I think the media is rapidly moving past Hillary and her Hill-billyâ„¢ antics. For example, check out the hideous picture of Hillary they used for this article:
I think she will because she is choking out any serious opposition from entering. Like I posted earlier, she thought she had 2008 in the bag and Obama came out of nowhere.
This time around any potential "Obamas" are getting bought off or bullied before they throw their hat in the ring.
The support for Hillary is so weak that even Sanders is being considered somewhat seriously.
That doesn't happen with a strong candidate and the (D)'s know it.

I have said before that the 2008 race is looked back upon with rose colored glasses as if President Obama was some nobody who entered the race with no name recognition and then stomped hillary when in reality , this time in 2007, Hillary was at 37%, Barack was at 36%(CNN)
Even in the beginning(Barack announced in Fed 2007), the poll from the day before he announced had him at 23%, her at 28% (Rasmussen)
hillary's highest peak in the primary polling was the high 40's in a 7 or 8 person race. in the races that included just her Barack and John Edwards, it was the mid 30's with her getting to 40% in 3 of 28 polls and Barack in the mid 20's to low 30's.
Im not saying Barack wasnt behind(obviously), im just saying the argument that he came out of nowhere is far fetched.
And lets not forget, she actually won the popular vote in the primaries and the initial state delegate count. Barack Obama basically won the primary because he politically maneuvered around Hillary and won the super delegates along with Michigan and Florida primaries not counting.
If we are being honest, Hillary probably should have won the primaries. In a Republican primary format, she would have. Lok at John McCain's victory map, Then look at Hillary's. It was an electoral primary, Hillary would have won 340 to Barack's 198.
This time 8 years ago the media was salivating like Pavlov's dogs of the upcoming epic battle between King Hillary and that bag of hot smelly gas, Rudy Giuliani. They were pretty much ignoring anyone else as a serious candidate. Of course neither happened.
Giuliani quickly self destructed. For her part King Hillary had already assumed she was going to be crowned king and the primary was just a formality. This is why, when she came in not only 2nd but 3rd, in the Iowa Caucus, the wheels came completely off that campaign and they never recovered.
It's not unreasonable to think this won't happen again but I do take note that it seems that in all the DNC there is nobody of national name recognition who is willing to take on the King. This either means the DNC has been stripped of any real leadership by the Obama crowed, or every stop, dirty trick, thread and money spent, to silence this opposition.
Anyone voting for that charade is living on delusion island.

I'm just wondering who Hillary will pick to be Sec of State?
