She'll lose.

She'll take the dem road of attack without alternative.

I wouldn't bet the farm just yet. I see her running as a vPOTUS Candidate, then the POTUS (if elected) getting wacked within the first three months, either scandal and suicide or a conspicuous slaughter which will permit the final assault on the RKBA.

Remember, the media have been pushing the 'failed Bush Administration' line on the public for the duration now, and will only intensify the rumors of scandals, claims of failure, and will top that with a bubble popping campaign of economic doom (also Bush's fault--just ask them), which will be self-fulfilling prophesy.

Look for funding from the Chinese, as it should only take four years to emplace their killer satellites in orbit.

It won't be long before the preparatory strikes start hitting the headlines.
