Is Hillary now on the GOP payroll?
She is saying that she is in this until August. That would be OK if she did this the Huckabee style of just debating issues. But, we now see her plan clearer then ever is to make Obama unelectable leaving the convention just a couple of months before the gen election.
That gives Obama a couple of months to raise gen election funds and to put back together a deteriorated dem party. She has less then a 10% chance of winning which her own campaign has acknowledged.

So why would she lie about Obama, distort his words and try to create a view of Obama that is false? There is no other logical reason then she is trying to make Obama unelectable in Nov.
Does she really think she can win by forcing her self into the nomination in a very ugly way? Does she really think Obama supporters will appreciate what she has done to Obama?

What is her reasoning? It must be either she is a sore loser that is wanting Obama to lose also since she has already lost or she is now on the GOP payroll. Which is it?

1. You don't get $109 million from "co-writing" a book
Or from hunting.

4. I'm sure the GOP will contribute to her campaign, Rush will tell 'em to
question is, does she still think the unamerican, elitist Obama would make a good VP?

5. Clintons have been on that payroll since Jackson Stephens put them on it in early 80s.
More of us are just waking up to that fact, though we should have run them out of town in the 90s when we first noticed BushInc was being completely let off the hook and all Poppy and his cronies' criminal operations were protected from further scrutiny.

6. releasing the Clinton library donors might clear this up

Her new pal Richard Scaife is disturbing a development. Maybe this is just the Clinton triangulation strategy at work.

Most likely it's just Hillary and McCain's mutual interest in taking out Obama.

7. Just a guess
Hillary knows that she has lost. Now it is her mission to destroy Obama, and get McNuts elected. She knows McNuts will do such an awful job that he will serve one term ,and she will be ready to go in 2012. She can not afford to have Obama get in and be a two term President She knows that it's going to be 2012 or NEVER!!!!! Also, I have no idea if she is working for the G.O.P but I will say that the services that she is providing to the G.O.P are priceless....

13. I think yours is the most likely explanation.
That's why the Clintons derailed Kerry in 2004, so she'd have her shot in 2008.

15. You gotta be kidding.
Do you not remember Bill Clinton campaigning for Kerry after getting out of the hospital? He had freaking bypass surgery and still he was out on the trail.
