-Caveat Lector- ------- Forwarded message follows ------- Filed last night at NewsMax by Carl Limbacher: http://www.newsmax.com/showinsidecover.shtml?a=1999/8/31/165 013 Tuesday August 31, 6:00 PM Federal Election Commission Lists Hillary as Presidential Candidate Some Clintonologists like Dick Morris have doubted whether Hillary Rodham Clinton will actually run for the Senate. After all, being just a senator would be a step down after serving as co-president for eight years. Newsweek had reported some years ago that White House operatives openly talked of 12 years for Clinton -- eight for Bill and four for Hillary. Such an idea would have been preposterous after Hillary's health care debacle. Since then, Hillary has had a metamorphosis of sorts. Polls even show she could run and win in New York state against a popular New York mayor, Rudy Giuliani. Just maybe, Hillary and friends are thinking once again: why not the presidency? So Inside Cover was not surprised when we clicked on the Federal Election Commission's Web site at http://www.fec.gov and typed the name "Clinton" in the search box for reports made by candidates or by committees. Both listed Hillary Clinton as a Senate candidate in New York. Both searches also indicated Hillary as a candidate for the presidency in the year 2000. Check it yourself if you don't believe us. We called the FEC and said, "What gives?" Yes, the FEC spokesperson told us, a committee was formed independently of Hillary, by a group called "People for American Leadership." One FEC form identifies the committee's treasurer as Thomas B. McMullen. The form states the group has a bank account at Crestar Bank in Washington. The FEC spokesperson said the group recently made an application to terminate the committee. Still, the listing raises some intriguing scenarios. Hillary is now a Senate candidate with plans to raise between $20 million and $30 million. She is also going through the trouble of building a campaign staff. Under federal election law, it's perfectly legal for a candidate for one federal office to change their mind and run for another federal office. Hillary could decide tomorrow to run for president, shifting her campaign war chest and putting her staff into high gear for New Hampshire. Of course, there is one little problem: Al Gore. Already Hillary and Bill have trampled on Gore's fundraising network, and she has been sapping his campaign of P.R. with her own forays into New York. Why not throw him overboard altogether? ------- End of forwarded message ------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- Justice is incidental to law and order. ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- Powered by Pegasus Mail for Windows v. 3.02 beta 14 DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.
