Bring it on Hillary! ROFL!!

Wouldn't you just love to see Hilliary duking it out right down to the wire with...

AL SHARPTON!

... for the heart and soul of the DemocRATic party.

[concerned about politics]

PS....Sorry. Medication from surgery. Guess I should just quietly read ., eh?

[texasbluebell]

Makes me wonder what she has on Russert?

You know those missing fbi files that the clintons had for so long? They must have been making photocopies of the originals. Hillary's got plans for them.

I think it's time to put our money were our mouth (keyboard?) is. It's time for FReepers to form a groassroots PAC specifically devoted to vote fraud and fixing it. That means we would have to be organized and in place to vet the elections in 2002 and gather the "smoking guns" and get the message OUT THERE using journalist contacts and even advertising. Are ya with me, FReepers?

[stands2reason]

It might be more important to see who her VP would be. This creature hillary is either loved or hated to the extreme on either side. If she should "win" the White House, it's pretty likely that someone would at least try make a martyr out of her not long after the election.

It's suprising, though, noone ever made an attempt on Bill, unless you count that small plane. I was sure one of our backwoods crazies would try...mebbe he took less "chances" (according to SS anyway) than Ronnie?

[stands2reason]

This is exactly why the Republicans need to step up and decide who will follow in G.W.'s footsteps and be ready to run in -08...I don't see it happening in '04 but if Hillary tries to make a run, it would be nice to see a Bush beat a Clinton for a change! Payback is a _itch and so is Hillary!

My one (and only one) reservation about Cheney in 2004 is because the VP office has previously a national showcase position--kind of a getting-to-know-the-general population gig--and the next up-and-comer will lose out on that free publicity and "face time" the VP generally gets.

Please don't get me wrong--I think Cheney's doing a bang-up job and I absolutely adore the man (he reminds me "big time" of my father).

[what's up]

Sure I can. She and others eroded our security.

"Whether she runs or not will depend on how the whole "voting reform" thing works out. Don't think for a second that the dems didn't learn a few things in the 2000 elections mess. Next time around they will be much more skilled at voter fraud. They will make sure that any legislation that passes will NOT have any kind of real verification as to the ID of the voter. They will be handing out carton upon carton of smokes to the vagrants and bussing them to the polls. They will make sure that all of the illegal immigrants that they haul to the polls know how to spell "clinton." I'm serious. They almost got away with it last year in Florida."

Truer words were never spoken. The single thing that concerns me about a Hillary run for the Presidency is the potential for massive, systematic vote fraud in the very biggest urban areas to throw a sufficient number of big states into the dem. column and provide an Electoral College win for Hillary. With her persistant negatives, she couldn't come close to winning on her own, but with massive vote fraud (even worse than in 2000, as Orangedog says) Hillary wins.

"... millions of votes exist in this country among the depressed, angry, immoral, and insane that are Hillary's for the taking. I am only slightly kidding."

Depressingly true.

Yes, that would be awesome! Sharpton and the Pantsuit in a primary would be very entertaining.

Roaming back to this thread today to see additions and I see your reply.

Funny that you don't respond to my list of heinous things Hillary contributed in destroying our defenses.

If there had been a Republican in office in the 90's, defense would have been beefed up, not degraded. And terrorists would have been much more fearful to attack lower Manhattan because of it. Bin Laden would likely not have built his network up to such a degree.

Democrats cause wars...don't you know that by now? (Oh, pardoning those terrorists sent an encouraging signal that under the Clintons the US would allow terrorists room to operate. Missed that one last time. Also allowing Terrorist Arafat in the White House.)

If Hillary ever became President, there would undoubtedly be interminable war and more terrorists attacks on US soil.

Run Hillary Run

Reminds me of the bumper sticker one of our freepers put on the FRONT of his car.

While I agree that it would be dangerous to underestimate Hillary, we shouldn't overestimate her chances either. If you don't believe that she's a much weaker candidate than Gore, compare their results in New York. She got 9% fewer votes than Gore, and if you believe the exit polls, Gore outpolled her among almost every demographic group. Even New York women preferred Gore by 34 points and Hillary by "only" 21.

Unless she's significantly less despised in the rest of the country than she is in New York (which I doubt), or her popularity grows significantly in the next three years (possible but not likely), she would be a weak Presidential candidate.

[YankeeReb]

How do you know Hitlery's lying? Her lips are moving!!!

The first indication she's throwing her large rump in the ring is that she swore she isn't.

[what's up]

Health care is what she was in charge of in public view.

We all know that she was in charge of a LOT more than that behind the scenes after '93. We were told time and time again by the media as well as top Clinton aides how intricately she was involved in ALL aspects of policy. This must include defense policy as well which crumbled our military strength and encouraged our enemies.

OF COURSE she is partly responsible for the failures of the Clinton administration. As were all his top advisors.
