I'm literally starving for some class and intelligence in the WH.

If Hillary runs she wins ... and she'll be two-term'er. The nation went ga-ga over the first white President with obvious African roots, and it'll go ga-ga over the first female President. Two firsts, back-to-back. It's a slam-dunk, IMO.

There's an old saying: Democrats fall in love and Republicans fall in line.
The Democrats very seldom nominate the runner-up then next time around , and the Republicans almost always do.

If Clinton decides to run, the situation will reverse for the first time in many elections. Hillary is such a runaway fave in the early polls that it's becoming hard to imagine she won't run, and if she does, I think she would swamp any challenger.

For the first time in decades, there is no Republican runner-up this time. Romney won't run again, and the nomination is wide open, with no clear overwhelming favorite as yet.

If the Republicans develop a solid favorite before 2016, I think their nominee could set the course for 2020 and possibly longer. But if no clear favorite emerges, I expect the election to be a replay of 2012.

Except for the hung money dump of 2012. The Republicans spent an enormous amount of money, and got very little return. Over $100 million went to their professional campaign advisors and high staff alone, while the Democratic campaign paid only $6 million to their professionals. I doubt this will happen again.

If anyone votes for Hillary they may as well sign a death warrant for a loved one.

BENGAHZI cannot be forgotten and the witch holds hands with BHO when they pray to whatever dark demon which put them in their current positions. BENGHAZI is enough to jail both for treason.
The best part?? Mindless boobs will keep voting them into office.

Why is the qustion I want to ask.

If Hillary gets the D candidacy one thing is certain...that party has manure for brains.

At that point the public should refrain from voting as a social experiment just to see how large of a margin the electoral college puts her in by.
Because it's highly probable there will be no Obama dynasty. That's the subject here.

That is wishful thinking on your part. Issa and all the others have been trumpeting Benghazi and has come up with goose eggs, or shall I say, egg on their faces.

As much as you despise HRC, you gotta remember, she has been in public life for a few decades and seen all the political skullduggery thrown at her and Bill (like the Arkansas Project) and survived it. Issa is and was an amateur compared with the Scaife-funded scandal-mongering machine.

Sounds like a ignorant plan to me. That is how you got Obama. How about look at both candidates and decide which is better for the Nation or depending on who the GOP runs, who is the lesser evil. If Jeb ran then what would you do, it would Bush verses Clinton, would your head implode?

Wow, talking about nonsense, you do seem on a roll these days, unfortunately it is straight down hill, stop with the wild accusations, they might work at work or at home, on here people do not fall for rhetoric. BTW: Mindless Boobs are the ones that vote based on what letter is behind a candidates name, does not matter which Party it is, Armory
