Maureen Dowd, writing for the NY Times, seems to have some apprehension about the next possible Clinton administration. Dowd is a little confused herself as she sees Obama as noble with noble ideals but she thinks that a Hillary White House will the third term of Bill.

She has hit on the poll flaws ... name identification + the "Bill Factor"!
Whether the Bill Fanatics want to admit it or not, Bill is "damaged goods"!
It will be an interesting campaign "play" for the liberals to sell Hillary as a woman of her own to be qualified for President, while at the same time attempting to use the infatuation with Bill as the shining star of the Democratic Party to seal the deal. The Hillary camp will want to tease the voters with the presence of Bill nearby for legitimacy, while attempting to portray Hillary has having been "pre-qualified" on paper with her resume of:
Bills Wife
Senator of a state that was not her homestate
Secretary of State who did nothing positive for the country (OR THE WORLD)!
Those are her "accomplishments"!
