Is McClinton setting Obama up to lose general election?

Some critics are accusing Sen. Clinton of resorting to the role of “spoiler,” damaging Sen. Obama badly enough to ensure a Republican victory in November. The Clinton campaign’s continuing attacks against Sen. Obama do: “Only one thing. Help Obama lose in November,” Michael Steele, the former lieutenant governor of Maryland told The Final Call. A Republican, Mr. Steele pointed out he is not disappointed that Sen. Clinton’s attacks on Sen. Obama may help Sen. McCain win.

The quote goes something like this,“with friends like (?), who needs enemies.” The (?)= Hillary Clinton. Question: Is Hillary really trying to win or is she working for the unseen power interest that want to keep Sen. Barack Obama, a Washington outsider, out of the White House at all cost, even if it means a third term for the NeoCons and their genocidal quest for Hegemony? She has planned every card in the conservative, right-wing deck; race, religion, fear, gender, and experience. Every time it has backfired. I think the NeoCons see the handwriting on the wall, if Sen. Clinton doesn’t damage Sen. Obama’s image enough, they know that McCain will loss. So what to do? Enter Syria, North Korea, Iran and the propaganda machine called mainstream media. There’s nothing like another conflict to give the International Bankers time to complete the scheme for a one world government, in which their of course rule. www.know4life.blogspot.com , www.finalcall.com .

No. Jeremiah Wright and the stupidity of the Black Community set Obama up to fail. The more people find out, the deeper Obama falls into the hole. There is no "Grand Conspiracy", there is just the simple fact that Blacks don't understand Main Stream society.

...I think Sen. Clinton wants to win. I don't think she's working expressly to lose Sen.Obama the election in November(should he win the primaries). I think she's fighting tooth and nail for herself to run.
My thing, now, with Sen. Clinton, is that she has shown herself to be a BLATANT liar. And looking full into the camera, smirks, and gives a reason like I was tired, and yes, I said something contrary to what I had written before, and I knew was contrary to what I had written before.
Is that saying yes, I lied?
...I have heard much about Mr. Obama, his pastor(EX), his ties to Islam(still interesting to my conspiracy theory nerve), lack of experience, etc.
What I have not heard about is Sen.Clinton's ties.
Some have been touched on, but in the direction of digging for Mr. Clinton, not focusing on the lady herself. But I have read some things that I am sure will be attacked (heavily), if she is to run against McCain in November. I have to wonder how her die-heart supporters will recieve some of these things should that time come. The Rep. party does not even pretend to play nice.
I also wonder how (let's be real), the dehumanizing women cultures of the world will recieve her. Of course, they will smile at her face(maybe), but what if they refuse as stonily as some people refuse Mr. Obama. How will we negotiate with people who simply can not accept a woman as thier equal, no matter how great her achievments?

One thing that needs to be addressed is the state of this country. With that being said each candidate is betting on the other so to speak. McCain for the most part has remained silent as if we was not even running. Blatant attacks coming from the O'Bama and Clinton camp gamble on the ignorance of Americans. Depends on what ignorance they want to strike a cord with.

O'Bama's religious affiliation should have nothing to do with his job as a Senator and potential President. It only came to light and question when he started running for office. The problem with this race, which transpires across our nation, is that we focus on all the bad vices of individuals instead of seeing their good qualities. Prime example Jerry Springer was the highest rated show for 10 years.

No what's that say about the average American. We as Americans want to see the mud fly. They have both played the game trying to discredit one another. The problem I have is that neither candidate has had a clear plan laid out for the American people. It's a race based on slogans, hype, precedents and who will offend who first.

To me the issues that are as plain as day to every single American has taken a back seat. It's more like Jerrry Maguire stating show me the money, help me help you. Instead of showing me the money, its get me in office. What needs to also be addressed is that alot of Americans have lost faith in this government. Lies from the current administration, falsified information from the intelligence community, downplaying the fact this country is in a real nice economic mess and so on.

Yet they preach get me there and we can change. Change has to be wanted from all individuals involved, right down to that old lady deciding to vote for her first time. True, we do have alot of precedents that are occurring, but look at the Democratic party. They promised to lower oil prices when they took the majority almost 2 years ago. Yet oil prices have hit an all time high. I can agree with that column, but only so far. This race is only bringing out the worse of its citizens and those we have elected to lead us.
We are in a period that even those who we trust stab us in the back.

Politics is no longer an ideal or system. It has became just like coporate America eyeing its next opportunity and waiting to play on the ignorance of others all for the quick buck or easy win.

Obama is setting himself up to lose. I want a pit bull as president. Someone who will take a huge bite and hang on, fighting for us, not for self interests. Hillary's hide is tough. She can fight with the best of them and is proving that daily.
