Boy Oh Boy Obama! (A Clinton set-up?)
American Thinker ^ | 10/24/06 | Noel Sheppard

Posted on 10/24/2006 5:13:40 AM PDT by teddyballgame

This sets up a wonderful scenario where a clearly left-leaning, attractive black candidate attempts to take the front-runner position as Hillary waits in the wings, deflecting media scrutiny away from her. At the same time, Bill and Hill keep their profiles high by aggressively campaigning for this relatively unknown minority candidate who likely fares poorly in early public opinion polls compared to folks like Gore, Kerry, and Edwards whom the Clintons know don’t have a prayer.

As the primaries draw near, and the Democrats seem doomed to repeat past mistakes by nominating past failures, a groundswell emerges for Hillary to come off the bench, and save the party from another four to eight years in purgatory. Of course, Obama becomes Hillary’s vice presidential nominee.

Sound contrived? Well, the Clintons lending support to a presidential candidate that wasn’t even mentioned in recent polls signals a grander plan that likely benefits them more than him.

Sounds a bit far-fetched, but I would put nothing past the Clintonoids in their quest for power.

You can theorize, speculate, contrive, and
hypothecate on a hillary run, but there is no
way she wins a national election. The Clinton's
will be losers eternally...and the DBM/dems will
go right down the same path.

The way that the media are slobbering all over this guy, I would advise him to steer clear of Ft Marcie Park.

Tail, the Clinton's are not afraid of Obama for one reason.
His Muslim Heritage.

Bloggers have uncovered his full name:

Barak Hussein Obama

Amen. The Clintons have personally thrived. Politically they are a disaster for the democrats. They are dragging the party into permanent minority status.

Hopefully, the 08 elections will signal the end of the Clinton's control of the Party and the democrats will be forced to return to sanity and forced to nominate a real Common Sense American whose electability will force the republicans to the right

Think they'll make him use his full name when he is sworn in as president?

I wouldn't put it past the Clintons to have their minions encourage him to run, have Hillary delay her announcement, let him take all the hits, and then come in on the white horse to "save" the Party.

The media also fawned over Dean early on.

In the Lieberman/Lamont race, the Dems have already proven they are well prepared to trot out their own special brand of racism. The Clintons may find a more subtle approach, but Obama will be 'taken care of' prior to a Hillary run.

Yes, I believe the Clinton hemeroids are helping promote this Obama for King baloney.

However, I dont believe even the Democrats would be so stupid to allow this newby nitwit to be the defacto leader of the Democrat Party.

Which is why Hillary will select Obama as her VP candidate, after she wins the Dem primaries in 08.

The only fault in this theory is the grwoing concern among the mnoonbats that Hillary can not win. MSM is having buyer's remorse on the coronation of Her Heinous.

Mojo, two Northeastern liberals on the ticket? Nope a electoral disaster. Hillary would have to pick a Conservative Democrat like Dukakis did with Bentsen.

Illinois and NY are already Blue and blacks do not vote GOP anyways.

This ticket would not get 150 electoral votes against the 9/11 mayor or Vietnam vet McCain.

It's fairly obvious to me that the dhimmi's are grooming Osamabamarama for the VP slot by placing him in the early presidential running. That way when he fades as a front runner but suprises everyone with more apparent support than expected as a wet-nosed newby congressman, the front runner (read Hitlery) will choose him as her VP running mate for 2008. I pray this nation isn't stupid enough to fall for this Marxist political tag team plot.

The Clintons deal on ground level. While everybody is trying to advance (or dismiss) Osama's chances on an intellectual level and trying to steer clear of political correctness, the Clintons know what matters to Americans. In this post 9-11 world, some guy named O-B-A-M-A (whether he be black, white, Asian or Middle Eastern) is not going to be elected President of the United States.
