Very attractive article. Thanks for the link.

This is a great article, rachel. Thanks for posting.

This article demonstrates point by point how (queen) Hillary out maneuvers (king) Obama at every turn.

Below is in quotes.

.... "Besides vanquishing the eight pawns on the chess board, here are few more victories for the Clintons.

• The last minute save of the Turkish-Armenian accords opening the borders between these two longtime enemies.

• Bill Clinton’s dramatic feel-good rescue of the two female reporters held hostage in North Korea

• Clinton being named No. 4 of the 25 “smartest people” of the decade by the political blog The Daily Beast: “If anyone has a more intellectually rigorous resume for the decade, we have yet to see it.” High praise.

• A flattering article about Clinton in the December issue of Vogue magazine, complete with photos by the legendary Annie Liebowitz.

• Clinton’s approval rating in the high 60-percentile while Obama’s flirts under 50.

• The near “irrelevance” of those special envoys Mitchell and Holbrooke. They have been sidelined or mired in diplomatic quicksand.

• The success in adoption of her preferred Afghan strategy — and in securing NATO troop support over the expected 5,000 offered. (Something Clinton lectured Obama about in a primary debate: never get on the plane unless the deal has already been done.)

Whether the more agile Queen has been successfully “checked” by the King or he “checkmated” by her; only history will tell.

In the meantime, looking towards a possible transfer of power, some are rephrasing the medieval shout, “The King is dying. Long live the Queen.”'

I was going to post this same article, but Rachel beat me to it.

It is definitely a must-read.

I'm really enjoying this article, Rachel. It's like a trip down memory lane. I think a lot of us knew Hillary was biding her time, knowing how it would all shake out.

Barry can't get past the fact of who he really is - that's his weakness. Hillary can't either, and that's her strength. wink

Alex · Diamond

Oooo, I didn't know this:

7. However, the most stealth-like, damaging, and perhaps satisfactory capture, came from the inelegant dismissal of former Clinton White House counsel, turned Obama-supporter and Clinton basher, Greg Craig.

Craig, who turned on Clinton during the primaries, did so in a rather nasty, but effective email arguing that she failed the test as commander-in-chief, that her claims of involvement in foreign affairs were bogus, and that she “never answered the phone either to make a decision on any pressing national security issue-not at 3 a.m. or at any other time of day.”

Currently, Craig is out of the White House-dismissed in a manner that brought howls, from the liberal activists, and have accelerated the disbelief, doubt, and defections among the Obama “believers”.

That was a great article, however, I cringe at it as well, because we know the Obots will start clamorin for her head, accusing her of manipulations and deliberately undermining Obummer. I do also hope that Coakley wins MA. What a setback for CK!

You're so right, jdona. But I think we've gotten to the point where people see Barry for what he is, even those who most strongly supported him. What is shoring Obama up at this point and to the bitter end will be the media. But now we have numbers on our side, and that is why CNN and MSNBC are going down the tubes!

Here are some fabulous comments from under the article:

Thank you for pointing out this brilliant strategy! Hill was and is my Gal and I am holding out hope for 2012 that she can rescue the Democratic Party from under Obama’s bus! Her grace, intelligence and patience will no doubt prove her to be the more formidable player.

My Mom is a chess player. She added to your article that if the Queen is removed from the board and one of her pawns gets to the King’s side - the Queen can be reinstated! Hmmmmmm…..

We all said he would be Bush II if elected so this is no suprise to Hillary Supporters. Here it is going on a year later and we still have a President in training or worse a do nothing President besides special MONEY interest which is no different then Bush. Oh you left out CNN & MSNBC and how their ratings have fallen. When Faux is now the trusted news we are indeed in trouble! We still have Dr. Coward Dean to tople and Donna Brazile and a few others I can think of for the May treason! I am not a Democrat I am a out of the ditch on the road liberal who belongs to the 537 reboot movement!

The death of Clintonism, like the demise of America, has been greatly exaggerated. We did not lose in 2008, we had a setback that showed us who the real enemies are.

Methinks by 2012, and twelve straight years of incompetence, the nation may be ready for a future to the type of governance that made America great.

The Clinton backstabbers are being picked off one-by-one. The biggest Clinton backstabber of all is next, followed by all the enemies of America.

Clintonistas don’t die: we multiply. The next great American President may not be Hillary herself, but it will at least be a person who embraces the best of Clintonian policy.

The struggle to restore strength and experience to the American Presidency isn’t over. Not by a longshot.

Fabulous! She was always the better candidate–and 18 million of us knew it. If it had not been for the delegate mess, complete with manipulation of MI & FL and rampant caucus fraud, and aided and abetted by the DNC leaders and unprecedented media bias, she would have the top job right now, and been much stronger and more decisive in every area. People got suckered into marketing hype that is now proving to be the illusion many of us knew it to be. Hillary had almost 40 years of experience–despite the ill-informed Clinton haters distortions of her impressive public service career in many areas. Her natural intelligence and work ethic complete the picture. She’s a true leader.

It was Obvious who was ready for the Job .
Who is paying for all the lawsuits against Obama for keeping all his records sealed ,please don’t say us , It is legitimate to ask and demand why so much is sealed . Transparency , don’t think so. Thanks will look into 537 reboot movement !

and one from our dear friend!

Love it! My heart is rejoicing as I read every line. Lighting my candles for her and for our country. We are forever her villagers.
