No way that I would! I would vote for Jessie Jackson before I would her.

First, I am voting for any Democrat right now that runs in the 2008 (and the 2006) election. Any. I see what happens when one party controls the House, the Senate, the Executive Branch and the Supreme Court. It is not pretty. It is pretty horrible.
The Republican Party has lost its focus on fiscal conservatism, borrowing heavily to pay for an occupation that no one wants. It seems now that if you want to get and stay elected on the Republican Party ticket you must pander to the Fundamentalist Rightwing Apocalyptic Culture. Chicken Hawks sending the kids from the Walmart generation off to die with promises of an afterlife (and no veteran's benefits) seems pretty sad to me.
Sure I will vote for Hillary. She is not my first choice but I would vote for her if that is what I have to choose over the Republicans .
I was a Libertarian until I figured out that there was plenty of welfare given out, but it is to the big corporations. Those are the ones on the dole, not the welfare mothers.
Every other democracy has had a woman leader, nothing wrong with the US if we tried it. Smirking sexists who say it would be wrong are the same as Jew and Catholic-baiters of the 60s, IMNSHO.

I would vote for her, first because she is a democrat, but she is also a strong, capable, intelligent woman. That is not afraid to stand up for what she believes in. She would have one of the best advisers in the world in her husband. The last legally elected president, he was also the most successful at the business of running the country in over 40 years.

I will vote for her if she is the Democrat candidate in 2008. I think she has compassion as well as balls. I even think she can be a capable Commander in Chief.
His Divine, answerer above me, platforms dont matter anymore. Choose one party or the other and vote for their candidates even if you have never heard of that man or woman. I used to not vote for someone if I didn't believe in them, like Gore. I couldn't get myself to vote for him in 2000. I now realize the mistake I made. Stop trying to vote smart, just vote.

It depends on what her platform is. However, given her previous statements she'd made in public, I'd doubt it.
I hate that many women will probably vote for her if she runs just because she is a woman and pay little to no attention to her platform. Too many of my ignorant friends almost did this in 2000 with Alan Keyes, until they found out from me that he was a Conservative.

Yes, but only if the Republicans still control Congress. Not because I prefer her policies, but because I want gridlock, sweet gridlock. I'd rather have Hillary and the Republicans with their hands on each other's throats than having their hands dipping into my wallet.

No, it has nothing to do with her gender but after some of the statements shes made I couldn never vote for her.

Honestly no. I would like to see Obama run in 2008. However you would have some Neo Con(vict) saying racist things behind his back, and some wacko Neo Con would kill him.

I hope not. It's hard enough being a man now. in the over feminized culture. I can only imagine what it would be like if she had her way.
