The Democrats Bail on Hillary - Why?

Did you wonder how a Democrat decides who to support in an election? What criteria would they use? Moral standing in the community? Voting record? Ethics in congressional bipartisanship? Are you with me yet - well, when you stop laughing and get up off the floor, let's take a look at some of the Democrats that are in the news and then you decide.

The news is mostly about the leading big wigs, the Clinton hacks especially, of the Democrat Party that are taking a hike on Hillary, and with good reason, she is not fit to govern. Like Dick Cheney said last week in an interview, Hillary can't be president because she is a Democrat.


Is it possible that the Democrat party leaders, in their heart of hearts, believe the same thing, she is just too much Democrat for the general public to swallow. Is that why they are falling over themselves every time Obama comes on the scene? He doesn't have the 'mark of cane' on him like Hillary does -

But don't be fooled about who Obama actually is. In reality, Obama is pretty much cut from the same cloth as Hillary, he just doesn't have the baggage that Hillary does. The Democrat party believes they can fool the public into thinking he is 'the next coming' for America.


With not too much trouble digging into his back ground, it becomes clear he is just as left of center as any other main stream Democrat candidate, if not further so, as he voted with the Democrat party agenda every time in his vast history in the senate, all two years of it.

In any event, the Democrats don't have a gauge to use when deciding on who will be their leader except who will be able to fool the public the best. It's clear, for now, it isn't Hillary

Clintonistas Abandoning Hillary
A number of Clinton administration officials have shunned Sen. Hillary Clinton’s campaign for the presidency and are instead working with her rivals for the Democratic nomination in 2008.

Among the highest-ranking defectors, former Commerce Secretary William Daley is backing Sen. Barack Obama; top Clinton political aide Douglas Sosnik is advising Sen. Christopher Dodd; and Al Gore’s former Chief of Staff Ronald Klain is in the camp of Sen. Joe Biden, The New York Sun reports.
Former White House counsel Abner Mikva is also backing Obama.

“I knew Obama before I went to the White House,” Mikva told the Sun. “I have a high regard for Hillary. I think Barack will be a better candidate and has a better chance of winning.”

Other former Clinton administration officials in the Obama camp include Michael Froman, a former Treasury Department official; White House congressional liaison Broderick Johnson; former Treasury aide Karen Kornbluh; ex-White House health policy aide Devorah Adler; Anthony Lake, who was a national security adviser to President Clinton; and Susan Rice, a former White House adviser on Africa policy.

Ex-Clinton administration figures who are working for John Edwards’ presidential campaign include Clinton speechwriter Jonathan Prince, White House spokeswoman Jennifer Palmieri, and National Security Council staffer Miles Lackey.

Former Iowa Gov. Tom Vilsack also has some former Clinton talent on his staff.
Hillary spokesman Howard Wolfson downplayed the loss of former Clinton loyalists, telling the Sun: “We are very pleased with the overwhelming support and encouragement Sen. Clinton has gotten from administration alums.”

Asked about the defectors, Wolfson said: “All good folks and we wish them well.”
