Yesterday, I read a report in World Net Daily by Joseph Farah about Barack Obama. He wrote about the Communist Party and who the Communists like in the race for President. He stated that they did not endorse a particular candidate. They did write about Barack Obama in glowing terms. They wrote about Mrs. Bill Clinton in generalized terms. In effect, they endorsed Barack Obama for President.
A short time later, I heard a clip of Michelle Obama on the Hugh Hewitt Show. In the clip, she talks about how the government is going to change your heart and the government will give you a job. She talks so glowingly about the government and how the government will do this and that. The effect was scary. It reminded me of the old Soviet leaders and how they talked. When I put that clip with what Joseph Farah wrote in World Net Daily, the effect was chilling. Now, that was Michelle Obama, not Barack Obama. But, she would not say something that was not endorsed by Barack. That is what makes her remarks so chilling.
The odd person in this story is Mrs. Bill Clinton. She has worked tirelessly for the Communist Party for years. She was a believer in the party back in college. She worked in all the right jobs. She married the right person to ride the coat-tails to the top rungs of power. She got herself elected to one of the most powerful positions in the world. She positioned herself to be elected to the most powerful position in the world and then this upstart comes along and steals her thunder. She must be fit to be tied that Barack Obama is getting all the praise and honor that is her due. She should be President. She has believed that since her days in college.
Mrs. Clinton has paid her dues and worked her way to the top over the years. Barack Obama has had the top handed to him. She has to be feeling pangs of envy. She is not finished yet. She has more tricks to pull out of her bag. She feels like she is owed the Presidency and she is going to get it any way she can. If that means playing some dirty tricks, then she will play some dirty tricks to win the Presidency. Barack Obama should expect to see some unexpected dirty tricks played on his campaign in the next few weeks. Mrs. Clinton is still counting on winning the battle of the Super Delegates. Right now, she has about 2/3 of the committed delegates. Some of them are going wobbly on her. She will work to shore them up and get more of the uncommitted delegates.
If Mrs. Clinton takes second in the number of elected delegates and manages to pull off the nomination, then many Democrats will cry foul. Democrats cry foul at the drop of the hat. They probably would have a good case, but will be unable to prove it. It might be enough for Obama supporters to stay home in the general election. If they stay home in the general election, then the Republican nominee would have an excellent shot at pulling this one out. Either Democrat would be terrible and much worse than John McCain. No matter how bad I think that John McCain is; Mrs. Clinton and Barack Obama are a lot worse.
My vote still hinges a lot on who John McCain selects as his running mate. If he makes an intelligent choice, he would get my vote. If he makes a stupid choice, then there is no way I could support
