HILLARY TO RUN IN 2004

Former US first lady Hillary Clinton is planning to enter the US Presidential race in 2004, reports say.

The New York Senator is expected to meet advisers - including her husband and ex-President Bill Clinton - next week to discuss the decision.

Mrs Clinton announced at the start of the summer that she would not compete for the Democratic nomination, even though she enjoyed huge support within the party.

She was expected to run for the White House in 2008.

Her rethink has been prompted by the sudden drop in support for President George Bush, whose problems in Iraq and with the economy have made him look vulnerable, according to veteran US political commentator Richard Reeves.

Just red meat for the masses.

... until then, fuck the speculation.

absolutely ruled out a run in 04. This is some sort of deflection but I haven't figured out who benefits.

...that you're gullible enough to believe a story from a Murdoch-mouthpiece like Sky, particularly when it's pushing the Right's meme-of-the-week.

I'm sticking with Dean

Dean in 2004

who would have guessed it?

More Repuke tricks to raise campaign funds...

This source is not a very credible one, and HRC has already denied this week she would run.

If Hillary thought that Bush could be beat she'd run but 2008 is looking like a better chance. What about Gov in 2006 instead of Senate? Pataki is done after this term and could even run for Senate.

Campaign portrays Bush as funding underdog"
 

        


Aug. 28, 2003  |  WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush's campaign --
expected to dwarf Democratic hopefuls by raising $200 million or more
for the primaries, with no GOP rival -- is appealing for donations by
portraying Bush as a fund-raising underdog who won't have enough cash to
defend himself against Democratic attacks.
"Democrats and their allies will have more money to spend attacking the
president during the nomination battle than we will have to defend him,"
campaign chairman Marc Racicot wrote in the fund-raising e-mail sent
Wednesday night. "If you need more convincing the president needs your
help, consider what the Democrats are saying. The race is just starting,
but their rhetoric is already red-hot."
Bush has set several fund-raising records, including the most collected
for a presidential primary and the most raised at a single event.

Congratulations Mr. Rove.
