As much as I would hate to see Hillary in office I would hate to have a closet Muslim in office and could accept battling the Clinton’s for four more years.
The economy will take at least four years to turn around so an Democrat who fails might be better for us in 2012 then having a McCain Presidency.
I can’t wait to see the Denver Surprise and the Denver Riot’s.
Opportunistic, you betcha! Are they keeping the powder dry, waiting for a meltdown. certainly.
Orchestrated all this, I think not.
Somebody needs to let me know because it my turn to bring Rice Crispy Treats to the next meeting and I need to know how many I need to make.
WASHINGTON—Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California has broken her ankle and will skip next week's Democratic National Convention.
Feinstein, who was one of Hillary Rodham Clinton's top supporters, was to have chaired California's delegation to the convention in Denver.
Some say its already started when the defector in the ranks of the Arkansas Democrat party was taken care of last week.
Would have to be something like a tape of Barry Obama with one of his terrorist buddies agreeing that probably someone should blow up some targets on American soil.
It would take something as big as the above for anything to change at this point IMO.

Since the November election is months away, I think it was a warning to the DNC...
Emptysuit v. Crustypantsuit
Really, I don’t want Hillary in a coup. I think Obama will be easier to beat.
There are too many downsides for the Clintons to attempt this. If they try and are unsuccessful they destroy unity and will never again be any kind of player in Dem politics.Even a win in Nov by the haloed one will result in a cry for vengeance. A defeat would cause a demand for permanent exile.
If she wins, the outcry among African Americans and the haloed ones OBAMABOTS would make a victory in NOV doubtful, at best. The Obamabots would stay home and the Clintons wil bring out conservatives with a determination not to give the Clintons another four years. McCain could name Lieberman his VP and it would not keep conservatives home.
Barring some sort of astounding news being introduced in the next week, Hillary and Bill will have to be satisfied with the Bloodsworth Thomason movie.
Scenario: HRC is known to have compiled dossiers on her political enemies in the past. Suppose she has come across some tidbit of information that would, if leaked to the media, destroy the Obama candidacy. Using this info, she can:
• sit on it “for the good of the party”
• reveal it to Obama secretly, but not to the media
• leak it to the media during the convention
If she chooses option 1, she’ll have an invincible political tool with which to manipulate Obama should he win the big prize. If she chooses 2, she can twist Obama’s arm until he gives her the VP spot or maybe even some sort of co-presidency setup. And if she chooses 3, she can zing the Obama campaign at the worst possible moment — during prime time at the convention. As the vultures of the media swoop down for the feast, HRC comes riding in on a white horse to humbly accept the nomination...
There’s also option 4 — she can leak the big secret to John McCain, and allow him to deploy it on his own schedule. Depending on when the McCain camp reveals it to the media, she could gain any of the above benefits while retaining the appearance of clean hands. She could then lambaste McCain for practicing the “politics of personal destruction” and accept a chastened Obama into her administration to use as a political puppet.
HRC isn’t stupid. If she does have the goods on Obama, you can bet she’ll pick the most opportune time to reveal them. I look forward to the fireworks in Denver...

Clinton war room stench?
It’s just plain Clinton stench.
I’d still take Hillary over Obama, and I despise Hillary.
“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.” Charles Dickens springs to mind as I read this.
Best of times - RATs in disarray, suffering from buyers remorse. Should they pull this off, there are going to be some really P.O.’d people and Denver could wind up making Chicago look like an 1890’s church social.
Worst of times - have we ever had less qualified, more egotistical people running for the highest office in the land? The hot air given off by the candidates wuld be enough to run this country for a hundred years. The only worse candidates would be Ken and Barbie! And even they would do what we wanted.
In my estimation, Denver is not only going to need Gitmo on the Platte for the outside shennanigans, but it looks like they'll need a temporary morgue for the inside of the convention as well.
