The Fix is in - Obama is the one selected this time... |
|
Last time it was Slick Willie/Gore then Gore...
The corporate capitalist masters of the media have decided that it's going to be Obama or McCain. Listen to the message between the lines.
If the Dems are stupid enough to nominate hillary, it will be McCain...
If the Dems pick Obama, it will be Obama...
Either way -- We lose.
The corporate capitalist masters win...
Although, with Obama, there might be some unintended consequences.
A critical mass of the sheeple might actually believe his rhetoric and decide to demand Progressive action from an Obama Administration... Then he'd be in deep shit between the rock of the public will and the hard place of the corporate capitalist evil that can deprive him of a 2nd term...
But, it's up to the sheeple to WAKE THE FUCK UP and realize that it's the corporate masters who are fucking them over...

1. I agree with your premise, but I am not giving up hope. |
|
Hillary can still win the nomination and the GE - and she is far more progressive than she gets credit for.

3. The media was absolutely dumbfounded when Hillary pulled off NH. |
|
It wasn't supposed to happen that way, the election had been as much as delivered to Obama, complete with exit polling.
It didn't take too long for them to dust themselves off & get going again in time for South Carolina.

5. That's life in the Matrix. |
|
It's all an illusion. Whatever keeps us happy in the illusion, so that we don't wake up and revolt.

6. That's funny, I remember the media telling me Hillary was our nominee for month |
|
after month. And then people started voting and the coronation didn't quite go according to plan. We must watch different TV stations, because all I heard was "who will the Repubs run against Hillary?"
