Hillary Knocked Out by Affirmative Action
While TLG
has long suspected that Hillary might steal the nomination from Obama, it appears
that is no longer possible.
Obama
has just taken the lead in the democrats' pledged super delegate count. He leads
Hillary in primary victories, delegates, popular vote and now super delegates.
If
you'll recall, super delegates aren't bound to the wishes of the voters. It was
suspected that they would fall under Hillary because of past affiliations.
So,
why did the 'rats jump from the Clinton bandwagon? There are several reasons.
While they were all tired of the Clintons with their lies and scandals, they were
afraid of them, until they erected the paper candidate of Barack Obama.
Here
was/is the dilemma for the democrats. It has now become apparent that Hillary
was the better challenger to McCain than Obama. The public has caught a glimpse
of Obama the racist and radical and even proved Hillary to be right about his
lack of experience. Furthermore, without a teleprompter, Obama is unable to speak.
However, the problem is Obama has become the poison pill for the democrats.
The
democrats finally will be able to rid their party of the Clinton fatigue factor.
The ironic thing is that they have to support a terrible candidate because of
their own flawed policies of civil rights. In Obama, they have a candidate completely
void of any substance. Worse, he carries an incredible amount of baggage. Obama
is simply a product of Affirmative Action. The democrats are afraid not to nominate
him because of the riots it would cause within their own party.
The democrats
and their own liberal media attacked any criticism of Obama as being racist. Obama's
only defense to any criticism is that his opponents and their supporters are being
racist. Unfortunately, for the Obama crew this won't work against McCain. Not
that they won't try, they will. It will be the same old divisive politics of the
left.
It won't work for a couple of reasons. Nobody believes that McCain is
a racist. McCain has far more experience than Obama. McCain is not Bush and therefore
the calls for change by the Obama camp will ring hollow. Obama has too many ties
to questionable people that TLG will explore in the coming weeks. Lastly, the
majority of Hillary supporters will not vote for Obama in the general election.
If
Obama should choose to ask Hillary to be his running mate and should she choose
to accept, both highly unlikely prospects, the democrat ticket goes down in flames.
Both have attacked each other so relentlessly that the Republicans need only repeat
the democrats' own primary ads. McCain will never have to say a bad word, the
democrats have already said all that needs to be said.
Hillary will hang on
for a while. However, the press isn't even following her anymore and the pollsters
are no longer tracking the democrats' primary race. Look for the wicked witch
to try again in four years. However, it's doubtful. Imagine what another four
more years being married to Bill Clinton will do to her.
