. I want a win in November and I want health care - Obama will deliver neither!
I think republicans are salivating at the prospect of Obama over Clinton, but are holding their cards close to the vest. Bashing Hillary serves two purposes: weakening her and diverting attention from the issue of Barak???s lack of experience and gravitas that McCain will exploit. I laugh at republicans on TV saying they will be energized against Hillary, as if we have not seen over a year apathy and dejection over the prospect. I visualize McCain holding his breath, fearing people will catch on that Obama is his best hope of winning. But, of course now is not the optimal time to reveal just how Barak will be diminished and made to look less than presidential. McCain would love democrats to get rid of the strongest candidate! Without Clinton universal health care as an issue will be minimal, she trounces McCain on economic issues and Hillary will not be tagged as weak and naive on international affairs and terrorism.
If health care is not mandated the legislation will fail. Republicans will argue a cost cutting alternative knowing partisan politics and compromise will gut any plan once the principle of universality is relinquished. They might just ignore the issue. Clinton is the only one who can drive it through.
Who is going to be swayed across party lines if UHC looks DOA, Obama is challenged on the economy and McCain takes the commander in chief mantle. Sen. Clinton is ready to lead, no one can doubt that. We could have had Al Gore if competency was not under-valued, let???s not make that mistake again.
