I'll believe the Left will change when a leopard changes its spots. Democrats will probably try to nominate their next Obama-a younger, cooler and hipper diversity cat . Someone no one can even criticize like you could a Hillary (or Trump) because of their extra-special identity.

The left needs a firm, no nonsense candidate.

Magnify the right's stupidity with strong arguments rather than playing up the social justice warrior image, which has made them look weak. There's nothing wrong with being "tolerant" to an extent, but the Democrats have gone overboard with that whole thing.

Voters respond better to toughness and that is what the left lacks.

No one in all likelihood. By losing 33 governors, most of Congress, they have little of a baseball style farm system left.

Well, not that her adoring ( and blind) fan base might not try and resurrect Hillary in 2020, if she's still on the planet, but a reality check would show that she will be 73 or so at that time, and any health problems, other issues she has would be even more pronounced at that time. The prospect of yet another propped up Hillary run in 2020 puts me in mind of a "Weekend At Bernie's"
re-run.

Her turn????? GeezLouize, it's the presidency, not jump rope.

I'd agree, as long as their qualifications and suitability for president are limited to a candidate's racial, ethnic, gender or other minority status, nothing will ever change.

true, but the next presidential election is 2020, which is what people are looking forward to right now. the midterms dont excite too many people.

You see, two years is a full term for a large slice of government.

You see, those too many people get what they deserve.
