Hillary Clinton will step down as U.S. Secretary of State within 'days' of President Barack Obama's second inauguration in January, her spokesman said today.

Her long-respected(?) departure is expected by most Democrats to be a prelude for a White House run in 2016, when she will be 69.

The top candidate to replace her is believed to be Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts, Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and the losing 2004 Democratic presidential nominee. …

I hope she brings the knives out in January.

How odd this administration is, making conservatives rely on the Clintons to tear down the Leftists in the White House.

Hah, probably to save her own skin over this Benghazi debacle. She will still have to testify. She screwed up and if she runs in 2016 - the idiots who re-elected the marxist will vote for her. These people need a rubber stamp on their foreheads which reads “Yes, I’m stupid.”

She’s gotta brush up on Constitutional Law so as to be ready for her Supreme Court nomination. Can’t let Eric Holder get the call before her.

PREDICTION: We will know if Hillary is going to run for the presidency in 2016 IF BILL DOES NOT DIVORCE HER IN THE NEXT 12 MONTHS. Book it.

It’s the Bill Hangin Left Indicator.

I think the rats will run Biden in 2016. I hadn't pondered the Hillary angle - Hmmmmmmmmm. If they run the Shrillary, we have to run Palin!

I bet that's it. Better to resign now than to be forced to resign in disgrace.

But Kerry as a replacement? Yuck.

***And it’s possible that her adversary on the other side will be Jeb Bush. Another Bush, another Clinton. Turnout will be in the tens of thousands.

I doubt that he has one, but he is a TRAITOR.

Prediction: the Grand Old Party elite will give us another liberal to run against her and the republicans will lose again.

Take back the party or start a new one.

He forgot to list Colin Powell. I suspect a deal has been made.

Bill won’t divorce her, and sh won’t divorce him. They have an open marriage, he is free to diddle anything he wants, and so is she. They are both better off, financially, and in terms of “power,” if they don’t go through the legalities of a divorce.

Something (besides the mental disease of Liberalism) is going on with Biden's mental processes. He's had two aneurysm surgeries, his impulse control is definitely worse, and he's getting more and more off-the-wall, forgetful, etc. Dementia perhaps or something similar. In another 4 years, I don't think he'll be able to run - scary thought having him as VP for 4 more.
