'You have more talent for public service than anybody in my generation that I have met. … I shouldn't stand in your way.' She looked at me and said, 'Oh, Bill, I'll never run for office.'"

Wait a minute, that was taken out of context. They forgot to mention the knee slapping guffaws of laughter that came out of both of them afterwards........<g>

her actions were unbecoming a senator at this difficult time."

Precisely. I wrote virtually the same thing, to Senator Clinton herself.

Looks to be McCain vs. Huckabee for all of the GOP marbles.

"McCain Now Leads in South Carolina
A new Rasmussen poll shows Sen. John McCain, fresh off his primary win in New Hampshire, has overtaken Mike Huckabee for a 27% to 24% lead in South Carolina. Only last week Huckabee held a 28% to 21% advantage over McCain in the same poll. Mitt Romney, whose presidential hopes are slowly waning, has dropped to a distant third with only 16% support.

An almost forgotten Fred Thompson, whose campaign has largely pinned its success on southern states like South Carolina, only receives 12% of the voters polled despite being the most favorably viewed candidate in the GOP field (72%) and being seen as the most conservative (57%).

The Republican primary in the Palmetto State is on January 19."
