Back in 2008 Obama decided that Biden was going to be his VP running mate.

If Hillary Clinton is the best choice to be President, WHY wasn’t she picked by Obama as his VP running mate over Joe Biden?

The answer is, she is, was, and always will be too corrupt and too power hungry! She just couldn’t be trusted by the Obama administration in the #2 position of power in the US government.

That same logic is even more evident today!

“I don’t believe for a minute that HRC is less than 100% committed to being elected President. She is dying to be President...”

Above all, the Clintons are criminals. The basic operating computation of all criminals is: Something For Nothing.

Knowing this, it follows that Hillary never had any intention of following through with her end of the bargain. She and Bill have already been paid, which in their criminal minds, is the end of the process. All that remains is the getaway, which Hillary is acomplishing with her fake run for the White House.

The ONLY compelling reason for Hillary to actually strive to win, is to stay out of prison. At this point, she may be really doing that, as other evidence points to Obama not lifting a finger to save her. Should she decide to acquiesce and allow Biden to take over, there MAY be a pardon in the deal for her.

The Democrats will pull a Torricelli on Sanders. Biden has been getting a lot of press recently. Look for more Biden PR pieces in the next month as more details of Hillary’s racketeering are exposed.

It looks like the path for Biden is being laid out.

“...it’s possible the Dems will try to nudge HRC out, but she will never acquiesce.”

It’s not Hillary’s choice - it’s Obama’s. If he decides that she’s more of a liability than an asset to the party, their agenda, and his legacy, he’ll make sure she’s indicted by his DOJ. That will end her campaign within hours, if not minutes.

He’s already signaling that he’s not there for her, by his failure to do anything to slow or impede the FBI’s investigation.

Now that Trump is poised to overtake her in the national polls, Obama and the DNC may decide it’s time to forcefully retire her from the race and bring in Biden to replace her. It all depends upon whether the Dem leadership thinks the race is winnable at all.

If they’ve concluded that the Republicans own this one, they’ll let Hillary continue to a humiliating defeat. They’ll then tell Loretta Lynch to stand down. There’ll be no indictment, and Hillary will ride off into the sunset with her mega millions.

Palace intrigue can be tough to read from outside the castle walls, but we’re seeing enough to form some decent hypotheses.

My own theories have been gestating in my mind for some time. With each new observation and bit of data collected, those theories get better and better.

I probably haven’t read clean through these people yet, but I think I’m getting close.

Disagree ... I think Hillary! wants to win, desperately, to the very marrow of her bones.

Because she wants to rule, emperor-like, with a titanium fist, crushing anything that even faintly resembles a vast, right-wing conspiracy.

Woof!

“[Obama’s] already signaling that he’s not there for her, by his failure to do anything to slow or impede the FBI’s investigation.”

I agree with you there, and cite this to prove your point: Obama’s assertion that HRC “has said there was ‘carelessness’ in her using a private server,” She had said no such thing, nor would she say such, given that mere carelessness would be enough to indict her when it comes to handling classified info. Obama seemed to be defending HRC when he gave that interview, but he really did her no favors...and I suspect he knew exactly what he was doing.

Either that, or Professor Big Head was trying, as usual, to sound smarter and more well informed than he really is, while putting his foot in it.

Then again, he and his ilk are some of the most devious, evil people ever seen in U.S. politics. He very well may have been trying to sink her with that comment.

Good catch.

Thanks.

In my view, the major players on the left know full well that it would take a miracle for them to hold onto the White House for a third term. They lost close to a thousand races across the country in 2012, due to their dear leader’s gross incompetence and “fundamental transformation”.

If Zero’s approval ratings were at 60% or better, they would have run Joe Biden or some up and coming young star in their party. Unfortunately for them, his approval rating is near or at his absolute floor of support, which spells a sure loss for their nominee in November.

Why waste a decent candidate in such a losing scenario? Better to let the old bag give it her last shot, to prove to her ‘donors’ that she sincerely intends to give them their money’s worth.

Costs the DNC nothing, and they get to rid themselves of the Clintons for good.

“Disagree ... I think Hillary! wants to win, desperately, to the very marrow of her bones. Because she wants to rule, emperor-like, with a titanium fist, crushing anything that even faintly resembles a vast, right-wing conspiracy.”

I’m just not seeing it. Hillary has run one of the weakest, most lackluster, most uninspiring campaigns for president, that we’ve seen in quite some time.

She’s old. She’s sick. She’s tired. She’s also got the dogs of hell nipping at her heels with the FBI investigation. The only things driving her forward, at this point, are the pressure of her implied promises to her foundation donors, and the threat of prison time.

On top of all that, Donald Trump is about to overtake her in the national polls, and Obama’s signaling that his hands are tied, and he can’t save her.

How would you like to wake up every morning with all that hanging over your head? Do you really think you’d be filled with confidence, and feeling like the inevitable Queen of Planet Earth?

Hell, she probably needs strong drugs just to sleep at night, and wakes up from nightmares frequently.

Best analysis I've read about the democRAT side and it's entirely plausible.

Good job.

One of the things that is making this a fun election , if nothing else, is that it's not some wimpy mumbly mouth go along to get along Rino. It's a fire breathing fighter who loves to land punches and Hillary is a crooked monster who provides plenty of corruption for Trump to highlight.
Exactly!

2008: We have nothing to fear with Barack Obama in the White House

2012: Candy Crowley Injects Herself Into the Presidential Debate. Romney Backs Off

2016: The GOP finally learns how to fight back!

Much appreciated, Hunt. It’s taken a while for enough pieces to fall into place to see all that.

I still don’t know if I’ve read the situation to a 100% certainty, but I don’t think I’m far off.

Nice analysis. It is indeed very fun this time thanks to Trump and the way he has confounded the liberal media.
