Will a Hillary presidency be a two for one?
I remember when Big Dog was running, he said that with Hillary, the American people would get two for the price of one. Do you think that a lot of Americans feel if Hillary were elected president, it would be more or less a Bill Clinton third term? And if so, would that idea bring her more votes? Just curious because I've never seen this topic discussed.

1. I would hope so.
As far to the right as Clinton was, I believe Hillary to be a total DINO. Clinton's involvement would be a plus.

6. For the same reasons they hate Clinton.
her success, as well as the false propagation among right-wingers of the meme that she is a socialist (she's not - "Hillarycare" was a HUGE corporate giveaway to the private insurance industry) and a "feminazi" (she's decidedly not - they just call any woman who isn't totally Stepfodized that.)

Oh yeah and she "murdered her lover, Vince Foster" even though she's a bulldyke.

2. She was as close to the Presidency as she is ever going to get.
She is too divisive to the far left and far right. We have many better choices. I respect the job she is going in NY but......

Bill has the experience and the personality to really be a force for world diplomacy.

Imagine him being able to wing all over, shaking hands and making sweet with everyone without having to worry about the running of the govt.


Both the Clintons are a little dino leaning but compared to what we have been stuck with for the last 5 years they would be virtual socialists.

4. She is intelligent to take a former President's advice - unlike Bush who d
did not consult a former president (his father) before he took our nation to war.

I think Hillary will be her own person, but our nation will profit by her having a good husband - who just happens to look at the world as only an ex-president can.

8. I think and hope so.
She and President Clinton are both highly intelligent, compassionate people who, I believe, truly have the best interests of this country at heart!

9. I'd better be...
this would really be historic to see the former Pres back in the White House for a third term, sort of.

Can't see Bill having WH teas though.

Seriously, Presidents Hillary and Bill = best case scenario.
