2008 Presidential Race

Yes, I know that everyone knew it was coming, but now that it’s official/confirmed all that I can say is “YAY!!!” and, if I were more mature: “Good for her!” and if I were a more professional person: “Hillary Clinton is what this country needs right now, and if she wins, this could be the beginning of a new era where women are no longer a minority.”

This is from Hillary Clinton’s new campaign website:

I’m in.
And I’m in to win.Today I am announcing that I will form an exploratory
committee to run for president.And I want you to join me not just for
the campaign but for a conversation about the future of our country –
about the bold but practical changes we need to overcome six years of
Bush administration failures.I am going to take this conversation
directly to the people of America, and I’m starting by inviting all of
you to join me in a series of web chats over the next few days.The
stakes will be high when America chooses a new president in 2008.As a
senator, I will spend two years doing everything in my power to limit
the damage George W. Bush can do. But only a new president will be able
to undo Bush’s mistakes and restore our hope and optimism.Only a new
president can renew the promise of America — the idea that if you work
hard you can count on the health care, education, and retirement
security that you need to raise your family. These are the basic values
of America that are under attack from this administration every day.And
only a new president can regain America’s position as a respected
leader in the world.

Don’t think that I’ve forgotten about Obama - he’s cool too - I wish they were different parties - I mean, how cool would it be if the country had to choose between a women AND a black man??? Still, if Hillary or Obama wins the primary, then good for them - I just hope they make it all the way to the presidency. If not, then I guess McCain is ok.

    I *really* hate her. Don’t forget she introduced the bill to censor video games. She also support Bush on Iraq and several other issues. I really want Barack Obama to be our next president.

    I wish I could optimistically think either Hillary or Obama could win, but I don’t think they could. Best chance: a Clinton/Obama ticket. http://www.suntimes.com/news/politics/223338,obama012207a.article
