Bill Clinton says Barack Obama should offer the VP slot to Hillary because “she has earned it.” Most believe a Black-Woman ticket could be unstoppable while others worry it would defacto mean competing administrations, and could lead to An unprecedented split White House TICKET in the 2012 election, and almost certainly a Hillary run in 2016. Last week Hillary bizarrely invoked the 1968 assassination of Sen. Robert F. Kennedy in explaining her decision to remain in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination, comments that drew criticism from aides to Sen. Barack Obama and cooled speculation that the two may form an unholy alliance. At the same time Bill Clinton is shilling for his daughter Chelsea’s run for public office – this bunch defines megalomaniacal.

   Good riddance to both the Clinton and Bush clans. But WHY does every blog I have seen so far, left or right or in between act as if this is the first time Hillary has said the same thing?

   According to outraged Keith Olberman of MSNBC, in one of his worst fake outrage performances, Hillary has said the same thing before.

   He showed the quotes and their dates yesterday.

   It’s an outrage I say.

   Don’t forget your good riddance to the Daley, Kennedy bunches too.

   Thank goodness there will always be a Kennedy in politics or we could descend into a permanent Republican darkness. About Daley, any knowledgeable person knows America can not afford to let a city as large as Chicago, “the city that works,” stop working. Wink, wink. And “Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot” is still a very well written and popular book.

   The corruption in Chicago is as blatant as the compromised integrity of NBC’s supposed news operation which is not supposed to spread opinion in the guise of reporting the news. NBC has been given it’s public broadcast spectrum and is wrongly using it to support and feed into the the liberal bias of another private cable channel.

   Sorry, Richard, but I disagree on Kennedy. Ted Kennedy has been a voice for those who have not much of a voice at all, and I know because I have three disabled people at home and have been homeless myself. Ted Kennedy was a great help to my family. He is a voice for the minorities in America, he is a staunch supporter of civil rights and should he not win his battle with cancer, he will be missed by all of us.

   Deb Della Pianas last blog post..Vote McCain in 2008 (if you think George W. Bush deserves a third term)
