Clinton a 50% to 28% lead over Pirro

Pirro hasn't even started campaigning yet.
Either Mrs. Clinton agrees to a full term, or she won't win.

Mrs. Clinton is between a rock and a hard place. If she runs, she has to promise to fill a 6 year term, otherwise, she'll lose. It'll prove to the people in NY she was just using them.
If she quits the Senate, it proves she lied to the people of NY about using them as a stepping stone to the presidency.

Either way, if she tries to run in 2008, she's a liar just like her husband the rapist - Bill Clinton.

You wrote, "Either Mrs. Clinton agrees to a full term, or she won't win."

And then you went on to explain this position more fully, to your credit.

It doesn't follow that Hillary is bound by promise or oath to fulfill a six-year Senate term in lieu of a run for the Presidency. Senators run for the Presidency in every election without worrying overmuch about backlash from their constituency for doing so. Lieberman, for example, ran for both Vice President and Senator during the 2000 election (which tells you how much hope he had in Dem chances that year).

I like what I've seen of Pirro, and it's good she's getting some national exposure, but unless Hillary shoots a puppy dead on live national television, she's keeping her Senate seat.
