See post 100. We both agree about Ron Paul.

Ron Paul is now their puppet.That will siphon off a good couple hundred votes.
They need someone with a little viability to pull this off. Michael Bloomberg, for example, who could also finance his own campaign.

Only if the GOP runs Guiliani.

I agree!!
If the Republicans are dumb enough to trash its traditional conservative base by nominating a liberal like Guiliani,,,,then we DESERVE Hillary.

Without help, no. The problem is, she might have help.

I don’t always point out glaring errors but I have to admit that using “fair” when one means “fare” is (dare I say?) offensive. It’s a lot like going out on a date without brushing your teeth, or wearing two different color shoes. Not atrocious, but it makes people wonder what qualifies that person and why they should be paying him valuable attention. A certain level of fastidiousness (not to mention literacy) ought to be attained before appearing in public or addressing same.
Nothing above should be interpreted to apply to freepers posting in the forum. ;)

Oh boy, but I can see Gore getting in and actually making a dent.

One more thing: Charles Krauthammer has pointed out that Nixon had strong negatives and had been prominent in the public eye for 16 years (the first nine of them in a presidential campaign and White House service) and won the 1968 election. Just like Hillary. And Nixon didn't have the press helping him.
I think Hillary is as vulnerable as a baby kangaroo, but she can pull this off if we screw this up. I believe the worst possible screwup would be nominating a New York lib to run against a New York lib, leaving our party divided and independents flipping a coin.

Correct. Say Giuliani takes the primary early and a conservative enters as an independent... that could be more than enough for her to win the election. Or McCain...or Bloomberg. Bloomberg would probably take votes from her, but nothing's certain.

Bubba cannot be VP either. The VP cannot be someone who has already fulfilled the presidential service limits.

She'll have to cater to him no matter what because if Hillary wasn't married to Bubba, we'd all be going "Hillary, who?" Ain't that the truth! When she screeches about her experience, I think 'What experience? Being Bill Clinton's wife?'

Hillary could have 90% negatives and the election would still be a squeaker.
To: Mr. Silverback
Bloomberg wouldn’t be a factor... but McCain would hurt Republican chances. But if a real conservative goes Independent... it's all over.

Rudy continues his long, slow and inevitable slide as more and more Republicans hear the 'whole' liberal Rudy story.Continues? Rudy's numbers among Republican primary voters dipped in April but have been consistent since May with only minor fluctuations. His numbers in the general election match-ups have been fairly consistent the last three months as well.
The only Republican who has been in continual decline during the past six months is McCain. Romney has been constant at about 12% and Thompson gained support quickly and then it has flattened out over the past two months to settle into second place 10-12 points behind Giuliani.

Actually, it’s disapproval. Five million young women with cellphones who would not otherwise vote have not been polled. Yes, she absolutley can win.

I would not vote for Giuliani over abortion. I am firm on that. Republicans can put forward a better candidate. Period.

Hillary selling tax increases?Hardly
She will be selling”middle class tax CUTS”
The tax increases will come AFTER she gets elected
To: xzins
America would soften toward Hillary, if, for example, her daughter were to tragically die and a grieving mother were portrayed. Even Hillary couldn't be that Machiavellian...could she? Wait...what was I thinking?

When did Colorado become a blue state? It has been trending toward the Democrats but Dubya carried it both times in the general election. When all the campaigning is over, I think most political analysts would be very surprised if Colorado went blue in 2008. W barely carried CO, and R's lost everything else. Even our western, rural county, where registered R's outnumbered D's 2 to 1, went D. The governor's D, the state senate is D, and they've wreaked a lot of damage in just the short 18 months they've been in. The Republican party has been shattered here, and appears unable to stop them, or pick up the pieces.
Just my humble opinion.
