Obama and Israel Part 2 - Iran Crisis


Lets Get Real:

Lets look at how the US and Iran agreement plays in to US politics at home, the Republican contenders have been wary of the deal, while Hillary Clinton the Democratic front runner has welcomed the deal but is keeping her options open, it can be expected that any deal one way or another will find its way to Congress, it is a question of how many Democrats will keep to the Party line when it comes to Israel, if the Iran deal does not work the Dems will want the ability to show that they were not fooled as President Obama was, on the other hand the House and Senate Democrats do not want an annoyed President on their back, so they will be cautious about any deal between the US and Iran.   IF the deal works then the Republicans will have to consider how to play it in 2016, of course that depends if your trust Iran.  On the Dem side the Clinton Camp will be supportive up to a point, if its a choice between a being loyal to Obama or getting Hillary Clinton elected, its the Clintons what you expect.
