The Schweiker Solution ?

Lets use our crystal ball and lets see a solution to the Democratic Mess. In this we have the great book, Reagan's Revolution, The Untold Story of the Campaign that started it all, by Craig Shirley. Clinton is behind in the delegate count, Obama is ahead by over a hundred and thirty delegates at last count, so what does Clinton do, so far the seems to be going for debates, Obama by the last measure should say no to further debates. Thus we have an another solution for Team Clinton, select a VP running mate now, as the Reagan team did, select a Obama Super Delegate, if he was African - American it would be better, some military of foreign policy experience, to the left of her on some issues, thus give her cover with liberals but centre on Foreign Policy and the Military. The Question why do this, lets give it as a given that both candidates come out of the next rounds of elections about even, Obama ahead by about a hundred and thirty and at the popular vote level a few hundred thousand. Clinton has argued that Florida and Michigan should be counted in the vote count, in Michigan Obama was not on the voters list, and in Florida he did not Campaign. Thus this arguments is rubbish to be honest, it called stealing elections in my book.


Thus Hillary Clinton has to get in front of this lead, make Obama select his running mate, he will have to choose someone to his right, not easy and the Party will find it hard to take, but he needs to do that, cant have to two liberals on the ticket, sure fire lose voter. The Clinton Machine has to get the Super Delegates to see that Reagan Democrats will only vote for her, and that Obama has became the African - American Candidate, and it sad to say the USA is not ready for its first black President, a post racial black President yes, but Obama's pastor and his own mistakes has made him the a Liberal African - American Candidate for President not a candidate who happens to be black, harsh but true. Thus the time for the Schweiker solution.
