Bait and switch?

Question

I've noticed that Hillary's campaign has started to show some considerable weaknesses, and I'm wondering if we're witnessing a classic bait and switch by the DNC. Now, they know that Hillary would get crushed if she ran. Against anybody. She is quite simply too polarizing and has too many skeletons in her closet. NOTHING fires up the republican base like the thought of that harpy in the white house again! But suppose she lost the primary? Suppose a slightly more moderate candidate won? Do you think the freight train of republican loathing would keep up the steam? I sure don't. Obama might have horrified republicans if he ran alone, but put him next to Clinton and he's suddenly downright DESIRABLE! Run Clinton early, get the republicans all riled up, then pull the carpet out. Suddenly they're just not near as fired up, and the dem candidate can coast to an easy victory. Does anybody else think this might be the reason Hillary is suddenly stepping on her d!ck every day?

Answer 1

That's an interesting theory, but I think Hillary is in it to win. The media likes to build a candidate up, and then slap them down, (like they did with Howard Dean), and I think that's why they are now focusing on every little misstep that Hillary makes.

Answer 2

That sounds reasonable. Because most of us (Republicans) truthfully have no idea why in the world Hillary is even trying.

Answer 3

Hopefully, everyone will remember Obama's apparent and flagrant anti-American posture at the Harkin steak fry in Indianola.
Obama is just as dangerous to our republic as Hillary, possibly more so since he is not as shrill as she is.
Good points you make here.

Answer 4

That's right - ALL the candidates are just ringers to fool the opposing party. The millions being poured into their campaigns is just mad-money they party didn't need.
Yup.
