btw. The only issue is whether the Republicans can beat Hillary. I don't think there is any question she is going to be the nominee. I have seen focus groups. She is similar to W (or at least W. before Miers) in that the base loves her, the opposition loathes her and the middle does not mind her. The fact the far right hates her is a problem because it will motivate the base. However, the Dem base loves her which will motivate them and the middle America is willing to vote for her. In addition, she can move to the center without angering the base too much because their loyalty is not based on her position on the issue. A very strong asset. That is a winning combination.
I think McCain, Giuliani and Condi are the only ones that can give her a run for her money.

McCain/Jeb wins it in a walk. Spanky, thoughts?
