Falling for Clinton
March 14, 2008Geraldine Ferraro just fallen for a cause, smearing Mr. Obama on her way down. It is a supreme act done for a friend to pull her friend, Ms. Clinton out of the dodo that she is in.
The act went like this.
Mrs. Ferraro basically said, Mr. Obama was able to succeed to the point that he has because he was black, male, and lucky. Gender, luck, and race are the driving factors of Mr. Obamas’s success, Mrs Ferraro quipped.
It is well known that playing the race game is fatal for Mr. Obama. Mrs. Ferraro played it for her friend Mrs. Clinton for their intended audiances’ pleasure, later vote. Mrs. Clinton let the game run for a couple of days, and then “apologized” for it. Can you say, ’swift boat’…
Peggy Noonansaid it best this morning on ’Morning Joe’, MSNBC morning show, as being ‘race baiting’; a game the Clintons played from South Carolina primary to Ferraro. More to come, may be.
Is Mrs. Clinton’s attitude of - I will have to drive the car OR will help push it off the cliff good for Democrats? Doubt it.
I was 100% supporter, admirer and lover of the Clintons. Was I duped or what!

Obama-Clinton, Clinton-Obama – either dream team is McCain’s worst nightmare. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama can easily make that nightmare a reality for him now. Here’s how:
Both publicly pledge that if are nominated for President, the other candidate will be their first choice for the Vice Presidential spot.
This immediately puts a stop to attacks on the other, or calling their ability into question. They can still debate the issues and clarify their differences, but the main focus of their anger and outrage can now be directed at the Bush-McCain policies of the past 8 years.
The enthusiastic support of the other is exactly what each candidate will need in the fall to win. Each appeals to the voters the other has the hardest time attracting. If they combine their strengths – “hope” and “work” - they both will almost certainly be in a position to lead America out of the mess we are in.
