Seems like an odd hour for a story, unless it has some legs?
(Excerpt) Read more at thepage.time.com ...
Is obomination stupid enough to put one of HIS heartbeats between hillary robbem klipem and the presidency?
Is McCain?
She's not "settling" for VP.
VP is the goal:
As I've been saying for many years, I'm worried about VICE President Clinton.
Think of it:
Two years and one day into her term the first slotter gets arkincided
Under Article XXII, she can still run for two full terms as the incumbent
The Glorious Hillary! Decade begins
Hillary uses the Patriot Act to it's fullest extent, and beyond
At the end of the Glorious Hillary! Decade there is a National Emergency "temporarily" delaying the elections
Under the pressure of the National Emergency, the 2nd and 22nd amendments are repealed
By the time the National Emergency is over all the 'improved' source code for the touch screen electronic balloting will be in place......
Just as an aside, with the Clinton's well known love of 'ethnics', Obama is very expendable, isn't he?
His half term plus one day. See above.
Nope. His lack of AKC papers will save his life, he doesn't have to die to get kicked out of office, only to be ruled ineligible to hold that office.
And he's good until 1/21/11...
I'm good!
Except that the Secret Service would never allow it...
So my latest conspiracy theory is that she’ll be the veep. Serve for two and a half years. Then Obama’s real birth certificate emerges and she finishes his term. Plus will have 8 more years as commander in chief. By that time, with all the illegals voting for libs, and the supreme court filled with marxists, they’ll repeal the two term limit and she’ll serve as president for the remainder of her life.
Yeah. Her and her supporters are cut from the same cloth.
Wow. I almost Freudian slipped an 'n' into cut...
It's the clintons. hello????
This one. I might be able to suppress my gag reflex long enough to pull the McCain lever if he has a Solid conservative in the VP slot.
In 25 words or less:
Yes.
They would stop it how, exactly?
REDWOOD99 ~ If it does happen and he gets elected, hes a dead man.
Dahoser ~ He'd be like a bomber lemming walking around with a countdown clock over his head.
palomonte ~ Therefore - why should she take the VP spot - shes got all the leverage.
9YearLurker ~ Which is why if shes smart she settles for #2 for nowand makes her move after the first Tuesday in November.
hosepipe ~ Hillary can become the VeeP though.. just before Obama becomes a victim of some terrible trajedy.. You know like Vince Foster..
mainerforglobalwarming ~ So my latest conspiracy theory is that shell be the veep. Serve for two and a half years. Then Obamas real birth certificate emerges and she finishes his term. Plus will have 8 more years as commander in chief. By that time, with all the illegals voting for libs, and the supreme court filled with marxists, theyll repeal the two term limit and shell serve as president for the remainder of her life.
See post #83...
If he does pick Hillary, it may not be the last mistake he makes but it will sure be one of the last mistakes he makes in this world.
If I was the company that held his life insurance policy, the moment he picked Hillary to be his running mate, I would cancel his policy.
If the Clintons have something big on him why would she settle for vp and not pres?
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
It’s actually the perfect scenario for the Clintoons, if Obama wins she becomes president when Obama dies young for some reason or other and if he loses she is the automatic front runner for the 2012 nomination and can say that, had she been at the top of the ticket she would have won.
At that point his real birth certificate becomes his life insurance.
It allows the clintons to get him out of the way without actually killing him.
“You can have the best spare tire in the world, and when you put it on a junk car, the car is STILL a junk car.”
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Bad analogy, the VP is not like a spare tire but more like a second car. Remember those bumper stickers we used to see on little compacts saying,”My second car is a Rolls-Royce”?
Nope, she'd dispose of him two years after the inauguration. Then she'd legally have the rest of his term, and the possibility of two more full terms after that. Look it up, it's straight out of the 22nd Amendment.
She's sure put Barry in an awkward position. He either deals with the pressure to nominate her after her roll call vote (where Edwards' name is sure to cause a few snickers among the folks watching at home), or he announces a choice before the convention, and has to deal with thousands of femihags screaming at him about it.
Add to it the fact that Michigan and Florida are going to seat fully voting delegations, and you might just have the possibility that Shrillery's name is tossed out as a VP nomination from the floor. There is a small, but sizable minority of Obama delegates who think Obama-Clinton is a dream ticket, and if they can unite with those who are vociferously for Clinton at the top of the ticket, it might make no difference who Obambi picks.
Hillary wins any way you look at it. If she gets the VP slot, and wins with Obama, she gets to govern from behind, until she can drum up the appropriate scandal to get Barry to quit. If she gets it and they lose, she's the automatic front-runner for the 2012 nomination. That was Edwards' strategy, and if he had kept it in his pants (and Obama had not come out of nowhere), it would have worked.
If she loses the VP nomination, then she's the "victim" of the Obamanators, and she's way better at playing the victim card than he could ever be. If he then goes on to win, she can hobble him from the Senate, if he loses, then again, she's the automatic front-runner for the 2012 Rat race, because the story will be "if we'd have went with Hillary instead...".
I wonder if a conversation was had which resulted in Hillary asked a question like this:....If you are going to ick me for VP I have to know by 20th in order to know how to frame my speech. I will assume I will not be offered the position if I don’t hear something by then.
