Conspiracy Theory

Looks like some Republicans feel extremely threatened by Hillary Clinton's popularity in her own party. Threatened enough to begin soliciting 2004 election campaign funds with the stated mission of stopping her, even when she has said repeatedly that she will not run for president!!

From CNN:

"Are you ready for a new Clinton era in Washington?" the letter from the Republican Presidential Task Force begins. "...It could happen. But only if you let it."

The appeal being sent this week continues: "If Republicans don't take immediate steps to counter her, Senator Hillary Clinton will continue to rise unimpeded to the very pinnacle of power in Washington and we will see the dawning of a new, more liberal Clinton era."


If she were running for the presidency, I would vote for her in a heartbeat and persuade my parents to vote for her as well. Of course, they hardly need my encouragement to vote for someone other than Bush. I just need to bug them to register to vote and go vote on Election Day!! I wonder if the Republicans would still feel so cocky if she does run. I'm sure she will leave the 9 or 10 other Democratic presidential candidates in the dust.
