Clinton Bundler on Obama's Doyle Pick: The Biggest 'F___ Y__' Ever
Observer ^ | June 16, 2008

Posted on 06/16/2008 7:19:04 PM PDT by Shermy

A former bundler to Hillary Clinton just called in to tell me that Barack Obama's selection of Patti Solis Doyle as chief of staff to the campaign's eventual vice presidential nominee is the "biggest **** you I have ever seen in politics."

The donor, speaking on background, said that everyone in Clinton circles knows the two have hard feelings towards one another and haven't spoken since Clinton removed Solis Doyle as campaign manager, and that Clinton loyalists view her with deep suspicion and believe that she is shopping around a book deal and acted as a background source for an extremely harsh Vanity Fair piece about Bill Clinton.

"Either one of two things happen," said the bundler. "Hillary is selected as vice president and they fire Patti, or Hillary is not going to be the vice president."

The bundler said that Clinton loyalists were livid over the pick.

"You don't hire Patti Solis Doyle for her operational expertise," said the bundler. "You don't do that. This is someone who failed dramatically at her job. You only bring her on to **** someone else."

I understand that is a signal Obama will pick Hillary as running mate.

How far our Nation has fallen.

He couldn’t have chosen her anyway. He will probably pick Bill Richardson of NM.

It’s not Obama’s known style to play super-confrontational politics, so perhaps someone on his staff slipped one this by him. Even so, he is likely to pay for it, if Hillary can find any way to make it happen.

Or maybe the pick of Doyle just shows that Democrats have no depth in their talent chart. She's the best that they can do at that position, which ain't saying much.

Pretty incestuous bunch who keeps coming back to the top campaign jobs. Who's next, 9 time Presidential Campaign loser Bob Shrum?! Convicted felon Sandy Berger?! Federal Open Meetings Act violator Ira Magaziner?!

Four-letter words in The Observor, supposedly a serious magazine?

These potty-mouthed reporters have clearly never grown up. I thought the boomer generation was childish, but it keeps getting worse and worse.

“or Hillary is not going to be the vice president.””

I think that is a forgone conclusion. No way the Obamas want the Clintons around the White House.
