Unless she can learn a cool trick that she can take on TV and show the LIV in the next 16 months she is toast.

The signal is, “two if by van, one if by broom.”

He used to be syndicated on weekends in the SF bay area market.

Insufferably pompous. The only thing that got him worked up enough to be abusive was an outspoken christian caller.

I agree that the Republicans need to pitch an agenda for the future. Tie Hillary to the failures of the past liberal policies; the lack of job opportunities; the poo schools; the idiotic notion of PC speech; the protected classes vs the rest of us. etc.; the anti-Christian, anti-Jewish attitudes of the liberals, etc.

But, the most important is the need to look ahead (I hesitate to use the word ‘forward’, as it connotes Obama and MSNBC). It is jobs, jobs, jobs, and Homeland security in spades.

Stop your speculating. Nothing refers in the article and other articles by him that he is for Jeb Bush

She’s got 47% locked in and $2.5 bil to “persuade” the rest.
I’m still nervous.

Why would anyone think they won't do the same in 2016?

I expected it, but it hasn't happened yet, and the clock it running. We'll know in another couple months. There was an unannounced meeting at the WH 3 weeks ago with the Clintons and the Chicago crew. (reported in a WSJ blog). Shortly afterwards the Clintons leased two floors of a NYC office building and hired 35 people. I'm wondering if the Mob gave them a stand-off agreement, perhaps with the ability to put in their VP?

No speculation...he said it on his show on Dallas this week. I will allow a caveat: he prefers Cruz or Perry, but he said he’d “crawl over broken glass” to vote for Jeb, should he win the nomination.

You are quite right on that point.

Still, I think her handlers are using pretty much the same strategies that worked for Nixon, another unlikable, ungraceful, seemingly paranoid poor speaker to minimize weaknesses.

Actually, I'm anticipating a scenario where she drops out of the race on her own. The half-@ssed "road trip" we just saw may actually support a theory that I've seen posted on FR in a few places in recent days ... that she's fabricated this "presidential campaign" just to keep big-money donors pouring money into the Clinton Foundation, and she has to pretend she's serious about it because otherwise the money stops coming in.

This isn't all that uncommon in campaign politics. On the GOP side, I'd make the case that this is exactly what was behind the 2008/2012 campaigns of Rudy Giuliani and Newt Gingrich.

We’ll know soon enough. Getting on the ballot in a bunch of primary states takes some time and money. Even the mega-organized Chicago Mob would need to start the thrust before too many more months pass.

Agree with this completely. Does anyone even know the full extent of the fraud in the last few elections?
