It may be Clinton vs. Bush in the next election! It seems Hillary may be persuaded to run against Evil Dictator Bush. I think it’d be a big relief to everyone if she or anyone else could remove him from power. But scary when you think about it. It could end up being 4 years of Bush, 8 of Clinton, 4 of Bush, and 8 more of Clinton. Who knows? As long as Evil Dictator Bush is gone one way or another I’ll be breathing easier.
