This old English colony of ours still has a leftover yen for dynasty--witness the two Bushes even while so many voters held their noses in the booth. Witness the two Adams and Roosevelt presidencies of the past. But we're not English and the urge has its limits. We only went for three Bush terms and regretted it at that. When Franklin Roosevelt had three and a half terms we made it illegal for one president to have more than two.
Hillary has a good shot because so many stupid hard right conservatives will go for the less electable Fred Thompson over Guiliani. But if Hillary Clinton is elected, no matter what happens, I can see people being exhausted if faced with four "Clinton" terms. Do you agree that it would flip over the one and two Bush scenario to a two and one?

Too late to edit, but replace the word "stupid" above with "short-sighted." Yeah, that's what I meant.

I wouldnt vote for Hillary under ANY circumstance! Not only can I not stand her...but putting Bill back in the White House is morally wrong...the same place he got impeached from! I dont think so...
Everyone blames this war TOTALLY on Bush. Has everyone forgotten that it was because Mr. Clinton didnt take care of matters when he had the chance...so he is partly to blame.
No, no more Clintons in any form for me, thank you! Morally corrupting the office of President once is enough for me.

I voted for her twice for senator and I would vote for her for president. Your dynasty analysis is interesting but Hillary is not Bill Clinton. On the other hand, if she is at least as good a president as Clinton was, that would be fine too.
We have experienced a very bad presidency for the last few years that will almost insure that the blue states will not vote for a Republican. If the Democratic nominee can pick up another state with a fairly large number of electoral votes, like Ohio, then that person will be president.

Four Clinton terms isnt a relevant argument considering that Hillary will be President, not her husband. And also America was in a lot better shape under the first Clinton adminstration so quite possibly people will be happy about it. No more GWB!

No, I would not vote for Hillary Clinton for many good reasons.
She is a socialist, who would steal all she could from the Hard Working Tax Payers of this Country.
She would completely destroy the Medical System in this Country. Canada has a socialist Medical System, and it takes 6 months to see a Doctor. People come from Canada to get to see Our Doctors IN Our Medical System in the Good Old USA.
She has no Beliefs, or Values that she will not change to fit the moment, the situation or the Crowd, in order to gain power and votes.
She has a Tract Record, but you will not be advised or informed about it by the Liberal Press!
Check the Web yourself. The Truth is there!!

Never did vote for a Clinton and never will. He was too shifty and she is following in his footsteps. Her recent reform to caring for the people has not fooled me. Like most democrats she says one thing and does the opposite.

it is ordinary. Texas voting is a mix of familiar and caucus'. you may vote in the familiar and, in case you're as much because it, you additionally can vote in a caucus that's held later in the day. The delegates offered in the time of the familiar are separate than the delegates award for the period of caucus'.

I would take 10 Bush terms over one Hillary term. If she gets elected, and as much as it sickens me, I know it's possible because HE got RE-ELECTED much to my pain and misery. I just don't know how many days one can be nauseated and live! So, I guess her election will be the death of me. Let's see, 365 x 4, plus one for the leap year that will be thrown in there. Ugh, yeah, I won't make it if she gets elected. UUGggghh! I wonder if my family will be able to sue for wrongful death.

Nope. Any candidate, in either party, has to receive some token support from the other side to be elected. No one can be elected without some crossover. Hillary will get none at all from the conservatives or the Republicans. If she wins the democratic primaries, it is a guaranteed landslide for any moderate reasonable republican.

I wouldn't vote for Comrade Billary at all, not once, not twice, and not at all.

I wouldn't vote for Hillary if someone had a gun to my head.
So the answer to your question is absolutely not.
