Good theory. I think Bill “thinks” he wants her to be Pres., and “thinks” he might somehow have another shot at power, but also knows exactly what you said, that she would do more than hurl ashtrays if he in any way compromised her coronation.
With Hill as Prez and a Democratic Congress, watch for the Dems to change the two term limit.
My wife is convinced that Hill will pick Bill as VP. I disagree with her (because I read somewhere that it is illegal since if Hill passed away or stepped down, Bill would be President again, violating the law). I don’t know if this has been confirmed or not.
But Hill will likely pick Bill Richardson to consolidate the Hispanic vote. Or a Anglo male that is non-threatening (or an Asian Democrat to capture that demographiic).
The Anglos have worked hard to erase race as an issue in the county. Its too bad that the Latino and Black communities still cling to racial boundaries for the most part. Hence, this election will be about race pandoring.
This is why the Repubs are probably dead in this election.
