I swear, if Hillary runs I'll vote for Bush and then move to some other country. That would be just the dumbestthing the DLC could ever do. The right-wing base would mobilize against her like nothing we've ever seen. It would result in a landslide for Bush. Surely she's intelligent enough to realize that?

1. Won't happen....

The media runs these things whenever Rove decides they need another half million.

She said whe won't run. She won't run, period.

Ignore these stories.

4. Exactly: This is a typical republican fundraising tool

Anytime the repukes need to raise more cash they plant articles about how Hillary might run in order to raise more money.

5. And didn't Starapss just post something about Bush

having trouble raising money because of worries about Iraq? Bingo, just resurrect Hillary, and the money will pour into GOP coffers.

2. Geez Hillary isn't running and is NOT DLC

<sigh>

Please, don't fool yourself in ever thinking that Hillary Clinton is going to run at least in 2004. If she runs she'll alienate the entire state of New York (since she promised them she wouldn't run) and she would put herself through that same media circus that she had to deal with when her husband was president.

3. Please calm down

Hillary is not running. Pay no attention to any stories to the contrary. They are just baseless rumors. I'm dead serious. SHE IS NOT RUNNING. As you say, she's not stupid. (BTW, I hope you're kidding about voting for Bush.)

6. What is this?

This freeper isn't going to vote for any Democrat, and why the panic? If Hillary runs, I'll sure as hell vote for her and stump for her.

Unless -- of course -- she runs on the Republican ticket.

When did this stop being the DEMOCRATIC underground?

8. What? Are you saying this might be a troll?

At DU? No way!

heh.

7. How can you choose Bush over Hillary?

She is a sure winner against Bush and I can't see why ANY democrat would choose Bush over Hillary?

She won't run. The right loves to start rumors to make our current candidates look bad.
