Josh Earnest Talks Like Obama Hearts Biden Over Hillary
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 08/03/2015 10:16:30 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

On today's Morning Joe, Josh Earnest said that President Obama believes that picking Biden as his VP was the "smartest decision he ever made in politics." Joe Scarborough drew the mischievous-but-logical inference that Obama must thus believe it was smarter than picking Hillary as his Secretary of State. Though Mika interrupted to say that's not what he meant, Earnest never said boo to counter Joe's interpretation.

Earnest later said that if Biden chooses to run, he could make a "strong" case for his candidacy. He added that other Dem candidates could make "quite" a strong case. Note the qualifier. And Earnest never paid Hillary the honor of mentioning her by name, just lumping her with "other Democratic candidates" not named Biden. Add in the fact that Joe reported that there is "outrage at the White House" over Hillary's email and foundation foul-ups, and a picture emerges over an Obama jumping towards Joe. This could get very interesting!

Sounds like Obama leans Biden over Hillary.

Break out the popcorn ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

Sure he does. Oblather and the Clintoons don’t really like each other. They have been forced to use each other for political gain.

This could be a very positive development.

With no credible opposition for Hillary, the Dems are free to Op Chaos Bush to the R nomination.

It would be the same as it is now. Zero and his mentors would be pulling the strings and good ol’ Joe would be Howdy Doody.

Smartest decision? More like life & impeachment insurance, with the realization that Crazy Joe is first in line for succession...

Hillary is being kneecapped, but there won’t be any fingerprints.

“Hillary is being kneecapped, but there won’t be any fingerprints.”

HRC kneecapped herself. Had she not been protected by the left and the media, she would have been out of politics years ago. All that’s happening now is that a small amount of that protection is being withdrawn.

Yeah, that is shocking!

Given that the Clintons and the 0bamas hate each other with a passion.

But then he likely hates Biden, Sanders and Warren too. Bunch of dang old white crackers as they are.

Barry is hoping that Corey Booker of some other ‘brother’ will show some interest in running. Or maybe Keith Ellison, to cover BOTH kinds of his “Brothers’

Makes you wonder how much she's going to have to pay for a pardon.

Oh please Santa, bring me a long drawn out contested democrat primary battle in which HRC is forced to show herself to the masses.

And one last thing Santa...please let her survive the primary process, although just barely, because we all know she is incredibly unattractive and immanently beatable. Bill used to do it alot!

Obama told HIllary not to hire Sidney Blumentahl but she did it behind his back anyway. You know Obama hasn’t forgotten this.

This is going to get interesting.

The MSM loves Obama. They may tolerate Hillary and cover for her but I don’t think the media drones love her or even like her.

If Obama supports Biden over Hillary, I wonder if we finally see press coverage of the various Hillary scandals. Plus plenty of criticism of Hillary for not answering questions from the press.

Biden, on the other hand, will have his many gaffes ignored and we will be told that Biden is the “most experience man to ever run for President”.

Another question in my mind is will the Clintons retaliate against Obama if he tries to deny Hillary the Presidency by supporting Biden. And would Obama fight back? I sure the Clintons and Obama have plenty of dirt on each other.

Yep, this could get very interesting.
