At first I thought HRC would wait until late this year (between Turkey-Day and X-Mas) to jump into the race.

She can't wait that long, because she has to register for inclusion in the early primaries. I'd guess her entry would be predicated on how her campaign powwow next week evaluates the chances of the strong Dean and possible Clark entry. If they determine there are better than even odds for either of those, she'll enter - not to win, but to be sure no other Dem does thus messing up her 2008 bid. Odds of her resigning her Senate seat to run? Zilch and None.

I disagree. She's going to run. Giving up the Senate seat in non-issue IMO.

I agree she won't resign .. that isn't how she works.

Hillary could easily win a write-in in NH-- especially because 90% of the field would drop out the day she got in.
