Here's a short article about U.S. Senator Hillary Clinton from the Rocky Mountain News [July 11, 2005, "Sen. Clinton keeps eye on big picture"]. From the article, "With her husband in the front row, the New York senator delivered a speech titled 'The Big Picture,' which sounded like a preview of her expected presidential run in 2008. With her focus now on her 2006 re- election campaign in New York, she never mentioned a bid for the presidency. But she did assail the current administration on more than one occasion while discussing the economy and the war in Iraq."
Political Wire: "Sen. John McCain's (R-AZ) friends 'believe the probability of his trying again for president in 2008 has risen from 50 percent to 70 percent, with only the question of his future health raising doubt about his candidacy,' Robert Novak reports. 'McCain, who has suffered skin cancer, is reported by friends to be in excellent health. But he is said to be pondering prospects for a man his age. He would be, at age 72, the oldest man ever elected president.'"
Blogs for Bush: "Yesterday, Senator Clinton attacked Bush while giving a speech, accusing him of damaging the economy 'by overspending' and for giving tax cuts to 'the rich.'"
Political Wire: "Sen. Evan Bayh (D-IN) spent the weekend campaigning in New Hampshire, the Indianapolis Star reports. 'Bayh, who is making his first trip to New Hampshire as a potential 2008 candidate, knows it won't be his last.'"
Political Wire: "Virginia Gov. Mark Warner (D) was in Arizona saying 'I'm just focused on being the best governor I can be,' but clearly feeling out a potential White House bid in 2008, the Washington Post reports."
