If Hillary wins re-election in 2006 and loses in 2008, what will she do in 2012? Will she run for re-election in the Senate, try for the Democrat Nomination for President, or retire from politics?
I have no idea what she
will do, but I have an idea on what she
should do: assume a prominent leadership position within the Senate Democratic caucus, preferably as either Senate Majority Leader or Senate Minority Leader depending on whether Democrats win control of that chamber or not. And above all stay in the Senate as long as she still has the energy for it. Do not make another run for higher office, and better yet don't make
any run for higher office
at all.
