Dissed!

Hillary Gets Stiffed
by Mike Allen

There’s one Democrat who would seem to have little or no chance of being picked by Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill) to be his running mate – his former opponent,Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.).

But it’s not for the reason you think.

Obama has often said, most recently on NBC'S "Meet the Press” on July 27, that Clinton “would be on anybody’s short list.”

But apparently not his.

“She was never vetted,” a Democratic official reported. “She was not asked for a single piece of paper. She and Senator Obama have never had a single conversation about it. How would he know if she’d take it?”

The official also said Clinton never met with Obama’s vetting team of Eric Holder and Caroline Kennedy.

And the official said she was never asked for medical records or for any financial 2008 information about her or former President Bill Clinton. The last information the couple has disclosed about taxes and financial holdings was for 2007.

The Clintons also were not asked about donors to the William J. Clinton Presidential Library.

“This would be the biggest leap of faith ever,” the official said. “She’s waiting for the text message like everyone else.”

An Obama aide said "absolutely exhaustive research was done on her over the course of the 16 month primary. She was researched more closely than any candidate in history."

There will be blood.

Hillary is not going to take this lying down, baby. If the Obamafraud keeps dissing Hillary, the last thing he is going to have to worry about is a phone call at three o'clock in the morning.

The Obamafraud should have had the decency of at least letting Hillary know that she wasn't being considered and given her the reasons why. They are multiple.

Watch your back, Obamafraud!

Hillary's Brownshirts

Clinton creates 'whip team' to quell anti-Obama protests

In an unusual move, Hillary Clinton's staff is creating a 40-member "whip team" at the Denver Democratic convention to ensure that her supporters don't engage in embarrassing anti-Obama demonstrations during the floor vote on her nomination, according to people familiar with the planning.

The team, which is being organized by longtime Clinton staffer Craig Smith, is working in conjunction with Obama's floor organizers to help foster the image of a unified front during a roll-call process Clinton herself has described as an emotional
"catharsis" for her disappointed supporters.

"If people get down there on the floor and want to start blowing kazoos and making a scene we want to make sure we've got people who stand in front of them with Obama signs," said a person involved in the planning. (More)

Hillary and her minions have reached a new low. Now they are into suppressing the freedom of expression of their own supporters. I wonder if Hillary will follow through with her plan to throw her own worshippers under the bus now that it seems the Obamafraud has never even considered having her as his running mate.

Meanwhile, the Obamafraud vp choice bait-and-switch continues as a sycophantic "main stream" media drools in anticipation. The Obamafraud's vp pick has been "imminent" for a while.

I hope it's Joe Biden. It would be like Christmas and my birthday all wrapped up in one delightful package.

McCain Movin' On Up!

McCain Takes Lead Over Obama: Poll

By John Whitesides, Political Correspondent

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - In a sharp turnaround, Republican John McCain has opened a 5-point lead on Democrat Barack Obama in the U.S. presidential race and is seen as a stronger manager of the economy, according to a Reuters/Zogby poll released on Wednesday.

McCain leads Obama among likely U.S. voters by 46 percent to 41 percent, wiping out Obama's solid 7-point advantage in July and taking his first lead in the monthly Reuters/Zogby poll.

The reversal follows a month of attacks by McCain, who has questioned Obama's experience, criticized his opposition to most new offshore oil drilling and mocked his overseas trip.

The poll was taken Thursday through Saturday as Obama wrapped up a weeklong vacation in Hawaii that ceded the political spotlight to McCain, who seized on Russia's invasion of Georgia to emphasize his foreign policy views.

"There is no doubt the campaign to discredit Obama is paying off for McCain right now," pollster John Zogby said. "This is a significant ebb for Obama."

McCain now has a 9-point edge, 49 percent to 40 percent, over Obama on the critical question of who would be the best manager of the economy -- an issue nearly half of voters said was their top concern in the November 4 presidential election.

That margin reversed Obama's 4-point edge last month on the economy over McCain, an Arizona senator and former Vietnam prisoner of war who has admitted a lack of economic expertise and shows far greater interest in foreign and military policy. (More)

The Obamawuss is sounding more and more like Hillary in the last days of the liberal Democratic primary: desperate, paranoid and shrill.
