At some point all these democrat wannabe's are going to go on the offensive and begin to blast her out of her glass house. How long will it be before it happens. My opinion is within the next 4 weeks (by March 15).. what's your opinion?

Some of you are confused. I am not supporting Hillary nor trying to bring her down by this question. I am simply asking how long it will take before Obama asks questions like, "Why did Hillary say she was misled by Bush when he said Iraq had WMDs when she supported her own husband when he said the same thing in 1998?" When will Edwards ask, "Why would we believe she can lead the country into a new era when she couldn't even control her own husband?"...
Whether she is a viable candidate depends on her party; I am simply asking 'when do the gloves come off" ?

The Presidential candidates will very likely not start criticizing each other yet. It is too early in the campaign cycle. Right now all candidates are trying to gain name recognition and support, and you don't do that by simply attacking another candidate--you have to have plans of your own that makes you stand out from the crowd. I don't see any Democratic candidate criticizing another until next year, when the primaries and caucuses start.

It's sort of hard to misinterpret "blast her out of her glass house?" You chose her as the target and even posed questions for the other candidates to ask that clearly show your stand on Hillary, this is hardly a neutral question. Btw, Edwards won't ever ask her that, it's a sexist question and he'd get more grief than anything else over posing it. Obama's question is easy. She did support her husband's position, except there is one huge difference. He and Bush believed the same thing, but Bill chose to use containment, which obviously worked. Bush chose to invade and found nothing, due to Bill Clinton's former policy working just fine. Bush claimed an imminent threat and she, along with most of America, chose to believe him. I imagine she has learned a great many valuable things from that mistake.

You must remember most democrats are like piranhas. Soon as they see blood they attack whatever is in the area. It is just too bad they have latched onto the poor people that are serving this country in Iraq and punishing them for Bush's bad decisions.
To use cuts in funding for political agenda is entirely wrong. Pelosi has not come to grips with the real duties of the speaker of the house and with radical input from nut cases like Murtha there can be no good from entertaining his goofy approach to foreign policy. The constitution was drawn up to give the President control of foreign relations with senate oversight not the other way around.

i hope they dont... i like Hillary...
look, this election is 100% about the Iraq War...
there is NO Republican on this planet that would vote for a democrat? Why? Because most of them 'joined' the republican party because of their disgust of the Democrat Party and their deceptive false accusations of the Bush Administration by Democrat Party Representatives in the Government...
they didnt 'join' the Republican Party because they believe in less gun restrictions and pro-choice policies...
Sadly, 75% of the voters in the US are dumber then rocks, and actually fall for the Democrats blank accusations...
which means the Republicans need all the votes they can get...
As hard-working people of a great democracy, we often have resentment for "the man"... and things like the paparrazzi and hollywood have made people more attached to controversy and conspiracies... we often fall for these things even when they arent truely proven to be correct by any means...
thats what the Democrats have fed on for the last 3 years...
Hillary Clinton is like the GOD of that...
she will support ANYONE as long as they oppose the President..
they don't even care who it is, if its true, or anything like that...
Hillary Clinton supports leaving the Middle East completely, and allowing the terrorist organizations to decide the fate of their country. I wanna know how that increases "national security"...
She supports Chavez, the same manipulative dictator that has changed his once capitalist democracy into the earliest stages of a communist dictatorship... why? because he openly bashes the President...
she appeases to many of the extremist democrats in america, however she doesnt appease to many moderates, nor independents.. because of her past and speculations of life under Hillary Clinton...
She will probably get 26% of the votes...
Obama / Edwards appeal to some extreme democrats, and many moderates/independents..
they will probably split the 49% of the remaining votes..
On the Republican end...
Many Republicans who have invested time to researching and creating personal analysis of the Iraq war.. to further understand the governments decisions over-seas respect McCain, because he is basically Bush, but a new face without the repetitive, annoying 'Bush insults'...
McCain has gone back in time, reading intelligence briefings and IAEA/UNMOVIC reports... and has created his own policy for the war in Iraq...
thats very respectable, and proves to Republicans that, un-like the name calling..planless democrats, McCain has the ability to be a President.. he has already proven that..
McCain will probably (out of the 25% of republican voters left in america..) take 18% of the votes...
Giuliani, saying he supports the war and coming off as an ultra-conservative... is very like-able by the republicans...however lately he has said that he doesnt 100% agree with the administrations policies on the war.. which makes some conservatives wonder if he is just bribing voters with appeasing policies in order to get votes... not neccessarily meaning he even means what he is proclaiming he means in his campaigns...
he will probably take 5% of the votes...
Romney will probably get the votes of the mormones, and will take 1% of the votes...
Brownback will probably get random votes and will take 1% of the votes, also...
After the Democratic syndrome infected the majority of the people in Iraq... the Republicans need any votes they can get to... quite realisticly.. save America...
2008 Presidential Election Prediction
----------
Hillary Clinton - 26%
Obama - 24.5%
Edwards - 24.5%
McCain - 18%
Giuliani - 5%
Romney - 1%
Brownback - 1%
------------
The more serious democratic candidates.. the better.... especially ones that will take large %ages of votes from other candidates...
i would rather see both Brownback and Romney resign from their presidential run... that way they wont get any write-in votes.. and instead McCain will get more...
thats what america needs...
go hillary! you keep spreading out the democratic party votes!

Hillary's already "turned on" dude---she's already eating the numbers for breakfast and it wasn't the Democrats that turned her on--- it was the total dissatisfaction in the country with the clowns in the center ring at present !! She, and her new vice president Obama will re route some of this big boy garbage that is sucking the country under and begin to put some sanity back in this Dictator---- Oh, I meant Decider type insanity in the White House at present !!!

I heard that lots of the Hollywood types have already deserted her in favor of Obama. I believe even George Soros has made a bigger campaign contribution to Obama. I think Hillary is way too divisive and they know it.

The Democrats do not play that way, they will be very polite to Hillary. If anything they will blast her into the White House.

Well that depends on whether the dems can fool most of the people all of the time, or only fool some of the people most of the time.
