Take her 18 million voters and join McCain as his vice president.  We could truly have a genuine Republicrat.  A mixture of left & right that could get legislation thru the Senators & Congressman. Truly easy for bilateral bills to be passed on issues that can't wait until the next decade.  If she ran as an Independent, she would certainly not win a presidential election, and that would be a easy win for McCain.  Of course then her political career would be as attractive as a horse-turd in a church social punch bowl. Hillary switching to the republican party would be just desserts  for the democratic  party with its mystical formula for having the primaries stretched over months.  ONE TUESDAY just like we do when we vote for President ONE DAY!!!
