According to a former Bill Clinton staffer, Senator Hilary Rodham Clinton is paying for some national polling the will guage her political and personal popularity while she makes her national television appearances and speaks about her book.

I'ts all part of a summer long decision making process about whether she should make a run for the 2004 Democratic Presidential Nomnation this time around,' says the Former Clinton staffer.

'Bill really wants her to do it.'

The rumours of Mrs. Clinton possibly entering the race are being taken seriously enough that some Democrats in New York and planting negative comments about her in the press in an attempt to temper her national political aspirations.

'She made a committment to this party, to this state, to serve as Senator for six years,' says a state party operative from Upstate New York.

'She and her people know full well what went into her getting the nomination. She should not back out on promises the she-and her husband--made to us. They should focus on the state and their constitutients.

Sounds to me like the Secret Service bought the place to beef up security around their crib. If so, it was bought with taxpayer money. Seems everything these grifters do costs the taxpayers money.

>Oh, bring it on!

Let's all just stay calm.
And let's all just remember --
Did anyone here

think Bill would achieve
two terms?! Did anyone here
think Hillary would

become senator?!
These people have a record
for fooling sane folk.

If she runs for prez,
we can not assume she'll flop.
The past is laughing...

sounds like somebody isn't in a hurry to move in...

Go to Westchester County parcel records and look it up. I've already done so but will leave it as an exercise to the reader.

The ownership looks fairly innocuous.

Don't suppose you could be talked into going down to the County Recorder or calling a realtor friend and getting the name of the new owners? Might be interesting.

Just following the Colin Powell model. He hawked his book, all the while pretending to be considering a run for president. Made him rich and I suspect her publishers think it will help them sell her book of lies.

My best guess before this development was that the Queen was going to depose Tom Daschle as Minority Leader before 'moving on..' but that may have changed based on the waek field of Democratic candidates and the fact that Gore isn't running

And just the other day Mrs. Krinton was saying she was too tired after all of those long Senate hearings to make a White House bid!

I know the names, too, and as far as I can determine..there's no connection....I was making the point that just possibly, folks might not want to move in proximate to the Clintons, if they have the opportunity to buy elsewhere....so the new owners might not want to have the prospect of living with 8 years ( God help us) of USSS in the back yard....FWIT..on the Clinton's actual dead end cul-de-sac..though none of the houses have come on the market..local R/E brokers are speculating that the prices could be down as much as 25%.....who would want to spend a million plus to live in a zoo....with cops and road blocks outside your front door...

Oh, I'd say she's had to make some major tradeoffs.
