She seems to have a pretty good chance from the way I see it in the UK!
No silly answers please! I'm just interested to see what people think.

I hope not. You are right she does have a pretty good chance. This is based on 2 main reasons.
The first is that the US media is consistently over 90% Democrat and will do anything they can to bias the public against Republicans and in favor of Democrats.
The second is that the Clintons stole and viewed over 900 FBI files. Under the Clinton administration one official was prosecuted for looking at 1 FBI file and served jail time though the Clintons have all of the information on over 900 influential people so they can easily blackmail them. Don't you wonder why every President has tell all books about them and their administration when staff leaves though the Clintons really haven't had this. It's because most Presidents of both parties have been respectful law abiding citizens that people wouldn't fear. That's not the case with Bill and Hillary.

It is probably way too early to assume anything. Howard Dean looked like he was a lock for the nomination in 2004 and he imploded after the primary season began.
Hillary clearly has a lot of negatives and there remains a large percentage of the population who would vote for anyone but her. The question is: how motivated will they be to go vote when the time comes. It is this dynamic that makes handicapping the Democratic nomination process so difficult. If she gets the nomination from the Democrats I would expect the Republicans to play on this segment of the population heavily.
I will say this, though, her involvement makes this a much more interesting political season. I just wish that I didn't have to live with the results!

She has a very good chance at being the next president of the US. Obama will not win. The Republicans will not win, G. Bush did too much damage to the Republican party. If any thing it will be Clinton as President Obama maybe as Vice President.
Cheers

There's no way to predict that far ahead. She's certainly got a chance, but I wouldn't call it a strong chance, not so much because she isn't qualified, but because there's still a bastion of Republicans who despise the Clinton name so very much, they will fight her getting in tooth and nail.
If she does it, we'll have the national anger at Bush to thank.
I'd like to see an Obama/Clinton ticket, myself.

I think she has a good chance... either way, TONS of people I know are voting for Hilary in the upcomming elections.
And to the person who said "no, shes a woman", studies have shown that women are more intelligent than men... and no, I dont believe she will be emotional with the job... she looks like a tough cookie!

I can only say I sure hope not...I disagree %100 with all her views...maybe if you want your children to see more gays and lesbians on TV and would rather have society be a role model instead of yourself then you should promote her. IT DONT TAKE A @#$% VILLAGE...just 2 parents (of the same sex I might add) whom have a moral center. This is the principal that has worked well for the last several thousand years...if Hillary has devoleped a better way her short lifetime then she must be smarter than all of the millions that have lived before her ya ?

She's the undisputed front runner and just keeps gaining more ground as each week goes by. Since it is unlikely that the Republicans will be voted back into the White House in '08, no matter who they run, it seems very likely right now that she will indeed be our next President.

Doubtful. It will most likely be a Republican.
- Get ready for another round of recounts and crying about the Republicans "stealing" an election.

Not if I can help it.
Seriously, alot of people like Hillary, but enough people dislike her with such fervor that I don't believe she'll ever be elected.
Besides which, she's unqualified to be President.
