I don’t understand your post. They all look very happy to me.

Hey, wait a sec, isn’t that John Connelly’s wife in that car?

Bet they’re all heading for a great little hotspot in Dallas called the Grassy Knoll. Great Zapruder Shrimpcakes, and their Magic Bullet martini’s? To die for.

It’s all about getting the upper hand. Making this “concession” before it is “offered” to her.

Obama was unlikely to offer it, now the ball is in his court to reject the offer (which he has previously said is not in the cards).

Obama does not go to any of his pre POTUS run hang outs and he has a bus load of USSS protection who are not singing the Blues over the Clintons.

I think he is safe.

I didn’t realize there was another thread when I first posted - my second regret is that this wasn’t posted on mine — see #26 at http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2025422/posts — it’s the best bit of animation and captioning EVER.

She’s now got her “hat in the ring” for the convention (should Obama survive further scandals on his way to Denver in August).

Could be worse, could be Hillary as McCain’s running mate.

> I thought Edwards “bought” the VP spot with his rather late endorsement.

I wouldn’t count on that at all. Obamarama will be easy pickens unless he gets some gravitas on the ticket. That doesn’t mean Hillary’s on, though... big weighty junk in the trunk does not equal gravitas. :-)

I hafta admit if Obama does name Hillary to the VP slot, I will give him some points for bravery (if not smarts). The Clinton clan plays for keeps.

Michelle would never let Obama agree to this, LOL!

If it meant him clinching the POTUS, she just might. He prolly can't win w/o her and vice-versa.

I doubt there ever was such a video. If there was, it would have made it’s way to the media by now. Reports that republicans are holding it until after the democrat convention seem hard to believe. Republicans are not smart enough or disciplined enough to do that. And even if they were and did, John McCain would then have to spend at least half his campaign budget apologizing for even finding it!

I agree. There’s no tape or we’d be watching it and McCain would be whining, moaning and going down on his knees begging for forgiveness about it.

There’s no tape. There’s only Obama’s record as a commie leftists racist anti-American.

"Hill? What about Bill snakin around in the middle of the night."

Yeah, & if this happens & they win (horrors) BHO better lock his wife up @ night w/ Bill "snakin' around!"

Naaah, on second thought, all those new young & "fresh" interns will be easier pickins for "The Bent One."

Good one. And he'll surely put ScrewyLouie in charge of *something* Might just be the USSS. (scary thought, of just who might be walking the halls of the WH, errr BH, soon)

Vince Foster’s murder would be a good first start in exposing the Clintoon machine. Between the Muslim Messiah and the long list of dead associates of the Clintons, this election will go down in history as the sleaziest American disgrace ever! Our forefathers are turning in their graves.

First sentence of Section 3 of the 20th Amendment:

If, at the time fixed for the beginning of the term of the President, the President elect shall have died, the Vice President elect shall become President.

If an Obama-Clinton ticket wins the election, then, soon after the vote of the Electors, Obama will suffer an "accident." On January 20, Vice President-elect Clinton would take the oath of office as President of the United States. Why else would she be willing to play second fiddle?

CNN predicted this last night and I posted a thread about it.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2025096/posts

Hillary's message that she was "not going to conceed", Harold Ickes going on every television program to argue she won the popular vote (if you count Michigan and Florida!), and the Hillary middle aged women at the Rules Committee meeting in DC going ape were clear signals that this was going to happen.

The high paid political pundits can't recognize clear signals from the Hillary campaign.

I doubt there ever was such a video.

I do too, but what makes is such a distinctive possibility is that Michelle Obama is clearly a black racist.

Her thesis at Princeton proves it. Her language on the campaign trail alludes to it. Her participation in that abomination of a Black Liberation Theology "church" solidifies it.

It all may be a ruse by the Clintons, but if it is they are finally being smart.

That's largely a reflection of the cesspool that today's 'Rat party has become and the far-left ideology that has become "mainstream" within the party. It's all about power and control over others, not about American history and principles and the Constitution and the rule of law. None of those latter concepts registers with today's 'Rats, so they can only use theit favorite word "change" to appeal to the gullible and unsuspecting.
