You felt like you were in an uncontrollable swirl of events - and all you could do was hold on and wait until the inevitable disaster was over.

That is the exact situation we face with Hillary Clinton as a public figure and then certainly running for president in 2008. We are caught up in the vortex of an uncontrollable series of events - and nothing we do can alter it.

Looking back on the history of these Clintons, we see that at each and every time when they were vulnerable - 1992 pre-New Hampshire Primary when the Jennifer Flowers tapes came out and the draft board letter was made public - or when Hillary was running for the Senate and her early poll numbers were weak - they have escaped and lived to fight another day.

The 2000 New York GOP fiasco of Giuliani getting prostate cancer and then revealing his latest extra-marital affair, followed by an unprepared and minor league substitute, Rick Lazio, who ran an atrocious campaign, is yet another example - inside this vortex - of the absolute unstopability of the Hillary Express.

Where it is headed - or where it finally ends we do not yet know. But all our conventional attempts to stop it have failed.

For example, the facts do not matter. A careful recitation of her lies, crimes, contradictions and moral transgressions makes no difference to so many people. They 'see' Hillary differently than we do.

Attacking her does not work, either. In fact, it only helps her popularity.

The other GOP hope is to dredge up a 'Republican Hillary' - ala Elizabeth Dole - and try to neutralize Hillary that way. Good luck!

Of course, Hillary has to get re-elected to the Senate in 2006. Should she lose that race then the presidency two years later would be out of her reach.

But do you believe the New York Republican Party is going to come up with a dynamite candidate who can beat her in a state that is leaning left - especially when they have already given up trying to field a candidate next year against the other Senator, Charles Schumer?

No, I am not giving up on stopping Hillary from being elected President. We must fight each and every way possible - always, unlike the Clintons, within the confines of the letter and the spirit of the law.

But it feels like an inevitablity that Hillary will be at least the Democratic nominee for president in 2008. Whether she wins or not is obviously not known.

We are all inside this vortex. It is, as President Ford called Watergate, a 'long, national nightmare.'

When - or how - it ends we do not know. But it feels like all things run by liberals: it's going to be bad for our country.
