Senator Clinton Acknowledges White House Run

I guess it's on. In a debate in New York with her Republican opponent for the Senate, Senator Clinton acknowledged that she has thought about the White House in 2008. I love what John Spencer asked:
"I'm the only one standing on this platform who wants to be a United States senator for New York for the next six years"
Senator Clinton did state that she has thought about that and then the junior Senator replied:
"As you might guess, I've been asked that a few times before. I am focused on this election. I am focused on my work in the Senate. Obviously, people are talking about whether I will or should be running for president, and I'm flattered by that."
"Flattered?" This isn't a high school student body race. Everything Senator Clinton has been doing is done with her eyes on the White House. As we have stated here before, she has too many public "appearances" around the country and not in New York. Was she even in New York City on 9/11? I never saw footage of her there in her "home state".
Now that the cat is out of the bag, it will be fun to watch the citizens of New York elect a Senator who is only planning on holding office for 2 more years out of her 6 year commitment.
