Young Republicans relish Hillary Clinton candidacy
I still find it interesting that the moral young Republicans chose Las Vegas (what happens here, stays here) as the location for their little uptight gathering ...of course, Karl Rove and Laura Bush attended the grand opening of Wynn Resorts Casino a couple of months ago down there so maybe it's a Republican hangout?

July 9, 2005

Young Republicans have one thing to say to U.S. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton about a possible 2008 presidential bid: Bring it on.

Members attending the group's biennial convention at Mandalay Bay said it's not too early to talk about how to keep a Republican in the White House, and they believe Clinton could help them win again if she were on the Democratic ticket.

"I think it's very likely the senator from New York will run," said Rick Veenstra, 27, chairman of the Illinois Young Republicans. "She'll bring a lot of people to the polls. The name Clinton before a number of Republicans is akin to waving a red flag."

Convention guests attended several panels and training seminars on Thursday, including one on how to mobilize young voters by "keeping it positive not partisan." They were told the only demographic President Bush lost to Sen. John Kerry in 2004 was those ages 18 to 29.

"The name Clinton before a number of Republicans is akin to waving a red flag."


They're totally right. I have no problem with her but the right hates her with a passion. God I hope she doens't run.

4. Have they stopped to consider the fact that if we know they
desperately want her to be the candidate, that is all the more reason for us to nominate someone else?

Dopes.
