Still looking for the "Vast right wing conspiracy...?"

At this point, I understand how this prediction will be received. It’s been common belief for some time that Hillary Clinton would headline the ticket. And there’s ample reasoning to think that she will. So let’s begin there.
First, she’s got something that more than half of the field doesn’t have. Namely, a pair of x chromosomes; she’s a woman (and not the Bruce Jenner kind). As such, opposition to her ascendency to the highest seat of political power in America can immediately be panned as archaic fear among a misogynistic rabble of conservative men (and the crowing of millions of simple and unliberated conservative women that are subservient to them, no doubt) before any policy positions are considered. The Republican “War on Women” farce was established during the 2012 campaign season, and it was lapped up by the media to great effect. There’s no reason to think that her campaign would not enjoy a bit of immunity due to this preceding phenomenon.
Second, she’s American royalty, so to speak. I’ve had more than a few friends tell me that they don’t know anyone who likes Jeb Bush for the Republican presidential ticket. Yet here we are, listening to possibility that he’s a Republican frontrunner for no other reason than his pedigree. Similarly, Hillary hasn’t done much worthy of note, and what she has done offers no signs that she would be a qualified leader of this country (more on this in a bit). But since lack of leadership experience, considering our current two-term president, is clearly not a deal-breaker for the Democrat voting bloc, sharing her husband’s last name should carry a good bit of weight.
The first two reasons lead to the third reason that Hillary is the leading candidate for the Democratic ticket.

All of which is null and void with Elizabeth Warren on the ticket, who has a lower age, less baggage and Suze Orman telling young people at student debt forums that we ought to protect people from high student loan debt and make it bankruptable and forgivable.
If hillary is old warren is not far behind her. At this time she is 65 going on 66, b. 6/22/49.
in 2020 the cherokee princess would be 71 at the time of the election and going on 72 when inaugurated. Reagan was “only” nearly 70 on the day of his inauguration.
Time to get rid of the boomers in politics. I am a mid-boomer ‘55 and can say that. I think most of the generation that sought political office are dope smoking, hippie radicals. They need to go and go quickly.
I am coming to the point where I want to step aside and enjoy a few things I have not done in nearly 4 decades while I still feel like it. These political power brokers need to let the middle age people take over and shape their own future... the one the boomers have built for them is bleak. What the boomer candidates will put in place will shape a future they will be dead for... it is not important to them how it turns out.
Three score and 10 is the span of a man... the rest is gravy. Do these old hags like hillary and warren want to spend their last years screwing up more lives... what arrogance!
Not if the GOP puts up another weak GOP candidate!
The biggest threat to America is the Vagino-American Vote. Those clowns who want to able to tell their grandchildren that they proudly voted for the first vagina to occupy the Oval Office regardless of substantive issues and lack of qualifications.
These are the same dunderheads who will proudly tell their grandchildren how they voted for the first mulatto to occupy the Oval office.
Morons.
I think she’d be easy enough to beat in the general election.
By a conservative candidate like Ted Cruz, yes.
Jebster will lose graciously.
Agreed!!
Is she up to the task, quick on her feet, charismatic, great with rejoinders, smartest gal in the room, has 'command presence', a political savant, people want to see her and be with her? . . Oh wait, that's Sarah Palin.
The real problem I see is whether or not the GOP will select a good candidate that can counteract the Hillary onslaught.
If they select anyone but Cruz, I'm not so sure Hillary can be defeated.
.....He was five and she was six
They rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and she wore white
She would always win the fight
Bang bang she shot him down
Bang bang he hit the ground
Bang bang that awful sound
Bang bang Vince Foster hit the ground.
Mansions, limos, seasons blurr,
Slick porked his girls and he porked her
Yet she would always laugh and say
Remember when we used to play
Bang bang I shot you down
Bang bang you hit the ground
Bang bang that awful sound
Bang bang Vince Foster hit the ground....
Power, money, intrigue and
the one day trips to Switzerland
Unlaundered money in a bag
So heavy that it made him sag
and then that final, fateful day,
he knew too much, and heard her say
Bang Bang.......
If Obama had been white, we would have never heard of him.
NEVER, EVER UNDERESTIMATE the STUPIDITY of the AMERICAN VOTERS!
He is latte.
A lot less than $2.5 billion can buy A LOT of voter fraud.
Voter fraud will be rampant next year. You know the Democrats are working night and day on this. I pray the Republicans are planning a stiff response. Otherwise Killary will win.

One reason: She’s a lying sack of $h!t!
Hillary is not radical enough for the whack far left running the country now...
You are correct. The posted article is wrong. She will be the nominee.
The best we can hope for is that she has a challenger that will pull dem primary voters away from repub primary contests.
Hillary is going to team up with Julian Castro. Add to that the Marxist vote fraud machine that re-elected Obola, and Ted Cruz has an uphill battle.
