They Cut A Deal

The Clintons have done a `180 turn in regards to Barack Obama and his qualifications. He has gone from not being experienced enough, and weak on foreign affairs. To being the answer to all of America's ills. And the best man for the job. A sentiment shared by even his running mate. He hasn't gained any experience during this election. Him and Hillary both have been absent from their jobs trying to get another one. So what could have changed? I know both Clintons have an ego, and can't be taking this defeat to well. Bill Clinton was attacking Obama just last week. Then they turn around and deliver two of the best speeches of the convention. Are they lying now, or were they lying then?

Bill was laying it on thick, while Hillary was more reserved in her speech. He called Barack's name and praised him at least twenty times. Hillary focused more on forwarding her agendas and party umity. I think Hillary is laying the groundwork for a 2012 bid. Then it dawned on me what was happening. The one thing that has changed considerably while they battled each other. Hillary has accumulated quite a debt. Last I heard she had spent $18 million, 5 of them her own. Like him or not, Barack is the man with the bag. With all the money he has raised, he can easily pay that off. Even though Hillary didn't win. The Clintons are still the first family in the Democratic party. They sold their influence to Barack Obama for a $1 a vote. They cut a deal.
