21. Double reverse psychology.
They want us to think that they want to face Obama so that we'll elect him but in reality, they want us to wonder why they want Obama so badly so that this must mean that they want Clinton. But because we can clearly see that they want us to support Obama so that in turn they make us scared of his ascendancy this will then in turn make us want to question our Obama support and therefore support Clinton, the candidate they wanted us to elect all along.

It's a fun parlor game; we should all play.
