SHOULD she win? Yes. Women generally do a better job of anything that requires tough decision making. (look at Maggie Thatcher)

Will she win? Who knows. I think alot of women would change their current political allegiences to vote for someone like Hilary.

I would if I was American - mind you I would vote Democrat anyway.

Rather than debate on the issue of whether or not I think it would be "good" for Hillary to win the elections, I think I'll stay neutral and just evaluate her chances of winning:

I don't think she stands a very good chance. The whole "luster" of the idea that the US might finally have a female President is kind of exciting, but it's safe to say that the majority of voters want our "First Woman President" to be one that they can stand behind wholeheartedly. Clinton is just too controversial, and to have that uncertainty adds an element of hesitation for voters. I think she would have a better shot at becoming President if the country had already had a previous female President. For the "First Woman President", I think a less controversial, more moderate candidate like Condoleeza Rice could pull more support.

A second thing that could potentially hurt Clinton is her support segments. Her platform leans to minority voters. While this country is highly in need of someone that can support the needs, rights, and interests of minorities (i.e. the gay and lesbian community, the Hispanic community, the elderly community), the fact is that statistically, these groups have a much lower voter turnout than the National average. That is why the country is at times so slow to cater to minority needs. It is somewhat of an uphill battle for any candidate to win with a similar platform.

I also think that Democratic voters would prefer to elect a candidate to represent them that will restore the good reputation of their party from what Bill Clinton left the last time we had a Democratic President. Even though Hillary has a slightly different style than her husband, voters will always associate the two. She would stand a better chance if we had had another Democrat in the White House since Bill.

Elections are over a year and a half away. History has shown that in most elections, the front-runners in the polls this far before an election generally are not on the ballot.

It's actually quite useless and silly to be talking about the elections at this point in time.

No! There are far too many Americans that oppose Hillary. Many Americans still remember the Clinton administration, and particularly the failure to respond to attacks, either directly or indirectly, to this country. This would never again be tolerated by the US voters, and there is nothing Hillary could say that would convince the voters that she would employ a more aggressive and non tolerant approach to outside hostility to the US, or it's allies!

Hilllary's support is from the femi-nazis and the homosexual base in the US, besides she has surfaced much too soon, and will be unable to hold the interest of the voters for two more years. Her star is already starting to dim!

NO WAY!!!! Why? Because the Clintons had their time in the White House and did a good job making a laughing stock out of our country and the Presidency. Can you imagine all the trouble Bill could get into as First Man? That would be interesting to watch.

No.
Before Bill Clinton was became a president of the USA, our family never vote. We just didn’t care much for politic, or who is going to be the next president or anything in the government. I didn’t have any opinion idea, or any influenced from any of my friends or anyone that close to me for politic at all. When it times to vote came, it just like it times to change my bed sheet to me. It meant nothing then. I just let someone else did it for me.
After Bill Clinton became a president, I was then woke up and smell the bad coffee that had been left in the hot pot all morning. Everything about him and all his belief was wrong to me. I was not registered to any party back then, and I am not register to any party now. I will vote for the best person to lead this country that I love. Four years is too long to wait for me for the wrong person to get out of the office. It could be worst that he/she might get elect again. To answer to your question is NO I hope she is not winning. While everyone think Bill Clinton was our president then, I feel like Hillary Clinton had already been our president for 8 years. That was my 8 years of ran in to too much of agony times for this country. NO, hope she is not my next president

I would prefer a different candidate, but I would vote for her unless the republicans actually find someone who stands up for traditional conservative values, rather than these braindamaged neo-con puppet pieces of sh** that they've been foisting upon us as of late.

I'm registered independent, and I vote for the candidate, not their party - and usually that ends up being the lesser of two evils.

No, No, No and NO!!!

She believes in the government invading and controlling our lives. Plus she will try to take my guns away. We all should be very afraid if she becomes elected.

She can't.
Remember when Bill was running, they said we were getting two for one. So that means she's already been there, done that, and according to Term Limits, she can't run again.

No, she can't even keep her own husband loyal to her, so she definitly could not keep the loyalty of the voters, our soldiers, or other world leaders.
