Does Hillary want to see Obama Lose ?

splat

Nam I am
So she can Run again in 2012 ?

I find it quite Odd that she is starting her fundrasing Now for 2012 Senate re-election ( She used Monies from her 2006 Senate re-election fund for her 2008 Presidential Bid )

If she wanted to see Obama in the white house shouldn't she be helping Obama raise Money for his presidential bid ?

of course she wants him to lose, but not LOOK like she sabotaged him. if it looks like she "tried her best" to get him elected, and he still lost, she's in prime position to run again in 2012, or so she thinks. What she might not realize is that she's burned a LOT of bridges by acting the way she has, and many people are going to assume that it's her fault if Obama loses.

Front Range, dude...
The next POTUS has a hell of a mess to clean up...either way its going to be ugly. It would not surprise me to see the conniving little carpet muncher/bagger setting up for another run...probably as an Independant.

2 things:

Hillary still owes money from her Presidential campaign. She needs to be running for something so she can get donations.

And if she sabotages Obama in any way, including not working hard for him, she will be a pariah in the party.

But that was not the question. What does Hillary want to she happen was the question.
It is hard to believe Hillary thinks she is all done in her quest to become President. She is one of the most ambitious people I know.

Her campaign had lots of bloops and blips, like the inability to raise enough money or the replacement of critical managers in the heat of her run. I am sure she thinks these mistakes are correctable in 4 years.

But my point is that is doesn't matter what she really thinks. For the next 3 months, she cannot utter a word that she hopes to run for President in 2012 because it will take votes away from Barack, and that will destroy her chances for even receiving the nomination.
