Believe me, we are much better off with this incompetent moron that is Obama. Let's put it this way, Hillary would not be wasting her time playing golf and licking ice cream cones.
I believe 2016 is out of the question for HRC for the reasons described above. However, consider this scenario for 2012 which I believe is very feasible:
The GOP takes control of Congress next month and Obama continues to slide out of favor with the Democratic powers-that-be. Sarah Palin announces her candidacy in the spring and opens up a double-digit lead on Obama. Sometime next summer, Obama is told by his handlers that his re-election chances are virtually nil.
Behind the scenes, a face-saving reason for Obama deciding not to run for re-election is invented (i.e. health problems) and he is out of the race. Enter HRC and Obama throws his enthusiastic support to her, nullifying the potential "angry black vote" that would otherwise come out against her. With two women in the 2012 race (HRC and Palin), the women vote is split along ideological lines and at least 2/3 of the women's vote goes to HRC by default because, let's face it, most women are in favor of big government and socialism. It will be up to the men to tilt the balance to Sarah Palin and it will be very close...

I'm sorry. I was born and raised in that community, and I can tell you that they will not buy this lie. They are going to deduce that Obama has been thrown under the bus by the Clintons, and they will boycott the elections in droves. That, of course, will guarantee a Republican win.
If the Democrats have any last vestige of fight (or sense) left in them by 2012, they won't try this. On the other hand, if the real movers and shakers conclude that they're out in 2012 anyway, they just may support this to get rid of Obama and the Clintons in one fell swoop.
Of course, they'd have to convince black voters that it was all a plot by the Clintons, in order to keep them on the plantation.
That’s one Hell of an interesting scenario!!! Very interesting to consider!
