FWIW here's my take on a possible scenario.

The current Democratic nine candidates beat each other's heads in for the next year. Primary victories are spread out amongst them,they enter the convention with none of them having enough delegates to win the nomination.

At this point we have a deadlocked convention,which after much backroom dealing and battling turns to....who else?

Hilary is offered the nomination and ,of course,accepts in a brilliantly managed media event on the conventions' climactic evening. Now she only has to run a two month campaign,which she can easily tapdance through.

The Republicans have not prepared to battle her and are offstride for most of the two months...Hilary wins a close one,largely aided by massive voter fraud in Illinois,New Jersey and New York,as well as some other formerly "safe" states.

Scary,huh?

Your #28 is a plausible scenario. I certainly don't see the Urban Garbage Girl as a person who likes going on the campaign trail and facing the public in contrast to those like Clinton and Bush who appear to relish pressing the flesh.

On another point "three years ago" the carpetbagger had filed with the FEC for NY Senator AND for Presidential campaigns. All the donations were placed under the senatorial heading.

I think your scenario is plausible but I believe she is more likely to wait until 2008. Either way she could win and it is very scary that we live in a country where people are that dumb to vote her in.

Someone that I've been hearing lately who may run in 2008 for the Republicans is Jeb Bush. I think he would probably make a good president. He's got a good demeanor and seems honest. His brother George also has a good demeanor and is honest, but they definitely have different personalities/styles.

I just can't face a possible Hillary presidency right now so I'm going to think positive thoughts about George Bush for 2004 and Jeb Bush for 2008 or some other yet to be named good guy for 2008 and I'm going to pray like H-E-double chopsticks that the devil spawn will never make it back to the Whitehouse.

Agree with your assessment. In reading the following:

"The country pretty much is divided 50-50, so I think we actually have a good chance. I think that it will come down to turnout."

I immediately thought suureee, your good chances are clearly calculated. Pay for votes, trash military ballots on and on. NYS is nothing but a welfare state so she's quaranteed that block, CA and NJ as well. Can't imagine she'd get flyover country but hey what's one more little challenge.

Hitlery probably has all the ballots printed and ready to go.
