Predictions & Strategies (w/poll)

Sun Sep 30, 2007 at 10:42:06 PM PDT

Republicans are predicting that Hillary Clinton will be the Democratic candidate for 2008 because it would benefit them.

That's the long and the short of it. I've known for several months that a Clinton nomination would be polarizing and easily would benefit the Republicans, who have mountains of things to dish at her and her husband. Why is the press buoying that?

Somehow, the (still-conservatively-held) press has it as a neck-and-neck race between Ms. Clinton and Mr. Obama--that is, a white woman vs. a black man. Who would you rather see in the White House? the media asks.
