OK.. so, What does Senator Clinton do now? Predictions..
Do you think she will divorce her husband?

Do you think she'll remain a Senator?

Do you think she'll be VP?

Do you think she has a chance of being selected for the Supreme Court (my personal hopes)?

What's next ya'll..

1. The talk is she'll get Secretary of Health & Human Services
She'll be the one to implement the new universal health care program. Hope she is successful.

5. How can you say that?
Isn't that Deja vous all over again. There is a place for her but not in health care. We need someone free and clear from any more pay back to the insurance thugs. Excuse me while I go bang my head!!!!

3. Possibly divorce her husband...
staying with him didn't get her the presidency.

7. Get back to her day job and open about 18 months worth of mail.
That will take at least until January.

8. Night manager at an International House of Pancakes:
Edited on Tue Jun-03-08 10:21 AM by Poll_Blind
"Boysenberry, blueberry, or maple syrup?"

"I think the wife and I are going to go for the maple."

"Boysenberry it is!"

"Ma'am? I'm sorry. We would like the maple syrup with our pancakes."

"What do you know?! Maple!? HA! That's why you need someone like me- otherwise you'd never get anywhere in your pathetic lives!"

"Ma'am, we just want the maple syrup!"

"Harold! These sexist bastards want maple syrup!"

(Harold Ickes, wearing a chef hat, leans out of the kitchen) "Read the fine print on your menu, assholes!"

11. No. Yes. No. No.
Do you think she will divorce her husband? NO

Do you think she'll remain a Senator? YES

Do you think she'll be VP? NO

Do you think she has a chance of being selected for the Supreme Court? NO

I think she will wait and see. She wants to retire her debt and not soil her future in the Democratic party right now. I will not be surprised to see her run for Governor of NY in the near future.

Until she accepts Obama's offer of a cabinet position related to health care.

15. I was actually hoping that Obama would have a progressive stance on health care
Really the 1990's version never did get off of the ground. Seriously we need a better heath care plan than either Hill of Obama have. Will $2500 off of my $24,000 a year payment to my insurance company really solve my problem? We need a progressive person championing the American people when it comes to health care!

16. She will in due time make a speech and throw her support to
obama.....now obama will be like al gore that could have won the election especially in florida if he had used bill clinton more, but he did not....just like obama, he will not use hrc in those blue collar states and obama will end up just like gore, losing an election he should have won....all because gore wanted to be his own man and obama wants new politics and change.....

best of luck obama.....but based upon polling today and with the right in disarray obama should be ahead of mccain by 20 to 25 points. he is not. he is either even or losing to mccain...this is a wake up call and come next week after it has sunk in that obama is the dem nominee he will maybe have a 6 to 8 point lead nationally,but still losing or even with mccain in key states....

I am waiting for the obama speech that will say he ask forgiveness from both clintons for having allowed his campaign to make both clintons into racist....This was the only way obama could win and he played it right, but in the end obama will be like the last two dems......

unless obama either names hrc as his vp or really allows her to campaign for him.

17. New legacy plan?
She'll go back to the Senate and probably take an active role in writing the legislation for health care reform.
Hopefully mend some bridges and improve her reputation so that she can develop strength as a legislator.
Then possibly the new goal for her legacy is a meteoric rise in seniority, etc etc.

23. She'll continue to serve the Democratic Party
Senator Clinton is a patriot! I have no doubt that she'll join us all in working to get Senator Obama elected...In the mean time she'll focus on her duties in the Senate...Advancing Democratic ideals.
