Here’s a gem:

“On why she’s voting for Hillary: “I think if history is our guide, we’ve had stronger economies, more wealth creation, under Democratic presidents than we have under Republican presidents.”

I wouldn't be surprised if there was some of that in play. But if there is some of that resentment at a personal level, it's probably more along the lines of the Obamas not wanting to have celebrities and notorious Machiavellians like the Clintons living in the same house with them, working against them, up-staging them for four years, which is why I think Obama didn't even vet Hillary, which probably ticker her off to no end.

But I think the left is driven by two gods: power and money.

At the end of the day, they'd share a house with someone they hated if it gave them one of the two.

When a key supporter of an opponent joins your team, it usually comes with an agreement behind-the-scenes. And when the Clintons are involved, it always involves a deal behind the scenes.

My point was not to speculate, it was to prepare.

Those win and survive who prepare.

If we win in November, we still need to be very vigilant and active in pushing the conservative agenda, otherwise Gov. (VP) Palin will have no backing behind her conservatism.

And make no bones about it, the Clinton folks may support us now to put McCain/Palin in the White House, but they will turn on them like rabid dogs as soon as they are in office.

The psychotic rage targeting Pres. Bush that we've seen for the last 8 years is neither psychotic nor rage. It has been a well orchestrated plan to destroy a political opponent.

That ‘rage’ will continue for the next four years, setting the stage for Hillary in 2012.

If we want conservative principles to prevail and if we want Sarah to win in 2012 (if McCain serves only one term), ALL of us have to be vigilant and we have to be active over the next four years as we were during the amnesty fight, which I predict will be one of the early, hot issues for whomever wins the White House.

The survival of the country depends upon it.

The show goes on and the story never ends.

BUT ... if McCain wins, it will be like being on the other sides 40 yard line, we may have to punt, but we have a shot at a score and the other side wont be on offense.

if Obama wins, it will be like they are on our 15 yard line. A big risk that they score touchdowns and will certainly get a field goal or two.

“The psychotic rage targeting Pres. Bush that we’ve seen for the last 8 years is neither psychotic nor rage. It has been a well orchestrated plan to destroy a political opponent.”

This isnt rage. This is hate, incited by the New Left practice of the Politics of Personal Destruction. I agree that it is orchestrated and incited deliberately. Now the hate-mongers have a home and a focus - Kos and other homes- it will fester no matter who wins and who loses. The shape and target of the destructive hate will depend on who stands in their way at any given time. For 8 years Bush has stood in their way.

At least if McCain is in there other conservatives will be left alone for 4 years.
