Jersey politics have smelled for a long time.
Hillary "won" the N.Y. Senate seat through massive fraud and corruption.
A NATIONAL ELECTION IS SOMETHING QUITE DIFFERENT!
Whilst I don't doubt,in the least,how evil,vile,corrupt,and underhanded the Clintons are,they have lost a lot of their power,they do NOT still "own" the DNC,Drudge,talk radio,cable news,the Internet,and yes,even the network news (though most there would cheer)would NOT roll over and take her anointment without lots of condemnation and dirt throwing.
This nation is still 1/2 and 1/2,with a rather low level of indies.It is dead certain, that even 1/2 of the "purist"/MORE CONSERVATIVE THAN THOU group would instantly become crawl over broken glass topped burning lava,to vote for President Bush,should the tinfoil scenario come to pass.
