Too many women went for Bush because they fell for that "Strong Leader" crap.

Fact is that Sen Clinton has more balls than *'s stuffed crotch could ever muster.

That's why the white male electorate in this country hates her. A lot of these guys can't handle a strong woman.

Clinton/Edwards in 2008

I'm beginning to feel it

1. Nah, no way
Iraq war vote, high disapproval ratings nationwide, and her damn husband just slammed dems and gays yet again. Forget it.

4. Bill was just being political. So get over it
If the Bushies can give us another Bush, we can come back with another Clinton

3. NOT IN MY NAME!
Will never happen. don't you get it? the security moms want woman to be barefoot and pregnant...they will never vote for her.

A philandering husband? Be serious.

Bill Richardson is our ONLY hope.

21. Interesting, that. Given all the former "vets" who wouldn't vote
for a vet.

5. Do you work in an office with females?
Have you noticed that they don't get along - especially if one is the boss? Females will be no more inclined to vote for Hillary. At least, not the ones that voted shrub.

18. Men do well working with women
Edited on Sat Nov-06-04 06:42 PM by notadmblnd
it's women that have problems working for women. It is sad to say, but I agree with that poster. WE ARE OUR OWN WORST ENEMIES!

Whether it is one of the female genders basic instincts of survival or somehing more simple, it has been my experience through all aspects of my life that females are more vicious than man eating tigers when it comes to competing with or being subordinate to another female. Sure many of us can get along in groups as long as we maintain our pecking orders, but let a strange person into the group and watch what happens.

12. I'm a WOMAN, and I work in an all-WOMAN office.
All of whom could be persuaded to vote for Hillary.

25. Apparently, I should have clarified that I am a woman
As the point was made in another post, the type of woman that were wrapped up in * being a "strong leader" are the type that are put off by woman like Hillary who are actually strong leaders.

8. While I respect Sen. Clinton
I think she does more simply advocating for the party without being a candidate. If she ran, there would be some pretty ugly things come up and again for the rehashing; some of which would have nothing to do with her but President Clinton. Is that fair? No, but it is the reality of the situation. Rove will certainly be running the next repuke campaign for president so this is a no-brainer.

As a Clarkie, I would love to see a Clark/Obama ticket!

Edwards and Kerry could be high ranking memebers of the cabinet for sure.

Clinton/Obama sounds great too.

We agreed that that was our second choice

9. Was the guy you talked to a Republican? If we want to ensure
that we lose 3 elections in a row, then by all means we should run Hillary. I'm not even sure I would vote for Hillary and I am a 61 year old woman. There's just something about her that doesn't ring true to me - can't put my finger on it, but the feeling is there.

13. He was no Repug
Edited on Sat Nov-06-04 06:21 PM by MrScorpio
He was another black guy who voted for Kerry and has tons of respect for Sen. Clinton.

If he was a Repug I would have told him where he could stick it.

16. Never happen...
you think the right wing was vicious against Kerry? It would be a ringing endorsement compared to what they'd do to Hillary.

Although we do need a fair election to happen first though.

23. I LOVE Hillary! She's bright, articulate and cunning and they're scared
shitless of her. Bring it on! (Although, I haven't given up hope for this election, yet.)
