Kristol: Odds 'Better Than 50/50' Big Dem Jumps in Against 'Extraordinarily Weak' Hillary
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Is Hillary hearing donkey hoofbeats? On his Weekly Standard podcast today, Bill Kristol put the odds at "better than 50/50" that one or more of Elizabeth Warren, Joe Biden or John Kerry would jump into the race against a Hillary Clinton whom he described as "extraordinarily weak."

Kristol made an undeniable point, to wit, that "if someone came down and gave you the poll numbers on Hillary Clinton, from the last two, three, four public polls, you would look at that and say, whoah: this is a very weak and very vulnerable frontrunner."

Warren, Kerry, and Algore were mentioned on that “Political Insiders” show on Fox.

IDK if there are any "Big" democrats left. Biden? Kerry? Fauxcahontas? Really.

A year ago, I thought Kerry might make another run at the White House, but after the Syrian red line, and the disastrous Iran deal, I don’t see how anyone could take him seriously. Warren, of course, will appeal to the far left, but would also be a weak candidate. Joe Biden just might be the most viable candidate they have (which tells you just how shallow the Dem bench is!) He might be persuaded to run “for the good of the party.”

Biden was running around New York State today handing out money. Coincidence?

Me too. They need a woman at the top of the ticket. My guess is Fauxahontas and Julian Castro are the Dems ticket next year. Castro is a no-brainer for the Hispanic vote, and especially if Trump were to get the GOP nomination.

The libs I know are waiting for the Indian Princess. They have been saying for months that Warren/Sanders will be the Dem ticket.

Not yet I hope! I want the Dems to continue to put her out there and send her more and more money. More!

The arrogance of the Dems and Clinton for thinking this was all going to go over well is just breath-taking.

The clock is ticking.
A brief search didn’t find the list of “must enter by” dates for the Dem state primaries and caucuses.

I do know in 2007, Baraq had been campaigning and fundraising for 6 months by now.

How big is Hillary's "war chest"?

Is she legally allowed to spend all of the millions from the Clinton Foundation on a presidential run?

I don’t know, but she won’t need it.
She’s getting HUGE money from the usual suspects around the world.

Too much “white privilege” on that ticket.

Realistically, they will probably lean towards a Chris Christie/DeBlasio ticket!!!!
