There are rumors going around that because of the popularity of Sarah Palin, that Barack Obama may pick Hillary Clinton to replace Joe Biden as his vice-presidential nominee.<\/p>\n

Notice the following news item:<\/p>\n

Could Clinton still come back?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
Daily Mail, UK<\/strong> – Sept 25, 2008<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/p>\n

The internet is buzzing today with the rumour that Barack Obama\u2019s gaffe-prone running mate Joe Biden will drop out of the race for health reasons – to be replaced by Hillary Clinton.<\/p>\n

John McCain\u2019s selection of Sarah Palin as his running mate has created so much interest in the Republicans that Mr Obama will have to make a radical move to regain momentum, the argument goes.<\/p>\n

Mrs Clinton could be just the key. Mr Biden, who had surgery in 1998 to repair two brain aneurysms, would drop out after the vice presidential debates due to be held on October 2, according to the claims – leaving the way open for the former First Lady.<\/p>\n

Most are dismissing the rumour as the usual internet chatter. But it has been given added weight by those who have not addressed it – namely Fight the Smears.<\/p>\n

Fight the Smears is a website the Obama campaign set up to quash just such damaging Internet rumours – but it has not yet touched this one, though that may be out of fear of fuelling the rumour.<\/p>\n

The Obama campaign has not commented on it, other than to say that Biden\u2019s medical records will be released soon\u2026<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Biden has caused several problems for the Obama campaign. This week he was forced to issue a clarification after he called one of his own campaign ads \u201cterrible\u201d in an interview with CBS News.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

He was also rebuked Obama after he spoke out against the government bailout of American International Group last week before Obama was ready to take a position.<\/span><\/p>\n

On Tuesday, he said that President Franklin Roosevelt had gone on television in 1929 to discuss the Wall Street crash – but Herbert Hoover was president in 1929 and the TV hadn\u2019t been invented yet.<\/span><\/p>\n

At one point, he even said Hillary Clinton might have been a better pick for Obama\u2019s No. 2.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI doubt it,\u201d said Christopher Hull, presidential scholar and adjunct government professor at Georgetown University, when told of the Biden rumor. \u201cJoe Biden is not that big a liability. Joe Biden was arguably the most experienced candidate in the [Democratic primary] race.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cJoe Biden, of course, has shot off his mouth and gotten himself in trouble,\u201d he added. \u201cIt\u2019s Joe Biden we\u2019re talking about.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Though Obama lost ground in the polls after McCain tapped Palin to be his running mate, he has recently regained some of that footing\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

Hull said he would understand the desire to put Clinton on the ticket if Obama were persistently trailing in the polls. <\/span>http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/worldnews\/article-1061791\/Could-Clinton-come-Internet-buzzes-rumours-Biden-replaced-Hillary-Obamas-running-mate.html<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

I went to the Obama campaign\u2019s Fight the Smears<\/em> website this morning, and it still had not commented on this rumor (though that is not surprising).<\/p>\n

Having watched some of the debate on BBC last evening before sunset, I noticed that Barack Obama once again praised his running mate, Joe Biden.\u00a0 So, unless Joe Biden really does have more health problems and\/or John McCain surges in the polls, I really doubt that Barack Obama would pick Hillary Clinton.<\/p>\n

But of course, stranger things have happened.<\/p>\n

\nSome Doctrines of Antichrist<\/a> Are there any doctrines taught outside the Churches of God which can be considered as doctrines of antichrist? This article suggests at least three. It also provides information on 666 and the identity of \u201cthe false prophet\u201d. Plus it shows that several Catholic writers seem to warn about an ecumenical antipope that will support heresy.
\nDo Certain Catholic Prophecies About Antichrist Warn Against Jesus?<\/a> Will the final \u201cAnti-Christ\u201d be Jewish, insist on Saturday, be opposed to the trinity, and bring in the millennium? Catholic writings indicate this, but what does the Bible show?
\nTwo Horned Beast of Revelation and 666<\/a> This article explains how the LCG views this, and compares this to Ellen White.
