Gosh, gosh, gosh...I hope the Republicans are dumb enough to run Palin
at the top of their ticket in 2012. She will be an unmitigated disaster.
I'd almost pay to see her in a debate with Hillary then watch it turn
into a catfight!
I bet Hillary doesn't run in 2012. If Obama is successful he will be
coronated by the democratic party in 2012. If he fails the democrats
will probably be "out" for 12 more years like what happened after
Carter. Hillary will not want to be a part of that. I bet she retires
in the senate ... not a bad gig.

My guess is that she is already planning a run for Governor of NY.
That would certainly strengthen her 2012 presidential aspirations - if
she still has any.

Hillary will never run for any other office except Senator of NY. She
can't chance being run through the wringer again. The best she can do is
trade on what she appears to have done for the State of NY.

She has done well as a NY senator, and is wildly popular there. She
could probably be governor if that's what she decides to do. She would
be VERY difficult to beat. I doubt she feels she's been run through
any wringers. Shes pretty tough, and I doubt there has been anyting
that has happened that would discourage her in the least. Her
situation in NY is entirely disconnected to how she is viewed
elsewhere.- Hide quoted text -

Yes, she is one of the very few NY senators to ever give a crap about
the rural southern tier part of the state. That part is quite
republican but they like her because of the business and farming
incentives she's created to help them.
