Well, duh...

Only my opinion, but the next President will be Hillary Clinton. Any Republican is tarnished by the Iraqi conflict. I voted for her husband and was reasonably satisfied in every area but abortion. He was fiscally conservative and adept at statesmanship.

There are Democrats I like better than Hillary, but she is vastly preferable to anything the GOP will nominate.

I was somewhat annoyed by her refusal to state that shew would have the US out of Iraq by the end of her term if elected.
I would think four years should be enough.

Hillary knows she has it wrapped up, as long as she makes no major mistakes.

What if "he" (Bill) does?

He probably won't. He hasn't already.

Bill Clinton is a shrewd politiican. And a successful one. Love him or hate him; you still need to admire his success.

He screwed up royally in Somalia, but did not repeat that mistake. CA's typcially make stupid decisions. Unfortunate but true. The key is whether they CONTINUE to do so; e.g. have they learned from their errors?

I was thinking more of is potential personal indescretions....as possibly dragging Hillary down.

Unfortunatley, that is not really much of an issue anymore.

You don't think so?  You don't think if Bill pulls another Broaddrick, she won't be hurt politically?

bill is not known to make the same mistake twice
in fact he`s famouse for learning from them
at the begining of his carrer he had massive campaign failures and took notes on them.
his intelligence is one thing thats very hard to disprove and people have tried.

Bill is getting too old to be rowdy and raunchy.

How could anyone favor the Republican healthcare plan? They don't have one.
They want Big Pharma to continue raping the consumers. They ARE Big Pharma.
