Is Hillary Going For The Kill At The Denver Convention? Alan Hart – Information Clearing House August 22, 2008 According to conventional wisdom Barak Obama agreed, for the sake of party unity, that Hillary Clinton should be “put into nomination” at the Denver Convention, on the understanding that when nominated, and before the first roll call, she would release her delegates to him and urge them to vote for him. That, apparently, is how it’s supposed to happen next Tuesday evening. But is that the way it will happen? The key to understanding what could actually happen is in the fact that Hillary did not withdraw from the race. She announced only that she was “suspending” her campaign. At the time one or two (perhaps more) of the most thoughtful American commentators wondered aloud why she had refrained from saying that she was withdrawing from the race. The point made, quite properly and fairly, was that the word “suspension” carries the connotation that the hiatus is temporary. “Suspended” players in sports, for example, return to play after their period of suspension. In Hillary’s case one possible implication was that she was hoping that something would turn up between June and the convention in Denver to allow her to resume the fight on the floor there. The something that has turned up, thanks mainly to Obama’s apparent inability to develop his early promise and come on strong, is that Senator McCain is ahead in the polls. One could say there are many reasons why that ought not to have happened but it has happened. The day after the release of the poll findings indicating that McCain was five points ahead, I received telephone calls from an extremely well informed American friend telling me that Hillary was in the process of putting the finishing touches to her strategy to take Obama out at the convention. The friend named the four key people who were preparing the ground for the putsch, including the lady who is acting as Hillary’s eminence grise. (The latter is a very powerful lady with loads of money). If my friend’s information is correct, the following is the scenario that will be played out next Tuesday evening, prime time. When she is nominated, Hillary will not realease her delegates to Obama and will say words to the effect that circumstances have changed, and it’s now clear that only she can guarantee to win the White House for the party. Whether or not she herself would go as far as challenging Obama to release his delegates to her is not something my friend was prepared to speculate about. He said he thought that aspect of the matter had not yet been determined. He also said it was more than reasonable to assume that enough delegates would be prepared to dump Barak and give Hilary victory on the convention floor if they were persuaded that he was, or was most likely to be, a loser. My American friend’s information may or may not reflect the reality of what Hillary is up to in the final countdown to the convention. I have no way of knowing from my side of the pond (I live in the UK). But I am still intrigued by her refusal in June to say that she was withdrawing from the race. And I note what was said to me when I ran my friend’s Denver scenario past a former American congressman who knows better than most how the game, dirty tricks and all, is played. He said: “It’s a remote possibility but not impossible. The Clintons don’t take prisoners and play for keeps.”. We'll soon know. Before I decided to write this piece, I watched a short YouTube video of Hillary in conversation with some of her most zealous supporters. All women. It starts with one of them asking her if she would consider having her name put into nomination at the convention. She replies: “That’s an obvious question and we are working on it….” The clip ends with another lady saying that she was a delegate and was aware that some of those who had been committed to Obama had signed a statement to indicate that they would switch to Hillary if she was put into nomination at the convention. I had the quite strong impression that this last speaker in the clip was a plant - to convey a message for Hillary that she herself did not want to speak. www.informationclearinghouse.info/article20596.htm

I'll say this much: If Hillary does try a stunt like this at the convention, it will be the last major push she ever does for the presidential nomination. If it doesn't work, she'll be tarred for life by it, and won't have a chance of getting nominated ever again for any office higher than mayor of Little Rock.

Obummer did not receive unlimited funding from the system to be cut out at the last moment by anyone.

Boy, I can't make heads or tails of what's going on. This show has more twisty-turnies than anything Alfred Hitchcock or Rod Serling ever did. It will be interesting to see what the nice jooish judge has to say about Oboingo's eligibility under the Constimatooshun. AIPAC and the talmud have an answer for everything. I guess I'll just have to tune in to next week's exciting episode to see what I think about this. Yes, Virginia, the Constitution IS just a Goddamned piece of paper.

I believe it is one of the Rothschild's (a woman who married one of them anyway--read an article which said she was wealthy in her own right and was before she married him). Lady Lynn de Rothschild throws her support behind Hillary Who is this supporter? --- "...Barclays Bank, Hollinger (Owned by Canadian Privy Councilor Conrad Black; Evelyn de Rothschild sat on the same board, as did Kissinger and many other very important globalists." --- "...Zionists Henry Kissinger (Fritz Kraemer and Rockefeller protege; friend of Jacob and Evelyn de Rothschild..." --- "Sir Evelyn and Lady (Lynn) de Rothschild who have a house this summer at Edgartown. The ebullient American, Lynn, was at dinner in a gauzy little nothing, sporting an enormous ring. Vogue's Billy Norwich gazed at it and asked if the bauble came from JAR (Joel Rosenthal's multi-coveted international gems shop). Lynn laughed and showed that the ring was just a bunch of colorful beads held together on an elastic string. "I paid only a few dollars for it in a local dress shop." Billy pressed, "Well, do you have any good jewelry, Lady de Rothschild?" She laughed. "Lord de Rothschild, does your wife have any good jewelry?" Evelyn just smiled and sat back in his chair. He seems very proud of his Yankee girl and he is getting used to the way Americans tease him... Lynn was deeply involved in the recent Live 8 event and was even instrumental in getting U.S. television to carry the show after they dragged their feet, worrying that the event might become politicized. She spoke with Karl Rove several times seeking and getting White House help." --- http://www.wakeupfromyourslumber.com/node/535
