Conspiracy Theory From Massachusetts

I was talking to a friend today that relayed a theory/rumor to me. I thought it was interesting….

Obama and Clinton will meet. They will discuss the best way for her to get her supporters to support him. Obama will then publicly offer the Vice Presidency to Clinton. She will say NO….. Thus making her supporters like him more. Then he will offer it to Bill Richardson.

This is a very interesting conspiracy theory. It would certainly unify the party. I would campaign all day for them! But would it be a winning ticket? I am not sure………

A strong America cannot neglect the aspirations of its citizens—the welfare of the needy, the health care of the elderly, the education of the young. For we are not developing the nations wealth for its own sake. Wealth is the means—and the people are the ends.

John McCain's Health

McCain’s presidential campaign will be releasing the Senator’s health records to reporters. The circumstances behind this release are very suspicious! Why you might ask……. I will tell you why!

1. They will be releasing the documents to select members of the media on Memorial Day weekend! One of the slowest news cycles of the year. Perhaps he is trying to be honest while the public is not looking!

2. The campaign is not releasing the documents to the public, only to select members of the media.

3. They have rules for what the media can do with the documents. The campaign will release the documents in a room with no windows and dim light. They will not allow any computers, cell phones, or any electronic device and under no circumstances will there be any talking between reporters. The only thing they can have is a #2 pencil and a pad of paper. They will have three hours to write down as much as they can of the over 300 page document.

Seriously, is this necessary to hide the fact that he is 71? Oh wait. You can’t! I actually think they are hiding the fact that he can’t get it up for that hot wife of his. He should look at the bright side. If he loses he can always do Viagra commercials!

VEEP!!!!!

Top 5 best people for the democratic VEEP! 

5. Ted Strickland. Governor of Ohio. While nobody outside of Ohio knows who he is, he would bring the state of Ohio with him. Obama needs to win Ohio now because Florida is lost and Pennsylvania is in play. Chance of happening 5%.

4. Mark Warner. Former Governor of Virginia. He would bring a little bit of experience in governing to the table not to mention he was the governor of a red state! Alas, he will not be the choice because he is running for the Senate and will win. - .5%

3. Al Gore. Former Vice President and former winner of the Presidency. He has been there done that and would whine all day about global warming. - .5%

2. Hillary Clinton. Senator from New York. She would unite the party. She would also try to run the White House if they won and possibly pull off the first coup in American History. 30.5%

1. General Wesley Clark. Just look at his former job title. Supreme Allied Commander of Europe!!!! He is also a southern white guy that is a Clintonite. He would unite the party and would forever take away the notion that Democrats are girly men. I want to see John McCain or any republican call him a coward. I triple dog dare you!!!!! If Hillary says no, this better be Obama’s choice!!! 30% 

Top 5 worst people for the democratic VEEP!

Not because I don’t like the people, but because they either don’t bring anything to the table or they would hurt us. 

5. Chris Dodd. Senator from Connecticut. Haven’t we learned our lesson on nominating anyone from New England! He brings tons of experience but no one has ever heard of him and he is from New England. Chance of happening 1%.

4. Joe Biden. Senator from Delaware. I love this guy! He speaks the truth and has a ton of experience in something Obama lacks completely. Foreign Policy. The reason why he is on the worst picks list is because he would undoubtedly say stupid things and Obama already makes freshman mistakes, we don’t need both of them doing that! – 1%

3. Michael Bloomberg. Mayor of New York City. He might bring a lot of elitist and independents with him, but isn’t that what Obama is already doing? I guess if Obama’s fund raising dried up, the billionaire could finance the whole thing! – 1%

2. John Edwards. Professional Politician. What does this man bring to the table? He has already been the VP Nominee once and brought nothing to the table. Oh, except a speech when John Kerry lost and didn’t want to concede. Can’t win his home state and won’t bring anything useful to the ticket. Unfortunately the chances of this happening are 15.5%.

1. Bill Richardson. Former Energy Secretary, Former UN Ambassador, Former United States Congressman, and Current Governor of New Mexico. This is the man that should have been our nominee, yet he is the worst debater ever. When asked what the #1 problem in America is, he responded Education. Talk about a subject no one likes to talk about. I happen to agree that education is in fact more important than the war and more important than healthcare. Why you might ask? Because if we teach people how to not be morons we wont go to war in places we cant win and we can teach people how not to eat McDonalds everyday and get diabetes. Anyway, I get off topic. There is actually only one reason he should not be on the ticket and that is because I don’t think many white people will vote for two minorities. Maybe be one, but not two. – 15%

Should Clinton drop out?

That is a very hard question to answer……. At this point I think she knows she cannot win. Yet, she might see something promising if she stays in the race. She might be able to make a stand on Universal Healthcare and get the party to make it part of the platform. Rumors were circulating Sunday that high party officials were going to meet with Clinton before the West Virginia primary to ask her to drop out with class after she wins the primary. Is there any truth to this? Who knows! But if I were her I would force the party and Obama to make Universal Healthcare the #1 priority and then drop out screaming Yes We Can!I have some advice for the Obamacrats out there that now hate the Clintons——-When the republicans come after Obama, don’t cry and don’t whine that things aren’t fair! You must fight back. Obama must learn to fight back and stop being a pussy…….

The Weekend from HELL!!!!

So, this past weekend I went to Fulton, MO for Alumni Weekend at Westminster College. Little did I know that my car would break down twice. Once on the way up and once on the way home. My car has lost all trust with me. I must replace the car in the next year. Any suggestions?

Twenty Point Lead

Hillary has taken a 20% point lead in Pennsylvania according to the American Research Group. I guess Obama should have taken a shot of Crown Royal and not called everybody that goes to church a bitter assbag.As for Hillary; did you see how much of that shot she actually drank!?!? Only a sip or two! I think she needs to man up and shoot it all next time. If I lived in Pennsylvania, I wouldn’t know who to vote for. The elitist that call me an idiot or the woman that wasted 3/4 of a shot of my favorite beverage! Tough call……
