For one thing, she not gone, she’ll never be gone. Until we have an election in November, and Hillary’s name isn’t on the ballot, then I’ll believe it. She could get nomination at the convention by convincing and/or blackmailing the super-delegates. Obama could get the nomination and suddenly quit due to family or health reasons. He may get hit by a bolt of lightning before November.
And if none of that happens, and Obama gets beaten by McCain, the day after the election, Hillary will start running for 2012.
She’ll need nothing short of a miracle to have any chance of winning in 2012. That and “arkanciding” Bill.
