If a Democrat wins, I predict that Hillary Rodham Clinton will be nominated to be next Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, and it will be nearly impossible to stop her confirmation in the Senate - even if Republicans control the chamber.

C'mon.
Even if Democrats controlled the chamber they would need 60 votes for this to happen.
Hillary on the Spreme Court is never, ever gonna happen.

"Hillary on the Spreme Court is never, ever gonna happen."

I'm going through the FR archives, reading messages from 1999 about whether she would run for Senate. Here are some actual quotes (with screen names omitted) -

"She won't run."

"Doubtful scenario."

"she isn't going to run for any elective office."

"She's not going to accept anything that will downgrade her position from where she is now. Her ego will not allow her to be the "junior" senator, or the VP nominee while watching Tipper ascend to potential First Lady."

"Hillary is not running anywhere but to Brazil."

"I can't imagine Hillary has the nerve to try and go after power on her own."

"Not gonna happen. To much dirt is going to come out before then."

etc., etc.

There must be thousands of similar messages in the archives - from people who consistently underestimate Hillary's relentless quest for absolute power.
