Democrats find themselves with a deplorable dilemma – whether to reach into their no-talent “bench” for a 2028 standard bearer or turn to the 78–year-old party matriarch for yet another comeback bid.
Saddled with an aging constituency of white, privileged, female boomers who fill up “No Kings” rallies, Democrats are in such disarray that some are looking to Hillary Clinton to come to the rescue.
The former Secretary of State is coming to New Hampshire next month to headline a major fundraising dinner – fueling speculation about her White House intentions and generational complaints from progressives who view her as an out of touch retread.
Clinton insists she isn’t running but her appearance in the Granite State on April 25 — her first in the state in seven years – has triggered grumbling that she doesn’t meet the party’s liberal litmus test for candidates any more.
But Clinton sounded recently like an unconfident Little League coach looking at a bench full of weak 12-year-olds as she assessed the current Democratic presidential field.
“We have a kind of big messy contest. And so people are going to run,” she told a German TV show at a conference in Munich. “There’s probably going to be 10 to 15 people running. But we have a good bench, we have some good candidates.”
Really? The pompous, overrated Gavin Newsom? The unelectable Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez? The even worse Kamala Harris?
Former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel is now testing the waters. If he is the nominee, the Democrats are doomed.
That’s what they face as they look to topple President Donald Trump’s successor, which looks now like either Vice President JD Vance or Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

Oh no! not that!
You can do ANYTHING just don’t run Hillary against us!
We’d be sure scared...
At the Debates, Trump can sit in the front row and heckle her.
Hillary?
Even Willie’s Ho would run circles around her.
Then there’s Newsum. He is the one I think would be a frontrunner.
Back in 2016, Cankles smelled of boiled cabbage, urine and farts. Can’t imagine that it’s gotten any better.
All those slasher and horror movies have II, III, IV and more. Then a reboot of the first one.
The evil creature isn’t really killed off in the originals.
Explains Hillary.
As a kid I was disappointed that in Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man (1943) the ending was inconclusive with a burning windmill or something obscuring the two still grappling.
“Vazec, an innkeeper, destroys a nearby dam with dynamite, causing a torrent of water to surge into the castle, sweeping both monsters away to an assumed death.”
Or did one or both actually survive?
Oh yes, please do this. Hill is always the answer. Just ask her.
Alternate caption: “And then the VP runs for President promising no new taxes and saying I am a conservative. And the American people buy it.”
Oh please. Do it.
Well, I heard from a reliable source that Joe Biden is considering running in 2028, and is putting together an exploratory committee. So there!

Clinton had serious and obvious health issues 10 years ago
A public Clinton now would be a real shit show.
It can’t be hidden. There will be no Biden 2.0
We won’t know for sure until alternate candidates start dropping dead like they did in Mexico.
this has got to be an April fools, surely they can’t be this desperate?
What about Gus Hall? Is he still alive?
They misspelled "harridan".
Oh PLEASE RUN HILLARY!!!
That’s really very desperate. Hilary has already lost twice, first to Saint Barack and then to Orange Man Bad.
Now she’s twice as old and as unpleasant. I don’t think even the AWFLs will vote for her in numbers large enough to secure a nomination, much less carry a general election.
This schadenfreude is very, very sweet and tasty.
