Clinton’s Last-Gasp Proposal: “Nominate Me Now, and I’ll Support Obama in 2016″

DENVER – In a gut-wrenching prime time address at the Democratic National Convention, Hillary Clinton made a last-gasp proposal to obtain her party’s nomination in exchange for her promise to support Barrack Obama in eight years.

In a no-holds-barred barrage on Obama, Clinton attacked the Illinois Senator’s loyalty to America while painting herself as a patriot.   “Just this afternoon I had the American flag tattooed across my left breast,” she declared.  “I challenge Senator Obama to do the same.”  She proceeded to unbutton her blouse and expose her left breast, which she gently cupped to show off the tattoo.  Network television cameras cut away to a close-up of a horrified Joe Biden. 

The Obama camp earlier labelled Clinton’s visit to The Jester’s Court Skin Parlor a “cheap and tawdry stunt.”

Clinton also acknowledged Ted Kennedy’s heroic appearance at the convention the previous night but added that his endorsement of Obama should be invalidated because it was “the product of a mentally impaired person.”  She smirked: “I mean, you all saw him up here last night.”

She also attempted to foment division among black delegates by accusing Obama of “trying to displace our beloved Jesse Jackson as head Negro.” 

Clinton defiantly ended her speech by declaring that she would not pull out of the race yet “because you never know what might happen to Obama between now and Thursday night. I’m not saying one way or the other that I wish something bad on him.”

“It’s my turn,” she said sharply.  “And I’m going to get this nomination whether the voters want me or not.”

Former President Bill Clinton declared it ”the best speech I’ve ever heard.”
