The web domains are registered but not yet active. Presumably, the announcement will come next week. It'll be interesting to see what her platform is, but right now, she certainly has the recognizability and likability that no one else can even come close to.
If it comes down to a popularity contest (and it usually does), she'll have the inside track unless someone like Lanny, Iginla, or Buck Shot throw their (battered cowboy) hats into the ring. |
While name recognition is important, I do wonder whether that will translate for her. I mean no disrespect when I say this, but really she reads the news....thats it. I'm sure she is smart enough and all that, but what in the world would qualify her to run what is basically an enormous corporation?
