This "Oh be careful Hillary" bunk is just being thrown out there to lower expectations and draw out her potential opponents. Her handlers want to keep the spotlight off her as long as possible but they are working behind the scenes to derail competitors early in preparation for the coronation. The media are dupes...
P-p-p-p-please don't nominate Hillary for President.
Respectfully disagree, Victoria. Underestimating an opponent in war, on the football field, or in the political area is a path to defeat.
True, but her chances of wining are quite small. However, when we fight, we should fight to win regardless of who our opponents are... big or small, so in a sense I agree with you.
Bank on this.
Warner/Richardson
The RATS have to take at least two red states. Hillary will not bring the RATS more than what they have now. She cannot steal Florida or Ohio.
Warner and Richardson offer the RATS the best chance of getting NM and Virginia. NM and Virginia is 18 votes. That creates a tie. Anyone know what happens then?
OK. And after years of lovey dovey by the MSM she's only at 16% in the polls, and with a little bit of luck and more cutie patootie wide-eyed pictures of her, she'll probably gain another 10 – 15 points.

No way. even the MSM won't be that stupid to take a losing horse and throw it in the race, even Hillary. It would be easier for Hillary to take all the campaign cash, stay a Senator and live in her cozy little hamlet.
With Gore, the MSM thought they had something. Problem was RATS didn't break 50% in the previous two elections. With Kerry, it showed left wing dominance in an almost dead political party. They had to figure it out by now.
Liberalism is dead at the national level. Warner/Richardson is the RATS only hope to recapture the White House in 2008.
If she takes the money she has saved up over the past couple of years, she can run for re-election in NY for the rest of her life without having to raise one more penny. She need not ever kiss another butt again, as long as she lives.
That's gotta be tempting, don'tcha think?
"Stop Hillary" = "Fooling people that Hillary is a centrist"
Resurrect??!!!! Mr. Panetta, you are either being completely disingenuous or you really, really, need to get out more.
"That's gotta be tempting, don'tcha think?"
That's my point. As Senator she will never have to do another thing for her entire life except to show up to fundraisers, vote every once in a while and maybe get her name on some bills if there is another RAT President.
If she runs, she gives it all up and she already knows that she will not get 51% of the vote, especially when hubby, who came off much better than her only got 43% and 49% respectively. Unless she knows she can steal Florida or Ohio and get away with it, she won't win.
Then she will have to look at the Anti-Hillary stuff that will come out as well as the Barret Report and what has been redacted.
No, she will be Senator for life in NY. IMHO she is closer to a prison cell than she is the White House.
I've just never understood the Freepers who are so opposed to her nomination. As I've said numerous times in the past, she doesn't have a prayer of winning the presidency. Republicans could put up a one-legged lesbian tree frog and it would win.
I have a friend who has almost never voted for a Republican and she (yes, SHE) gets absolutely depressed at the thought of Clinton being nominated.
