I Smell a Clinton Coup Brewing

After Barockstar’s near fatal empty suit performance at Saddleback Saturday, the Obama spin machine is in damage control overdrive. I wonder if they‘ve had time to realize that they have been triangulated by the Clinton war room and set up to take a fall at the DNC convention?

That old Clinton war room stench is in the air again… It seems the empty suit and his empty headed staff is not quite up to speed on Clintonian strategeries.

Louis Farrakan put out the threat yesterday if Obamassiah loses... they'll be trouble!!

The unorganized militia is about to make a huge comeback in this country if that is the case.

I don’t see how Obama would want Hillary as VP. He knows she’d undermine his presidency...she and Bill.

But to put her on his ticket as VP would cinch the vote, and he may pick her for the sake of having a Democratic presidency.

Having Clinton as VP? Talk about Obama being PW’d... (snicker)

[A CA Guy]

I don't doubt that extreme leftist would take themselves all the time when they spoke in groups because of their egos as 3 people in the audience watch them.

If there are such tapes, two things would happen due to the crud Barry Obama hung with.

#1 The bad guys extracted promises of connections, promotions, influence, money and power if Barry Obama wins or

#2 Hillary or Republicans have some tapes and are waiting for the best time to deliver them.

[servantboy777]

Yeah, literally. Remember a few months back, Obama’s plane having trouble and had to land prematurely.

Just a thought.

Hillary as VeeP is not far off..

Can Obama be that stupid??? ... maybe. ... I can see it now... After EVERY president Obama decision, the media puts the microphone in Bill Clinton's face: "During my administration, we did things a little more thoughtful" ... "Barak's a good man, but a little green. He's growing into a fine president."

Does Obama want Hillary's husband second guessing his every move?

Back in 1960 Lyndon Johnson was the presidential front-runner candidate. At the convention (then) Senator John Kennedy unseated Johnson and became the candidate for president; Johnson was named his VP at the convention.

Does history repeat itself?

[lilylangtree]

My position since Day 1 is to “NOT count the clintoon out.”

[GitmoSailor]

Me toooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!........

[houeto]

The Clintons CAN and WILL jerk the carpet from under Hussein at the convention if his poll numbers drop. And Hillary and company would be a LOT more difficult for McCain to overcome in an election.

Not if she does it in a heavy-handed manner it won't.

[TigersEye]

That would be too good to be true. The Obamites would rebel, Hillary would lose and the DemonRat Party would come apart at the seams.

Kingifsh Stevens is a stockbroker in one episode:

Andy Brown: ''So, Kingfish, how mah stocks doin' t'day?''

Kingfish: ''Well-ll, Andeh, judgin' by this hyar ticker tape, I'd say dat I is da broker and you is da brokEE.''

[cynwoody]

Obama picks Hillary as his VP, and we’re doomed.

Would you want it if you were her? Winning would be losing for her. She's already done eight years as VP!

No, Hillary wants Barry to lose in November. Then it will be wide open for her to have another go in 2012.

Most blacks will not bolt the Dems—that means there gravy train will come to an end

You have a complete misunderstanding of the passion blacks have for Obama --He gets jobbed out of the nomination there will be hell to pay

[hoe_cake]

well, you’ve raised good points. At this point, it is anybody’s guess. We’re gonna wear ourselves out predicting so early.

All I know is the Dem convention is gonna be very, very interesting.

Here is another scenario. Obama picks Hilary as mate, they win. Short time later Clinton and her gang let loose with a barrage of real bad stuff on the Obamaman and get him impeached and he resigns!

[uncbob]

More plausible would be Hillary picking Obama as veep—that might placate the blacks

[alarm rider]

Interesting. Are there any Denver FReepers planning on running a thread? I sure hope so because I would like to know what is REALLY happening.

[Non-Sequitur]

Back in 1960 Lyndon Johnson was the presidential front-runner candidate. At the convention (then) Senator John Kennedy unseated Johnson and became the candidate for president; Johnson was named his VP at the convention.

No he wasn't. Kennedy had won most of the primaries prior to the convention and came in with enough committed delegates to win nomination on the first ballot.

[IbJensen]

Gee, I hope Barry isn’t thrown under the bus by the scheming Clintonistas.
