Move over Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle-Junior New York Senator Hillary Clinton is taking over.
At least that is the word from MSNBC Hardball host Chris Matthews, who said that in Tuesdays swearing in ceremony for the new Congress, Mrs. Clinton's Democratic colleagues made quite a show of kissing her ring.
It all happened out of camera range said Matthews who described the scene he witnessed to radio talker Don Imus on Thursday Morinings 'Imus in the Morning' political gabfest program.
Asking about the FOX News polls showing that Mrs. Clinton is the 2004 Presdiential Nomination frontrunner for the Democrats the MSNBC-TV talker responded 'You know what is impressive? Sitting in the Senate Press Gallery and looking down realizing that Hillary Clinton is the leader of the Senate Democrats.'
'She is the boss,' Matthews observed.
'Everyone was circling around her when they were having that big dispute over unemployment benefits..Hillary was calling the shots.'

From what I have heard, Pataki is possibly going to run against Hillary

My thoughts about satan are that he was a divider from the beginning. He divided families (Adam and Eve), religions (caused so many divisions there), countries (war, war, war) and he's divided our own nation into liberals and conservatives. He's definitely not a conservative (smile) but wants us divided so we're always fighting each other. Bill and Hillary are his minions here on earth, and they HAVE sold their souls to the devil (for a mess of potage). One day they will live to regret their choices but in the meantime WE have to suffer. There will be justice--it can't come too soon.

Hillary shouldn't be allowed to RUN for President,
because she already WAS our President!!!
http://clinton.senate.gov/about_hrc.html
Senator Clinton is recognized around the world as an
advocate for democracy, religious tolerance and human
rights, and as a champion for women and girls, emphasizing
access to education, economic opportunity, family planning
and women's right to choose. ***With her husband, former
President Clinton, she has worked for peace in Northern
Ireland, the Balkans and the Middle East.*** Her Vital
Voices program has brought women together in Asia, Africa,
Latin America, and Europe to encourage their increased
participation in economic and political decisions.

...CHRIS MATTHEWS also told DON IMUS on National Talk Radio that Former Congressman BOB DORNAN has such a big conservative following that he's THE One that should have his own National TV Talk Show.
...All this as MSNBC-TV tries everything it can to bring it's failing TV Talk Show Host DONOHUE out of the Ratings Deep Bottom.
GO Get'em BOB...

If she doesnt run as VP in 2004 first.With McCain running Third Party to help split the Conservative vote.
To: Just mythoughts
She may be building but I believe in miracles. A few more of her speeches read by patty to high school students and the varnish will fall off.Here's my prediction:
America won't allow Hillary Rodham to become our President. We're wise to her and with sites like Free Republic she'll never be able to endure the TRUTH.
However, the Clinton's have empowered EVIL world wide, and although we WILL be successful in stopping the SHE-BEAST, other evil will come upon this nation through other enemies (China, perhaps...North Korea)
But NEVER will Hillary Rodham Rule.
Thank God.
Fight the Good Fight.
To: lady lawyer
I honestly think the Clintons have made a deal with the Devil. How else can you explain their ascendency?They've ascended with the help of some friends.
Third Party Enablers
Perot 92, 96
McCain 04?
To: glorgau
If she has none of the above, how did she mange to get to this position of power? Don't underestimate her. It's the equivalent of whistling past the graveyard!You got it. NEVER underestimate Hillary Rodham Clinton.
The HELL she has planned for America
would make the Devil proud.
To: GraniteStateConservative
John McCain is no fan of the Clintons.Yes, but his hatred of Bush could make him suggestible to running as a Third Party Candidate in '04.
Odds are Hillary has her minnions already whispering in his ear.
To: Samurai_Jack
666 Exactly 666 months after Hitler committed suicide, Hillary Rodham Clinton was elected to the Senate.
666 months = 55 1/2 years

I don't understand. Why would the Democrats choose her to be their leader?
two words... FBI files
To: Joy Angela
"But NEVER will Hillary Rodham rule."
Using this word "rule" might be why Patty Murray assignment speech to high school students is to start preparing the masses for needing an American OBL to rule us. Hillary Bin Laden.
Note all leftist-Euro criticism of "Bush the dictator", and compare that to how Hillary is ruling the Dims. They are so twisted and I believe that the best method of saying NO to OBHillary is to stop VOTER FRAUD. Hopefuly the elected Republicans and "we" will put a stop to the Dims being able to win through fraud.
I do not see OBHillary being elected, however, I did not think that the "bill" would get elected a second term. I knew that America would pay a price for allowing that to happen a second time, hopefully enough of us are awake and alert for this to never happen again. I still hear in my head the day after day of how high his poll numbers were and how heart sick I was to think that Americans could not see the damage "he and she" were doing to this country. So if those same people who had no problem with what was going on then are having a hard time now they have no one but themselves to blame, hope they have learned a lesson.
To: Joy Angela
A McCain third-party challenge is good for Bush. He'd win the popular vote by about 40-35-25.
