text: do you think we would have a female president after the upcoming election? seems like hillary clinton and condi rice are strong candidates. neither could win, especially condi.  she is damaged goods and so full of crap.  but the right female could win.  she is internationally known, intelligent, connected, well spoken, educated, media friendly, yet not one of the good ole boys like hillary.  the answer you ask?  maria shriver.  she runs as a democrat, keeps teddy boy out of the picture, but leverages the kennedy name and arnold can bail from ca to become the 1st gentleman.  sounds crazy, but it could work and if it did we'd either be saved from the same old crap or just collapse in the effort.  either way, we need real change, otherwise we're done.  it's just a matter of when.
