And then there were two – NOT!

So Clinton finally bowed out of the presidential race and threw her support behind Obama. If you thought that meant we’d seen the last of her for this election you’re wrong. Within minutes of her concession speech there were posts to her web site that said now that she’s out of the race they would vote for McCain.

Lies.

Since Clinton didn’t get the nod they’re going to try and push Obama to pick her up as his running mate. How will they accomplish this? It’s simple: play into the hysteria that everyone who wanted Clinton for president will now vote for McCain, so the only way to prevent this massive loss of votes for the Dems is to keep her on the ticket!

If there’s one thing I’ve learned about politics in America, it’s that the two parties hate each other, and you can’t convince me that a Democrat would vote for a Republican simply because their candidate of choice didn’t get the nomination. No way, no how.

I believe the talk you’re going to hear over the next few weeks about Clinton supporters voting for McCain is just a ploy to scare the Dems into forcing Obama to name Clinton as his VP.

If the Dems don’t baulk and Obama names someone else, the Clinton supporters will ultimately vote for him anyway. Americans have short attention spans, and although the Clinton supporters are mad right now, they’ll lose interest in revenge when the election draws closer and they remember how much they hate Republicans.

As for a “dream-ticket” with Obama and Clinton, I don’t think Obama would go for it. Although he’ll never say it out loud, I think he understands what Hillary Clinton is and he doesn’t want any part of her in his cabinet. The only way he’ll take her is if the Dem Party forces him.

A ticket with them both would get a ton of votes, but it would ultimately hurt this country to have an unqualified Commander in Chief, and an even more unqualified VP who cares about nothing but herself.

It’s going to be a scary election.

“God, help us all. Please.”
