| Hillary not to run for President; Take position as Senate Majority Leader First of all, Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, whom most give high marks for the manner in which he has stewarded the Dems in the Senate despite the absence of a clear Democratic Party chief, has sent private signals to Senator Hillary Clinton and other stalwarts of the party that he "would like to" step down from his post in early 2009. Reid has not stated definitively that he will -- but he apparently prefers "whipping" the Party from behind and the side rather than serving as commander-in-chief on the Senate floor. What Reid is offering Senator Hillary Clinton is his total, robust support to succeed him as Senate Majority Leader if she elects not to pursue the Democratic nomination for President.

| Hers is done and over with, along with not guilty. Its just a little suspicious when your dads/brothers company is about to tank and you bail a couple days before hand. Pretty much pulled a Martha Stewart. | ||||

| Her ambition will not permit her to accept this without running for President, I think. I have a feeling she is going to completely fuck the Democrats chance of taking back the White House in '08.. She just has too many negatives.  | ||||
