Analysis:Why Hillary Clinton could bury the Republican presidential field
CBC ^ | 02/25/2014 | Neil Macdonald

So. Hillary Clinton, then. The next president of the United States?

Well, let's see: her closest rival for her own party's nomination is Joe Biden, and a recent poll suggests Clinton has a 61-point lead over the rather mawkish vice-president.

The same poll gives her a 65-point edge over the next most mentioned Democratic contender, Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren.

There are other possibilities, most of them in the same league. That makes Clinton the highest-rated Democratic front-runner ever.

It is just as it was in the run up to 2008. But then came Barry and everything changed. We will see how it works out this time around.

It’s interesting, the Left is running someone they dumped in 2008. She is clearly a NeoCon, the opposite of Obama. And she lusts for the intel power she would have under the NSA and DHS. She would be drunk on that power. And the press has fallen down and worshipped her to give her that power. IMHO, the world must be looking at the US and seeing the Rise of the 4th Reich. No wonder they are all afraid of us and isolating themselves from us now. The world saw this with Germany in the 1930s, and now it’s happening again

Uh...perhaps it would be wise not to have “Hillary” and “bury” in the same sentence.

This is the Hilderbeast’s last shot at POTUS. The MSM is going to pull out all the stops to get her in. The DNC is in full war mode, they’ve already put VA in her pocket. The only hope is another game changing off year election like 2010. However, it seems the Republican wing of the DNC is hell bent on denying any credit to the Tea Party. They’ll sacrifice all hope of a presidential win to this end , by nominating Christie or someone of that ilk.

Hillary Clinton = 900 FBI files = DISQUALIFIED.

Catchy, ain’t it?

To prove she had a pair she would get us into major wars. Stupid wars. That’s why she won’t be elected.

Even John rino McCain likes her for president.

It is a long time until the election. With Globalist funding and Saul Lawinski tactics they think they can win. I am thinking Sarah and will vote for her and her type.

“So. Hillary Clinton, then. The next president of the United States?”

Humble ourselves. Seek His face. (Jesus - the government is upon His shoulders.) Seek His face. Turn from our wicked ways. He’ll hear us. He’ll forgive us. He’ll heal our land. 2 Chronicles 7:14

ISAIAH 9:6 (The Message Bible)
For a child has been born—for us!
the gift of a son—for us!
He’ll take over
the running of the world.
His names will be: Amazing Counselor,
Strong God,
Eternal Father,
Prince of Wholeness.
His ruling authority will grow,
and there’ll be no limits to the wholeness he brings.
He’ll rule from the historic David throne
over that promised kingdom.
He’ll put that kingdom on a firm footing
and keep it going
With fair dealing and right living,
beginning now and lasting always.
The zeal of God-of-the-Angel-Armies

Barring a miracle, Hillary Clinton will be inaugurated in January 2017. The Republican Party is far too weak and broken now to contend for the White House. Not a single pretender in the GOP ranks is even within shouting distance of her in any poll whatsoever. Liberals will never break ranks with their party, large majorities of women will vote for her and the minorities — they’re as locked onto the floor of the democrat plantation as ever.

Aside from her own health issues, the only factor that could provide even the slightest road bump worth of drama would be yet another hardline leftist to rise to the top on the democrat side... perhaps a hispanic like one of the Castros from San Antonio. I’m thinking the more likely scenario is she’ll just bring a hispanic onto the ticket as her VP. But, unless someone unexpectedly surfaces on the GOP side, the election is a mere formality, en route to her coronation.

The Canadian Broadcast Corporation (CBC) is usually out of touch with realities of US politics.

Well, of course.. that's the only measure of hope this dying country has left.

Hey ‘rats: in - your - dreams. Go ahead, run Hillary. Of any ‘rat name I’ve heard she has the most damning baggage. (by an order of magnitude or more) Best thing that could happen for the GOP - Hillary running against a GOP contender whose campaign has the stones to go after her. That last part is the big question.

I agree wholeheartedly. That's where the emphasis for the GOP should be now.

I think the Democrats have figured out how to fix presidential elections. I don’t foresee a Republican ever again.

I remember Sean Hannity interviewing Lanny Davis (the "Pee Wee Herman" of the Democratic Party) about this on "Hannity and Colmes." Davis insisted that no one had access to the files, but, a few minutes later, Davis made a reference to something specific that was in one of the files. Hannity then asked him how he knew about that if no one was looking at the files. Davis, with a "deer in the headlights" look on his face, tried his best not to stutter and stammer through an answer.

Through entitlements, the breakdown of the family, infestation of the schools and universities with hardcore left "ideals" and de facto ownership of the "media," the dems have cobbled together the unshakeable majority they needed. This is a structural, rather than transitory advantage.
