Hillary, With a Victory, Should Still Reconsider

Hillary Clinton has now been on her center trend for over a year. Now more than ever, she needs to pull out of her dive, and rouse her base. She is making a political miscalculation similar to McCain. However, he can afford mistakes, and she cannot. Her approval ratings as senator have been falling, etc. One thing she has done recently is to cuddle up to FOX News. Background: FOX News is not really news. Employees tell of how they were threatened into a republican bias...81% of Brit Hume's



Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY)
guests are republicans...you get the idea. At first, I thought that she was committing political suicide, because Rupert Murdoch has blasted her since FOX came into existence in 1996. However, he is supporting her now, and recently attended one of her many fundraisers. This is meaningful because one of John McCain's biggest pluses is that the media loves him to death, and Hillary has long been their scapegoat. If Hillary can pull Murdoch to her side, it tips the entire balance of the election, as Rupert Murdoch is a billionaire, and owns News Corporation, which in turn owns the New York Post, HarperCollins publishers, TV Guide, 20th Century Fox, and others.
