The future:

2006 - Gets handed a senator's seat with no fight at all despite losing the debates handily.

2007 - Promise not to run for President. Burns all record of his Illinois votes.

2008 - Obama runs for President. Hillary gets VP. In a debate with McCain the week before the elections Romney beats Hillary with his healthcare plan, but in an attempt to grandstand McCain brings up Obama's most controversial votes, Obama replies That McCain himself once stood for the same thing and McCain enraged responds with far over-reaching hard line defense of his new platform scaring off moderates. Obama wins by 50% to 48%

2009 - Obama's assassination sparks the "race war of 09" Most Blacks are killed by a unified Latino/White army being massively outnumbered. As Whites attempt to rebuild America, Latinos ask for independence that in exchange for their help in the Negro genocide, that the Southwest be ceded to them. Hillary refuses. Violent crime in the west rises over 243% as the Latinos begin arming themselves for a violent revolution. Whites Exodus from the region and set up refugee camps in Kansas, and the now uninhabited regions of Louisiana.

2010 - President Hillary introduces and passes the "Obama's Legacy Bill" which fulfill all his campaign promises from removing us from Iraq, universal healthcare, expanding the patriot act, and the repeal of the second amendment. Troops deployed to the Southwest to maintain power. 87% are reported AWOL in 72 hours.

2011 - The Midwest unwilling to give up their guns for fear of Latinos, and the Southwest in a shambles, President Hilldog sends in the remainder of the Army just pulled from Iraq. Being mostly southerners join with the Midwest and refuse to enforce Hillary's commands. Mexicans strike a deal that they will aide the midwest/south in a fight for freedom in exchange for an autonomous Latino country in the former southwest. The two new countries issue dual Declarations of Independence. Hillary surrenders to her own Secretary of Defense at the knife point and recognizes the Midwest. Yet she refuses to cede Control New England and the eastern seaboard. America is divided into three countries. Middle America (Confederated States of Jesusland) North East America (New Oceana) and the South West (The Peoples Republic of Mexifornia)

2012 - In a last bid for power Hillary unleashes the Nuclear Arsenal of the ceded states via remote protocol "Megiddo". The Midwest Generals had long since changed the codes on their nukes, however the Latinos had abandoned the bases and did not know of their locations in their new homeland. Using the activation codes not yet changed 3 Nuclear warheads in the Southwest are detonated within their own bases outside Reno, east of Area 51 and North of Las Vegas. The Nevada desert is renamed "Mar del Cristal" or "The Sea of Glass" by the last few Latinos in existence. The Midwest agrees to aid Mexifornia in a last attempt to stop President Hillary before she uses any last nuclear weapons in her power. On Christmas eve, at 3:34 AM A massive arsenal of planes, tanks and even pickup trucks full of soldiers cross the Missouri river into a now abandoned Illinois and begin moving Northeast on intelligence that suggest Hillary has blockaded herself in Manhattan hoping to use the sea and civilians to her advantage.
