When Rush is in the zone, he's IN THE ZONE!
Not 100 %, but close, Fast Eddie from PA is an ex-governor, IIRC.
Clinton knows Romney will probably win, and kissing his a** will keep him in the press, like when he teamed up with both Bush’s for charitable causes. It’s all about Bill Clinton, no one else.
"Well, I think Obama is gonna win by five or six points, but people are still getting up and they're looking in the mirror and they're starting the day thinking of failing." That's not an endorsement of Obama. What I think is happening, is this economic disaster is real. It's not an academic exercise that's happening over there somewhere that doesn't affect anybody. It's not a bunch of people theorizing in the faculty lounge. This is REAL. There is genuine economic destruction taking place that is directly tied to the policies of Barack Obama.Now, what party does he belong to? The Democrat Party.
We still live in the real world, and I'm telling you: The Democrat Party has people in it that are scared to death over how in the world they are gonna recover from this. The heck with Obama... Nothing in the last 3-1/2 years that's happened is how you build a party, folks. There's no party-building going on, and the polling data -- and these people live and die by it. The numbers of people that self-identify as conservatives and Republicans is overwhelmingly atop Democrats who self-identify as Democrats. I think when you've got all these Democrats, elected and otherwise, coming out to defend private equity -- and, in a sense, defend Romney here -- it is because the Democrat Party is being taken down the tubes along with Obama...But I'm gonna tell you, if Barack Obama causes a worldwide depression, the Democrat Party is not gonna survive it. And the Bill Clintons will be forgotten, footnotes in history."
If Romney can convince the ‘soon to retire’ Boomers, the small investors, Federal & union pensioners and the current retirees that he has a plan to protect their future benefits; he will demolish Obama.
Everyone has ‘self interest’ even the Democrat public teat elected officials and employees - they want the gravy train to keep on keepin’ on. Obama’s policies are poison to both the private sector and the ‘tax paid perk’ people.
Interesting and insightful comment.
Oh, there is a third way, and I've been predicting it since 2009.
Hillary needs several things in order to make it work: 1) She needs to get 95% of the black vote; 2) She needs to refocus voter anger on the VRWC; and 3) She needs Team Obama (or what's left of it) to appear with her in photo ops. I mean, she needs a smiling Valerie Jarrett and Michelle herself on board.
If Obama is "coaxed" into not running, none of this will be possible.
The only road to the White House for the Clintons runs right through Fort Marcy Park.
Thank you!
Bill Clinton is going to be on CNBC tommorrow. CNBC has a political officer show up time to time to ensure the party line is being espoused.
