Michael Collins: BUSH - CLINTON 2008

Why is Hillary doing this if she can't win the nomination? What's husband Bill up to?

There are two theories that capture the imagination.

Entitlement

The first is a conventional explanation that claims Clinton knows that she's lost the nomination. By continuing to tear down Obama, Hillary helps assure a McCain victory and all that implies (the "100 years war" policy). She's then positioned to take the nomination and the White House in 2012.

This casts Hillary as totally indifferent to the struggles and suffering that a McCain presidency would bring to citizens. His sole purpose so far has been to advocate for an imperial United States occupying strategic oil depots in the Middle East in perpetuity.

When asked about the economy, he said, "The issue of economics is not something I've understood as well as I should," That's hardly the level of skill required if the chief executive is to successfully navigate the economic storms faced by 300,000,000 citizens.

If this theory is correct, Hillary Clinton would have us endure four more years of Bush policies just to serve her ego driven ambition.

Rule by Proxy

The alternate theory is that Bill Clinton and George H. W. Bush have formed some sort of political alliance or clan. In this scenario, Hillary is at the service of these two schemers, a critical functionary in their post-presidential quest for power and influence.

Is this possible? How could these two have the unmitigated ambition and skills necessary to pull off a master plan that invokes nearly every conspiracy theory over the past few decades? Where's the evidence?

There's no need for a conspiracy theory. In fact, if true, this can't be the type of shadow conspiracy associated with behind the scenes manipulation because it is all so very public.

Husband Bill was adopted, as it were, by the elder Bush given the status of his two political heirs? This combination would serve the purpose of perpetual power for the backers of both ex presidents. United, the two would be a living symbol of continuity by the "center" and an assurance to the incumbent ruling class that policies in dire need of change will stay the same.

The raw ambition theory is easier to believe. After all the time she's done, Hillary may have thought, "Screw him! It's my turn." It's the rawest form of entitlement mixed with the unrealistic persistence of an embittered loser.

If the Clinton campaign were a brute force scheme combining the Bush and Clinton political factions to preserve established wealth, why would they be this obvious?

well done, Bush Clinton Bush Clinton

Thank you for a great job painting the picture for us - this dynasty has to end, and we have to end it.  As the endorsements keep coming our way, and as Obama continues to amaze us and reach out to us, and with the 22,000 turning out to Obama's rally in PA - we should soon see some sort of exit of the Clinton machine.

Its sad to see it come to this, it just wasn't meant to be - this dynasty.  We reject and denounce it. :}

Great OpEd!

Clinton Dynasty

Given her backround, I wouldn't expect her to give up. Don't blink or you will miss the march of the "super delegates " rushing to give her the nomination. She is governed by pure ambition which will probably fail her when she meets McCain in the final. But then, four years from now she'll get elected with little opposition. I see a combination of Collin's theories winning for her then.

She is, after all, a" chicago politician" with all that that implies.

She's a "Chicago" politician!

That's good.  She's more Chicago in political style than Obama is.  I'm luke warm on him with concerns about his foreign policy advisor, Brzezinski.  But she's out of control at this point - kidney punches and round houses after the bell, so to speak. 

She must think we're all idiots with no memory, which is not the case.  Obama has his supporters, at the core, and then those who see him as a symbol, a much larger group.  Those folks won't go away.  In Virginia the primary vote doubleld from 2004, which was an active year, Wisconsin had an even greater influence.   

The ultimate test is losing Pennsylvania, which may or may not happen (given the lousy voting system).  Continuing after that would be truly strange.
