What's the Deal? Why does everyone want Hillary V. Condi in 08?
Is this what our nation has degraded to?

Hillary - How many Democrats are going to vote for her? 5?

Condi - Besides the fact that Kinda-lies-a-lot has said that she is NOT running. Everybody and his brother... and NewsMax is screaming that Condi will be running. Who in their right mind would vote for someone who's been little more than a PR Spokesperson? Who in their right mind would vote for a person who is also to blame for failing to prevent the 9/11 attacks?

1. CONDOLOSER RICE-A-RONI
Who would vote for someone who needs to see a dentist very badly.

8. Yes, condi will not run.
I've seen interviews with her to this effect. She really has no intention of running...not like "I'm going to avoid getting smeared before I run" but like "I want to get the hell out of this town and go back to teaching".

4. You might want to rethink this:
Who in their right mind would vote for someone who's been little more than a PR Spokesperson?

Think Reagan

Think Bush 43

Think Arnold....

6. That's scary
Condi has NO experience for today's world.

All she does is go around wagging her finger and making demands of foreign countries.

She'll make a Great President. :sarcasm:

5. who is EVERYBODY?

7. "Everyone?"
They each have their fans, I'm sure. And the media would like it as it would have the element of WWF theatrics they routinely and easily exploit to gather viewers and raise their ad rates.

I doubt that either will run. Maybe Clinton could win a primary, but she would lose badly in a general election. Rice, of course, couldn't win a single republican primary election for obvious reasons.

14. my observations are that the rw (aka msm) media is pushing hilary.
i think they are hoping that if they say it often enough, we might buy it. i really think this is a rove trick to get us to line up behind the candidate THEY want to run against.

17. I'm not part of that "everyone"
It's what the GOP wants. They're playing up Hillary as a candidate, I believe. I don't know any Dems who are advocating her as the '08 nominee.
