAO!!! Sure, that will appease her!

[Lancey Howard]

Operation Choas will be a complete success if Obama loses in the fall and if Clinton destroys any future chance by being blamed for the lose.

Ideally, Hillary will find a way to steal the nomination and drive the rats' most loyal base constituency (blacks) away from the party in droves, for a decade or longer. Wow! Go, Hillary, GO!

[Enchante]

Donald Trump should offer Shrillary a position as head of hospitality for his hotels - she could be the Leona Helmsley of the 21st century.

[angcat]

I have to differ. He let Bin Lauden plan and plot and we had lots of terror.
