HILL HINTING AT PREZ RUN
NY Post ^ | 9/1/06

Posted on 09/01/2006 7:41:22 AM PDT by areafiftyone

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.

Bring it on. We all know in our hearts that the Heiress Apparent, Hillary I, will soon make her glorious entrance on the national stage to claim the throne she believes is rightfully hers.

I, for one, cannot wait. The spectacle of the Mainstream Media (to the sound of fanfare being blown out of their oversized horns) tossing rose petals and bowing and scraping before the Lady Macbeth of Chappaqua is not to be missed. It may well be their final embarrassment before descending into meaninglessness. I will also enjoy inevitable foaming, gnashing of teeth, and other mad-dog symptomology amongst the Democrat Nut-Root activists, who mean to agitate for a Cromwell, rather than for a Queen. In the dark shadows of the Castle Kos, Sir Howie of Vermont will plot a coup, the only serious questions being who will be annointed as assassin, and will he succeed?

On the other side of the house will be the feckless, but generally sane Republicans, who will offer up someone, probably a current Governor of middling reputation, but one who will appear generally serious about threats from abroad and economic affairs at home. Not a Great Leader, perhaps, but a good person and plain speaker. The people will then be invited to choose between a soap opera and a soapbox standard-bearer. I’m betting that adults will choose wisely.

Whether or not she runs will been known soon or later

But that 'Stay tuned' indicates that she sure has something up her sleeve

I`ve done and will do everything in my power, but I live around a bunch of brain dead liberal idiots who think she is God. When HRH Rodham gave her "listening tour" during her first Senate bid, these idiots couldn`t get on their knees fast enough. "Speak to us Messiah!" Then you had all the lefty Hollywood wackos like Rosie O`Donnell giving Hillary celebration shows on Broadway, it`s ridiculous how she is worshipped here. If she runs for President though, I am prepared...Here is one poster I will be hanging around all over the place...

In other news, the California Pardons and Parole Board voted to release Sirhan Sirhan from prison in August 2008.

Take heed, GOP. I won't simply vote against her. You've got to run somebody who will take care of the domestic issues, like shutting down illegal immigration. I will no longer just vote for the lesser of two evils.

That is all.

Satan's spawn has being running for that post since the day the former President PERVERT took the oath!!

Spawn? Wait a minute. I've been going with Satan's hag. Should we co-ordinate our demonic nomenclature before the campaign gets going?

What's a "Maria?"
That's the new-look Hillary
out for the White House...


Hillary Clinton
"... this is a new-look Ms. Clinton who has her eyes focussed far beyond just better policing of the Internet. Her goal is nothing less than the White House itself.

"There is now no doubt that she will run for the Presidency in 2008. It is more a question of whether she can win. Her advisers are already conducting informal interviews with campaign staff and she is raising money.

"Most significantly of all, she has embarked on a transformation of her public image . . ."

A new-look Hillary Clinton
