“He’s going to dump Biden and get Hillary to run with him”

Yep, if they pull off the 2012 election, she is a shoe in for he 2016 bid.

I think you’re right. As anyone who follows sports knows, the most popular player on a struggling football team is always the second string quarterback. That is, until that second stringer actually gets in the game. That’s why all the love for Hillary now in that poll. She’s not in the game, so it’s meaningless.

Right now, Hillary is the Dem’s second string QB and we all know the first teamer is struggling.

“Never misunderestimate the Beltway GOP’s ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory - by nominating Myth RomneyCare”

Nor underestimate the Independant voters not wanting Bush the 3rd.

Term limits is one thing we need badly, and will never get.

That's for sure. TX considered the initiative and referendum years ago, but a funny thing happened. Two Republican governors killed it: Clements and GWB, who had it taken out of the state party platform. And Perry has never mentioned brining the initiative back. It was pushed in the 1980s by former State Senator Walter Mengden of Houston, whom the liberals called "Mad Dog" Mengden.

Do I remember the Whigs??? Only in the sense that I remember that period of history...1829-1854. So, no, no first hand experience.

However, I am old enough to remember when the great majority of Democrats were patriots. A long time ago.

Hillary and Obama come from the same Soros Alinsky progressive machine. Bill is a big globalist, she loves universal healthcare and UN international law, Holder is from the Clinton administration.

we would be up against the same destructive agenda. Obama would be easier to beat. If she ends up running it would be because (IMO) it was the inside backup plan all along.

Obama: Quitter, Looser, Failure, Fraud.

In the end, the only bailout he will successfully manage...will be his own.

Bye Bye Obama don't let the door hit you in your skinny little wimpy a**.

Why Obama should withdraw

This is the headline of an article in The Chicago Tribune, no less. 0b0z0's town is calling for his withdrawal!

Communists are making noise without saying the obvious:

1- If 0b0z0 runs, violence and intimidation by flash mobs and union thugs will be rampant next summer.

2- If he runs and loses in a landslide, violence will CONTINUE because of "racism and fraudulent elections (yeah, right) against a black man."

3- If he announces he won't be running because "America IS NOT ready for a black president," violence will breakout to defend the poor "black" victim. Note that I used the present tense because 0kaka will never acknowledge that he would never have been electED without whitey vote!

I'll stay with #3, judging by his cowardice, his yearning to destroy the country through violence or anyway he can, his narcissism and his inability to take the ultimate rejection like a "man" who is in fact nothing but a h0m0sexual child.

I don’t know about the Chicago Trib. Is it a typical leftie rag or what?

The Chicago trib is an historically staunch republican pub. It began a sweeping left turn in the late seventies, after the death of Colonel McCormick. It nows supports all things RINO-Moderate.

Steve Chapman, long time member of the editorial board, usually writes from a libertarian perspective.

“If he will withdraw, I will help pay his moving expenses back to Europe or wherever he came from.”

Very interesting comment.

It will be revealing to see where Obama relocates to when he leaves D.C.

Odds are, it may not even be in the United States.

We shall see.

I don’t think Hillary has the physical ability anymore to do it.

I agree, I think she's telling the truth when she says she wants to retire.

The first President Bush had something like an 93% approval rating after DESERT STORM. The old media, and a camouflaged third party Democrat candidate named Ron Paul, er, I mean Ross Perot, denied him a second term. The Democrats will try to run this same strategy, but with a twist. It will be used to put Hillary in.

“But if this helps Obama lose his support, I’m all for it...”

You said it!

But who would take his place on the ticket?

Thank you for your reply.

The drum beat has started - first Bloomberg and Drudge - now The Chicago Tribune. Watch for more. Hillary/Bill will not accept 2nd place to a failing Obozo. Watch for “Draft Hillary, she will save us” from the Dems’

I’ll go with none of the above.

He will be challenged in every state he attempts to place his name on the ballot next year, and the issue of identity fraud and constitutional eligibility will be mainstream.

We may even see indictments being issued in 2012 for Obama and Holder...

The dems better out this imposter pronto overwise Obama is going to do a sc0rched earth treatment on the mule party.
