I know the election came to an end yesterday, but I've been reading the papers today and I'm glad Kerry didn't get in. Now, in 2008, we get to see something really special happening. In 2008, it is Hillary Clinton's turn to run as the Democrat candidate for president. Now that is something well worth staying up 'till 6am GMT to watch, whether or not you are behind her... Personally, I think she's great and she'll make a good president. To be honest, why do you think she took Bill back? (ie, I want to see her bitchslapping the rest of the men in politics around the world ) |

I heard Rudy Giuliani (former New York City mayor) is running for the Republicans in '08. Just saying. Edit: We desperately need at least one SNL sketch of this happening. (edited by Cymoro on 11-04-04 06:32 PM) |

If Hilary Clinton ran against Rudolph Guliani, there would be absoloutly no possible way in the entire universe she would win. | |||

I have nothing against Hillary, but, she won't win in 2008 if she runs then. Why? 22% of people voted on morals this election and it shows this trend is rising. On grass root morality, women should know their place and to many, the presidency is no place for a woman. Note: This is not my view, but this is the vast majority of backward America's.

I would rather have him as president if the only other option was a Clinton. If she wins in 2008, Im going to college outside the US. | |||

I'm moving when I get older anyways... At least I think ... Seriously, I am tired of people having T.V. and the internet, but not knowing that the government lies to them on a daily basis. If Hilary wins, I will lose all faith in humanity, become a theologist, study the bible (and other things I guees), pinpoint the date of the end of the world, and declare that the world is going to end exactly one day before the end of the world. No one will believe me and all will die. YAY! |

Something you're forgetting when you are saying two days after an election who will be running in the next one: Those candidates you mentioned have to compete against others in their party before they get the nod. Hilary Clinton, as capable as she may be, will probably have to compete against some other worthy senators from states like... well, perhaps Iowa, and Washington... i.e. you can't assume she will get the nod, especially since she is a woman, and, whether we like it or not, that does have a political effect against her. Rudy will have to compete against several others as well, perhaps including Cheney, even though he will be 70+ years old by then. All Rudy has going for him is that he happened to be the mayor in New York at the time that 9/11 happened, so he was then perceived as a hero for some reason. Granted, during his time as mayor, crime went down in New York, but not a whole lot else happened. Who knows who might run for president for the Republicans? Hell, Tom Delay (another guy from Texas... but perhaps even more of a nutcase than Bush) could attempt to run, but I certainly hope he wouldn't get the nod. I know Delay's nephew... and he's just as much a nutcase as Tom is. "It is a necessity that every American owns a gun for their own protection as well as recreation." Yea, how many people do you think would want him on the ticket after hearing him say that? Well, his nephew told me anyway that he will attempt to become the president in 2008. His nephew also boldly predicted that he would win at least one primary. Anyway, too many possibilities for presidential candidates in 2008. Hell, Gore might even try to run again. But one way or another, I think it would be very hard for Hilary to get past the primaries and go on to get the nod for the Democratic Party. |

All of you are noting the negative effect Hilary's gender has, but what about the impact it'll have on female votes? Would it drive up female voter turnout? Would the vast majority of females vote based on gender alone? But no, I think she'd still lose. |

Cheney's not expected to go for it in 2008. His heart would likely play a rather important part in that decision. I think it's waaaaaay too early to figure out who's going to battle it out in 2008, but both sides have a lot of potential presidents and VP's. It's going to be extremely interesting, to say the least. |

I find some of the opinions expressed here quite upsetting... I can't see why everyone would want to move out when the US already has the worst case scenario President in office right now. We haven't even seen her policies yet. If Rudy did run for the Republican candidate then I could see a lot of people voting for him. However, running a country is very different to running a city. I also do note that because Clinton is a woman, there will be a political effect against her, but I'm sure it's not nearly as sizable as the factors counting for her. It is true that people have voted on the moral issues this time around, but in all honesty some of the state ballots (including the gay marriage ballot) shouldn't have gone to the public vote. This is simply because gay people are a minority and didn't stand a chance against being outnumbered by fundamentalist Christian organisations. I also would like to know why "a Clinton" is such a bad thing. While Bill Clinton was in office, he was a good President, despite his womanising. I'm looking forward to Hillary Clinton running for President. At least it would make the election more interesting than last time. |
