Will Hillary Clinton Be Our Next President?

[Phillygunguy]

While there is the worry that Hillary would get elected because people would want to do the whole first woman president thing, I think they'd most likely want to do it the way they did it with Obama: Someone who is lesser known and is considered a rising star in Washington. against.

Elizabeth Warren comes to mind

ONLY if God has a TRULY "Babylonian exile"-type punishment in mind for us...

As much as I hate to say it, there stands a good chance you are correct. Now, if the Republicans would only nominate Ted Cruz/Alan West ticket....that might be a different story...

As long as Carl Rove and company are still running the GOP aint gonna happen

I'm pessimistic that the Republicans will have either the testosterone to run against her or field a candidate that even their own base will vote for. Advantage: Hillary, who easily succeeds Barry as the worst president in history.

I'm optimistic that her age and medical condition (double vision due to concussion?) will prevent her from running, or will at least become an issue that will cause her to not do well in the primaries. Advantage: somebody else.

I do NOT believe that Benghazi ever had enough traction with the gummunt benefit crowd to amount to a hill of beans. I also don't think the Republicans have a chance because they will nominate yet another establishment RINO who will cause the base to stay home.

Bottom line: we get another Democrat so buy your guns and ammo NOW.

Make no mistake about it. She is going to push for another Assault Weapons and High Capacity Magazine Ban.

This is true but I think it will work against her. I honestly think the Dems want to run Chris Christie. If he didn't have a fake R by his name I know they would.

I actually have my doubts of her running. She went broke last time ( or broke by her standards ) and Obama threw her a bone. Will she really want to go down that road again?

She's not a very likable person. She doesn't have that wise and understanding aura about her. She's superficial and actually comes off as uninformed. ---- .... well wait a minute, ... so her voter base identifies with her..

I just think it will be a nasty campaign and I also think she will crack. I think the real bitter Hillary will be exposed to the public. So if she runs, they somehow need to come up with a plan that basically keeps her out of debates and the public eye, which I don't see how they can do it.

I'm more worried about who the Rs will run. If we had a candidate she would be a moot point.


One person's take on it.... kinda looks like we are doomed any way it goes... http://www.centerforpolitics.org/cry...016-president/

Hilary is beatable. She has huge negatives. 40% of the population will vote for her whatever she does. 40% of the voters will not vote for her no matter what. The decision will be made in the moderate middle. IF the Republicans run on small government and fiscal responsibility they have a fighting chance. If they run an anti science, anti choice, anti individual freedom, cultural conservative, they are going to get smoked. If a Goldwater type republican ran, he would win in a walk, but that kind of republican can't even get the nomination anymore. Hell, Reagan couldn't get the nomination anymore…

The media is going to elect Hillary....it is almost a certainty.

They have all been doing puff-pieces on the woman. She is showing up on every magazine cover and all over Yahoo news.

They also came forward with this "mastermind" behind Benghazi...probably an attempt to end the controversy surrounding that event. The one thing that could really put an end to Hillary's ascension to the Oval Office.

The pieces are in place for a Hillary cake-walk right into the White House. You will probably see the media pull out all the stops in 2016. You think it was bad when CNN anchors help Obama with answers in a debate...you wait! They will pull out ALL the stops to ensure Hillary gets a soft landing into the Oval Office.

Aiding in this effort will, no doubt, be the RNC. They will by-pass Ted Cruz and Rand Paul and nominate another milk-sap like Christie or Jeb Bush and go down in flames worse than Dole, McCain or Romney. It will be beyond pitiful. They have shown no signs of truly wanting to win, lead or reform a damn thing.

So yeah...I'd love to paint a better future, but as of right now...barring some sort of absolute miracle...I'd say Hillary will make it in 2016.

The sad thing is that after 4-8 years of Hillary...America will truly pass the abyss where our economy an culture will not be able to make any sort of comeback. We will become England or France - a hollowed out, broken, flabby old shadow of it's former self. A textbook example of a has-been nation.

I wish I could paint you a better picture...but this is what I see so far.

Not gonna happen this time either.

I hope you're right. I worry that the Republicans will field some mediocre candidate and give the damned thing to Hillary.

[Honu]

Obama still has about %40 so some polls say ?

That says how bad things are !

Listen to waters world about Hillary fans in line waiting for her book signing ! Listen to so many of the college interviews or on the street ! They vote for Obama no idea what Benghazi is or say it was one of her great highlights how she handled it ? Many think hitler was that one German president we had

A lot is who republicans put up and how split conservative vote happens and while I don't think voting for libertarian is throwing away a vote
conservatives are more divided and might throw to big a gap and dems and libs want a woman president more than anything the republicans put up !

And while many are sick of dems they are sicker of republicans ?

Sadly it's the tipping point of our country and even if republicans win look they way they vote and enough progressive republicans the direction might not change

[brickboy240]

They can nominate Rand Paul (...but they won't) or Chris Christie...does not matter.

Why?

Because the left controls the media. When you control the media...you control the messaging. When you control the messaging you control the elections.

Most low information Democrat voters don't have a clue about Benghazi, White Water or any of the scandals surrounding the Clintons.

This is where we are in America right now.
