RSSBarack Obama Says, “American People Will Want that “New Car Smell” with “Not Much Mileage” For the 2016 Presidential Campaign
In an ABC News interview with George Stephanopoulos, President Barack Obama made some rather peculiar comments with regards to Hillary Clinton. When asked about Hillary Clinton and her possible run for president in 2016, Obama said the following, “… she and a number of other possible Democrat candidates would be terrific presidents.” Obama then went on to say, “if she decides to run, I think she will be a formidable candidate. I think she will make a great president”. He did this while making a face, at the 1:04 mark. Then came the money line of the interview …
“I think the American people, you know, they’re going to want that new car smell. You know, they want to drive something off the lot that — that doesn’t have as much mileage as me.”
I believe that Obama made a back-handed slap at Hillary Clinton referencing a “new car smell” and one with “not much mileage”. However, mainly I think he was referring to himself as being so unpopular by 2016 rolls around that no one will probably want him stumping for them, much like in 2014. If you think Obama was toxic in 2014, just wait until 2016. What was a direct slap to Hillary was when he was specifically asked about her, Obama said that a number of other possible Democrat candidates would be terrific presidents. Hardly a ringing endorsement.

“I think the American people, you know, they’re going to want that new car smell,” Obama said in an interview that aired Sunday on ABC’s “This Week.” “You know, they want to drive something off the lot that — that doesn’t have as much mileage as me.”
“When you’ve been president for six years, you know, you’ve got some dings,” Obama said. “You know, they’re probably not going to be looking at me to campaign too much.”
“I think at the end of two years if — if they want me to do some selective things, I’ll be happy to do them, but I suspect that folks will be ready to see me go off to the next thing.”
“I am very interested in making sure that I’ve got a Democratic successor,” Obama said. “So I’m going to do everything I can, obviously, to make sure that whoever the nominee is, is successful.”
She hasn’t announced so I don’t want to jump the gun,” Obama said about former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, whom he said he speaks with regularly. “If she decides to run, I think she will be a formidable candidate and I think she’d be a great president.”
“She’s not going to agree with me on everything,” the President continued. “And, you know, one of the benefits of running for president is you can stake out your own positions — and have a clean slate, a fresh start.”
UPDATE I: Obama Is Damaging Hillary’s Chances.
Which leads perfectly into the WSJ article of how Barack Obama is damaging and will damage Hillary Clinton’s presidential nominee chances. Hillary Clinton is linked directly to the Obama presidency and is hardly considered one with a “new car smell”. Just like in 2014, Obama may not have been on the ballot, but his policies were. The same will hold true in 2016. Turnabout is fair play. Obama ran against GWB, Democrats are going to have to distance themselves from Obama.
President Obama ’s high-risk immigration gamble may have severe consequences for Washington, the country and the Democratic Party, most of all Hillary Clinton .
Mrs. Clinton’s putative bid for the Democratic presidential nomination is already running into trouble. The national exit poll from the recently completed midterm elections showed her with less than a majority of voters (43%) saying she would make a good president. When pitted against an unnamed Republican candidate, Mrs. Clinton lost 40% to 34%.
Those grim numbers followed on a September WSJ/NBC poll showing a plunge in Mrs. Clinton’s favorability rating, to 43%, from 59% in 2009.

Well, I guess he just shot Hilary in the foot. So she smells and has not much mileage, she is 67 yrs old. And who wants to smell like a new car.
“A new car smell, not much mileage”. What a dumb ass thing to say!!!
We’re not looking for a car, something mechanical, we have something more in mind, like a human being.
obama just doesn’t get it….his mileage is a road map of destruction….
We want a President with mileage accumulated by experience, knowledge, morality, financial awareness and control, someone that respects our flag and what it stands for. Someone that won’t pay ransom and negotiate with terrorists. We want a true American that represents our country with dignity, pride, loyalty and trust. We want someone that knows how to tell the TRUTH!!!!
And he says he has had a few “dings”, it’s more like many earth-shattering “gongs”.
On top of everything else he and michelle have no couth. He is now supporting jimmy dean who has been arrested and jailed for aex crimes against a male juvenile. Knowing obama’ attitude who would want him around their son?. So he recently visited a school in Las Vegas for a speech….don’t even cast your eyes upon my child.
Then we writes off his extended stay at an exquisite golf club while he’ there. michelle visits a very poor neighborhood school, children with holes in their shoes, if they even had any on, and wears a $500.00 pair of gym shoes.
The two of them are pathetic.
No Barry, they are sick of your dead fish smell and Hillary’s rotting flesh smell. And, the decayed smell of pelosi and Reid.
Eric Holder just smells like ass .
