They have to stick by their party. If they are going to go against Obama, they are going to have be more subtle about it.

What his imaginative and prescient is isn't probably proper maximum excellent now. the great difference between him and Clinton is that Clinton had to bend to the choose of the Republican Congress, mutually as Obama might have a Democratic one. additionally, neither Obama nor McCain might have the skill to do something the powers in the back of the throne do no longer authorize. So visions and exceedingly speeches, from the two area, are beside the point. i do no longer proportion the terror of a Carter-like administration, because of the fact it become the final time that any president did issues against the genuine ability shape. And no count who's elected, we would have double digit inflation(already do, truly) and double digit unemployment(already do, truly). And if expenses of pastime are no longer raised, there will be no investment with the aid of foreigners interior the yankee dollar, which will shop its fee low and proceed to motivate distant places businesses to maintain paying for up further and added American businesses.

In amongst all of the media hype and rock-star glitz and glamor of the Dems' Convention, I think people would be well advised to "read between the lines" in order to understand what's really going on here.
For instance, the performance at the stump of both Clintons makes me like them a whole lot more, and Obama a whole lot less... but then, I'm a Clinton fan not supporting Obama, so I might just be being crazy.

I'll call you on your talking points. In what way is Obama's solution 'similar to Jimmy Carters'...
I doubt you know the first thing about the Carter Presidency, other than what Rush farted into the airwaves about it.

He doesn't offer a solution similiar to Jimmy Carter, and even if he was its still better than a solution that is almost exactly the same as George Bush.
As far as why are the clintons supporting him.
1. He is the best candidate left.
2. If he loses and Hillary supporters are the reason, her presidential aspirations are in the toilet and the toilet is flushed. There is no way Hillary could ever win a general election without strong turnout from liberals and blacks, and if her supporters decide that loving bush is the way to go - she will never get strong turnout from them. Liberals don't tend to forget things, they will vote green.

It makes you wonder what kind of back alley promises were made . Think about it.The Clinton's don't have to do anything. It really makes the party look fake & shallow. They all agre then disagree & spin it when it suits them. Wishy washy politics - They're rockstars!

Oh, but they have been subtle, 'buttface' (funny name)- didn't you listen to Bill? Clever, I thought. Sounded like he was being forced to be nice, but there were definitely some subtle digs.
As to the question, No, they don't have to, but they are for political reasons. They know he's not ready for this, though.

The Clinton's are doing it to preserve Hilliary's next run in 2012 or 2016. She can not side with McCain because it would end her career.

The Clintons are NOT backing Obama joe Biden. Note that during her "slam dunk" speech the other night, Sen. Clinton never said that Sen. McCain should stop using her in his commercial (where she said Obama isn't ready to be President). That says it all, you think she would be screaming for McCain to stop it, very interesting.

Give me A THOUSAND CARTERS as opposed to McCan't.
America will not survive more bush policies - it just won't.
>>>And the plural of "Clinton" is "CLINTONS" not "Clinton's" for God's sake.
