Obama to Supreme Court?
Barack Obama to Supreme Court?

Big Head DC has received word from credible sources close to Hillary Clinton that the presidential candidate has already considered what role she'd like Barack Obama to play in her White House, if she were to win. And, as of this moment, she doesn't want him in the Executive Branch at all. Rather, she thinks he would make a good candidate to fill one of the vacancies that are expected on the Supreme Court during the next presidential term. Obama's youth and legal expertise are said to be the top reasons she believes he could be a long term force on the bench.

Concentrate on winning the nomination first, which you can still do by getting at least 69% of the vote in ALL NINE of the remaining contests. Then go out and beat John McCain. THEN you can start thinking about getting Obama out of the way of the DLC for life!

9. Exactly. He's to liberal to be a Clinton appointee. I find it amusing that people ......
believe that Breyer and Ginsburg are both liberals. They're only liberal enough so they can not be labeled conservative. Feed the people a few crumbs and screw them on the bigger issues.

13. Exactly my thought....
He'll be the youngest former president we've ever had with lots of years left in him. Off the the Court with him.

8. He's undenably more qualified for the USSC than for the presidency
and would probably be confirmed.

Not that this scenario is likely.

More likely that he gets the nomination, loses the GE by Dukakis like numbers- and perhaps becomes a one term Senator in the process.

11. That would keep him out of the WH papers, too.
I still think Hillary is slated to protect the Bush administration once she gets in (or is selected like George).

I don't think much is done anymore that hasn't been worked out ahead of time. I hope I'm wrong.

14. You probably don't understand the concept of "for entertainment purposes only"
It means "Grow a sense of humor, Einstien."

15. Thanks for the insult..since you have such an
amazing sense of humor I think you could have replied to me humorously that this was "entertainment" and I would have laughed.
