I think we can find a better "first woman" president then her. |

I voted “maybe.” It really depends on what platform she runs on (if she runs) and how good or bad (qualified) the opposition is. I have already proven that I am willing to vote contrary to whom I would normally lean towards voting for if I thought the candidate didn’t cut the mustard. So, it just depends. I really think she is going to run. The signs are all there. |

I forgot to say my vote. I voted yes, mainly because devoid of a better candidate, I would. But if McCain is running again, I'm going to volunteer for his campaign.

Yes, McCain running would change things for me. I wish McCain would leave the Republican Party and register as an Independent. If he did that, we would see the emergance of a third party that could actually rival the Rep/Dem. parties. At least I think that is what would happen. |

One could only hope. It could result in losing some of his Republican base though.

^^Maybe real conservative voters and those who refuse to vote anything but Republican. However, I think there are more than enough moderates/Independents/middle of the road voters who would pick up the slack. There is a reason why most candidates, regardless of there affiliation, start sounding more like moderates/centrists when they are campaigning. They know this will appeal to more voters. You get a popular candidate who actually is a moderate (or thereabouts), then they are in (will give any candidate on the left/right a run for their money). |

24, don't think that if McCain ran for President as an independent, that we would see the rise of a viable third party. We're a LONG way from seeing anything like that happen. The two major parties have too much invested in maintaining the status quo for either of them to allow a third to solidify and and become a true force in government. For one thing, the rise of such a party would reveal the phoniness of the Republicans and Democrats, as well as exposing the fact that their really isn't much substantial difference between them. And I have to ask Noah: What makes you believe that Hillary is qualified to President? I don't think she was even legitimately qualified to be a senator. |

She's a lot more qualified than GWB was his first term. She has actual experience working in Washington from both the legislative and executive standpoints. She has experience running a business and not running it into the ground. And most of all, she knows the value of diplomacy and negotiation, something I think certain politicians would do well to learn themselves. |

I won't disagree that Bush has no business being President, but I'm still at a loss with your stance on Hillary. I lived in Arkansas during my college years, and for a short while after, and am familiar with her background. As far as I know, she never ran a business. She was an attorney with the Rose Law Firm. Her husband may have put her in charge of developing a new national health care plan, but she failed quite miserably at it. And her business acumen can be pretty much summed up by Whitewater. As for her experience as a senator, if you want to give her that point, then you have to give Dubya the governorship of Texas. Plus, from an image standpoint, I think it would be more difficult to present her as viable candidate than you may believe. She's a frumpy women with a tendency to devolve into a strident harpy when she's trying to make a point. I just don't like her as candidate. I'm not saying she won't run, and there's no way I can say that she'd fail, but I'm just not into her at all. |
