I don’t often give Democrats advice but when I do, it is good advice.
Hillary Clinton has a choice she has to make. This one should seem like an obvious choice. It is a tough choice but obvious.
What is it?
Barack Obama is throwing Hillary under the bus. Obama cannot accept blame for anything and his handling of the Benghazi Consulate attack has been nothing short of disastrous. Obama not only lied about the attack, he blamed the violence on an idiotic video instead of its real cause, Islamic terrorism.
Unfortunately for Obama, the scandal is blowing up in their faces. Obama must deflect criticism of himself, so what does he do? He is throwing Hillary under the bus.
What does Hillary do?
There is some irony here. Bill Clinton has been the one Obama has called on to be his lifesaver. Bill Clinton was the star of the Democrat Convention, not Obama.
This is how Barack Obama repays Bill Clinton.
Sources say Bill Clinton is furious and Obama will not return his calls.
Hillary has made no secret of the fact she plans to leave if there is a second Obama term. She has also made it no secret that she is looking at running in 2016.
So what should she do?
She should resign a week before the election. She should do it in a very loud and public manner. She should lay waste to the Obama Regime.
One of the reasons Hillary is not doing this is because she fears many in the Democrat Party would hold it against her that she destroyed Obama’s reelection chances.
She is right. Initially that is exactly what would happen. But that is a short-term problem. Four years from now, when the Democrats have their next convention, Barack Obama is not going to be welcomed back like a conquering hero. In other words, he is not going to be welcomed back like Bill Clinton was welcomed to Charlotte.
Democrats look back with nostalgia to the days of the Clinton Presidency. They do not look back with nostalgia to the days of the Carter Presidency. The Obama term will be the same as the Carter term.
Hillary wants to run for President in 2016. If Obama wins, that will not happen. First, as unbelievable as it sounds, Joe Biden would be poised to run and be the nominee.
Second, as soon as Obama is reelected, Bill and Hillary will be cast on the trash heap. Not only will the Obama team blame Hillary for Benghazi, they will spend the next four years totally destroying her. Obama hates the Clintons. Theirs has been an alliance of necessity for the last four years but once the election is over, Obama does not need them any more.
He would love nothing better than to destroy Hillary and make certain she is not on the ballot in 2016.
The Republicans will hold Congressional inquiries but they will be nothing compared to what the Obama team will do to her.
The question is, will Hillary do what it takes to sink Obama?
“The question is, will Hillary do what it takes to sink Obama?”
Hillary will do whatever is good for Hillary period.
WAY Beyond unbelievable.
“she fears many in the Democrat Party would hold it against her that she destroyed Obama’s reelection chances.”
She could kiss the black vote good bye if she did that. The blacks would never forgive her. I believe that would destroy her 2016 chances if they are not gone already. I think the best way for her to get even is through leaks harmful to Obama. This could really get good. That 9/11 date is coming in handy for this election.
Believe it:

Hillary is too chicken to do anything but suck up to her Mack-daddy.
I hate to say it, but once again, this is not necessarily an either/or situation.
As with the Gun-Runner scandal, Barry and Hillary are both up to their necks in this, IMHO. The State Department refused to fund security for embassies, although they apparently have plenty of money for it. And Hillary jumped in and lied with the best of them when the murder broke into the news.
Not only that, but Barry’s love affair with the Muslim Brotherhood, and his penchant for siding with the Arabs, is no worse than Hillary’s love affair with the same Muslim terrorists.
It would be one thing if she refused to be thrown under the bus because she had nothing to do with it. But I think the tar of guilt is smeared all over her as well as over Barry Hussein.
Of course, the media are incredibly skilled at hiding such guilt, and they would jump to do it if they thought that Hillary would make the best replacement for Barry in implementing their Communist, one-world designs.
Exactly. The next democrat nominee will be hispanic.
There is a back room where all deals are made. Obama has something on the Clintons or they would not serve him despite all his betrayals of them. Obama knows how to press buttons and manipulate his puppets. Only those who love and serve the truth can avoid the fear and greed of cult Obama. If the heart is impure, Obama can get in there and rule.
I don’t see Obobo throwing anybody under any bus. What are you looking at? Besides, the News Media decides who gets thrown under any buses. And they are sitting on this scandal.
So what can WE do about THEM ?
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Does this mean we now will support Hillary in this Benghazi mess?
Joe Biden would never get past the primaries.
This, I believe, is true .... Clintons will be persona non grata to Obama if he's re-elected and the former SoS will be blamed for everything .... she might become the new 'Bush'.
You haven’t been watching the last three days, then. Axelrod and the press office are blaming the State Department, unabashedly.
Sounds like a fairy tale... but Hillary is washed up... she has been used like a scullery wash rag and she has no bearing on reality (what liberal does)... she thinks she is serving a noble progressive cause and imagines herself “queen of the trampled”... she counts it a badge of honor to be discarded for the high cause of progressivism, almost the same as a jihadist suicide bomber gives up his body for his fanatical illusion.
I’ll bet Hillary is cutting a backroom deal as we speak.
Cutting a back room deal with who and for what??
Hillary’s political career is toast is she does not distance herself from Obama.
Only if it can be done in such way that she has *complete* denial-ability.
For reasons we can only guess at, she took a dive in 08 and allowed him to get the nomination. She had the ammo to put his lazy ass through a PR meat grinder and didn't. The Clintons are as cold, calculating and ruthless as they come. It's hard to believe she will take the fall for this.
OTOH, what could possibly have compelled them/her to kiss off a sure thing in getting the 08 nomination? And is that unknown still in play?
