[presidency] just asking, that's all

Nothing really new except that it's interesting why she is continuing so tirelessly. I see two scenarios:

1. She just can't face that the numbers are against her and she's in debt;

2. She might be looking beyond an Obama defeat in November and contemplating running for the nomination in 2012.

Perhaps this latter is the real thing. On the McCain front, Ron Paul is planning to ambush McCain at the GOP convention and after the way he's been shut out by GOP and media alike, especially Fox, one wonders about it.

He seems like a man with nothing to lose and he's more than likely to tell some home truths. Much of what he's been saying is the truth though he shoots wide now and then - everyone knows but doesn't want to know.

You have to smile at what he wants - back to the gold standard, no Federal Reserve, small government and out of Iraq. On the first three - what chance against Morgan and the rest of them? The game's already locked up.

And his ambushing of the Nevada convention where they flooded the place with Paul supporters so that the GOP planned another convention somewhere else secret so that Paul supporters would not get to hear of it - talk about corruption in politics. Ha ha.

What a weird situation - if Paul was nominated he'd trounce Obama or Clinton, picking up disgruntled white democrats as well as real conservatives but the GOP would disown him and the Democrats would never forgive him.

Is he more than nuisance value now? Will people listen? Judge the two men for yourself in this head-to-head:

    He would lose 49-50 states and the conservative vote

  2. #2 for Hillary. I think she will stay in until the convention nominates Obama and will run in 2012, unsuccessfully, I might add.

    Ron Paul just won't go away will he?

  3. She is looking very tired, I think. But she won't give in gracefully!
