Actually I think she is less appealing to the entitlement army than Baraq on a personal basis. Also her advanced age.
But I also think after holding their nose for Romney in 2012, the Tea Party will bolt.
I see 2016 as
45 Clinton
30 RINO
25 TEA
Thus repeating BJ’s Clintonian plurality win in 1992. If the Chicago Mob decides not to back Hillary, then insert the name of their candidate.
I didn’t see that the Tea Party held it’s collective nose and voted Romney. It stayed away and we got BO for a second term. I will crawl across broken glass to vote for anyone running against Hillary. Staying home is no option.
