I was reading The Drudge Report on FoxNews.com today, and saw an interesting story. Even more interesting than most of the crazy stuff the Fox News usually has. I know, hard to imagine, but here it is. President Bush has predicted the outcome of the Democratic Primaries, and the winner is Hillary Clinton.
Excerpt from The Drudge Report:
“She's got a national presence and this is becoming a national primary,”Bush told Sammon in the book, according to Drudge. “And therefore the person with the national presence, who has got the ability to raise enough money to sustain an effort in a multiplicity of sites, has got a good chance to be nominated.”
So although it isnt in perfect black-and-white, the president has essentially said that he believes Hillary has what it takes to gain the Democratic support for the presidential nomination. Although this doesn't guarantee much for the New York Senator, it does give her even more attention and press than before, and even gives her an audience of Republicans she may have not previously had. With someone as recognizable at the President referencing your credentials, this may put America one step closer to a Bush-Clinton-Bush-Clinton White House progression.
(Although later in the book Bush does say he thinks the Repiblican nominee will beat Hillary. We'll see how far his insight goes.)

Maybe by Clinton, Bush thought that they meant Bill. And by national presence... he meant Bill.
I doubt sincerely that Bush has any real clue about Hillary or her ideas. He says that she has a way to make money, but doesn't everyone? You wouldn't be in the election if you had no way of getting financial backing. Mostly, I think Bush just spit out the first name he thought of. He tends to do that kind of thing.
You know, like "mission accomplished." It was probably something like "we won, yay, what? the war's still on?" Much like this was "Right, who's running, the Clinton guy? Wait, was that years ago?"
