Original article: Could be Biden time

BACKDOOR SMOKEY ROOMS - - - where the air is clear & clarity of all is more easily seen.

. . . . ah'hemmmmm

. . . still don't gets it, does you?

- - - the days of smoke-filled back room, where the intelligentsia of the parties met to mull over the 'electability' of a candidate ... is loooong gone.

in recent times the two parties have been taken over by the two radical mindless fringes --- bibble-huggin, gun-totin, corporate buccaneers on the Right ...... and well meaning Bubbleheaded Loozers on the Left. Their respective victories have been total. Why else would the voters end up with such pathetic unqualified nincompoops like Bush Junior or Barry O. ??

Pointing out the ridiculous fact that Biden fared so poorly in such an atmosphere shows the writer's adolescent sense of why candidates, in the final measure, actually win the White House.

The Noise being yodeled out of the Salon reaches the prospective electorate in reverberating, (oftener than not) irratating waves.

The all-powerfull fencesitters (23% of this year's uncommitted voters according to this morning's MS/NBC news segment) are the only voters who have ever won elections ....

The Noisy Fringes of each party rarely bolt from their dependable 40-45% of the total vote ... More importantly, the Noisy Fringes have NEVER ONCE DELIVERED A VICTORY. - - - EVER !!

Victory then depends NOT on how well a Joe Biden, or for that matter, a John McCain (whom the core base of Republicans consider a traitor for so often crossing the aisle to engineer outrageous legislation with the Feingolds-Liebermans-Kennedys-AndAssortedEnemies of the GOP.

There is a reason why McCain is running for the White House from the Poor House --- who would send a dollar to a guy who has been a thorn in the GOP side when he was calling their Congressional Angels assholes over immigration issues ... battling the Bush White House by heading the drive to establish the 9/11 Commission to find out whose heads would roll & calling for Rumsfeld's head for numberless botched crimes he's committed against the american people. No .... leave the traitor in the poor house .... he don't deserves a dime from my pocketses.

Then Comes Barry !! --- a Masterfull Phony of the First Degree.

MARTIN LUTHER KING JR:

(characteristic quavering voice) "I Have a Dream ..."

BARRY OBLARNY:

(characteristic weird deapening of voice) "I Have Hope ..."

OBAMABUTTS:

(in starry-eyed blubbery unison) "Golly, I think I'ma g'wona Faint"

In lived in two different homes on the very perimeter of the posh campus of the private high school Barry was attending at the time. It is famously the oldest & poshest of the privelidge schools in the entire state. I know its halls, libraries, concert rooms & country club playing fields rather well -- my cousins attended the school.

I attended school a mile or so up the road, in the upscale desireable neighborhood Barry was raised in ... no inkling of South Chicago in these environs. Barry left no mark in the state in which he was raised. He attended Harvard, ran a college paper and then (with some impressive schoolin) ran for office in an area peopled with illiterates ... to put it bluntly. He won his seat by besting my cousin's husband, who at the time had gotten into some embarrasing shennanigans, according to his first wife .... and others.

Be that as it may .... Barry got to where he is under murky pretenses ... rousing up the Black Vote across the Land (90+%) he's a descendent of Southern White Slave Holders .... nary a Slave in his entire ancestry.... not a one.

Yet he 'connects' to the poor black voter, in spite of this FACT. (I note only in passing that many of the organizations now calling for slave retributions would overlook a target like Barry .... and instead hit on the population majority who lost hundreds of thousands of ancestors who were maimed or killed in their Church Callings of freeing the Slaves. Not to mention hitting the millions of Americans (again, a majority) whose ancestors came from Italy, Scandinavia, Russia, Poland, etc, etc , etc LONG AFTER the Civil War.

Last Week Ralph Nader was incredulously lambasted for speaking a Truth ... Americans are OBSESSED BY RACE .... and misplaced AMERICAN GUILT by the Left is the ONE & ONLY reason that after 2 or 3 years in an unremarklable (even quiet) term in Congress, Barry OBlarney was tagged as THE MOST QUALIFIED individual (of 300 million Americans) to lead the FREE WORLD.

... possitively incredulous.

Draft Biden, Nader, or anybody in Denver this summer ... but certainly not this green, unskilled, unaccomplished charletans whose only Measure thus far .... is an uncanny knack for ... deapening his voice & posturing phoniness before his starry-eyed teeny-boppers.
