why would she risk getting into the 2004 race via some "extraordinary" means to run against an incumbent, when she has a clear shot at the 2008 run?

For 2008, that Hillary/Richardson ticket will be strong: the appeal to independent women, Hispanics. Don't underestimate it.

Do most people even think of him as hispanic? I wonder if he changed his name to Richardson from something else.

How about a Hillary/Ford ticket in 2008? Cover almost all the bases. White males make up only 22% of the Dem base.

She would have to run for reelection in NY - Guliani (sp) is supposed to be her challenger there he would win. She has no stellar reputation or legislation to point to, other than being co-crook in chief during their white House years.

A brokered convention with her as savior of the Dem Party means she will not have to answer a question, debate an issue or stand on a stage with DEM opponents. This keeps his mythical 'legacy' alive. Who could fault a Clinton for taking the easy, slithering way in?
