Bob Ostertag: The Clinton Campaign and the "Popular Vote" - Politics on The Huffington Post

It's a very good article. Read the whole thing before you argue against it. Never underestimate this woman.

They were discussing what Hillary is really doing on the Sunday am shows yesterday.

She's really not stupid enough to think she can win this election, but she has her eyes on 2012 now. She is going to try to rip Obama apart and work to get a McCain win.

If McCain wins, she has a better chance in 2012, if Obama wins she doesn't. And as we all realize, for Hillary this is all about Hillary.

If that is her plan then all she has to do is run as a 3rd party. That would definetly get McCain the win. Do you think she would ever do that?

I think she could have a surrogate do it for her. In fact I think Ralph Nader might be that surrogate.

Nah. Ron Paul.

He's tanned, he's rested, he's ready.

And he has LOTS of signs.

You didn't read the article. She can win it IF everything she wants comes together. The superdelegates will go with the popular vote winner. She can swing that.
