Interesting article but unfortunately the source is link-only, per FR excerpt policy.
It was never even a remote first call for me.
Phony O’Baloney.
Dumbo.
Hussein.
No thank you.
I think pretty much that Obama is done for. On the other hand, many were writing off John Kerry before Iowa and New Hampshire too. A Hillary scream could be just the ticket for Obama. ;-)
We can only hope that this empty suit has seen his last!
I guess this Hillary clone doesn’t like the truth being spoken by O’Bama’s wife.
Obama will return in either four or eight years. The great American attention span will have fogotten his unfocused, yet oddly expensive, first run for the presidency. His inanities will be ancient history and he will be the next heir apparent.
Which teaches us there's a huge difference between the press-preferred candidate and the voter-preferred.
Dean was a media darling, and now Obama is, but behind that curtain, actual voters are usually sober.
They will not vote for Barack, Hussein or Obama. Not now and not in 4 or 8 years.
What?
Some will vote for Obama... probably about the same or fewer numbers than those who voted for Bill Bradley. Hopefully they will be disgruntled enough to then turn around and then vote for Nader or Cindy Sheehan or whomever. Hey I can dream can’t I?
Make no mistake about it , Obama is the Clinton stalking horse. She needs him and if he falters, her campaign will prop him up.
His VP spot depends on how much credibility he allows her to destroy.
Message to Barry: Do Not Cross the Line!
The country knows it, Hillary knows it, and Obama’s wife knows it.
It’s fun to watch all the desperate gaffes he’s making - just like Kerry did as his campaign went on...
Who cares. He’s just a media creation anyway. The MSM is infatuated with him because he is articulate and doesn’t speak in ebonics. Obama has no basis to be President of the United States.
Still time for Mrs. Obama to cut Mrs. Clinton a few times more.
“Can’t run their own home, how ya gonna run the peoples home?”
Hillary does not intend to make him her VP. She’ll pick Richardson. She’s cut a deal with Obama: “Look - you’re only 45 years old. In eight years, you’ll be the perfect age, and you’ll have more Senate experience under your belt. You’ll no doubt have chairmanship experience too. As a wildly successful and popular two-term president, I’ll endorse you wholeheartedly and will campaign for you, along with throwing big bucks to your campaign”
I think of him as a Stepford candidate. A cipher.
Your right, her little (oops) whisper with him gave away the play book. I guess O’Bama’s mama was sent out to throw off the scent. Doesn’t take much with the nasally challenged media types.
Senate experience seldom helps a presidential candidate. Hillary will pick a VP from a purple big state like Ohio or Florida.
My point was that she won’t pick Obama for VP, but will pledge to support him after she serves two terms as prez. For her own VP, she’ll pick Richardson. He brings geographical balance and the Hispanic vote. Not to mention, he was a loyal foot soldier in BillyBobJeff’s administration.
Obama was simply working out his ambition and the media loved it, so they helped him. Hillary had to suspect Barak wouldn't hold up well in a white-hot national media spotlight and that his glaring inexperience would cause him to stumble, which is exactly what has happened. How convenient.
However, Obama's candidacy gives Hillary the ability to pretend that she 'fought for' the Democrat presidential nomination that was always hers. Some will be fooled. Many will not. Obama never really had a chance - and I don't mind at all. At least Hillary is a Marxist we know.
