She could well be positioning herself as an opponent to Obama, which would be fine with me, but I don't think she is liberal enough to suit the Dem base.
And that's why she has a good chance of winning. The person that gets the votes of the Independents is who will win the next election, and with everything that has gone on, any person that will appeal to either the Republican base or the Democratic base will not win that Independent vote. People right now are totally fed up with both parties.
But as of right now, Obama's got one oar in the water and going nowhere. It's not often that a party will run a candidate against their own incumbent in a primary, but I think this time, the Dems will.
I don't think it will be Gore. He's been out of Washington for too long and there are many who think his outspoken views on global warming was a bit extreme. Leans a bit too far to the right. I really think Hilary has the best chance.
That lady has balls. Consider what she went through in the VERY public eye in regards to what happened with her husband and Monica, she stuck it out with him anyway amidst all of the obvious humiliation and in my opinion, did so not necessarily out of love but more because she did not want to lose her connection to Washington. A very cunning, committed and BALSY thing to do, and...............she pulled it off. Kind of shows me that when the lady wants something, she will go through hell to get it and all else be damned in regards to what others think. That's the kind of leader that can instill confidence and confidence is really what we need right now. We need someone who will steer the ship, and as of now, it seems to be rudderless.
I really had high hopes for Obama. He was dealt a bad hand from the beginning but he hasn't played it well. It's kind of like a football coach who takes over an underperforming team. He comes in and makes whatever changes he needs to make to create a winning team. At some point, the team needs to begin winning for the coach to retain his job. If he doesn't, he's fired and it matter not how many of his players get injured, or how many other things can befall a team. Either it begins to win under his watch, or it continues to lose.

BTW Bill C. would make an helluva Sec. Of State. For either side.
No shit. I never thought of that but what a great fucking idea. He would be an EXCELLENT Sec. of State. He's got the experience, he's got the looks, the charisma, the smarts AND great fucking negotiating skills. Hell, anyone who can question what the word "is" means will fucking question and challenge anything. Perfect, but will his ego let him work for his wife? That's the question.
