Obama Option?

Armstrong Williams reports (link-o) that the Obama campaign and New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg have devised a plan in the event that Hillary gets the nomination. Bloomberg would give $1 billion to Obama to run as an independent with Bloomberg as his running mate. It's just a rumor, but if it happened, it would probably destroy the Democrat Party (as we know it).

Don't forget: the Clintons' desire for power supersedes the voters, the Democrat Party, and the country. The purpose of superdelegates is for party elders to wrest control of the nomination in case the people make the wrong choice. This is if Hillary "wins" some how. It will then blow-up the Democrat convention, just like in 1968.

Enter Bloomberg.

And Bloomberg would have to be the VeeP on this ticket, ala- McCain-Feingold rules.

Let's do some math. Don't worry, it's simple math.

Say this all happens as outlined. Say McCain is the nominee and gets 40% of the vote. That would be a very low figure for the Republican nominee, but let's pretend attainable by McCain.

That leaves 60%. Let's say this is the best third party run in the history of America and Obama grabs 35% of the vote, to Hillary's 25%. Or reverse those tallies if you like, makes no difference. This is a math problem, after all. If you keep asking questions, I'll put them all on a train too.

Let's just say it breaks down 40% > 35% > 25%.

Good morning, President McCain.
