There is an interesting (but highly improbable) scenario floating around NY lately.
The new governor resigns sometime soon because of more skeletons in his closet (beyond the ones that have come out...infidelity, drug use, etc) involving actions in a public capacity.
The state calls a special election and Hillary and Rudy run.
At the same time, McCain beats Obama.
Hillary wins the NY gov election (and wins again in 2010) and builds her "executive" branch resume.
McCain does not run for a second term (he would be nearly 80).
Hillary in 2012
