Ross Perot was great for him. The rest was icing on the cake.

Case in point: as a US Senate candidate, Hillary ran as own true liberal self----radical feminist, pro-abortion, pro-gay rights.
Yet she managed to get 1200 votes from upstate orthodox religious who declare their opposition to everything Hillary stands for.
How'd she do it?
Bill cravenly used the presidential pardon pen to reduce the sentences of four orthodox Hasidic who had looted Pell grants of millions of dollars.
Hillary has a thousand such tricks up her sleeve, and will use every one of them, when necessary.
Hillary will NOT be elected. I assure you.
Not suggesting she will be elected----just that she'll try everything and anything to get back into the WH.
She may try, but I'd be suprised if she even gets the democratic nomination. She is horrid on the campaign stump and sounds shrill and utterly ignorant.
She also has access to a very large and apparently informative set of FBI files.
Not I. If she was running for president of the NE, she might have a chance.
She is terrible on the campaign trail.
I don't think a 50 state "listening tour" will work in a presidential run. But you know that the MSM will try to run cover for her.
If she gets elected, I'll move to Australia and join with the yabbos in Sydney!!!!
LOL. Very true. But I agree with Rush on this. The Clinton's have NEVER been popular. Slick never won a majority. His party was decimated during his terms. They suck, and the majority of AMericans know it.
Triangulation probably won't work for her, but a return to the Left, continued bribery of the type you specified, and an appeal to the "peace mom" spirit latent among moderate and Republican women might get her over the top. The "first woman President" card will be huge in her favor - the media won't be able to stop gushing about her, and the cattle futures were a long time ago.
That's absolutely true.
However, if she runs, she will probably end up losing. However, we can't assume she will, we'll have a tough fight to defeat Her Heinous.
I agree with you. Let us not fall into 'Bush trap'. That is, people keep misunderestimating him and later have to pay the price for it.
She will get 100% cooperation from the MSM but the 7-by-24 glare of a presidential campaign will reveal her for the wannabe socialist dictator she is!
The MSM will try. Just as they are trying mightily to sabotage our success in Iraq. History has a way of steamrolling inconsequential people.
I ain't moving anywhere. I'm staying here in case a civil war breaks out. The good news is I know which side will win.
Well, there is only one side that is armed!
The other side may have some guns, but knowing how to use them is key. ;o)
