We all expected it and the day has finally arrived. Hillary Rodham Clinton announced on her website that she will be entering the 2008 presidential race. A win could make Hillary the first female president in the US, and probably one of the first presidential spouse wins in a democratic country. Just two days ago, Senator Barack Obama entered the race in a quest to become the first black president. Clinton and Obama are the two main contenders, although Hillary Clinton is likely the front runner.
I'm in. And I'm in to win.
Today I am announcing that I will form an exploratory committee to run for president.
And I want you to join me not just for the campaign but for a conversation about the future of our country -- about the bold but practical changes we need to overcome six years of Bush administration failures.
I am going to take this conversation directly to the people of America, and I'm starting by inviting all of you to join me in a series of web chats over the next few days.
The stakes will be high when America chooses a new president in 2008.
