I must disagree. They'll let GW have his four more, and Hillary will run against whoever we nominate in '08. Arranging accidents carries with it the possibility of being exposed and the consequences that go with that, as nominal as they may be for Democrats. Well, we don't have too long to wait to see.
No, I am actually being a pessimist. We'll be weaker when GW's eight years is over. She'll step in then. If I were an optimist, she'd never run.
I've heard this from loyal Dems. W might clear up the terrorist problem in 4 years. If he does, the Dem issues will be more promising. If he doesn't, we'll "throw the bums out".
I'm a pessimist. I think Kerry is the sacrificial goat so that hillary can run in '08.
