Run, Hillary, Run!

Hillary is expected to run for President, but has only lukewarm support in California and New York, two absolute bastions of Democratic politics.

Interesting. I would have thought she had more backing than this. Perhaps my Rice-Clinton dream scenario is doomed, not because of the obstacles facing Condi in a Presidential bid, but because Hillary's polling is so bad she might be denied the nomination.

We'll have President Obama long before a female President, Hillary or no.

I think the liberal base is fed up with centrist, triangulating politics, Amp. Hillary has spent the last sixteen years perfecting those politics - which may have been a miscalculation on her part.

(On the other hand, maybe she really is a dark genius and in eighteen months she will stand up and say "I've been compromising and nuancing and now it's time to stand up! VIVA LA REVOLUCION!", and be swept into office on a wave of revolutionary populism.)
