Is there any way Hillary might be the democrats' candidate?

[poker-penguin]

I have someone who is willing to bet money at 100 to 1 that Hillary Clinton will be the Democrats candidate for president - in 2004.

Now, I'm pretty sure that John Kerry will be nominated (unless he is shot before then, or caught in a major league sex scandal, or turns out to be Osama Bin Laden in disguise).

However, $100 is a lot of cash to risk to win $1. So, if Kerry is taken out of the running, would the nomination automatically go to the guy who came second in the primaries?
