When asked if she has decided to run for President, Senator Hillary Clinton has a stock response: She’s focused on her re-election fight here in New York in 2006.
But on Oct. 14, when Mrs. Clinton revealed her early 32-to-1 financial edge over her likely rival next year, another unspoken answer crystallized: Mrs. Clinton is already running for President, and next year’s election is just part of that campaign.
Campaign-finance regulations encourage members of Congress to store up money in Congressional accounts for use in a Presidential race. From Mrs. Clinton’s perspective, then, her prospective Republican opponent, Jeanine Pirro, is looking less like a threat and more like a fund-raising gimmick. Mrs. Clinton’s campaign, spread between New York and Washington, is staffed with veterans of Presidential campaigns and of the White House. And Mrs. Clinton’s national agenda is making no compromises with New York’s parochial needs.
“Hillary isn’t raising this money for a Senate race—let’s be honest,” said a Democratic political consultant who advised Senator John Kerry in his Presidential run last year. “The 2006 election is an excuse to develop the infrastructure of a Presidential campaign—to raise the money, do the thinking, do the planning, and do the work that’s involved in laying the groundwork for a Presidential run.”

Well it sure as hell wouldn't help, either.
No please!!! MAKE IT GO AWAY!!!
Bill & Hillary Clinton were sleeping one night at the White House. Hillary wakes up and starts shaking Bill to wake him up. "Bill, Bill wake
up."
Bill stays sleeping. Hillary continues, "Bill, Bill wake up!"
Bill finally wakes up and says, "What do you want?" Hillary responds, "I
have to go use the bathroom."
To which Bill says, "Please tell me you didn't wake me up just to tell me
you have to go to the bathroom."
Hillary says, "No, I just wanted to tell you to save my spot."
That's a scary headline! The word "War" should have been before "Chest". Yikes!
"Overflow from the thighs?"
Bingo!!! That's just toooooooooo funny :)
Nana
Anything to take my eyes off her shrill face!!!
"I thought perhaps she had gotten a breast enlargement. Have to admit, it wouldn't hurt!"
Wouldn't help either. Her only hope is a bag over her head!

Good grief, you'd be better off spraying yourself in the face with mace.
Ew.
I can't believe the Democrats are going to run another northeast liberal Kerry type. Hillary will lose as she is over-rated.
Besides, who wants Bill Clinton as our first man first lady.
Opps - headline should've read, "Hillary's Ass gets Bigger ...."
(So, is she going on "Nip/Tuck"?)
LOL....but I think that pic is enhanced a bit
