I doubt that. She and Bill seem to be a political team only. She is a driven woman and Bill can help her poltically.

Na, Haiti is a ten year project and Bill and Hillard have a special connection to the place. Plus Bill is the UN Special Envoy to Haiti. Either that, or Hillary will do something to do with women's right on an international level. She's got an interest in that too.

Completely and 1000% disagree. She's said the same thing already at least 3 times to different outlets that she's not gonna run. SoS will be her last position in political office.

She also said that before she ran in the 2008.

He can't help her. The Democratic hierarchy doesn't trust that Bill won't embarrass the party with another sex scandal. He cost her the last election.

Mind providing evidence of said behavior? Questioning policy as it's being hammered out is not undermining, it's editing and weeding out redundancy or flawed legislation that would ultimately cause more problems than it solves.

So what are you talking about, unless you believe that blind obedience is in keeping with the 'American way'?

As to OP... may the better plans prevail. I believed Clinton had the better plan even if it wasn't ideal solution. I only know I want the better plan and could give a rats behind who (space aliens, lizard people) is attached to that plan. Neocon ideology rebranded being the exception... someone might consider doing my country a favor by assassinating them. They really are that odious/ evil and hobble GOP. Republicans, please please please clean up your side and don't offer me evil/ ignorance on the ballot anymore. You leave america no choice when you fail.

Then, some sort of public break with Obama will be engineered, probably along foreign or domestic policy lines, and she'll present herself as the candidate committed to the "change" Obama failed to deliver on.

Of course, nobody will notice or comment on the fact that she and her supporters torpedoed his "change" from within at every opportunity.

That's a complete load. Obama's imploding from within due to his singular ineptness, not from any internecine fire. Obama is Obama's biggest inside job, you should focus on that and getting him to stick to his guns and stick to what he campaigned on. He's torpedoing his own "Change" with the "Same as it ever was" meme.

Hey, this is what we were telling you guys all along...but nah, you wouldn't listen. If you want to blame someone for Obama's failure's, blame him. We told ya so:

No she didn't. She mentioned that she was considering and thinking about it in 2002, and again in 2003. That talking point of she said she wouldn't run before she did is completely bunked.

She will be 65 years old in 2012. She would probably like to retire some day.
