my money is on 18 Oct 04 for the announcement:

AP/March 18, 2002 - "In order to answer the urgent need to provide the American public with a real choice between candidates, I have with great reluctance agreed to accept the Democratic National Convention's summons to stand for election to the Office of the President of the United States. It's for the children. Really." said New York Senator Hillary Rodham, as she solemnly addressed an ecstatic gathering of supporters. "It takes a village to rule -ah, govern- a democracy like ours."
Meanwhile, the embattled Senator John Flipper Kerry, dogged by months of bad poll numbers stemming from vicious Republican-funded attack advertisements, was last seen in a bar on Friday night. Witnesses report that the despondent erstwhile candidate appeared depressed, and was overheard muttering something about Vince Foster.
Sen. Kerry's present whereabouts are not known.

I don't think they can switch [to Hitlary] as late as October. Presidential elections are state-by-state, not national. They would have to get 50 states (or at least enough for a majority) to violate various filing deadlines and to reprint ballots. Sure, they can do this in a corrupt 'Rat state like New Jersey. But not in anywhere enough states to win the election.

Shortly after the Republican convention, in late August, I suspect most states will have accepted the filings for the recognized political party electors and candidates names, in accordance with various state deadlines. From that point forward, the 'Rats are stuck.

If they switch to Hitlary, I predict they do it before the 'Rat convention, in late July. This would let them use the convention to rally the politicos around the new candidate.

Essentially, they need a corrupt Party to switch before the convention, but many corrupt states to switch much after.

A corrupt 'Rat party is much more likely in my view.
