Generally speaking, Yes We Can, but... Obama/Hillary? No. You may not.

but but but... he is young and idealistic and she is old and jaded, and they can have political discussions and she can cheat on Bill and they can both be really fucking manipulative and conniving (okay, people go on and on about how "genuine" Obama seems but, uh, seriously? imo he's the most calculating of the candidates. it's obvious. you can see it in his eyes, man, HIS EYES!). And since this obviously exists in an alternate universe wherein Obama is not married to Michelle, at the end of the story, after he has become Disillusioned By Love (not that anything with Hills would be LOVE, but he's naive! he doesn't know that!), he can meet Michelle and they can ride off into the sunset! And Hillary can go be mean to Bill or whatever and he'll humor her because now she's like his suga' momma. And then Hillary can run after, idk, John Edwards or something. I don't know, I just like this idea of Hillary as a kind of ineffective cougar (the men she gets aren't young enough for her to be an EFFECTIVE cougar) who ensnares Obama and then they fight a lot. On the campaign trail. I HAVE NO IDEA, MAN, BUT I THINK ABOUT THIS WHENEVER I READ CAMPAIGN NEWS/WATCH DEBATES/ETC. And since I'm a polisci major... that's a lot.

Uh, completely irrelevant, but Obama's main campaign strategist guy is named David Axelrod. AXELROD. THIS NAME WAS MEANT FOR A PORN STAR. And he's pretty brilliant and what he does, too, and one of his BFFs (okay, I don't know that they're BFFs, really, but I DO know that they're at least decently good friends), Geoff Garin, replaced Mark Penn on Hillary's campaign, and oh god I could go on and on forever about the awesomeness of Axelrod and the selloutness of Garin, but I will spare you my political geekery.

And you know, I'm actually surprised that there's not more political RPF. I mean, I occasionally see some Bush/Putin or Bush/Cheney but... why have I never seen ROVE/Cheney? Or Gravel/Kucinich? Or Rice/Pelosi? Is it because they're mostly not terribly attractive? Is it because people (wrongly!) think political stuff is boring? I mean, if you're going to write RPF, why don't you go all the way and write REALLY cracked out shit like that? J2 has nothing on this sort of thing.

wait wait, there's Hillary/Obama (Homama?) fanfic out there?

Well, not that I've seen. BUT THERE SHOULD BE. I know there's definitely Bush/Putin and Bush/Cheney, and I once read a Bush/Putin/Blair (on all fours in the oval office! fucking each other into agreeing to treaties!) but I haven't seen any politislash for Democratic politicians.

But did you read my reply to slippyslope where I expound upon My Vision of Homama (this is replacing Lizzorne as the best ship name ever! I had been calling them Hillabar like they were a candy, but no! Homama!)? I think it's illustrative of the type of cracktastic shit I really like to read. And write. Except I feel too weird writing RPF to even try this.

OH GOD WAIT I FOUND SOME.

Hillary and Barack: After the Debate (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4121677/1/Hillary_and_Barack_After_The_Debate) by Georgshadow on ff.net. AHAHHAHA. SO GREAT.

His hands gently squeezed her shoulders. It was enough to drive her mad.

She quickly turned around and stood up, knocking his hands away. “If you feel how I feel, Barack, just tell me, tell me!”

“I think I do,” he said. In moments, his hands were back, holding her arms like he’d never let go. “I’ve fallen for you quicker than the youth of America have fallen for my campaign.”

“Oh, Barack! Why?”

“I can’t say. Perhaps I have a thing for arrogant, white women.”

“Perhaps you do. Perhaps I have a thing for overly popular, half-black men.”

He grabbed her and kissed her like she’d never been kissed before.

I can't ever unsee/unthink that. Ever. Ever. Ever.

Oh, he did. He stood back and furiously whipped off his suit as fast as he could. And he stood before her, clothed in nothing but his Hanes’ Tagless Boxer-Briefs.

“Hillary, you can’t imagine how long I’ve wanted this,” he said, moving toward her and carefully helping her out of her dress. “How often I’ve thought of you like this.”

“And you wouldn’t imagine all the times I’ve closed my eyes and pretended that Bill was you,” she replied, as he fumbled with the clasp of her Playtex All-Day Comfort Form Flattering bra.

“We were meant to be together,” he whispered, running his hands along her legs, and her Leggs Microfiber Control Top panty hose.

“Barack, I have an idea. Let’s call John Edwards and see if he wants to join,” he said as he stood back up.

“Even better, let’s call Mike Huckabee.”

“Guliani?”

“Yes, my love, yes.” He took her gently in his arms. “But not Ron Paul.”



okay clearly this is a joke but someone took the time to write this, and this person should be shot and hanged in the town square for all to see and cower.

But no! It is brilliantly cheesy and hilarious! I laughed until I cried. I am only said that it was not chock-full of political geekery and policy/strategy analysis. And that there was not MORE of it. (Although I'm not sure I would have been able to take more of it, hah!)

... Only if Hilary was a dude... I'm too into slash XD

hahahha but she practically is!
