Few people really know Hillary Clinton. Dick Morris is one of them.

He was a friend and the Clintons’ most trusted political adviser for more than two decades, but he defected from their camp.

Now Morris is warning America – in his newest book co-authored with his wife Eileen McGann – that Hillary Rodham Clinton will become president of the United States in 2008 … unless she is stopped.

He says she can be stopped.

But first we must face the facts.

In “Condi vs. Hillary: The Next Great Presidential Race,” Morris argues that in 2008 Hillary has the “undeniable advantage” to win both the Democratic nomination and the presidency.

Despite this frightening news, Dick Morris says there is a way she can be defeated, her ambition checked once and for all. Morris says only one person in the GOP has the charisma, credentials and voter appeal to stop Hillary. That person is Condoleezza Rice. Morris argues in his sensational book that only Condi, of all the GOP hopefuls, can both win the GOP nomination and beat Hillary.

Still, Morris predicts it will not be easy, but a bitter, grueling fight for the White House.

For sure, “Condi vs. Hillary” is a must read for those who really want to know the inside secrets of Hillary Clinton and her unbridled ambition.

It is also a must read for those who want to know the real story about Condi and why she must reconsider her position and run for president.

In their book, Morris and McGann reveal for the first time Hillary’s long-ago-hatched, secret plan to become the first woman president of the United States.

Shockingly, Morris says that soon after Bill Clinton was elected president in 1992, Hillary convened her and her husband’s top political advisers and stunned them by announcing her intention of becoming president – and her desire to succeed Bill in the Oval Office.

But Morris wasn’t surprised by Hillary’s thirst for power.

Soon upon her arrival at the White House, Hillary tried unsuccessfully to have Vice President Al Gore tossed out of his office so that she, the First Lady, could occupy the office next to the Oval Office.

As Dick Morris also details in this book, as early as 1989 when Bill was still governor of Arkansas and Hillary was an unknown lawyer from Little Rock, Morris realized that Hillary herself wanted to be president!

As Morris relates in “Condi vs. Hillary,” Hillary asked Morris to undertake secret polling to see if she could succeed Bill as governor of Arkansas, a step that would make her a presidential candidate in her own right.

The results of Morris poll – detailed in the book – shocked and hurt Hillary.

At that time, she made a vow to herself and Dick Morris, one that would shape her role during the Clinton presidential years and lay the groundwork for her own plans to become the most powerful person in the world.
