Beat the Drum

Last week I posted a "what if" post concerning Hillary and the lead up to the 2012 Democratic nominating process. Have the war drums already started in the West Wing?

Hillary or Barry?

Tony Blankley is among the first to seriously discuss the possibility of Hillary in 2012. I agree it's a strong possibility. Here's how it might go down:

A few “Clinton insiders” like Ickes, Stephanopolis, Daschle, etc. begin asking questions about Obie’s ability to lead the party and start actively praising Hillary’s statesmanship as Sec State.

Bill begins to beat the drum about the off year 2010 election bloodbath, acting once again as Hillary’s surrogate attack dog, a role he relishes and excels at. Expect him to make fun of Barry’s stiff, wooden, teleprompterizin’ speeches...stuff like that...more of the veiled racism accusations too

Increasingly frequent negative Obama stories begin to circulate in the media…bad military morale, excessive indecision in the face of adversity, no mandate after the 2010 elections, out of control spending, taxes, economy, etc. etc.

An “October Surprise” gets leaked about Obie linking him to an unsavory story/event/individual.

Clintinites surface on the Sunday shows and daytime TV, bestowing praise on Hillary's leadership ability, her lack of involvement with Obama's domestic failures, and her “centrist” approach to solving the country’s problems

Stories begin to leak about “substantive policy differences” among the Cabinet, notably between Hillary and POTUS.

Several key Obama lemmings publicly defect: perhaps Emanuel, Ariana Huffington, Oprah, Olbermann, Caroline Kennedy, etc.

Hillary remains above fray, allowing her minions to knock the legs out from under the Administration

Hillary rides into the primaries publicly stating she's not running, supports her boss, and won’t accept the nomination unless it’s an overwhelming majority who want her to run, leaving the door open for her nomination.

A third candidate, about three shades left of Obama, emerges to spoil the Primaries…think a young version of Kucinich or a Jon Stewart or Al Franken….someone who can’t win but pulls the MTV/Rachel Maddow vote from Obama.

Hillary skips the early primaries, perhaps even half-heartedly campaigning for her boss while damning him with faint praise.

"Relenting,"Clinton enters the later primaries due to “overwhelming encouragement” from the Party, throwing the Obama machine into a defensive, un-Presidential flap.

At the DNC convention, early primary state delegates defect in droves based upon Hillary’s strengthening performance in the later contests.

Hillary wins the nomination in a runaway

Watch for it. All of this will quietly begin prior to the 2010 elections, probably in late Spring/early Summer, escalate in tenor and volume through 2011, and by early 2012 she’ll be actively “not” campaigning for the job.

Tear Down This Wall

This is statesmanship. This is history worth celebrating.
