Yes, I think that she will run. Let's say she will get the nomination.
I don't know this for absolute certainty, but would this not the first time
that a wife of a former president is running for the highest office.
Many here say that she has been vetted or not. I don't think the past
will hurt her as much as the repugs probable claim that as a good wife
she will just be Bill's mouthpiece.
Would that stick?

(3,431 posts)It would be so easy to claim: A third term with Clinton.
Yet this never comes up in our discussions. Why?

(15,429 posts)They'll be telling every married woman out that married women are nothing but extensions of their husbands with no mind of their own.
It will completely fuck them over to go down such an obviously misogynistic road.
Why the hell do you think they're so terrified of her? Not only has she got it all over them in fund raising capability, they have to be very careful not to allow their pig attitudes about women come out into the open. They'll have to be more careful about their own misogyny than they had to be about their racism when running against Obama.

(3,431 posts)but it does not take her opponent to say that, just enough
of the MSM. And while I agree with you that it should not matter
I think a lot of not just men, but women as well might see
a problem with it.
