Of course she will run. She was always going to run. She can't wait until 2008. If the economy does not turn around (to the point where Joe Lunchpail agrees that it has) by June 2004, she will win the presidency.

You're exactly right. I've been saying since very early in Bush's administration that he was a one-termer, and the sick feeling in the pit of my stomach about her running has been strengthening.

I'm amazed when I see people on here talking about them wanting her to run, about how easy she'll be to beat, and shooting fish in a barrel and other such incredible nonsense. Do these people not remember '92, when everyone horse-laughed at the thought of Bill Clinton being president? Then he was elected, and the cry was, "He'll never be RE-elected! NO WAY!" And he was. And then the night before the 2000 election, they were trashing and laughing at all the polls showing how close the election would be. Bush got in, and has been an automatic shoe-in in their minds ever since. The lack of ability to muster even a modicum of objectivity is breathtaking.

When Hillary announces, the media will mount the biggest FREE propaganda campaign in the history of the world. Literally. And unless something drastic is going on next November that causes the nation to rally around Bush, she will win.

Good grief what an optimist you are. The witch is unbeatable? Then why should we even try?

You do remember Mr. Perot, I assume? Are we going to have another like that? I doubt it, not to mention we know what a monster she is. Have some faith in our side. The options are many.

I have no idea if she will win. I do know that she will be ruthless, that she will count on her husband to bring that solid core of Dems that continue to think he was one of the greatest Presidents of all time and that she will run the dirtiest campaign on record.

I put nothing past the woman. She is a genius at working and manipulating weaknesses, not of her opponent but of voters. She brings the entire concept of dysfunctional family to the campaign trail. Yes, the voters will know that she is a liar, that her experience in public office is short, that she stays married to an adulterer, etc. etc. etc. But somehow she hits a chord, just like the family who wants to believe that the alcoholic really means his last drink was his last drink. She gets people to act against their better judgement.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Exactly what I have bee warning here for months. I have the same sick feeling in my stomach that you do. A few months ago, I warned here that one bad debate, and Bush could blow it.

People here are political midgets, they do not know the trends of elections past. Even upto a couple of weeks before the election of 1980, Ronald Reagan and Carter were tied statistically. No one was sure who would win. Same story in 1984, up towards the very end polls should a close race. People here do not realize how races break away in the last week before the election because of our ill-informed electorate.
