5Rm has made no secret of supporting Sen. Obama in his campaign the lead this country. However until now we have also practiced some restraint in completely bashing the other democratic nominee …UNTIL NOW.
Hillary Clinton out of her FUCKING mind.
Sen. Clinton essentially thought she would step into the primary and cinch the nomination, essentially riding the coat tails of her husband Bill Clinton. Bill Clinton until recently was, in my opinion one of the greatest leaders of modern history. But whether blinded by his loyalty to wife or completely obsessed with winning the white house (or as many of my colleagues and I speculate- being blackmailed to support Hillary) Bill has also lost his FUCKING mind.
I am a New Yorker and I honestly cannot recall ever hearing Sen. Clinton initiate any bills or legislation the would impact New York. On the other hand I have met Sen. Chuck Schumer several times. Sen. Schumer has been at the forefront of issues that are important to New Yorkers. Sen. Clinton was simply here as part of her career ladder to the white house.
First off- to any Hillary Clinton supporter out there when asked why you support Sen. Clinton? if the first words out of your mouth are “Well Bill was a great president so I'm voting for Hillary” you are a FUCKING STUPID piece of SHIT. Seriously get a clue. Hillary is not Bill.
Bill at his prime was a LEADER of the people. Hillary at her best is a good politician. She is no where near as charismatic, affluent, persuasive or endearing as Bill. An Hillary Clinton presidency will look VERY different from Bill's.
Second- Sen. Obama is essentially running Bill Clinton's campaign from 1992 & 1996- appealing to the people to not only demand better from their government but from themselves as well. A campaign of hope. Which is why Hillary Clinton was has changed her message a half dozen times, and in many cases even adopting REPUBLICAN positions and tactics. Relying on the blind loyalty of stubborn, ignorant people who for whatever reason feel they owe a debt to the Clinton's.
Third- most appalling people I have spoken to regarding Sen. Obama have cited his race as being an issue. Please realize that the individuals I was speaking to were in many cases darker than Obama. I would have thought that at least they would have given the Illinois Senator a chance and listened to his views. But ironically they were more opposed to him than the light skinned, white people I spoke to. (Some special kind of self esteem, sabotaging influences there)
Finally- as I mentioned we are doing this now because enough is enough. Hillary you had a chance to fight a clean fight and elevate your own legacy to new heights, enhance women's rights and bolster the reputation of the Clinton name. All you have down is shown yourself for who you really are. The Rev Wright issue, the Muslim issue, the 3AM ads, questioning Sen. Obama's patriotism. Did you hire Karl Rove to work for you? Sen. Obama has until very recently taken the high road, and even now is still not slinging all the mud he could. The list of scandals involving the Clinton's goes back a long way. Check all of them out here. (please note this is not counting the Lewinsky Scandal- that was a personal matter)
The reason for the Clinton's schizophrenic behavior is simply- they dismissed Sen. Obama. They never thought that the new kid would do so good. However Bill should have known better. Bill was Barack in 1992. Must be hard for Bill to essentially battle a younger, better version of himself.
To be clear- I have said many times before that Hillary Clinton was a great politician, however what this country needs now is a great leader and I didn't feel Hillary was there yet. Now I am convinced she will never be that leader. I am not against a women being president. I am against another nut being in office. 2012 might the year when 2 women will be running for the top office- Governor Sebelius of Kansas and the other Illinois Senator, Sen. McCaskill would be excellent choices. These two potential candidates are the ones to watch. (I'm MENTOK Dammit)
This game is Chess, not checkers. Sen. Obama has tactfully played this game out to a T. All that Hillary Clinton is doing is demonstrating her skills to divide, repress, manipulate and flat out LIE.
I will leave you with this clip of Bill Clinton endorsing Sen. Obama-
