I predict we will have an Obama birth certificate, in time for the 2012 elections. Hillary will "stumble" upon it a few weeks before the major primary elections, after she has spent the two years prior to the 2012 election beating him about the head and shoulders with stuff such as Qaddafi saying "my african son"

This scenario or one like it is plausible. I have conflicting notions here. In part I think Obama was a watershed/evolution for the Dems, he is as slick as they get and perhaps Hillary's too old and bitter, but more importantly both she and Oba-Mao are hustlers, and she is an inferior one. I don't think Obama can be out slicked by anyone. The candidate who beats him and I hope it's 2012 will have to be the opposite of slick, someone seen as tough, experienced, smart, and apolitical. ( Bloomberg maybe Gen. Petraeus).

Then again someone pointed out to me years ago the Clintons are about the nastiest people around, they have left a wake of scandals, suicides, and carnage behind them, so perhaps I am naive to think her time has passed.
