I remember the irrational hysteria surrounding Obama in 2008. Some considered him a Messiah. There were people crying when he won. Numerous people wore T-shirts with his face on it. Everyone thought he brought hope.
Now that he's arguably (note: arguably) one of the worst presidents in US history and DEFINITELY failed to live up to the hype he generated, do you think liberals will tone it down a notch? I mean, some excitement for Hillary is fine, but do you think we could do without the face t-shirts, the crying, speaking in tongues and "hope" this time around. Maybe liberals can be more realistic, and not attribute messianic abilities to Hillary. It must be embarrassing to pump someone up so much, only to watch them fail over 6+ years.
No- she is white.
IF Hillary is elected (let's keep in mind that most Americans are idiots, so it is quite possible), the only silver lining is that the Clintons get even with their enemies, thus we can expect Obama to take a beating if he is not already in prison at the time.
If she runs she wins. Especially if she chooses Julian or juaquin Castro as the vice. It will be guaranteed.
Nope. There is no way that a party that voted in a young, seemingly hip, minority president is going to bother voting for an old white woman with health/brain issues. They will just stay away from the polls.
The GOP has steadily eroded their viability among women, even married white women.
Hilary Clinton is a woman.
Democrats hold a commanding lead in the Electoral College.
Hilary Clinton is a Democrat.
If she runs, she wins.
as a woman you just insulted me
you told me I will vote for Hillary Clinton just because she is a woman
I voted democrat since my first vote for George Mc Govern
but the democrats are not democrats any longer they are slime and bigots and narrow minded
NO I will not vote for Hillary Clinton I supported her in 08 but I have been paying attention for the last 6 years
Do you worry about the corporatist democrats will do as well?
Both sides have been bought and paid for by special interests.
^^^^^^^This, right here! I think the Obama presidency solidified this for many people. My guess is you'll have an increase in Independent voters from this. People are finally realizing that both large parties in this country get bought out as easily as a hooker on main street. The times are changing.

Did I say 'all women'? No.
I'm talking demographics and trends.
You take it personally...that's your problem.
P.S. I'm a white married woman -- does that mean I have to vote GOP?

Most 'independents' these days seem to be former Republicans who have turned their backs on their party because of the in-fighting and their exhaustion from fighting social issue battles.
If you look at the numbers recording affiliation, it's interesting that the GOP loses just about as many as the 'independents' gain.

Hilary Clinton is a Democrat.
If she runs, she wins.
1) She is a woman, but an old woman, and does not excite the base.
2) She can't deliver a speech to save her life.
3) She's like the female version of Grandpa McCain.
4) If she runs, she loses by a landslide.
