Her time has come and gone, and she missed it.  One of my biggest problems with Hillary is that she has consistently put her own self interests over the party.  The main instance is in 2004.  The party was divided, but the incumbent was so incredibly divisive that even John Kerry, the inept charisma grye was able to nearly win.  

This was Hillary's moment.  The 47-47-6 ohio-florida strategy would have worked perfectly in 2004 and she would have won, had she the guts.  It would have been close, but her ability to stand up to the basic GOP tactics, swift-boating and gay bashing, would have put her over the top, with around 52%.  If Kerry managed 48-51 she could have gotten 52.  

Only she was too afraid.  The Mario Cuomo of 2004, she let yet another Massachusetts liberal get set up and knocked down by a bush, so she could run in 2008.  It's this cautiousness, this fear of doing anything that isn't 100% safe that leads me to believe she is not fit to run in 08.  The tactics of GOP past will not work.  Gay bashing failed across the country, with Arizona actually shooting down a proposed ban.  Obama's likable enough and the public is smart enough not to fall for any more swift boats.  All this leaves us with is two nominees.  

One, while not at Clinton's stature, is still growing.  Ohio has immense potential to grow within the office, and surpass Hillary very quickly, perhaps by the end of the election.  One who aims high, maybe too high, but I'd rather aim high and come close than aim low and get a direct hit.  

Hillary meanwhile tells you everything she has plans.  She's become rigid and inflexible, as was evidenced by her inability to shift gears in her campaign, as the campaign quickly changed.  She's done growing as a person, she's told everyone everything she has, and it's not enough.  She finished growing a while ago, and will soon be overpasses in depth and breadth by Obama.  Sure Obama is light on specifics, but until now, he hasn't had the luxury of being able to talk about ideas.  When you're 20 points behind, and platitudes about hope fill up the chairs, you don't change your message; it's as simple as that.

when you take everything Clinton has offered, subtract it by the normal pandering every politician engages in, and the obstructionism of congress, you're not left with much, because she's just to cautious to try for more.
