HILL SWILL...
December 12, 2001
BY MICHAEL SNEED SUN TIMES COLUMNIST
Sneed hears former first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton is warming up to the idea of a presidential race in 2004.
Stay tuned..
However it also could backfire into a 50-0 state blowout like we have never seen before or since.
Don't be so sure. While of course GWB has the great advantage, we must remember that 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.
Hillary is bad on the stump, cold in public, clumsy in her political tactics, and arrogant with the press. But you can never count her out for one main reason: her unstoppable will to attain power by any means necessary. There is literally nothing she won't do, no line she won't cross, no law she won't break. And the press will tolerate her and pump her candidacy. For those reasons I believe Hillary will be a serious contender when she runs.
California, New York, New Jersey, Flordia (almost stolen in 2000), Michigan, Maryland, Mass., Penn.,Wisconsin, Conn.,IL, Minnesota, Washignton, Iowa, New Mexico, Maine, R.I., Vermont, Delaware=271
Correction. Anything named Clinton or Hillary is already a B.S. alert.
All of these things could apply to Al Gore as well and he didn't win. Hillary's greatest strength is an extremely sycophantic media but,as you say, she has some serious unlikability problems. Some of the stuff she pulled in New York simply won't play in Peoria. I hope she runs in '04, I will enjoy seeing her trounced.
September 11 did for me, pushed me over the edge from disliking and distrusting them into actively loathing them. I mean, between their blatant attention-grabbing antics and the revelations that he could have done much to prevent this but chose not to sully his illusion of "8 years of peace and prosperity," I am determined to carry on Barbara Olson's patriotic quest to expose them as the dangers to this country that they are.
Barbara and some 3000 other innocents died because he was too cowardly to spend some "political capital" on something that didn't directly affect him and because he was too selfish to do some things that might have shaved a few points off his poll numbers.
I have also come to believe that he and his administration purposely refused to even look at the terrorism info that the Sudanese government was practically begging to give us because it would have meant *doing* something about it, and he just didn't want to have to tell the sucker-moms that we might have to spend some of that prosperity on a nasty war and that we were NOT really as safe and at peace as they wanted so desperately to believe. Better to let the next president deal with festering terrorists and have the country wonder what happened to those vaunted "8 years of peace and prosperity" that the Sink Emperor "gave" us.
I don't mind dying for my country, but I truly resent the fact that I was nearly murdered (and almost lost my home) because Bill Clinton is a craven and cowardly ego maniac whose legacy will be 9/11 (and the 15-month low-grade war in Israel).
I don't wish him any physical harm -- to the contrary, I wish him a long and healthy life, one in which his true crimes will be unearthed and every person on this planet will know about his culpability regarding 9/11. I will be satisfied when they are universally scorned as the frauds that we've long known them to be.
Hitlery has only to crook her pinky finger, and the democRAT nomination is hers. After all, she and Bill own the democRATic party, and the establishment news media, which is a subsidiary of the party. Plus, Bill and Hitlery still have the dirty money, the secret police, and the FBI files.
My own guess is Hitlery would narrowly lose to Bush. But the RATS would run an all-out dirty, corrupt campaign, knowing that nothing bad happened to them after all the electoral fraud in 2000.
Hitlery has no downside for running in 2004 or 2008. It's either win-or-lose for her, and not win-or-jail. She can keep on trying until it works, because nobody will do anything except refer to her in worshipfull terms.
Bush and his people have shown the guts needed for a global war on terrorism. Whether they can face up to the klinonian democRATS and their captive media is another question. A klinton victory would be as disastrous for us as a Bin Laden win, and the two would be hard to tell apart.
