Prediction: Barack Obama Will Choose Not To Run Again; Primary Race Will Be Hillary Clinton & Evan Bayh

February 16, 2010 / 3:02 pm • By Dr. Melissa Clouthier

Now, that’s a prediction, right?

Thought I’d make a big, bold dramatic statement before leaving for CPAC where I’ll be for the next few days.

    WOW! Very bold prediction! I never thought I’d ever, in a million years, after hours of being water boarded, in space, by Darth Vader, say that I would love to see another Clinton in the White House, but after Barry, I’d take Stalin in the White House (at least he’d be honest about taking us Left at break-neck speeds)

    FOR THE RECORD – I DO NOT ENDORSE ANY LEFTIST, JUST MAKING A POINT

    YOu know the prediction of Hillary is in the air all along and not so far of reality, that she will seek election or run against Obama in 2012, I even read about that in European new articles of which I cover in order to know what the EUropean opinion is and to gain information the local left wing media is hiding from us.

    That would be the first time in American History that a partymember is challenging the president at re-election. NOrmally no party does that.

    Rumors has it that, officially, she is growing weary of her duty and Obama is trying to have her appointed in the U.S. Supreme Court. 2 seats in there are going to be vacant in 2 years. That would shut her down for running against him.

    The story with Evan Bayh is new to me but would make sense since he announced “He would love to serve the people but does not like Congress” – interesting choice of words

    Sorry, I disagree. Obama will never give up being in the limelight. Actually, I don’t think we could get rid of him even if we have someone actually trying to beat him next time. Hillary will be in the running.

    Actually Tom it would not be a first. Ted Kennedy ran against Carter in 1980. The convention was particularly nasty.

    Hi Jody,
    dont be sorry to disagree, that is the beauty on democracy. I dont even think we disagree so much,

    like you I doubt that we get arid of BarryO anytime soon. And yes Hillary will run. She is such a power horny **** she will try. What I was trying to say is this:

    Normally the reigning party does not perform preliminaries and goes for the reigning president re-election. Only the oposition performs preliminaries and runs against the current president. Now with Hil running this will be the first time a partymember interferes in a presidency.

    I am certain her own party will shot her down but I also think she will try. The high chair is not an option for her.

    Either way, we have different problems, right now i only see one real cnadidate that can match the 2012 race and I am afraid we the republicans or better the party will start a fight within and not support the best candiate but the most party convinient blue collar.

    Either way – lets keep the fight going.

    Derek, thanks I forgot about that. Has that been the only time?

    God Bless

    Actually there are generally small challenges, Bush faced a few people. Carter was the last person to have a real challenge, and before him Reagan gave Ford a good run in 1976. Lyndon Johnson actually decided to not run for re-election in 68 after doing poorly in the first primary. It is definitely not unheard of, there just hasn’t been a serious threat since Carter.

    @ Derek – thanks for the info – I sure have need for it since I plan on posting something about that on my blog. God bless you THANK YOU

    Melissa — if Obama were an honest man grounded in reality, I’d agree with you prediction.

    But he’s not and he ain’t.

    The only way Barry backs out is if there is any possibility that the vetting of his past that should have occurred during the first campaign were to threaten to come to light.

    But barring that, Barry is too much of a narcissists to willingly not seek out re-election.

    With that said, I do believe he will be primaried out by Hillary (and Bayh will run as well.)

    That would be the first time in American History that a partymember is challenging the president at re-election.

    You must have missed Ted Kennedy challenging Carter in the Dem Primary in 1980.

    Tom, I am praying you are wrong. We need a decent contender this time around. Who do you like at this point? You’re being very discreet … even after the bold prediction of Hillary.

    CPAC polling goes with Ron Paul????

    What difference does it make who the Ds nominate, the Rs don’t have a candidate capable of beating Gomer Pyle.
