G.O.P To Endorse Hillary Clinton In Her White House Bid




Sounds preposterous, doesn't it?

On the surface, it does. I've listened to so-called conservatives talk for over a decade about the now junior Senator from New York. She's been called everything except a child of God, including "Hitlery", " Hildabeast" and worse.

But as I watched the post-game of the recent Fox "Not The News" News debate between the G.O.P. candidates, it suddenly occurred to me what the Republican National Committee is trying to do.

The Republicans Are Trying To Get Senator Hillary Clinton Elected!

The biggest rise out the panel judging the debate for Fox always came when one of the can'tidates (as in "We Can't Let Hillary Win" Candidates) mentioned the DNCs probable nominee for President.

The debate crowd heard "Hillary Clinton" much more than "Ronald Reagan" and we should get ready for more of this. They have to know it makes her stronger every time they speak her name. It makes Democrats think "If this is what the party of GWOT is really afraid of, maybe that's what we need".

It almost makes sense to me (except for the whole "she's not really a liberal" thing that no body's figured out).

I've heard callers on talk radio, and talk radio show hosts say they wanted Senator Clinton to win, so that she could mess things up so bad, the country would have to elect a Republican next time.

They're scared Hillary will create a government health care state


President Bush has laid the foundation with the Seniors drug program, and a failure to talk the American Public (or at least a Republican Congress) into supporting.

They know Senator Clinton will "cut-and-run" in Iraq

Uhh, no she won't... Of all the Democrats seeking the nomination, her policy would most resemble President Bush's stance on foreign affairs, and Iraq.

If Senator Hillary Clinton wins the nomination, the Republican Party will have their cake and eat it too. They'll have the President in power most like George Bush, and they'll get to complain about her for 4 (probably 8) years. So-called "Conservative" talk will flourish, and Democrat bashing will abound. Who will be the Kenneth Starr to Bill's Hillary?

After all, if there is one thing we've learned over the last 12 years of "conservative" rule. The G.O.P. makes a much better minority party. They make a better armchair quarterback, than coach. Its better to complain about the way things are run, than actually run them.

The Republican National Committee has figured it out. That's why they're hoping she'll win.

Head-Fake: How Who Wrote The Iraw Report Matters Less Than What They Said


Democrats have accused General David Petraeus of following orders from President Bush while giving his report to Congress this week.

Republicans have accused these Democrats of being un-American for making this accusation.

Rudy Giuliani thinks Senator Clinton should condemn Move On for their characterization of General Petraeus as General Betray-us, while he takes the same discount he seemed so outraged that Move On got for running the ad.

If we assume that General Petraeus is taking marching orders from President Bush, then we have to at worst accuse him of doing his job. He does take marching orders from the President. The Constitution demands it.

Sure, the numbers in Iraq look better. Of course, a lot of it is because the military has re-classified what it calls war dead. A shot through the front of the head is considered a crime, not an act of war, and is not counted. Only a shot through the back of the head is now considered worthy of being considered an act of war.

And yes, we appear to have stopped counting Sunni on Sunni or Shia on Shia murders as acts of war too.

So what if it appears the violence in Anbar Province relented once we gave power back to the people who controlled the province before the invasion. Sure, they (the Sunni warlords, aka batheists) have what they had before the war (control of their region) and more (tax-payer's money), but we'll call it a victory and no-one will notice (seems to be working).

What's really important is who wrote it. Never mind that it uses fuzzy math that would make Al Gore's head spin. Never mind that we've spent 4 years in Iraq, and are now giving power and money to the people we invaded to remove their power in the first place.

While we argue over who held the shovel, our military is up to its eyeballs in it. The reduction in troops that President Bush touted as a sign of victory was necessary anyway, due to the over-extension of our military in the region over a long period of time.

President Bush was talking to about 10 people (liberal Republicans in the senate and house that keep war-supporters veto power in tact), and it looks like they heard it.

The press once again fell for it, and these few hold-overs got the cover they needed to keep the troops in Iraq until President Bush's replacement takes the oath.

Who ever wrote the report that General Petraeus gave to Congress on Thursday should get promoted. They pulled off the biggest head-fake since 2003, and left the Democrats once again impotent to stop the war.

All the while, our brave men and women serving in Iraq are, once again, left on the fence between several factions fighting to gain control of their country. Lest we forget, they won the war in a month in 2003. They've been waiting like brave warriors since then waiting to come home.

Republicans for Hilary: Wasting your vote for the good of our country


What if Republican voters in states that allow open primaries went to the polls to vote for John Edwards?

Or Barak Obama?

What if they went in droves to vote for her to head the Democratic ticket?

As I've stated many times, she's the only way the Republicans can win in 2008, and Republicans have known this for some time.

They've done this before, perhaps on a smaller scale. A few years ago, the Republican party made a deal with Denise Magette to allow her to run unopposed in the general election after many Republicans crossed the aisle to vote against Cynthia McKinney.

I've made it known that this plan will backfire.

It may however create an opening for someone like Ron Paul. Ron Paul is one of the few Republican candidates who is a great deal more conservative than Senator Clinton.

So, as a supporter of independent candidates, Ron Paul, and Unity 08, I say to all good Republicans who don't like to think about the issues, and easily fall for the deamonization of the "other side", go out and do your part. Vote for Hillary Clinton in your local primary.

If you are going to be stupid enough to fall for this "Hitlery" bull-poop (she's more conservative than Rudy Giuliani for heavan's sake), you deserve to waste your vote, which in turn will give those of us who are really trying to change our government that much more power.

RNC for Hillary Clinton:

I have been aware of the RNC's almost overt strategy to force the Democratic party's Presidential nomination onto Senator Hillary Clinton for some time now. Its getting more intense as we count the days until November 2008.

The strategy is obvious, and the tactical operations are already under way. There are signs all over Atlanta (paid for by the local radio station) blasting Senator Clinton while advertising for Shawn Hannity's radio show.

The RNC understands that Senator Clinton is their best chance to get any Republican elected in 2008. They need her, and they need her to be successful.

With Democratic nominee Clinton, the Republicans think they have the perfect storm setup to keep control of the White House, and re-assume control of both houses of Congress.

The Republicans will be able to appeal to their base (conservatives who are anti-Clinton to the core), and with Mitt Romney or Rudolph Giuliani (or Newt Gingrich, as I have predicted) as the Republican nominee and their base secured, they can make a b-line toward the center of American Politics.

You remember the center, right? The center elected George W. Bush President. The center also put the Democrats back in charge at the beginning of this year.

With the base energized, and the center in your corner (believe me, the Republican nominee will be hopping a jet plane to the center as soon as he can), you cant loose.

This is going to backfire on the Republican Party, and the result could likely be a 2nd Clinton Administration.

You see, the center is starting to wake up. The center is beginning to understand what both the Republican and Democratic parties are all about. They are about whatever it takes to win an election. They are about using fear (of a Clinton Presidency for the right, and Iraq for the left) to maintain a strangle hold on power.

Neither party has been about governing for quite some time.

We are going to have a major 3rd party candidate this year. Whether it be Ron Paul, Michael Bloomberg, George Phillies or someone else, it is inevitable. And it will affect the outcome of the election. This 3rd way will divide the center into 3 separate but unequal blocks of voters. Check out those first two names. Do you really think either one of them are going to take votes from Hillary Clinton?

The RNC is firing up their base. But they're also firing up Senator Clinton's base, and getting her votes. The cente-left is going to vote for Senator Clinton if she's nominated. Because of Iraq (it doesn't make sense, I know, but I'm not wrong), and the Bush Administration's incompetence to govern (this one makes complete sense to me.) The center-right is going to either not vote (because they don't think they have a choice) or vote for the 3rd party candidate.

I do not support Senator Clinton because of her policy ideas. I do not believe government health care is wise, nor do I think that throwing more money into the educational system that needs a total overhaul to be in the best interest of our country. I don't call her names because I understand her positions, and that is reason enough for me not to support her. I don't think she's Hitler. I just think she's wrong.

But the RNC is going to get Hillary Clinton elected President of the United States. So remember the next time you throw the word "libtard" or "Hitlery" into your comment to Doc Jay's blog that you probably just helped give Hillary Clinton one more vote.

That's why I'm blaming you when she takes the oath. Not the liberals. Not the 3rd party voters. Not Hillary Clinton. At least she's smart enough to realize what's going on and embrace it.

That shows a political shrewdness of the highest order, and I think we can thank the most conservative President since Richard Nixon (I'm talking about Bill Clinton) for seeing it, and taking advantage of the RNC strategy.

After all, it worked for him twice, didn't it?
