Britain's Scotsman reports that Hillary Clinton today was named favorite to win the next U.S. presidential vote in 2008 after George Bush won re-election to the White House.

The wife of former President Bill Clinton was installed at 5-to-1 odds by the betting agency Ladbrokes and 6-to-1 by William Hill to take over from Bush after his second term.

Bush was Ladbrokes' favorite for the whole of the election campaign. It's estimated that some 8 million pounds was spent wagering the U.S. election.

Ladbrokes has Hillary Clinton at 5-1 followed by former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani at 7-1 and Kerry running mate John Edwards at 8-1.

Newsmax did not waste much time getting to Hillary did they?

[mtbopfuyn]

So, who will we run against her? Rudy? Whomever it is, we need to start today.

[secret 4 agent]

I would say to the democrats Let's get it on!

[rivercat]

Bayh and Obama. That's my early prediction.

[areafiftyone]

Oh lord! That's going to be tough! We need will need a star player!

Hillary for 2008?! We should start preparing for fight right now! I think Giulliani/Schwarzenegger for GOP 2008. Can Schwarzi be a VP?

Two very ugly people both inside and outside.

[Clemenza]

Rudy is 1. Not remotely conservative and 2. OVERRATED!!!

I don't believe that harridan will ever be elected to the Presidency. I think the first woman President will be a Republican. Dittos on the first black President.

[1Old Pro]

Good, it's time to retire her.

[BoBToMatoE]

Forgot the barf alert. ;)

Rudy will be running against Hillary but I am not sure if its in 2006 or 2008. I am hoping he will knock her out of her Senate Seat in 2006 so she will be out of the limelight for 2 years at least!

[Alberta's Child]

These odds are idiotic.

Rudy Giuliani won't even run for president in 2008, and Edwards' political career is over.

[riri]

Watch her move to the right. The body count will start raising. She will begin to really court the hispanic vote.

[Tanniker Smith]

This. Country. Needs. A. Northeast. Liberal. President!

Oh, yeah, and a woman! THat'll make the diff between Kerry, Dukakis and Hillary.

Rudy Giuliani won't even run for president in 2008

Ummm I think he will. He has been hinting about it.

[goldstategop]

Hillary is going to shift rightwards and remake herself. She's a lot of things but being stupid ain't one of them. She Who Must Not Be Named has no chance of being elected President as a Marxist.

[kellynla]

Well I'll take all that action!
She'll be lucky to get reelected in '06!(I like Rudy to win her Senate seat)

Semper Fi,

I'd put my money on whatever Rove says.
