Obama Biden - Or Billary?

With Obama's numbers not reaching the expected run-away status, will Obama really be the Democrat pick?  Or can Shrillary Clinton step in to take the candidacy? Some may remember Harold Ickes saying "Hillary will be the Democrat nominee", when it was considered a done deal that Obama was IT.  Now that Oblahblah has an establishment running mate, does he look any less scary to undecided voters?  Perhaps.  I still would not count her out, nor would commenters here

"He’s dead right about the arbitrariness of the decision on the Michigan delegation. Awarding Obama delegates in Michigan is based, not on what Michigan voters actually said, but what party officials want to see happen.

Nobody told Obama he had to take his name off the ballot in Michigan. Candidates signed a pledge that required them not to “campaign or participate” in certain states, including Michigan, but it did not explicitly require them to take their names off the ballot.

Why did some of Hillary’s opponents take their names off the ballot, then? Because they knew she would win anyway, and judged it better to question the legitimacy of the election, rather than participate and lose. As Bill Schneider explained it, Hillary’s opponents “don’t want a Clinton victory in Michigan to count.”

This suggests there are some legal paths that can still be explored.  I plan to watch the Democrat convention very carefully.  Obama has tried to placate his adversary Clintons by giving over some very prime time space at the convention.  His attempt to assuage Billary is going to work as well as trying to placate Osama bin Ladin!  It's not going to do any good, and could be very dangerous for his position.  I would bet any amount of money that Slick Willie and Shrillary have been on the phone all week to delegates leading up to the convention, telling them "He cannot win" and "It's not too late to put her at the head of the ticket".  Stand back and enjoy the scenes as they play out folks.  If they do not prevail, i.e., the Clintons, you can expect that she will quietly tell her supporters to vote for McCain, so she can be back in 2012.  This is going to be fun!

    A Democrat in the White House and large Democratic majorities in the
    House and Senate could mean:
    To get around Bush’s
    veto we need a landslide
    Democratic victory
    on November 4th that
    increases the Democratic
    majority in the House
    and Senate and puts a
    Democrat in the White
    House. This would be a
    huge defeat of the ultraright
    and will open up new
    areas of struggle.
    McCain wants to keep us in Iraq for another 100 years. He wants a foreign
    policy based on corporate profiteering and military aggression. To end the
    war in Iraq and to address the needs of youth and students at home and
    abroad, we need a Democratic landslide victory in November.
    • Passing legislation that would start troop withdraws in 2009
    • Ensure that no permanent military bases or contractors are left behind
    in Iraq
    • Create a foreign policy based on diplomacy and cooperation
    The Real Path
    to Peace
    THE 2008 ELECTIONS OFFER US AN OPPORTUNITY TO END THE WAR IN IRAQ!
    On November 4th,
    say NO to the Ultra-right!
    Youth demand a future, and we demand it right now.

      A few reasons why Obama will be defeated;
      1) Americans do not like to lose wars. We will leave Iraq when we're sure that theater of the GWOT has been won,
      2) Americans are learning how far left the lying empty-suit Obama really is! Why else would Obama Nation & The Case Against Barack Obama are national best sellers?
      3) A veto-proof majority of Democrats in the house and senates, and an Obama presidency would effectively reduce our country to a severe depression, a crippled military, and a reduction of our power and status in the world, which I am sure is why you commie pinkos support them.

      Thank you for outing yourselves on my blog!
