When I saw that Hillary Clinton had gained control of what is supposedly going to be Osambo OhBummer’s nomination, I laughed hard and I’m still laughing.

Here’s one take on this situation:“Hillary and Bill have hijacked the Denver convention, making it into a carbon copy of what it would have looked like had she won until the last possible moment. By the time Obama gets up to speak and put his stamp on the convention, Hillary will have had one prime time night all to herself. Bill will have pre-empted a second night. Hillary will have had all the nominating and seconding speeches she wants. And the roll call of the states would record, in graphic detail, how the voters of state after state rejected Obama’s candidacy in the primaries. Only then, after three and a half days of all Clinton all the time will the convention then, finally, turn to its nominee and allow him to have an hour in the sun!”

The question is asked, “If he does so poorly in negotiating with the Clintons, how will he do with the Russians? This Clintonian tour de force raises a key question about Barack Obama: Is he strong enough to be president or can he be pushed around? His failure to stand up to the Clintons makes one wonder how effective he will be against bin Laden, Iran, Chavez, or Putin.”

The Clintons are like bulldogs, they never let go, and that fool Obama may have just given away his bid for the presidency. Hillary has never released all those delegates of hers, and there’s a real possibility that when the first vote comes in from all the uncommitted delegates, it could be close enough that a re-vote is required. Sometimes a number of repeats are needed to establish a decisive margin, and, what if, now, what if, during the Obama campaign, enough of the delegates who voted for him previously should have had second thoughts? It wouldn’t take all that many to change sides to put Hillary over the top, as every vote that leaves him for Hillary is actually two votes when you consider the number change.

If they each have 100 and one goes over to Hillary, she then has 101 to his 99, 2 more than him. There are over 4000 Democratic delegates total. If 122 of Obamas left him for Hillary or simply withheld their vote at the convention, he wouldn’t have enough votes to become their nominee. From there we could gleefully watch all Hell break loose. What fun it would be to watch.

Of course, the likelihood of this happening is slight at best, but it is still a viable possiblility. You never know what the Clintons have up their sleeve, and that they’ve been able to pull off this coup says a lot about what else they may have planned.

Obama deserves to be stepped on like this. He’s an absolute liar who has re-written his personal history out of all similarity to reality, he’s an admitted cocaine and alcohol abuser, possibly dealt drugs, lies about his Islamic heritage, has openly supported Islamic and domestic terrorists, has criminals for friends and racists for ministers and what may be most important for Americans, lost the popular vote but gained his ascendancy through lopsided caucuses. His first move should have been to make peace with Hillary and offer her to be his vice presidential running mate, but instead I’ve no doubt he will announce his choice to be one of the worst crooks in Congress, simply because of his past choices. He likes unsavory people. Birds of a feather….

Now that Hillary will come up for the nomination vote, many of the die-hard groups behind her who don’t like Obama and have declared that they’ll vote for McCain rather than Obama, will be working hard to sway the minds of Obamas delegates, especially now that it’s clear that his V.P. choice will not be Hillary. There’s a lot of dissention in the Democrats ranks right now and if enough delegates would agree to switch over if enough others would do it with them, Obamas “sure thing” could be turned completely upside down.

This Democratic Convention is making history as it is, with a woman and a black person as its potential nominees, something that’s never happened before.  One decent screw-up by Obama before the Convention, or even one more damaging revelation like that racist church and minister of his, could put an end to his presidential aspirations.

 Since I consider that man to be even worse than George Bush, an “Obama Nation”, (buy it here) as one book title has it, it would please me greatly to see him gone as a contender for the presidency of my country.
