In what most political observers would say is some wildly wishful thinking, Republican National Committee chairman Reince Priebus said on Sunday that he doesn't believe Hillary Clinton will run for president in 2016.
"Given the month she just had, I actually doubt very much whether she actually will run for president in 2016," Priebus said on "Meet The Press." "I know a lot of people around her want her to run. And I think that they're purposely creating this environment [of inevitability] around her."
Priebus said he believes questions surrounding Clinton's health recently raised by Republican strategist Karl Rove, coupled with lingering questions about the attacks in Benghazi and her record as secretary of state will make her think twice about running for president.
"I don't think there's a graceful way to bring up age, health and fitness for a candidate that wants to be president of the United States," Priebus said. "I think the more important issue for me, as leader of this party, is, what's the record of Hillary Clinton? What was her record as a secretary of state? Benghazi, Boko Haram, Syria, Russia. Those are going to be the issues that I believe will cause her to rethink whether she actually wants to run for president.

Same principal on Republican scandals versus Dem wrongdoing. No GOP scandal should not be sniffed out, enlarged, blown up, repeated, and searched for as long as needed to destroy its target. With Democrats, a thousand scandals isn’t worth reporting on even one. “Let’s move on.”
The woman has dedicated her entire life to get to where she is now - having the office of POTUS practically thrown at her despite no sane reason for her being POTUS. She obviously can’t be humiliated so if she doesn’t run it can only be because something way beyond her control is stopping her - like her health. And she looks really horrible - older than her years I think.
For a supposed feminist, she got where she is due to a man. Her only claim to fame is that he “wronged” her. (((shaking head in disbelief)))
Plus his name sounds like a guy who should be playing polo on one of his family’s estates.
Hillary fell down and broke her crown; then she did the “Humpty”.
Not in the least.
She has had a traumatic brain injury, most likely a stroke rather than something minor like a concussion. If you watch actual video of her rather than stills it is apparent that she has been unable to use both sides of her body equally for some months now.
The woman will be older than Reagan was when the Primaries begin.
Bad health, old age, alcohol problem, the pressure of the scandals she has been part of being investigated... I don’t see her able to hold up under the pressure of a primary.
I doubt she runs. If she does run, I predict her run ends with another stroke before primary voting.
the problem with that is. anything negative that happens to or around the hildebeast causes her numbers to go UP, not down.
I’m sorry, what?
Blindness?
You[re not paying attention. The Clintons would use that as a bumper sticker.
When people stop ascribing human, virtuous attributes, aspirations and qualities to these people, AND their supporters, we can get somewhere.
“I don’t think she wants to campaign, but she does want to be President.”
Nailed it! The Flying Buttress wants the crown of power brought to her on a velvet pillow; she will then take it and place it upon her own head, like Napoleon.
Hildebeast runs. Count on it.
And any chance we get a real person to run the RNC instead of Reince?
Maybe because he’s the same age as Hillary? (although he looks a hell of a lot better)
No, that's the reason for having the grandchild now. It will make her more endearing to the public. Remember how Queen Elizabeth pulled the "grandmother" card when everyone hated her after Princess Di's death?
Castro? Mayor of San Antonio, Keynote DNC Charismatic amnesty atheist abortion party king?
On his way to DC just this week, abandoning his City to take some political post?
Him?
Prince Rebus, or whatever his name is, is a dumbass.
There was an article posted on FR in 1999, "Hillary on the Ropes," about whether Hillary would run for the Senate, and the author wrote:
"You heard it here the lady's not running!"
The rest is history.
That got her elected as a carpetbagger senator didn't it?
I suspect she might run but she will not get the nomination, she is ugly, toxic and a proven looser and as stupid as democrats are, they are not dumb enough to run someone with that many negatives.
“Telling the hildebeast not to run would be like telling a skunk not to stink”......
I loved that line!!!
