The Obama Girlfriend Story: It's Real

I put that link up as mostly just a bit of baiting of Andrew Sullivan.

Having now spoken to someone tracking the story, I can say:

1) It's not just a silly little rumor.

2) It will break in some form shortly. The question is how prestigious an outlet breaks it. (PS, at best, it won't be that prestigious, at least at first, but there's a lot here so when someone finally touches, there is a good chance of an Edwards-like "Oh yeah, we were working on that too" pile-on.) Fire is being held as those who know the story try to get someone of import to break it; if they pass, it will be flooded out through secondary channels.

3) The story has a Fred Baron. Not The Fred Baron. But actually-- an even better Fred Baron. The woman is "working" in the Caribbean drawing a salary from.... uhhh... let's say from someone who is a big, shiny part of the dirty Chicago political machine. And it makes no sense that she's doing her supposed "job," for which she seems unqualified anyway, in the Caribbean, of all places. It's unclear how she could possibly do this job at all, never mind from the Caribbean.

4) This woman was a major, big-time fundraiser. She raised x millions of dollars for various Democratic interests (connected to Obama) and then opened her own shop in DC. Since she was (as any fundraiser does) getting a cut of the take, this was a lucrative job. But she, for reasons unfathomable, suddenly shut the shop down and decamped to a little Caribbean island. And somewhere along the line got a "job" from her own Fred Baron. Which conveniently put her far away from Obama, Michelle, and the media.

5) Within hours of the Daily Mail article breaking, she called the Illinois hq of the Obama campaign. They wouldn't talk to her.

Incidentally, didn't Obama vacation in the Caribbean after he won the primaries...? Oh that's right, he did. I raised this with my source who, alas, hadn't even made that connection.

No, he means the person playing the role Fred Baron played in the Edwards affair.

They like him

I highly doubt The One would want his mistress punished with a baby.

The Obama Girlfriend Story: It's Real

Let's pretend that he story is completely real and proven. Would it matter to the democratic leadership and to liberal voters?

Remember that Obama is in the same political party as that other sex-hungry leader of the democrats who couldn't do any wrong, Bill Clinton.

To democrats, as long as their leader or candidate holds the same political positions as them, then anything goes. Obama and Clinton may be scoundrels, and we may tag them as "democrat" scoundrels, but what matters to liberals is that, that scoundrel is a "democrat". To a democrat, "he's one of our own".



Besides, just like with Clinton, the democrats will think of Obama as an "alpha" male, and alpha males have their needs, and their needs should be satisfied as long as the scoundrel is doing the work of the democrats. Dishonesty and lying and unfaithfulness can be forgiven for the "greater good".

And, most importantly, like the democrats like to say and like they said with Clinton, it's only sex.

Appreciate that update, PhiKapMom. Wasn’t aware of any of that.

So he means “a” Fred Baron type...
As many times as I read that LOL! I am up too late at night.

[dforest]

Jeremiah Wright seemed to be bothered that Bill Clinton was riden’ dirty.

[PajamaTruthMafia]

No sweat. I know the feeling - LOL!

I’ve said before and will say again-Bambis old lady looks like she knows her way around a straight razor!

hmmm... some juicy gossip?

Unfortunately that elevates him to many of the RATS.. just like his anti war /terrorist friends & other scummy activities.

grrrr

No one cares about what happens in Africa.

It isn’t about Obama’s supporters. It’s about the undecideds. I would have thought everybody understood that by now.

[wagglebee]

It isn’t about Obama’s supporters. It’s about the undecideds. I would have thought everybody understood that by now.

Exactly, this election has ALWAYS been about the undecideds/independents.

[Churchillspirit]

Well if the undecideds have not yet realized what Obama is through his connections to Wright; Ayers; Acorn and Odinga, I doubt this little tidbit will turn them against him.

I suppose we can but hope.

There is a female DC freeper who can attest to his “popularity” around town in the past.

My head hurts!!!

“There's another big twist too, which I can't say anything about. I wouldn't even hint about it, really, even if permitted to, because it's so delicious it makes it nearly fantastical — in the sense of “No one gets this lucky!” — and actually would be used to denigrate the rest of it. But there is a chance it gets more interesting than even the Chicago Machine connection.”

Could this be the real reason Jesse was talking about cutting his manhood off?

FWIW - I especially liked that little cutting motion Jackson added to the comment.

[mplsconservative]

Geez Yaelle, I just can’t see that, but I believe you. McCain was quite the handsome man back in the day. And yes, I know his history with Cindy and his first marriage.

I learn something new everyday.

The thing that really confounds me is this story that Obama has a girlfriend. Triple barf alert! :)

Who is Vera Baker — and why is she in Martinique?
Posted by hillbuzz under Uncategorized

Who is Vera Baker?

Some people in Chicago claim she was Obama’s Finance Director for his 2004 Senate campaign. FEC Senate campaign records show she was paid a pretty penny as “Finance Director”.

However, people familiar with Obama’s 2004 Senate campaign say Claire Serdiuk was Obama’s Finance Director. Looking through everything we can see online for that 2004 campaign, Claire Serdiuk is consistently listed as the Finance Director - because that’s what she was.

There’s no mention of Vera Baker…but Vera Baker was paid as the “Finance Director” too.

And then, suddenly, Vera Baker was relocated to New York.

Right around the time Michelle Obama got incredibly angry about something. We know it was hard to tell, because Michelle’s angry about something on a good day…but this was EXTRA angry.

And then, even more suddenly, Vera Baker was relocated to the island of Martinique, where she remains.

We hear it’s lovely there. They get lots of sunshine on Sundays. Paradise. A lovely place to read between the lines and ask lots of questions. All reporters should go there and feel inspired.

Does anyone else get the impression the media doesn’t want to report on people like Vera Baker until after the election — and that both the Clinton and McCain campaigns have been unable to force them to do otherwise? Do you ever get the feeling reporters sit around, perhaps on top of piles of stories they choose not to report, asking each other, “You don’t really want McCain to win, do you?”.

Of course they don’t.

The piles make better chairs than stories. “We’re all so comfy!”

That’s why you’ve never heard of Vera Baker…and most likely won’t in the next three weeks.

I just did a google search and found that Obama vacationed in St. Thomas (with family) over Easter and in Hawaii in August.

Nothing seems to be too mysterious in either case.
