Democrats openly speculating about an election without Hillary Clinton
The Fiscal Times / Yahoo News ^ | August 24, 2015 | Martin Matishak

The ongoing din over Hillary Clinton’s use of private email server during her tenure as Secretary of State has grown so loud that Democratic Party stalwarts have begun to openly wonder whether she will even be their nominee next year, something unthinkable just a few short months ago.

The unease was on full display Sunday, with California Gov. Jerry Brown, himself a former White House hopeful whose name has been floated more than once to enter the 2016 race, said he wasn’t sure if Clinton would be the party’s standard-bearer.

“I've been around politics long enough to know things are uncertain. I don't know. I think she's a good person. She’s got a lot of experience, but the vagaries of politics are such, I think expectations are worth about that,” Brown said during an interview on NBC’s Meet the Press.

His comments came the day after CNN reported that Vice President Joe Biden made a surprise visit to Washington to meet with Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA). The face-to-face meeting could mean Biden is looking to shore up support among the party’s liberal base ahead of a run.

Asked about Biden entering the Democratic primary, Brown replied: “All I can say, if I were Hillary I would say don't jump in. If I were Biden, I'd probably get very serious consideration.”

A poll released last week showed GOP front runner Donald Trump had pulled within striking distance of Clinton for the first time in a hypothetical general election match-up.

Clinton knee-capped her own campaign’s message this week when she ended a press conference with reporters in Nevada after less than three minutes because the questions were focused on why her private server, which she recently handed over to the Justice Department for analysis, had been wiped clean of data.

Yesterday, I posted that I had mixed feelings about Joe getting into the race because I thought Hillary would be easier to defeat in the General Election. Today, I'm thinking: Go ahead Joe, jump in because that witch has built up such a following in the last 23 years, she will not be an easy foe in November 2016.

I’m hoping Hillary makes a 3rd party run if she gets booted.

DNC realizes that plan B needs to be in place to avoid complete chaos (and the complete destructiondog the D party) when she is taken down. She will be

It's not about us winning or losing. It's about the witch not getting one step closer to the Presidency. I'd much rather, for the sake of the US, have Trump vs Biden and a real discussion of US values.

What has "winning" with the current bought, paid for, and programmed Republicans gotten us but even more backstabbing?

Fit Ms fat azz for an orange jumpsuit, lock her up at Leavenworth with Chelsea Manning. A fitting end for the crooked biotch.

Brown saying, “I think she’s a good person”......

only confirms he’s an idiot. “Hitlary” didn’t get that name being a “good person”, instead she is an evil, lying, horrible, dare I say woman..

Brown is another traitorous demonicrat. Just like cockroaches there’s no need to distinguish demonicrats any further.

Folks, what you are all seeing is a modern day play on “Ol’ Yeller” with the Clinton campaign. Frothing at the mouth and everything. The dims just haven’t worked up the nerve to pull the trigger.

You didn’t quite finish that thought.

I’m a pessimist. Hillary isn’t going anywhere except into that Democratic convention for her much anticipated coronation as the nominee. Her tentacles are wrapped too tightly around too many throats for it to be otherwise.

“If I go down the rest of you are going down with me! I know where the bodies are buried.”

A total implosion of the Democrat/Socialist Party would be a delight.

That said, this country will be a pigsty by the time Obama is through with it. We're going to need someone who can come in and play janitor--big time.

meaning she's probably done him a favor or two or he doesn't really know her at all

You are correct. I just hate the Democrats so much, I’d vote for a one eyed crack whore on the GOP Ticket.
