Prediction: How the Clintons Saved the GOP.
This will be the headlines if the Democrats make Clinton the nominee.

The Clintons are a gift to the Republican party because they are the only ones who can unite them. Not only will they unite the GOP, but the sleaze politics of the Clintons will create McCain Democrats and Independents.

It's the Integrity Stupid, and the Clintons don't have it.
It's the Gridlock, Bitter Partisanship Stupid, (getting none of our major problems resolved) and that is guaranteed to continue under the Clintons.

3. It doesn't take a crystal ball, it only takes common sense.

6. That little comment is getting so trite around here.
How about something a little more creative.

Or better yet, why don't you Hillary folks petition to change the name of this place to Hillary Underground.
Then you can have it all to your little snarky selves.

8. What can you expect, when they really have no valid defenses to the
fact that the Clintons are lacking in integrity and will not be able to govern because of the bitter partisanship and gridlock a Clinton presidency would guarantee.

5. You're right -- Maybe....If half-right it will come true in a couple of years
The Clintnons may actually win the General Election.

But if they do, they will fracture the Democratic Party while uniting the GOP after a year or two of a return to Clintonian Psychodrama and dashed expectations.

10. Well they were so helpful to the GOP in nineties.
I mean helping them get Congress and everything. Then they contributed so much to helping Mr. Bush gain control of this country.
And now just when it looked like we had the Repukes on the ropes, here come the Clintons.

If she gets the nomination and wins in November, count on the GOP the next day planning their strategy of getting back
Congress in 2010. It will most likely be a reprise of 1994. That is of course if she would win. And I am not sure that's
a given. Either way if she is our nominee, it is going to be another rough four years. And just when we were seeing
a little daylight too.
