If Hillary knew all this stuff, why did she run for president in the first place?

So Hillary plays the role of the victim, grabs the role of the uniter and savior of the Dem party after it collapses under the wieght of Obama’s fallen god disaster, and rolls up everything with a big win after McCain has done the heavy lifiting in 2012.

the thing is, so much can and will happen in the next four years... who knows who else is going to come along and steal the show... she cannot count of being the big uniter or the big savior in four years... there are others waiting in the wings with plans of their own... people we don't yet know about...

But but but but she is too much of a meglomaniac to wait. She wants the power NOW NOW I say. Do NOT look me in the eye.

Hillary doesn't have many option. As outlined, and if possible, this would probably be her best bet. I'm sure she'd pursue this path if she could.

On the other hand, by 2012, the Clintons will be very old news. Bill may be dead, and Hillary will look like hell. I suspect it won't go any better for her next time around either.

Way too convoluted. Grassy knoll stuff.

1) She is the undisputed leader for 2012.

That concept has been blown to smithereens. There will never again be an 'undisputed leader' until campaigns are in full swing.

Until we see “the tape” I am not joining in the assumption that it exists.

If “it” does exist and Hillary has any access to it, then there are certainly ways her campaign could get it into the public domain without any “fingerprints” on it... through obscure websites unconnected with the campaign, etc.

There may be such a tape, but I doubt that the Clintonistas have it.

I find it very hard to believe that such a tape exists AND that anyone in the Clinton camp has it, or they would have found a way to use it before now.

The powers that be in the Dem Party appear to have decided that Hillary is over. Once that’s happened, I don’t think anything can resurrect her.

Michelle Obama could be on tape biting the heads off of a basket full of kittens and it wouldn’t cost Barry a single vote.

There are a lot of signs that the public is tiring of the Clintons. I think they will be even more tired of them in 2012. (And for God’s sake, I hope I’m right on that. Enough with them already.) Plus I think that above all else, Hillary wants to win NOW.

I don't agree. No one invests $10M of their own money for a possible win in 2012. She has got to find such dirt on Obama that no one will back him and the supers will come flooding her way again. Timing is everything. She probably has that dirt now, but its too soon to release it. A couple days before the convention is my bet.

She holds off, battles to the end, and makes sure the **GOP** uses the tape AFTER Obama has it locked up the nomination at the convention.

As I think about this, I find it less likely.

I know that McCain is a pansy, but a street-fighting politician would receive this gift and do the following:

1) October surprise -- Look everybody! Look at my opponent Obama! Do you want to vote for such a guy??

2) Enjoy the destruction of the Democrat candidate.

3) December surprise -- By the way everyone, do you know who really torpedoed Obama? It was Hillary! Yeah, she gave me the tape! Looked like the Democrats were going to capture the White House there. Looked like a black man was really going to be president. But Hillary killed that. Yeah, she gave me the tape, and made sure that the country got 4 more years of Republican rule, all because she didn't want the black guy to win!

4) Enjoy the destruction of the primary threat for 2012.

I don’t agree with you but I sure got a hearty chuckle out of the visual!

IMO, you overestimate the Clinton Machine.

They didn't even have the Jeremiah Wright issue out front in time to knock him out by Super Tuesday. Because that's what would have happened.

The MSM are the King's horses and men...and they can't put Humpty Dumpty back together again.

Nixon was politically dead too. Before 1998.

Interesting scenario but what if someone else gets the tape and blows the whistle? Clinton would end up the nominee after all, and all the fallout of the next four years could well land on her shoulders!
