How likely is it that Hillary Clinton will run for President next election?
I kind of wish she wouldn't. I actually really like her, and I'm not far off from most of her stances on most things. And I loved Bill so much I still think of him as my President, and would enjoy him being the first ever First Gentleman. That said, I wish the Dems would find some new blood.
He clerked for Rehnquist. He left a high-powered law firm to work for Ken Starr.
Fred, was he working for Starr during the Clinton-hunt, or prior to?

I would feel a little uneasy about the prospect of the 43rd President being the son of the 41st and then the 44th President being the wife of the 42nd.
Plus, the wife of the 41st President considers the 42nd president to be like a son....

I kinda wonder if there might a strategy of replace O'Conner with someone more in the mold of Rehnquist and then replace Rehnquist with someone more in the mold of Scalia. That would move the court a lot to the right but wouldn't be as dramatic as replacing O'Conner with a hard line right winger.
Prior to, Cindy. When Starr was the Solicitor General, '89-'93.
Hillary is losing points with me with this Grand Theft Auto BS. Did she learn nothing from Tipper?
Are Hillary and Bill still married? Why did I think they were separated or divorced?
I like Hillary and I think she'd make a good President, but I think it would be horrible if she ran. I can only imagine how bad the smear campaign would be against her.

This. I'm really uncomfortable with the dynastic thing. Plus, I think she can do more valuable work in the Senate -- I'd rather have her building ideas and policies and coalitions than serving the public-symbol role, which she just doesn't do as well.
(Or maybe I'm just cranky because the presidency obviously belongs to secret political boyfriend Obama)

This, too. Bah.
