Let’s hope that after 3 years, 1 month and 10 days Hillary’s had enough time to figure out what difference it makes. That amount of prep time should even be sufficient for the likes of Joey B to get his answers straight.
And if old Dick Morris is correct (h/t SilverLady), old Hilz has little to worry about:
The Justice Department would never indict the putative Democratic candidate for president unless a alternative were waiting in the wings. And the reverse is true: Biden’s decision not to run is the clearest indication that no indictment will be forthcoming.
Still, there is hope that yesterday’s Rose Garden performance…
was just part of the continuing kabuki theatre that has consumed Washington. Alternate interpretation of the Rose Garden gig: Joey bows out gracefully so as not to be a spoiler; Hillary’s testimony does not, shall we say, go well. Indictment looming, Joey makes the supreme sacrifice and steps in to save the Democratic ticket just in the snitch of time (I believe that would be October 31).
All I know is that these Rose Garden affairs don’t often end the way you would expect.
At this point all I can say is “what difference does it make?”
So don’t ask “But how can it be like that?…Nobody knows how it can be like that.” – Richard Feynman

Is/was Hillary a secret smoker? I’ve never heard reference to that, except for her pot smoking with Bill back at Yale, but I noticed this AM that she has developed lines on her upper lip like those worn by long time cigarette smokers.
Biden is the Backup plan if Hillary Tanks.
The “media stunt” last week was to keep “Smokin’ Joe” fresh in everyone’s (the rabbles) mind.
He’s older than Reagan was when Reagan was running for his SECOND term as the oldest president ever.
Glad to see Mr. Toe Jam say that, as that serves to strengthen a theory:
We are watching a Machiavellian chess match between the Clinton's and Obama. They underestimated him once and may be doing so again.
If an indictment is forthcoming, why would Biden enter now? He would have to expend time and money fighting Hillary, but all the while knowing she is toast.
Recall from the past that LBJ withdrew his candidacy in March of 1964 8 months before the election.
If Hillary is indicted, Joe is in the on deck circle and will be greeted with open arms. He would be viewed as a hero: "I did not want to enter the race, but I want to heal the nation..."
Obama knows if Hillary is to be indicted, he controls the hit on her.
My guess is Obama has told Joe: "Save your money buddy, it's in the bag for you. BTW, we will need it to beat Trump."
And yet he still routinely is outwitted by a sack of hammers.
Unfortunately, Paul Ryan was no sack of hammers.
It’s beginning to look a lot like Paul Ryan might be a backstabbing traitor.
Maybe.
Looks to me like Obama has his eyes on Biden’s wife.
I said yesterday that if Biden got into the race; it would mean .. once again Hillary’s party has betrayed her and wants to dump her for a MAN.
I then speculated .. if Obama and Biden do this to her, again, she might just blow up in her Benghazi hearings, and blame the whole thing on Obama.
This could possibly expose Obama’s and Biden’s involvement in the Clinton Crime Family Foundation, and other illegal activities .. like accepting money from foreign countries who are not friendly to America.
Then, when I watched the Biden speech several times, I noticed that Jill Biden was struggled to keep from shedding tears. Rush has said, and I agree with him .. it was possible that Biden was TOLD - you are not going to run for President. The reason Rush came to that conclusion was the context of Biden’s speech .. it was classic for a person who WAS RUNNING .. but it made no sense for a person who was NOT going to run.
Noting Jill’s reaction .. I wonder how long she will be able to keep silent about what they did to Joe.
Why does Obama have his hand on Biden’s back, almost as if he’s pushing him?
It’s a control thing. He’s letting him know who’s boss. Many have said that it’s a friendly thing, but I disagree.
Maybe it was to make Biden aware that he better give the correct msg or he would be in trouble.
I can’t think of any other possible reason .. unless Biden appeared about to faint .. and I didn’t notice that happening.
Look! This just a theory. Bidens withdrawal sounded more like a I’m running speech? Many a report has stated that the Obama’s hate the Clinton’s and vise-versa. Was it may of 2008 when it became clear Hillary would lose to Obama? Could they be ready to play the ultimate spoiler, Indicting Hillary on the eave of the convention throwing the election into chaos and requiring a brokered convention throwing it to Biden to save the day! Are the Obama’s that vindictive? I suspect that they are! There is precedence for this, remember Loutenburg in New Jersey brought in at the last second to save and democrat senate seat!
