Bank on It; Hitlery’s Running, Part 3

SPECULATION CONTINUES…WILL THE HILDABEAST RUN?

Dick Morris (who knows a thing or two about the Clintons, having
worked for them) seems to think it’s now or never for Hillary Clinton,
and suggests that if she wants to become president, she will join the
Kerry ticket as his vice presidential candidate.  It’s an interesting
take and nobody is better at noodling out these things than Morris. 
The speculation is never going to go away until Kerry makes his
choice.

Morris’ reasoning goes like this: if Kerry gets elected (May God in
heaven help us all) then he will run for re-election in 2008, which
shuts Hillary out from making her run. Then, in 2012, Kerry’s
vice-presidential choice would follow tradition and run for president,
shutting out Senator Clinton again.  At that rate, her next
opportunity would come in 2016, and if the aforementioned Democrat was
re-elected, that puts Hillary’s next shot at 2020, at which point she
would be 73 years old. (Can you imagine? Let’s not.)

Morris says if Kerry is anywhere close to Bush at convention time,
Hillary will go for the VP slot, and because the Clintons control the
Democratic party, Kerry will have to go along. Besides..who else is
Kerry going to get…and does anyone really care? Another
question…would Hillary be willing to sit on her hands for 8 years
when she really wants the #1 job?

Now I know that this whole scenario sounds vaguely familiar to you.
It should.  I presented it to you about a week ago.  Great minds think
alike.”

Ummm… Mr Boortz, Sir? Hello?  I’ve been saying this would happen, 6 months and more ago.
Here’s a column from lst November on the point. [1] Great minds read my weekly column, apparently. Glad to have you aboard. Thank you for Flying BitHead Air.
