If she does run - she will run while keeping her Senate seat just like Lieberman and Kerry did. She won't give up any power EVER! What we have to do is beat her out of her Senate seat first before we worry about her being president! If she wins NY State in a landslide there will be no stopping her! The only ones who don't want her to run besides Repubs are the Far Left. They hate her vote for the war and also her pandering back and forth from the left to the middle.
There may something you have overlooked about the liberals and it's standard throughout their party. When any liberal runs for office and the candidate starts making statements which sound even a little conservative, they are overlooked because they know they are lying.
The Far Left doesn't hate her, they understand what she HAS to do to win.
