I thought Pataki pushed Cox out of the race to make room for Pataki's favorite (name escapes me) .... And then SHE dropped out.
Clinton will destroy the Dem Wimps in the primaries, by whatever means she thinks she can get away with. The Dems will have no choice but to flock to her banner in 08.
Yes....I can see why the people that would run her campaign might not want a taste of the medicine that they have been shoving at Bush for 6 years...
translation: she blew it big time with a typical liberal plantation remark...
Ms Clinton's modest success with voters in small-town upstate New York is taken by some as proof she can win over conservativesI personally am baffled by that success. Could someone who knows New York State politics please explain it to us?
Remember that the Dems torpedoed Dean for Kerry because they thought Dean was too risky.
I gotta hand it to them. The Dems are a very calculating bunch. Unfortunately for them, even their "moderates" are actually liberal nutcases.
Too many people already hate her, including a lot of swing voters and dems. I don't know if she'd be able to overcome that.
Yeah, but the old Ray-O-Vacs are running low.
What about the loud old drunk in the Senate? He's got family name ...
The guys in the smoke-filled rooms will never allow a Hillary nomination. And besides, Gore will dig up some dirt.
We would like to think so.
But then, we also thought so when she made that "eff'n jew b@$tards" remark just before she was elected senator from New York.
Go figure.
Why didn't Rudy keep his pants on and hand this woman her head six years ago? How 'bout that for starters?
The only people who are "polarized" are Marxists, atheists, feminists, and homosexuals.
The far left, who is battling moderates for control of the dem party don't like or want Hillary. The moderates are afraid she can't win. Us pubbies are hoping she is the dem nominee. But the MSM clearly wants one of two candidates....... Hillary or McCain.
The guys in the smoke-filled room are Slick and Beastie.
Beastwoman pulled Gore's plug with three or four phone calls in 2003, when he started scouting around for early money. He took a trip out to California to try to tap Slick's old Silicon Valley backers that Slick had courted so assiduously since 1991......Hillary called ahead and cut his water off before he even got there.
No Gore candidacy in 2004.
No Gore-or-anybody-else candidacy in 2008.
Dubya has to find a successor now. And it can't be Jeff, and Condi has bumped herself off (probably the right call: she's still too green, and hasn't been a state governor yet; she's probably waiting on Ahnuld to move on).
"She clearly understands there is a real need to re-establish some sense of bipartisan co-operation and has to ask herself: 'Could I be that kind of leader?'," he said. "
Translation - she understands that she must be careful about stabbing people in the back....
It doesn`t amount to much other than a story line as without the dem strongholds of NYC and Albany she still wouldn`t get far in the rest of the state.
What is that all about? Certainly not among anyone I know.
