Why Hillary WON'T run for re-election in 2006.......and a few other special surprise predictions....
one man's opinion.....

Posted on 06/19/2003 9:26:23 AM PDT by ken5050

Among the millions of words of pure unadulterated garbage written lately about all things Clintonian, it's very hard to find anything close to the truth, but in assessing Hillary's political strategy, as she pursues her goal of the WH in 2008, it is hard to come to any conclusion except that she will NOT run for re-election to the Senate in 2006, and there's a good chance that she might even resign from the Senate before that. So, for political insight that makes more sense than anything Dick Morris has every written, and better predictions than any astrologer, read on....

Hillary will annouce she is getting divorced in 2006, which opens her up for a Presidential run in 2008- and counting on all the sympathy votes.

I don't think she can wait til 08. She gets uglier every day.

04 is her one and only shot.
She can still manipulate most of the media, a power which is dwindling as rapidly as her (fairly)good looks.
As she gets older, uglier and ever more shrill, her media allies will get weaker and and ever more irrelevent.

There's still plenty that can go wrong for America between now and next year, and she and her harpies will do all they can to make things go wrong.

What about the contentions raised that should Hillary ever divorce Bill they will BOTH lose the "marriage protection" about testifying against each other, should that EVER become a reality?

I strongly disagree! There is nothing that Hillie can't do as a Senator that she can do out of office. I believe you err in making the logical assumption that she can't do justice to both. She doesn't care. Serve her whole term or not? She will lie and say anything the serves her purpose.

As a Senator, she can commend the evening news spotlight by just making an outrageous statement. Out of office, she drops down the priority list, much as Al Gore has.

Hillie would pledge to have twins if she thought it would do her any good and actually live up to her pledge if she thought that would also do her any good.

Major dem losses in 2004? Great! She can campaign all over the world (on the taxpayers buck) and not worry about missing anything important at work. Mother of the bride? As a Senator, Chelsea makes Time magazine's cover. As daughter of a former president, Chelsea might not get as much attention as one of the Bush twins might. Besides, when Chelsea does get married, I believe she will be between 3 and 4 months pregnant.

No, I disagree. Hillie will do only what maximizes her personal returns. Standing down doesn't do it for her political future or for any revenue streams that she and Willie may enjoy from her Senate position.

I have a problem with the "leave the Senate to heal" idea. How many people do we all know who go through a divorce, but function at work?

I think that would be perceived as a weakness, especially by feminists who believe women can "have it all".

Hildebeast cannot run and will not run for president and most likely will not run for the senate again. She has successfully insulated herself from all face-to-face critical questioning and would NOT be able to face up to questions like (1) Who killed Vince Foster? (2) Who hired Craig Livingston? (3) Exactly how did you turn ten thousand dollars into 100,000 dollars in that stock fraud? (4) Why did you steal all those items from the White House? (5) ___________(fill in the blanks). She writes her own questions and writes her own answers. David Letterman should be ashamed of himself for being pushed around by Her Royal HindAss. She might have gotten away with that senate-run fiasco against that light-weight competition, but I can't see her having to answer anything without total control of the Q&A. Impossible. We've let her and her pig of a husband be subjected to NO face-to-face criticism in over 10 years. She wouldn't be able to handle it. Much like that nonsensical book she didn't write: If she tells the truth, she goes to jail. If she divorces the Pig, they'll might be forced to testify against each other, and then they'd BOTH go to jail.

It always risky to make predictions ...... especially about the future!

I know exactly what you mean, why even some of my predictions about the past haven't been too accurate either ;-)

You have hit on a couple of real keys. In 1991-92, I never saw an economic downturn, but this one is very real. I'm one of those folks that was ravaged by the stock market/pension fiasco and I'm working a job paying less than half of my old one with no raise in sight and people telling me I need a master's degree.

I drink Diet Dr. Pepper and it just went up twenty cents a bottle. I'm a loyal Republican and a Bush guy to the core. But the economy is really lousy and the Crats have room to operate. We mustn't take that for granted.

Serve her whole term or not?

If she does not run for President in 2004, and then runs for reelection to the Senate in 2006, she will have fulfilled her promise to serve out the term she was elected to in 2000. There is nothing in her pledge to serve out her first term that implies she has to serve out her second term in the Senate. I also, think there will be little pressure for her to make any promise to not run for any other office during a second term.

What's wrong is that Bill Clinton is a political asset in the Democrap Party. Until someone wins the WH from the Democrap Party again, Bill Clinton will still be the big dog.

Correct. Bill is an enormous asset within the Democrat Party, and an enormous liability outside it. If I were Bill I might have uneasy thoughts about easy it would be for the widow of Bill Clinton to lay claim to most of his power within the Party, while discarding most of his baggage outside of it...

She won't run for reelection in 2006 because she will have become President in 2004.

I had never thought of that. She could be black widow spider.
