			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The two remaining Republican presidential candidates, Mike Huckabee and John McCain, and the two remaining Democrat presidential candidates, Barack Obama and  Hillary Clinton,  at this stage of the nominating process can be viewed as allegorical card games.  Huckabee and McCain are playing Old Maid. Clinton and Obama are playing a malodorously public game of strip poker.</p>
<p><span id="more-116"></span></p>
<p>There are many organized and individual strategies manifesting themselves  on the eve of the Ohio and Texas primaries. The two primaries that could very well decide the  end of Clinton&#8217;s presidential campaign. In the Texas primary, a registered Republican voter can vote in the Democrat primary and in Ohio a Republican voter can do the same if  that is how they voted in the last primary, but this is a historically loosely enforced rule.</p>
<p>The emerging strategy of Republicans and conservatives is to cast a vote for Clinton in the primaries in hopes of keeping her campaign a viable ongoing concern. There are several compelling reasons for this methodology.</p>
<p>If Clinton can win either Ohio or Texas, or both, it will extend her campaign and give her hope of building momentum for the later primaries which could possibly propel her into the Democrat convention. It is at the convention that the playing ground becomes equal again and thus bolsters her chances of capturing the nomination. The Republican strategist believes this is a winning situation for their party because, with statistical and polling confirmation,  she is the most beatable candidate in the general election.</p>
<p>If Clinton and Obama both make it to the convention, and if they are very close in delegate count,  the Super Delegates come into play as the deciding factor. If it does come down to the convention to decide the nominee, it will most likely have a splitting effect on the party and if the candidate is selected by the Super Delegate vote, it will most assuredly split the party. The Democrat party will try to avoid this at all costs and will push aggressively for a brokered candidate deal before the convention. The Republicans prefer this outcome because of its capability to split the Democrat party if the Super Delegates are the deciding factor.</p>
<p>The Republican Party  will benefit bountifully if the Democrat nominating process can be as scandalously protracted as long as possible. As the Republican candidates are playing a benign game of political Old Maid, the Democrats are playing a nasty game of political strip poker. Every negative word, comment or accusation is highlighted in the media. And every word, comment, accusation, and quote in the media by either candidate about the other rips another parcel of fabric from their opponent to expose another piece of unsavory flesh that the candidate would rather the masses not be witness to.</p>
<p>By the time the Ohio and Texas primaries are completed and if Clinton is still in the game, both candidates will be reduced to their under garments and shoes. If a deal is not brokered and they both make it to the convention, by the time they get to the convention, they will be standing stark naked for the world to see every conceivable flaw, blemish, shortcoming, lack of ethos that they have exposed about each other. All this while the Republican candidate will be fully clothed, relaxed and prepared with their play book for the general election written all over the naked body of their opponent before the truly ugly process heads into the final stretch.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Clinton Campaign announced today they plan on filing a lawsuit against  Barack Obama and his campaign. They will also be seeking an injunction early Monday morning to prevent him from following through with his scheduled interviews the day before the Michigan primary.</p>
<p>The Clinton campaign became suspicious immediately following Hillary&#8217;s unexpected win in New Hampshire. The Clinton Machine was made aware that Obama hired a couple of heavy hitting consultants for his campaign staff.</p>
<p><span id="more-107"></span></p>
<p>The first hired gun was former Louisiana Governor Kathleen Blanco, who, during a news conference after Hurricane Katrina, broke down and began crying and wringing her hands on national television.</p>
<p>The second hired gun was <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHmvkRoEowc">Cris Crocker</a>. Crocker became internationally famous for his YouTube video titled &#8220;Leave Britney Alone.&#8221; He set the standard on how a &#8220;man&#8221; should cry in front of the camera.</p>
<p>&#8220;It became glaringly obvious with the Obama campaign&#8217;s hiring of these two professional criers where this was going,&#8221; said a Clinton insider. &#8220;We knew they were going to try and pilfer intellectual property, trade secrets and various other things that are proprietary to Hillary Clinton.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Clinton insider went on to elaborate, &#8220;Obama has 5 televised interviews scheduled, with 4 of them being orchestrated crying sessions. We know this for a fact.  These interviews are purposely scheduled to run concurrent with Clinton&#8217;s 2 scheduled crying interviews,  1 laughing interview, and one get tough interview.&#8221;</p>
<p>Bill Clinton, while being interviewed by Hillary disciple Chris Matthews, said he was furious at not only the replication of his wife&#8217;s Plan B strategy after losing the Iowa Caucus but by the timing of the weeping sessions. He also added, &#8220;We have been backed into a corner and have no option but to take unprecedented legal action. They are essentially stealing from us.&#8221;</p>
<p>Clinton articulated the infractions against his wife, &#8221; The Obama campaign is systematically committing copyright infringement, theft of trade secrets, and theft of intellectual and proprietary property. And by wantonly scheduling his interviews at the same time as Hillary&#8217;s is nothing short of tortuous interference.&#8221;  Clinton went on to state,&#8221;I am so livid about these egregious acts, that if my law license hadn&#8217;t been revoked, I would sue him myself.&#8221;</p>
<p>When asked for comment, a spokesperson for Obama stated &#8220;We have it on good authority that this may have been the first time Clinton has ever cried. We are 100% sure it was staged and are prepared to prove it. We just took a page from the Clinton play book.  She may have interviewed Obama&#8217;s kindergarten teacher to learn that he wanted to be president at the age of 5, and used it against him, but we spoke with Dr. Benjiman Chapman. Dr. Chapman was the physician who delivered Hillary. He stated that as soon as she was born, he delivered  a slap on the bottom, being less than a minute old, she shot him an icy glare rather than cry.&#8221;</p>
<p>When informed of the Obama rebuttal  and their evidence about Hillary&#8217;s using crying as a last ditch effort to stay in the running, Bill Clinton said, &#8220;That is a lie and if anyone knows a lie it is me. That is why these things have to be stopped before they get out of control. The next thing you know, Obama will try to allege he is blacker than we are.&#8221;</p>
