It depends on the incentive.

Hillary's path to the White House???
Ya (She) can't get there from here.

This is not that wild of a scenario. Believe it or not, it is how Arnold Schwarzenegger won California. I am not as confident that he would have survived a bruising, 9-month campaign and the mud and cr-p that the Dems would have hurled at him. But he did survive an intense 35-day campaign -- even as the Dems trotted our Hollywood starlets and other babes to denounce him.

It's a scenario, to be sure, but I don't doubt that Hillary has a half dozen strategies, and this might be one of them.

[EQAndyBuzz]

Amazing. Everyone that has posted about Hillary to the Green room over the last 3 months have told the same story.

Old news.

why did the theme music from the Omen just pop into my head?

[ravingnutter]

Ahem....only one problem with that scenario...

04/19/04 - The Federal Election Commission has opened a formal probe into a star-studded Aug. 12, 2000 Hollywood fundraiser for then-first lady Hillary Clinton's Senate campaign, Fox News Channel reported on Sunday. And some say the development is at least partly responsible for Sen. Clinton's claim that she's not interested in joining John Kerry's presidential ticket.

The allegations themselves are not new: Two of the event's organizers, Hollywood producer Peter Paul and charity fundraiser Aaron Tonken, have detailed a series of transactions undertaken in conjunction with Hillary's campaign that could violate FEC regulations, with Paul charging that the campaign failed to report nearly $2 million he spent producing the event.

But months before Paul was returned to the U.S. to stand trial in the stock case, Hollywood fundraiser Aaron Tonken began cooperating with federal probers. Tonken has said that he's a star witness against the Clintons in a federal grand jury probe in New York into Mr. Clinton's Marc Rich pardon - and has been cooperating with the U.S. attorney in Los Angeles who's probing his fundraising activities.

FEC Heat Hurts Hillary's VP Chances

This will be compounded by the fact that Marc Rich has just been connected to the UN oil for food scandal.

Background:

New York Sen. Hillary Clinton surely hopes that history isn't repeating itself with the raid conducted by the FBI last month on another warehouse; this one chock full of documents from her 2000 Senatorial campaign.

"The documents were seized in a May 30 raid of a California storage facility containing documents of Peter Paul, the entrepreneur who funded Hillary Clinton's Senate campaign with over $2 million dollars in direct, in-kind contributions which were never reported by Hillary Clinton or her Senate campaign, as required by law," revealed the public interest law firm Judicial Watch in a press release late last week.

FBI Raids Hillary's Warehouse in Whitewater Deja Vu

The Bush administration has quietly done an about-face on allegations that New York Sen. Hillary Clinton broke campaign finance laws in 2000 - with the Justice Department preparing to extradite one-time Clinton fund-raiser Peter Paul to the U.S. as part of a plea deal for his testimony. The sudden action on Paul's case comes just weeks after reports surfaced that former Hollywood fund-raiser Aaron Tonken has supplied damaging testimony about Hillary Clinton's fund-raising practices.

"I'm a star witness against President and Mrs. Clinton," Tonken claimed in a recent report on his case in Vanity Fair magazine, explaining that prosecutors wanted his testimony about" "fundraising activities that I've done on behalf of the Clintons." The exact nature of Tonken's allegations against Sen. Clinton remains secret, the magazine said. But the celebrity moneyman is known to have been involved in the August 2000 fund raiser that is at the heart of Peter Paul's allegations.

The End of Hillary Clinton

Peter F. Paul, the flamboyant Hollywood entrepreneur who says Hillary Rodham Clinton has hidden almost $2 million of in-kind contributions he made to her campaign in 2000, is back from Brazil and promising to raise a ruckus about the New York senator as he fights bizarre securities and bank-fraud charges on which he's been indicted. Aaron Tonken, a political operative in Hollywood and a former protégé of Paul under indictment for a variety of alleged sharp deals with the rich and famous, also is promising to tell everything he knows about behind-the-scenes shenanigans of Clinton and many others.

Clintons' Fall Guy May Turn the Tables (Peter Paul)

Mr. Paul has substantial, documentary evidence detailing his close relationship with the Clintons and his funding of the Hollywood tribute, including cancelled checks, hand-written thank you notes from the Clintons, and photographs. Also named in the complaint is Clinton fundraiser David Rosen, Clinton friend James Levin, and Hollywood celebrity fundraiser Aaron Tonken, who currently is under criminal investigation for his role in other Hollywood fundraisers. As a result of Mr. Paul’s disclosures, federal authorities have launched an investigation into the Clintons and other matters. Mr. Paul, who is facing alleged (and related) stock and bank fraud charges, remains eager to cooperate with federal authorities.

Where's the Green Room? Not like I need any more web sites to read.

Thomas Lifson makes sense, unfortunately. But I don't think America would put Hill in power in time of war, despite her eating turkey with the troops. Plus, by her own admission, she helped pick Bill's cabinet when he was pres. Les Aspin, as sec. of defense, who was saving the tanks for Bosnia, and that's why the rangers had no backup in Somalia...Jocelyn Elders as Surgeon General, Janet Reno, and on and on. Let's not forget the sainted sec. of state, Madelyn Alldumb, after that forgettable clothes horse, Warren whatshisname. Hill's track record is abysmal.

[hershey]

Kerry's getting the hook, no doubt about it.

[ride the whirlwind]

Warren whatshisname..... W. Christopher, as charasmatic as John Kerry.
I didn't respect William Cohen as Defense Secretary then either.

Dear 'ride the whirlwind':

BUMP !!!

I do trust that broom is meant for her heinous....

Dear 'ride the whirlwind' -

RE: "I do trust that broom is meant for her heinous...."

Yes, CERTAINLY!!!

Sorry ...I guess you get that a lot, huh? {...grin}

"No less an authority than Dick Morris ..."

That's all I needed to know heavy duty tinfoil was required. Morriss has about as much knowledge as the kittycat he shares a name with. His whole reason for saying anything is based on his hatred for the Clintons and the hunger of a lot of conservatives to have their hatred feed. He is a shill of the worst kind & hasn't been right about anything for years.

[Bella]

She's not going to go anywhere.

[Remember_Salamis]

not if she's on the ticket. THe same as if a candidate wre to die after the onvention and before the election, the VP candidate would move to the top of the ticket. What if kerry's down by 15-20 points at convention time???

[EQAndyBuzz]

When you appear on a TV show and are next to go on, you go to the green room. Call it the waiting room for lack of a better definition.

So when we say, "Hillary to the green room" we are basically announcing that she is waiting in the wings.

Hope that helped.
