What's your opinion? Should Hillary run? Could we have the first femal president of the United States?

Kerry defeat helps Hillary

WITH the Democrats suddenly in need of a new leader, all eyes are on whether Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton will seek to return her family to the White House.
The victory by President Bush could establish New York's junior senator as the front-runner for the 2008 Democratic nomination for president.
A win by Democrat John Kerry would have put off a run for the White House by the former first lady for at least eight years, and maybe forever.
New York's voters are split on a Clinton run for the White House.
She continues to evoke strong feelings – positive and negative – the way she did during her 2000 Senate campaign.
Richard Stager, a retired machinist from Fayetteville, said he would support a Clinton run for president.
"It's time we had a woman president," the 73-year-old said after voting for Bush yesterday.
"God only knows the men are running this country into the ground."
Bob Gibson, a 57-year-old retiree from New York City, reacted strongly to the suggestion of another Clinton presidency.
Mr Gibson is a Democrat who voted for Bush. "I can't stand Hillary," he said. "She reminds me of my ex-wife; what a phony."
A Bush win did mean "the Democrats will be in somewhat of a disarray. She's the most logical person to pick up the pieces," said Hank Sheinkopf, a Democratic consultant who worked on President Clinton's 1996 re-election effort.
