Nah... to late for Hillary. The party would completely implode in an internal battle to replace Kerry at this late stage. But I think I'm becoming more convinced that Dubya is going to win this thing going away.

I don't know, kjam22. During the "will she run in 2004 or 2008" threads there would always be a poster or two who'd say she had it in the bag for 2004. Absolutely, she had it in the bag. Pre-convention, before Kerry got the nod, "brokered convention" was flying around. I'm wondering if the internal battle has been there for some time (old school-Kerry/Kennedy;new school-Clintons/McAuliffe) and just simmering as HRC, WJC, etc hijack the Democrat Party. I'm starting to lean towards those few posters who said she had it in the bag. The Kerry campaign is disastrous for the Dems and someone's gotta be a hero.....I really slept very poorly...

It would not have surprised me to see the beast make a last minute play for the spot... but last minute was before the convention nominated Kerry. I think if Kerry pulled out of the thing now... you'd end up with a number of dem candidates on the ballot and none of them in all of the states. Unless it defaulted to Edwards.

Toricelli/Lautenberg.

Wellstone/Mondale.

We're staring to see it with McGreevey.

Who still controls The Party? Who still commands the soccer moms? Who might the Party pick who can still pull off a win against Bush?

BEHOLD THE MESSIAH!
