[PHILIP SCHNEIDER]

I'll bet she recants THAT story before the next election.

Clinton Rules out a Presidential Run Through 2016

Friday, 05 Nov 2010 06:37 AM

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton ruled out running for president in 2012 or
2016 on Friday, saying the United States should be ready for a woman
president but it would not be her.

In interviews in New Zealand, the failed 2008 presidential candidate made clear she had no plans to run again despite talk — fueled partly
by her fellow Democrats' losses in Tuesday's U.S. mid-term elections —
she might embark on a new race.

Asked by TV3 New Zealand whether she ruled out standing for the top U.S. office through 2016, Clinton replied: "Oh yes, yes. I'm very
pleased to be doing what I'm doing as secretary of state."

In a separate interview with TV New Zealand, Clinton said she hopes the United States is ready for a female president, adding "it should
be."

Asked whether it might be her, she replied: "Well, not me. But it will be someone and it is nice coming to countries that have already
proven that they can elect women to the highest governing positions
that they have in their systems."

New Zealand, whose former prime ministers include Helen Clark and Jenny Shipley, is the second-to-last stop on a nearly two-week
Asia-Pacific tour that Clinton wraps up in Australia, whose prime
minister is Julia Gillard.

In Tuesday's election, Democrats lost control of the House, where the Republicans gained at least 60 members. As of Thursday, Democrats
held on to the Senate with a 51-seat majority, but the Republicans
gained six seats there.

The Democrats' poor showing has been widely interpreted as a referendum on President Barack Obama, raising questions about whom the
party may field as its candidate in 2012, when he would be expected to
run for re-election, and 2016.

t's hope we've seen the last of Hillary after the Obama debacle has finished.

Let's hope we've seen the last of Hillary when the Obama debacle is over.

I hope she stays out of it, between her and stretch Pelosi, I don't know who is worse, both are commies... Boy from the looks of that picture aging sure is not kind to her at all! Let's face it she could not of won, many people can't stand her, but now she looks a lot better than zero for sure, just not in my eyes...

politicians statements have a shelf life of about 5 minutes before they expire, if that. i'll bet she has a committee exploring her running in '12 already. and of course if the people demand it(haha) she'll just have to run. if she means it good riddance to that nwo rubbish.
