It stunk at the time but post 9/11, it will never fly with the soccer moms.

Don't be so sure about that. The soccer moms put her and her husband into the White House TWICE. Soccer moms are a dim-witted emotional bunch who respond well to polititians who are skilled at using children as props in campaign ads and pawns in any area of life. They have no loyalty and short memories. 9/11 will not help the republicans guaranty their vote.

show the people the post 9/11 Hillary eye roll in Bush's speech to Congress. That will not please the "soccer moms"

You're right about soccer moms being a bit dimwitted, but I think in a post 9/11 world, national security is paramount.

A friend of ours is dating Senator Leahy's daughter who was in medical school until she got horribly sick with cancer and is unable to leave either the hospital or her apartment when she is able to be home at all. Senator Leahy HATES the Clintons.

When we have a liberal Senator at Leahy's level who hates the Clintons (both of them), who does she have left besides the media?

That's quite a far-flung generalization about soccer moms. Some fit that description but many don't. And I disagree with you on the impact of 9-11. Parents do realize how their children could be affected. The biggest worry I have about terrorism is my kid. And she's in college.

But you just undercut your own point: the soccer moms were attracted to Clinton in part sexually because he was everything their husband wasn't---"exiting," "hip," "powerful," and playing around on his wife.

Hillary will receive benefit for NONE of those traits. I won't say no soccer moms will vote for her, but they will automatically assign many of those traits to Bush, not her.

Well the soccer moms of today are different from the ones that put the Clinton's in office,

With the main difference being more and more Soccer Moms are now from the More Conservative Gen-Xers instead of the self absorbed Liberal Baby Boomers that were the majority back in the 1990's.
