the possibilities aren't too bright for common sense.....if Hillary Clinton gets the Dem nomination in '08 (and she has the financial backing to swing it most likely) ... all the Repubs have to do is run a moderately conservative candidate against her ...(McCain maybe?) ...and we're looking at 4-8 more years of Republican rule.

Unless Clinton wins, of course (how likely is that?).   

Just a scenario based on pure conjecture.
