I think Newt underestimates her chances.

I put her chances at better than 50%, and that's if she ran in 2004. Reasons are as follows:

1) More immigrants (legal and illegal) who come from statist countries. Whoever the RATS nominate will appeal to this group.

2) Voter fraud in the metropolitan cesspools.

3) A lot of women will vote for the "first woman to run for president".

4) A sluggish economy with rising unemployment.

5) A conservative base which is disatisfied because of Bush's stances on guns, globalization, and increased gov't. A lot of folks are going to sit at home in 2004 unless the trend is reversed.

Dick Morris says this is the reason that any Democrat will be the front-runner in '08.

for 2004, she is getting what she wants with a likely poor showing by the Dems. That gives her a chance to assume the "savior" role in 2008, which she very much wants. she is playing it all for 2008. Its gonna be close.

I agree with your reasoning, and, as another poster said, she has the Media squarely behind her, and she will get a ton of the female vote, simply because she is a woman. Better than 50% is what I do not agree with. I think her chances are much better than 50%. I wish I could be more positive, but Hillary will be president, if not in 04, than surely in 08. Unfortunately, we might have to get used to saying President Clinton again. I hate this, but I am fearful it really will happen.
