Face it: Hillary will be our next President -- unless . . .
Can She Be Stopped? Hillary Clinton Will Be the Next President of the United States, Unless . . .
by John Podhoretz
It's a fact: not only could it happen, but it probably will happen. On January 20, 2009, Hillary Rodham Clinton will be sworn in as the 44th President of the United States, thanks to her Machiavellian determination to surmount all the obstacles between her and the Oval Office, by any means necessary -- and to the inexcusable complacency of conservatives who assume that she is unelectable.
(continued from above)
In Can She Be Stopped? Hillary Clinton Will Be the Next President of the United States, Unless . . ., John Podhoretz explains why the idea that Hillary will be our next President is not just a scary "what if" scenario. Contrary to the bland assumptions of all too many conservatives, there is absolutely nothing that can stop her -- unless conservatives take immediate, decisive action.
Sounding the alarm bell with wit and verve, Can She Be Stopped? shows that Hillary's plan to capture the White House is much further along than her enemies fear. Podhoretz uncovers a host of reasons why -- many of them surprising and even counterintuitive. He also destroys numerous comfortable myths about Clinton that conservatives cling to, including: She's saddled with too many "high negatives" . . . She's too liberal to get elected . . . "Clinton fatigue" will keep her out of the Oval Office. Podhoretz shows that despite the popularity of these ideas, they're wrong on every count.
But all is not lost. Podhoretz also details a precise, carefully calibrated ten-point plan of action that conservatives can and must use now in order to stop Hillary dead in her tracks. Lively, sobering, and practical, Can She Be Stopped? not only shows why conservatives can't afford to persist in their denial of the Hillary problem any longer -- it also provides a detailed blueprint that will spare the country from what would certainly be one of the most disastrous presidencies in American history.
From John Podhoretz's master plan to stop Hillary:
- How to expose the real, ultraliberal Hillary
- Hillary's "high negatives": why they actually aren't likely to hurt her as much as many conservatives assume -- and may even help her
- How to smoke Hillary out, preventing her from hiding behind the smoke and mirrors she customary uses to obfuscate her positions on key issues
- Why Hillary's contemptuous 1992 dismissal of women who "stand by their men" was so bitterly ironic
- How the fact that the country has become more Republican as a result of the Clinton era may end up helping Hillary become President
- Hillary's flat, cold, even off-putting demeanor: how it could actually work to her advantage in a presidential race
- How to force Hillary both to denounce popular Republican programs and to defend unpopular liberal ideas
- Why a Hillary Presidency would be the mirror image of that of George W. Bush - and a Trojan Horse of liberalism
- The sole area in which the Democratic party appears to be united, optimistic, and ready to advance what it believes is a positive vision (it will shock you!)
- How Hillary needs to behave toward Bill in order to win the presidency in 2008
- The immigration issue: how it could split the Republicans in 2008 and make a Hillary presidency inevitable
- How Hillary will pursue the strategy cynically revealed by a Democratic congressman in 1988: running to the Right and governing to the Left
- Why, if things go badly in Iraq, Hillary's presidential candidacy will not be doomed, despite her support for the war
- How Hillary has followed Bill's example and tried to portray herself as relatively conservative culturally -- and how her true colors can be exposed
- Six Republican congressmen whose ties to the devious GOP lobbyist Jack Abramoff could get them in hot water -- and pave the way for a Hillary presidency
- Why Senators have found it almost impossible to win the presidency in the modern era - and how Hillary's decision to seek reelection to the Senate in 2006 could work against her presidential aspirations
- Hillary's great policy failure during Slick Willie's presidency: why it won't be enough to deny her the presidency in 2008 (but it can't hurt!)
- The fault line in the Democratic coalition -- and how it presents one of the key opportunities to stop Hillary from becoming President
- How Republicans can overcome the Republican Party's own problems
- John McCain: why it is highly unlikely that he can win the Republican nomination in 2008, despite his high poll rankings now
- The one candidate the Republicans should nominate to run against Hillary (the choice may surprise you)
- The all-important fight that Republicans and conservatives must wage even if, by some fluke, Hillary is not the Democratic nominee for President in 2008
