‘Hillary is going to win’ in 2016, says Warren Buffett

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) — The presidential election of 2016 is already wrapped up, says Warren Buffett. And the winner is: Hillary Clinton.

“Hillary is going to run,” the Berkshire Hathaway CEO said Tuesday at a Fortune magazine conference. He added: “Hillary is going to win.”

Buffett was so confident the former secretary of state would win the White House that he said he would bet money on it. The famed investor was less confident, however, about who Clinton would face if she decides to run.

“I don’t know,” he said about a potential Republican challenger for Clinton.

It not the vote that counts, but the count of the votes.

Dont be surprised if she does win and wins by a large margin..this country elected Obama TWICE..its not about a person’s character anymore, its “What kind of freebies can I get?” “The kind of people who will vote for Hillary Clinton are the same ones that if you asked them about Benghazi they will think its a soft drink, or some reality show

It’s always conventional wisdom that the Democrat will win no matter the situation.

Exactly.

Been seeing this all my life....and in my study of history, even before my life.

Every Republican that ran against FDR was considered a doddering fool by the statists and the elite--media, academe, societal.

The elites did this in every election since:

Eisenhower was a nice old man but a doddering fool...who only won because he was a war hero.

Nixon against Kennedy? Don't get me started.

Goldwater was a maniac.

Nixon again? Well, he fooled the people.

Ford was an idiot because he pardoned Nixon...

Reagan was a certified loony, but had great handlers.

George H.W. Bush had a silver spoon in his mouth and didn't know squat about governing...

Bob Dole was a redux of Eisenhower but older and more doddering.

George W Bush was a coke fiend and a dunce.

John McCain was once a great war hero, but since then has been a joke (they were kinda close on that one...)

Mitt Romney was a rich elitist who was out of touch (ignoring the fact that their nominees were more elitists and statist)...

So, you're right ilgipper....this crap has been going on for decades.

Someone remind me how Hitlery was a shoo-in for 2008....anyone remember that line, too?!??!!

Someday in the not-too-distant future, Warren and George will be nice and toasty together.

He needs to own the president. The trouble with Hillary is that she will be more loyal to Hillary than to the new world order.

Our Presidents are now chosen for us by Big Money and Big Media. It’s a done deal already.

I’m confident that Buffett won’t be able to take it with him.

Warren, I respect your advice on which stocks to buy...but not which Marxist I should VOTE FOR.

He’s right unless the GOP nominates a true conservative.

That's why I hope the GOP nominates Ben Carson. He would beat her without much effort.

No but Putin could. I don’t think they check if you are an American citizen any longer at least not if you’re a leftist.

I am writing a White Paper on how Warren buffet and Elon Musk raped Nevada on the NVEnergy/Gigafactory/Solar City scam.
Dr. Annette Teijeiro’s Congressional campaign will release it against leftwing Dina Titus.

He’ll be on Elizabeth Warren’s bandwagon soon enough.

Yeah, good luck with that. He needs to consult with some of his billionaire buddies who've been just SO successful at overriding the will of the people....especially when they get a mite riled up. Folks like Bloomberg, Gates and Soros. They have all had their collective A$$E$ handed to them by WE THE PEOPLE in recent showdowns where the billionaires pumped in a ton of cash to insure a victory for the elites.... it didn't happen and it wasn't a squeaker, either.

Has Buffet, Soros, and the Muslim Brotherhood already bought the election? If its ever proved they have anything to do with fixing the elections they need to be hanged and their carcasses fed to the wolves...everyone already suspects it. They just have to catch them.

Yes, he’s not long for this world either. I wonder if he thinks he’ll be able to buy his way in to heaven?

Well, shoot I guess conservatives shouldn’t even try now. Lets face it with her record setting book which sat at number 1 on Amazon all summer, long list of accomplishments, scandal free record of service, uncanny ability not to make gaffes, and successful CNN town hall where the audience had to be instructed how to cheer, I just don’t know how a conservative candidate can beat this woman. </s>

Ten bucks says that Princess Liawatha (Lizzie Warren) is the nominee.As we saw in '08 there's a hierarchy of victimhood in the Rat Party.Race trumped gender back then.In '16 gender *and* race (Liawatha) will trump gender alone (if anyone has figured out what gender the former Twelfth Lady is by then).
