Let's engage in a little thought experiment.
Suppose (just suppose), that Barack Obama dies suddenly of 'natural causes' some time between now and the convention. An autopsy is performed, and the medical examiner concludes that beyond a shadow of a doubt that his death was natural (heart attack, brain hemorrage, etc.).
Who, then, will ultimately become the 'Rat nominee? Hint: it won't be Hillary.
The reason is obvious: the 'Rat base is on to the Clintons' sleaze machine as much as the VRWC. There will be an explosion of conspiracy theories on all sides that would make the '9/11 troofer' nonsense look like preschool for the tinfoil hat brigade. And 90% of the conspiracy loons would point their fingers right at the Clintons, even if they could completely prove their innocence. Considering how unhinged the base of the 'Rat party has become, there's no doubt that the conspiracy loons would take over the convention (President Kucinich, anyone? :^)
Of course, it would be unwise for Obama to turn his back on the Clintons for a second, but I find it hard to believe that even they would try anything that stupid. I could be wrong ...
The most dangerous scenario would be the Clintons recruiting some mentally disturbed person to be the hit man to take out Obama, someone who could be sold to the media as a right-wing fanatic or a Republican. Things would get pretty ugly, but Hillary could become the default nominee.
If Hillary does not get the nomination AND the presidency, she and BJ will double cross the U.S. like never before. When he left office he basically went around the world back stabbing the U.S. and gained huge world wide popularity as he did so. This time will be different. He and she will give away military and goverment secrets... or sell them most likely in a fire sale fashion.
There is going to be hell to pay for electing this traitor.. the mistake was made in 1992... but reinforced in 1996. Americans did not care in 1996 that he gave away missle technology and took campaign funds from China....they reeledted him anyway. They will pay for that mistake with the lives of those they love.
