Can someone explain why Hillary would be a front-runner for 2012 if she doesn’t make it this time? After all the negativity of this campaign, and the open dislike of many Democrats for the Clintons that has come out, is Hillary really likely to be the front runner in 2012, if McCain wins the general election this year?
I think the Klinton calculation is that they have damaged Obama to the point where he is un-electable. They are right about that.
Then they see 72 year old John McCain inheriting worst possible problems on every front - War, WOT, Economy, Housing, Healthcare and other Socialist Programs. They also know and see that he would also be inheriting dispirited and split Republican party, and VICIOUS and MERCILESS Demcorat Majorities in Congress. So not only Democrats would do everything in their Power to make sure he is a failed President, his own base would be doing everything in their power to trip him up.
None of the problems would be solved in that enviorment and can only get worse.
Here come the Klintons on their White Horse (paid for Chicomss) to rescue the Nation. They would couple of best sellers - “Nostalgia” and “I Told You SOs”.
My best guess.
Good points and questions.Gotta think the fear of the Clintons will be over.
4 more years is an eternity and ya know that would only mean 4 more years of tawdry tales and truths coming out all around about Bill& Hill.
