What do you think of the rumors Rush Limbaugh and others have been talking about, where Joe Biden or Hillary Clinton could be nominated to the Supreme Court when Justices Stevens and Ginsburg retire, as expected, sometime this year?
The idea of Joe Biden doing anything besides running a Baskin-Robbins (and eating it into oblivion) after his term as Vice President is up in 2013 is ludicrous. There’s a better chance of Biden replacing David Letterman on the Late Show (where we think he would actually do a great job) than becoming a SCOTUS Justice.
The conspiracy theory in all this is that once Biden is out, Dr. Utopia would replace him with Hillary Clinton as VP, thus ostensibly bringing the Jacksonian-Clinton Democrats back into the party. The catch with this is that no matter how much we like Hillary Clinton, we’re not going to support Dr. Utopia or what he is doing to the country. Even if she became his VP, we still wouldn’t vote for him for re-election. We will not vote for Dr. Utopia for President, even if he made one of us, personally, his VP. We just can’t do that to America…he needs to be defeated and the Left needs to be removed from power. Period.
As for Hillary, we just don’t see her wanting or accepting a spot on the Court. There’s a guy we know here in Chicago, who is kind of a dreamboat, who we could listen to go on and on for hours about all manner of nonsense. He’s wrong about everything, but so cute it never matters. Welcome to Boystown. Well, this guy, Drake, insisted in 2008 that Hillary Clinton would be a SCOTUS Justice, before she became Secretary of State. Even though Hillary’s never shown any sort of desire to be a judge. Whatsoever. How long has it been since she practiced law? She’d be great at anything she set out to do, but sitting in a big ugly robe, being quiet most of the time, and only appearing in public at the State of the Union Address is not the best fit for her.
If she chooses to never run for President again, we see Clinton as UN Secretary General, or running for Governor of either New York, Arkansas, or (it’s a stretch) Illinois. She would, in fact, be a fantastic Governor. We wish very much she was running for Governor in New York right now, instead of allowing Andrew Cuomo to force David Paterson out and take that slot for himself.
We don’t see her retiring. As much as she’s looking forward to grandchildren once Chelsea is married later this summer, we don’t think she’ll be taking up knitting or slowing down any, after she resigns as Secretary of State (which we think will happen before the year is out, after the trouncing Democrats take in November).
We hope those midterm elections are so bad, and the collapse of the Democrat Party is so severe, that Dr. Utopia uses his Parkinsons as an excuse not to seek a second term, so Hillary can have the Democrats’ nomination in 2012. The sad truth, though, is that we don’t believe ANY Democrat can win in 2012…because Dr. Utopia, Howard Dean, Donna Brazile, and Rahm Emanuel have so ruined things and alienated too many former party loyalists.
If anyone can save the Democrats, it’s Hillary Clinton…but will she want to save them, after they backstabbed her the way they did?
Democrats could have had 8 years in the White House with her…and possibly spun off Dr. Utopia after that, for at least 12 years in power. Instead, those fools pushed Hillary aside for the effeminate, biracial, socialist bumbled they proclaimed a “Lightbringer”. Whatever the Hell that means.
Idiots.
But, with so many rumors swirling around lately about the future, we’re wondering what you think is going to happen. Can you imagine any scenarios where either Biden or Clinton, or both, end up on the Supreme Court?
Do you think Hillary Clinton would ever end up as Vice President?
Do you think Dr. Utopia will seek a second term?
What think you?
