Democrat Conspiracy Theories

I was checking my blogs and found this item at HillBuzz, an ardent pro-Hillary anti-Obama blog:

Does it strike anyone else as strange that the GOP has not hit Obama with anything yet?

Face it, the GOP will not control Congress after the elections this fall. It would take a complete implosion of the Democrats for the GOP to win back the House and Senate. It's not impossible, but it is highly unlikely.

The Supreme Court is firmly in GOP hands and, contrary to the liberal left, that already means Roe v. Wade could be done away with, if the GOP ever wanted to do that. They don't. Scalia, Roberts, Thomas, Alito, and Kennedy would overturn Roe if they wanted, but they don't. The SCOTUS will be in GOP hands for generations to come. And Roe v. Wade is completely safe, because if the GOP didn't overrule it when they controlled the White House, Congress, and the SCOTUS, then they are never going to overrule it.

But, the White House is up for grabs. It sets the agenda, and is an effective counter to Congress, which the GOP knows it will NOT control.

So, why isn't the GOP hitting Obama now?

It seems like they are waiting for something.

Obama is the presumptive Democratic nominee, but not the actual nominee, not until Denver.

It seems to us the GOP is waiting until after the Democrats' Convention in August to begin their assault. Right now, they are allowing Obama to harm himself, with Dukakis-like photo ops like the one with his revamped Presidential Seal.

It just seems like the GOP is playing a great game of high-stakes poker. With this much to lose, it seems like they'd be out swinging already, but instead, they are being unusually sedate.

Waiting.

They've got something on Obama...something big...and they are playing a game of cat and mouse with the Democrats...waiting for them to formally nominate Obama...so they can hit him with what they've got.

I hate to burst your bubble, HillBuzz, but the GOP just isn't that smart. They're accused of all kinds of nefarious schemes, but frankly, when they've won recently it's pretty much been dumb luck or Democrat ineptitude. I wish you were right, but I have my doubts. Unless that rumored "whitey tape" actually exists and is in GOP hands somewhere, I can't imagine what they'd have that they could spring after the convention.

You are right about one thing, though. Obama is a walking gaffe-a-matic and every day brings new ways to embarrass himself. Right now he's doing the job the GOP just won't do.
