You’re assuming rationality on the part of the base, a fact not in evidence. I do not underestimate Hillary or her machine. She’ll go after Obama and conservatives. (IMO)

The average democrat isn’t a member of Moveon nor dailykos or DU. They remember it was the Clinton’s that caused the party to lose the House after more than four decades.
As for the ‘Clinton machine’....lets not get too carried away. The best the so called ‘machine’ could do was over a decade ago, gaining Bill Clinton 49 percent of the vote in a three candidate race featuring a unelectable to national office GOP candidate (Bob ‘its my turn, damnit!’ Dole).
You know my view on Hilary Clinton’s future better than most in this forum.
You have to admit, with each set of poll numbers, its looking more and more that I’ve been right about this one all along, contrary to the popular political ‘wisdom’.
I don’t know who the candidate for either party will be, but I know Hillary Clinton will not be one of them.
