I think Hill would be crazy to pick up he nomination at this point. If there is as much animosity as I’d like to think there is, it will bleed to all other dems. Besides that, it will take her a solid four years or more to coil herself for a strike. A loss this year would reduce her to Algorian status. I predict Bill and Hill will let this one ride.
Maybe the dems will give ‘bam the boot. I could see them arranging a nice padded cell/office for him at the UN— it would assuage his ego with a ponderous title but stash someplace where he could do no further harm. The Clinton faction, I expect, would nominate some non-starter to fill the hole for the election so Bill/Hill could start the groundwork.
I expect Hill will climb on the stump around the middle of Romney’s 2nd year, and that will begin her campaign. Hill plays the long game; note how she’s endured her virtually meaningless role as Sec of State.
Could be.
But Hill will be close to 70 in 2016. Not a good thing.
