Matthews agreed:

“If this story portends more press coverage and scrutiny, which I think it does. It takes-I think, big organizationnews organizations-are already assembling stories and deciding when to run them about Bill Clinton’s private life, if you will, and how it’s going to affect this campaign.”

Wow, could the press really be loading up to slime Bubba and torpdeo Hillary? I'm not buying it. I think this is a gentle way for the Left to get the word to Bill to keep it in his shorts or else.

They are stirring the pot re Republicans/Independents not to vote republican like in 1992 and 1996 to protest the evil GW.

BINGO!!!

Though I'm thinking they are mostly working on the Independents .. aka 3rd party

Folks need to start paying attending to what is REALLY going on

As a pinch hitter Al sucks.

For some reason, this came to mind after I read that.

I really, TRULY believe she will be our next president.
I tremble at the thought of that.
Kiss your money, property, rights, and moral absolutes goodbye if she makes it.
She is the "dark one"(or at least one of his minions).

Algore has a commonality with the media whores, and he did not set up shop in San Francisco just to make a dollar in building an intended mass media empire.

Now it depends on how much of a turn off the cut throat pretender Hillry is to the liberal masses, the dirt-worshipers are loyal to the death in the religion of environmentalism. Hillry needs this governmental sanctioning of the millions of illegals to stand a chance of winning in 2008.

So depends on how deeply algore believes himself to be destined to become president cause he does have the nature and nurture voters on his side, unlike the unnatural and no nurturing Hillry. Her shrieking is enough to break glass in their pristine places of meditation.

Unfortunately for Ms.Hillery, the nation is not nearly as dumb as it appears to her and the great minds who advise her.

Interesting analysis, but I think he starts off somewhat flawed. He initially credits Newsweek and Time with helping sabotage Dean to make the case that the lib media did Dean in.

But Dean was already toast. At least a week before the IA Dem caucus FOX News' Carl Cameron reported that despite all the positive hype about the 'power of Dean's internet campaign' (and there was a lot of that, far outweighing Time and Newsweek), Dean was losing badly on the ground.

Both Kerry and Edwards had invested much more time recruiting key people in IA who could get out actual voters on a cold IA day instead of people more comfortable sitting at home venting on the internet.

The gist of Cameron's insightful report (while most were hyping Dean) was that Kerry had recently had a rally with 4-5K people, Edwards had a rally with 1-2K and Dean was only able to draw a couple dozen.

That does not change the fact that the dem left moonbats are off their rocker over the Iraq war and are currently taking out their anger on Hillary, but IMHO comparing Hillary's current situation with Dean in 2004 is not valid.

So that's just my $2 (adjusted for inflation)

"I was just thinking that if the dem. candidate was algore, wouldn't it be really humorous if Jeb Bush beat him this time. Everytime that al ran for dogcatcher or milk monitor someone named Bush would come out of the trees and beat him. That would be good fun."

I think Prince Albert's crook-senator father had so groomed him that the presidency would be his that, like sKerry, he cannot to this day believe that he lost "to that (misunderestimated) idiot".

He KNOWS the presidency was meant to be his, as much as he knows it's his place to live like royalty while espousing sacrifice and state control of every facet of life for the commoners.

Don't be fooled by this

I, for one, am not. You nail it, though, this is old hat for the Clintoons. The real question in my mind is whether or not Bubba's galaxy sized ego will let his "wife" become POTUS. I think not. Clearly, if she were to be elected the fact that she would be the first woman POTUS would dramatically overshadow his "legacy". I really don't think Bubba is up to that......I look for Bubba to start pulling strings behind the scenes to tank Hitlary if she starts rising.....

I think the press will do everything to make Hillary look good and slaughter whoever is running against her. There are too many people in the media with an agenda and one of those agendas is a female President. I have no problem with a female President, just make it someone who actually cares about this country. I'm not convinced Hillary cares about this country in the least--she cares about them spelling her name right and advancing her liberal agenda.

I do think the left is upset with Hillary's stance on the war and they are delusional when it comes to global warming, but I can not for the life of me, in any scenario see Al Gore making a serious run at the White House.

Al Gore has gone off the deep end since losing in 2000. If the left seriously thinks Al Gore is a potential candidate they are more out of touch than I realized.

Hillary=a smarter Gore, a less shrill (believe it or not) Dean, and a Kerry with a heartbeat.

None of that is saying much, of course.

And worth every penny. Someone on Fox & Friends brought up some interesting statistics this morning. Forty to 45% of the voting public state they will never support Hillary for president. The norm for most candidates is around 20%.
