In a sly effort to appease a handful of potential donors, Barack has been engaging in a little "double-talk" lately.
For instance, in a conversation with a Hillary Clinton supporter in recent days, the Senator skillfully maneuvered his way through a couple of land mines in a bold-faced effort to avoid "tipping" his hand in respect to the Clinton "running-mate" issue.
In my estimation, it was a deceitful ploy to string the woman along (Jill Iscol, a Hillary supporter) without ruffling any feathers or negating opportunities for cash hand-outs in the future.
All you have to do is read between the lines and the truth becomes evident!
Although he told the potential donor that Hillary was on his "list", he added that the situation with her hubby, Bill, was - er - "complicated".
After all, he opined philosophically,
"Once you're a president, even if you're a former president, you're always a president."
Or to quote Gertrude Stein,
"A rose is a rose is a rose."
Eh?
While Obama assured Ms. Iscol that Bill wouldn't be a "disqualifying" factor, he did wonder aloud if a second "spouse" would make the White House a little crowded.
Fine, if you're into three-ways, I guess!
According to his terminology, he's grappling with the issues, in spite of the fact it's a "no-brainer".
This leads me to believe he'll let the whole scenario play out as long as it is to his advantage, then dump Hillary.
All is fair in love and politics, right?
Willy rancor bonks Hillary out of running...
