"Everyone is overlooking one very important point: SHE'S NOT QUALIFIED."

Well, yes, she's not qualified, but when it comes to the average, ignorant voter, I doubt that will matter much. Scharzenegger had no executive experience, and he won in a landslide, mostly I think because of his name recognition. Hillary certainly has name recognition.

I think she'll win the Dem nomination because of her star status, she controls all the money in the Dem party, and she probably controls the Dem media, too. All the Dems who are complaining she's moved to the right will be back with her when it counts. In their hearts, they know she's an out-and-out leftist, just like we know she's an out-and-out leftist.

Once she has the Dem nomination, then we have to have someone solid to beat her. Kerry was just as weak a candidate as Hillary may be on the national stage, and he came way too close to winning.

I agree it will take solid candidate and an inspired campaign to beat Hillary. She is a seasoned campaigner and with the Clinton organization behind her she will be formidable.

Not quite true. A lot of people don't give Arnold S. much credit for being an excellent businessman, and it's not just because of his pumping iron.
