Should Barak and Michelle Obama be worried?
worrisome vanity | Feb 20, 2008 | rface

Posted on 02/20/2008 8:40:01 AM PST by rface

Up until now – the Democrat Primaries have been more a source of amusement than a cause for concern. I have watched the blooming of Hillary’s inevitability wilt beneath the hot rhetoric of Obama’s win after win after win, and I have enjoyed the circus. I have watched Bill’s temper flare and I have imagined the “behind the scenes” raging of a pre-ordained President unable to meet her rendezvous with destiny. I have witnessed the enthusiasm of Hillary For President! fanatics fade away into an almost shamed silence. But – I remember the ruthless politics of the Clinton White House. I remember the personal destruction of Katherine Willey, Paula Jones, Gennifer Flowers and Monica. These women paid a price for being a political obstacle….. and there were many other women who paid a similar price.

Now I also remember others who paid a price for standing in the path of the Clinton Political Borg. Vincent Foster knows what I am thinking. The Branch Davidians in Waco, Texas got in the Clinton’s way. Michelle and Barak Obama are now standing squarely in defiance to the ambitions of Bill and Hillary. I wonder if what I am thinking has ever crossed the minds of either Bill or Hillary? Maybe Hillary could try to blame the “Haters of the Right”, like Bill tried to do with the Oklahoma City bombing… but I suspect the Clinton fingerprints would be far too evident.

I don't intend to clutter FR with a useless vanity post --- but I have been thinking last night that a cornered Hillary is a dangerous animal, and as much as I'd like to see Obama (or Hillary) lose in November, I'd like an Obama defete not to end in a typically Clinonesque manner.

There’s a reason Obama has a bigger security detail than Dubya. But I don’t think it’s because of Hillary.

“The reason why I think this isn’t going to go away, unless she apologizes quickly, is because it plays into a stereotype about the left wing of the Democratic Party, that it blames America first, that they don’t see the greatness of America, and it really makes me wonder if somebody who is roughly about Barack and Michelle’s age, what country she grew up in.

“I mean, I was proud of America when we won the Cold War and the Berlin Wall fell and the Soviet Union disintegrated. I was proud when we expelled Saddam Hussein from Kuwait. I was proud when we liberated 50 million people from the Taliban of Saddam Hussein. I was proud when we provided humanitarian aid to the victims of an earthquake in Iran and to a tsunami in Asia.

“I think the other thing it does is it plays into this weakness that’s developing that the Obama candidacy is sort of a modern political equivalent of Beatle mania rather than a legitimate aspiration to be commander-in-chief.”

Ralph Reed, the former Georgia GOP chairman:

Hillary wants badly to be on the top of the ticket. In the end, however, she would accept the second slot to ensure a path to power. If she could not turn Obama into a puppet, she could at least arrange an accident.

Remember, most of the hardcore left loves Hillary and Obama. Right now, they just love Obama more.

You said it best!

““I think the other thing it does is it plays into this weakness that’s developing that the Obama candidacy is sort of a modern political equivalent of Beatle mania rather than a legitimate aspiration to be commander-in-chief.”

All Air and no stuff. Listening to his speech last night on Fox (barf) he said nothing other then we have a lot of costly ideas and you will have to pay for them. Everything was give the people more baubles and we will have to raise taxes. “Free Health care just like congress gets”

They should worry, I think, because Obama is a very beatable candidate in the general election. Shamelessly liberal and absurdly inexperienced.

As for the JFK comparison, I would say any given JFK speech had more substance than all of Obama's appearances put together.

I’m not worried about Obama. If he’s escaped Sharia law for allegedly becoming an apostate to the Religion of Peace, he’s safe from Arkancide.

I agree. Obama would be crazy to have a power hungry couple around him plotting his layout at Ft Marcy Park.

And I can't imagine a more dangerous position for Obama to be in.

Me either. It's because of all those middle aged, white, NRA card carrying right-wing-religious extremists out there waiting with the sheets and the ropes. Unfortunately, that's just the way those "open minded" progressives think. Their minds are so narrow you could use them as letter openers. THEY think that means they're sharp. **sigh**

Remember the term “Arkancide”? I would put NOTHING past the Clintons. They are capable of anything.
