HILL HINTING AT PREZ RUN

ALBANY - Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton said yesterday she hopes America is ready for a female president - and gave her strongest hint yet at whom she has in mind when she blurted out, “Stay tuned.” Clinton, who was on a three-day upstate New York campaign swing, made the provocative comment to ABC's "Nightline," which reaches a national audience.
Asked if America is ready for its first female chief executive, Clinton responded, "It just depends on when and if that happens. Stay tuned."
Her coy remark immediately renewed speculation that the former first lady, heading to an easy re-election victory in November, will do what polls show Democrats want: become their standard-bearer for president in 2008.
" 'Stay tuned' is quite a bit further along than Hillary has been up to this point," said Marist College polling director Lee Miringoff.
" 'Stay tuned' is, in fact, close to a hint at a coming attraction that may be happening right around the corner."
Republican political consultant Brendan Quinn said, " 'Stay tuned' sounds like Mrs. Clinton is looking past her Senate race this year and is already running for president."
Clinton's comments created enough of a storm that her husband made a surprise late appearance with her to try to tamp down the flames.
"She hasn't made up her mind [about a run in 2008] and I know that's the truth," said the former president, adding his wife was doing the right thing by focusing on her re-election race.
The Clintons appeared at a farm outside of upstate Cazenovia.

...she hopes America is ready for a female president...But America can't afford a Hillary presidency.
I'm unable to see the likes of a Margaret Thatcher on the horizon.
Tancredo will do nicely.

If the American voters are ready for a female, it sure isn't ready for a dike.
