Hi. How have you been?

I'm not sure about New Yorkers. They may be incurable Democrats, but when it comes to literal survival, they are street-smart. They understand that post-9/11, national security must trump ALL ELSE.

In my view, hillary clinton -- BOTH clintons, in fact -- are not now -- and will NEVER be -- nationally electable...

Moreover, I suspect that even intractable Democrats will not support the national insecurity of a Democratic president.  They may not vote for Bush, but they won't vote for a Democrat, either...

This is also the view of my hairdresser ("only your hairdresser knows for sure" ), who takes the pulse of these normally fuzzyheaded miscreants monthly...

Says my hairdresser: "They HATE hillary. She CANNOT win another election... and Bush cannot LOSE."

BTW, she is apolitical, but ADORES Bush, Rumsfeld and Powell.

Q ERTY9

BUSH: "I will not wait on events, while dangers gather."

 

President's Remarks view

This country has many challenges. We will not deny, we will not ignore, we will not pass along our problems to other Congresses, to other presidents, and other generations. (Applause.) We will confront them with focus and clarity and courage...

Sending Americans into battle is the most profound decision a President can make. The technologies of war have changed; the risks and suffering of war have not. For the brave Americans who bear the risk, no victory is free from sorrow. This nation fights reluctantly, because we know the cost and we dread the days of mourning that always come.

We seek peace. We strive for peace. And sometimes peace must be defended. A future lived at the mercy of terrible threats is no peace at all. If war is forced upon us, we will fight in a just cause and by just means -- sparing, in every way we can, the innocent. And if war is forced upon us, we will fight with the full force and might of the United States military -- and we will prevail. (Applause.)

Unabashed Mia T bump!

From your hairdresser's mouth to God's ears: May Hillary Regina indeed be unelectable. I think so, as well, but...

The intersection point of interest is the bleed-down curve for the influence of the Goebbels media and the rising curve of awareness in the malleable middle of the electorate. I don't think we are at the point where the major left media have been trumped.

Hillary is running. She really has to rely on some demonic deus-ex-machina to pull off a victory, even with her 'repositioning' to support the military in Iraq, etc. Fred Barnes thinks she will try for '08. That's too far out for her. I suspect she will settle for a VPOTUS slot, finagled through the Dim's back rooms at the last minute. Her nightmare scenario is another Dim from the mob of wannabe's winning in '04. Her long knives are already out for the leaders of that pack. Factor in voter fraud, sabotage from the legions of Clintonoids still in government and a flood of propaganda from the Petah Jennings of the 4th estate unparalleled since 1939 and, well, she has a small, but not vanishingly small chance.

I am trusting that your hairdresser is a Prophet.
