Hillary Clinton is done. You can stick a fork in her. There's virtually no chance that woman will ever be in the White House other than as an invited guest of the President.

Hopefully those invitations will be few and far between.

Hillary Can't Beat 50% Against Allen or Romney

Is it just me, or does anyone else enjoy seeing the words "Hillary" and "beat" in the same sentence? Not that I would wish a beating upon anyone, mind you.

There are not enough liberals in this country to get Hillary elected President. She's dead in the South. Kerry barely captured Fairfax County, Virginia. She Who Must Not Be Named would reverse even those tiny gains in a heartbeat. The Democrats have to decide between having a 100% liberal candidate as their standard-bearer or someone more moderate who's electable. And if its Hillary, no, it will not be enough to end the GOP hold on the White House in 2009.

All she needs is 40 to 44% or so and she will run. They are great campaigners and they could close the gap rapidly.

[goldstategop]

She's guaranteed to get at least 45%. I doubt she will get as many votes as Kerry because she's a more polarizing figure and this is a big plus - Bush will not be on the ballot then.

The klinton trashbags usually gin up a 3rd party nut to split the vote. Only chance.

[ChiMark]

Hillary oozes arrogance. No way can she be a charismatic
contender. She's unlikable, has no original ideas, uninspiring
with bad legs.

NY did elect her Senator, though. Is the heartland as stupid?

LOL, not necessarily in that order.

...except for the really left-wing types...

Notice how any story about "right-wing types" would have used knee-jerk libspeak like "extreme" or "radical" rather than the milder "really".

From reading posts here, on FR, they may have hope.

...and Al Gore essentially tied almost stole it in 2000.

Fixed it.

If Mitt Romney a RINO virtually unknown outside of the NE can run a mere 11 points behind someone as well known as Hillary Clinton shows that millions of Americans despise her.

[SDGOP]

Interesting that romney runs much farther behind. I suspect its because republicans hear 'governor of massachusets'.

Most romney fans forget that his will be a big hurdle to overcome.

[SDGOP]

Ping..

She may have hope if she gins up the third party votes and fools everyone else into thinking she's moderated, just like her repugnant husband.

Blast from the past, Jan, 2002, Fortune Magazine: The magazine says the ascendancy of Gore and Daschle relegates Sens. John Kerry of Massachusetts and John Edwards of N.C. "to the second tier of Democratic hopefuls." Stay tuned.

I don't think anyone's ever got it right as to who will emerge as the front runner two years out with anything other than blind luck. For all the whispers coming from Hilary's camp, it means nothing, not at this time.

I don't know. Don't forget Slick Willie never got 50% of the vote and he got elected twice. The Clintons will be working overtime to create a third party movement for 2008.
