We’ve heard this one before. I’ll believe it when I see it: Sen. Hillary Clinton will hold an event with supporters by Friday, likely ending her historic bid for the……

Yesterday Hugh Hewitt said guilty verdicts would be a huge blow to Obama, more damaging than his Trinity Church problems, but I didn’t follow why.

Anyone?

A possible bribe to Obama in the form of a parcel of land for considerably less than its value.

THis same kind of transaction is what put Duke Cunningham behind bars.

Didn’t he plead out?

I haven’t been following this guy but it looks like he done alot of bad things over the years. M. Malkin’s blog is saying he’s got another trial after this one’s over. Perhaps he pleaded out on something more serious.

You know I heard he had as well, but I don’t remember where.

I think it’s a combination of both.

There may be a “tape”, I am talking about an incriminating tape.
If it was sold on a website, there would be dozens of tapes lying around. Even the scumbag MSM would want to have the scoop on this, if for no other reason but to torpedo the Republicans plan.
Someone has that tape, does not like Obama or has been dissed by the church or some other problem and they would make it public. That tape would be worth tens of thousands of dollars…
And whomever broke the story would be up for a pulitzer prize (wouldn’t get it, but be honored, then fired).

I think she’s going to campaign hard for him and by the time August rolls around, polls will show the vast majority of her one-time die-hard supporters will be on board for Obama. With no leverage left but owed a favor, she’ll gladly settle for a less-visible cabinet spot. That will be a smart move for Obama: It’ll be harder for her to stage an insurgent run in ‘12 against her boss than it would be from the Senate.

The only question is will she then try to get hubby or Chelsea installed in her seat – and the circus will be back in town…

OHH I hope so! Espeically since Allah put a new wright thread up!

OH OH Rezko found GUILTY!

Then going into Indiana and North Carolina why wouldn’t they have drooped it in someone’s in-box?

Because, as Flopping Aces posits, Hillary isn’t the one who has the tape, and they are holding it because they don’t want Hillary to be the nominee.

The only thing that is odd is why this didn’t came out before, but then again Reverend Wright’s words were there for everyone to hear for well over a year before someone actually bothered to go through the DVDs from the TUCofC bookstore.

Maybe this is the other shoe that was going to drop? If so, Barry’s got some ’splaining to do.

I want pie.

RushBaby on June 4, 2008 at 4:52 PM

I got strawberry, rhubarb, crow berry (yep that actually IS a berry) pie… home made.

And as for hillary quitting.. QUITTER!

FYI everyone; Obama has a say, a strong say, but the VP is chosen by the delegates, not him. He can only suggest, the choice is out of his hands.

I think that then makes my point even stronger.

On the Republican side, McCain has proven that nobody is competitive with him this season. I leave aside whether this is good or bad. He beat everybody else. Obama won the nomination according to the rules but he didn’t knock her down.

I think she gets to live with the idea that she can’t be number 1. He in all likelihood must accept that he is not free who to choose as his number 2.

Compelling evidence that the Michelle Obama “whitey” tape is a hoax. If it exists, surely Hillary’s people have seen it by now, and if it’s as bad as all that they wouldn’t be so hot to lay down their arms just yet.

I don’t know, Allah. I was in the skeptics column too until I saw these details and this explanation as to why it’s being held which makes a lot of sense if the tape does exist.

There is no tape, an urban myth, built upon false hope.

But as far as I know there hasn’t been any claims from the Obama campaign that such a tape doesn’t exist. So either a) they don’t want to dignify the claim with a response or b) Michelle Obama has said so many hateful things in the public before Barak Obama declared his candidacy, they can’t be sure such a tape doesn’t exist.

I think it’s a combination of both.

You owe me a beer! (damnit!)

Hillary’s staff unemployed as of Friday

They’re lucky. With Hillary as the ex-employer, I’m damn sure their health insurance won’t end. After all, that would just kill Hillary to live in a country where that kind of thing happens. She said so herself last night. It’s her life’s work.

Damn economy!
