Hmm...well, based on their last two very successful elections I'd say the Dems need to find someone who is (1) unqualified, and (2) hates America. It would help if that individual were a burn-it-down Bolshevik as well.

Add a chronic medical condition to match Hillary's and we have Fidel Castro. If you want charisma, pick Kim Jung Un. Pol Pot's in the running too - he's in as good shape as Hillary is.

Nobody wants Biden.
Gaffe O Matic.
Grope O Matic.
The montages would destroy him in days.

You can see where her cankles have been stretching the sides out. Looks to be about 6” wide or EEEEEE width.

Damn, that woman’s got some hooves!

Throw in a pair of oars and a life vest and I take it.

Most everyone is forgetting about the money.
Apparently only she can use the mountain of cash.
Nobody else has the money for a viable campaign blitz.

I hope you are right.

I am nervous because we are so close to a Trump Presidency I can almost taste it (it tastes like pancakes with tons of syrup btw--I am perpetually on a low carb diet, so a Trump victory might be celebrated by pancakes or waffles with a side of hash browns--and tons of syrup).

If Biden were to be the one, I think you’d quickly discover how little regard the left really has for him. He doesn’t have the right qualities to pull them together. Not a first banana.

No but he is a familiar and easily controlled banana

Those votes remain as they are.

Actually, the Democrats would insist they transfer to whomever is her replacement. Trump would contest the move and it would be struck down by the courts but upheld by the Democrat appeals courts, and then it's off the Supreme Court which would deadlock, leaving the approval of the transfer intact.

Just like every other legal decision.

She’s out, and the democrats are out. Plain and simple.

What makes you think the rule of law would prevail?

Biden would definitely be a lot more popular than Kaine.

But I don't see him slipping easily into campaign mode after basically being retired for the last few years.

Such a person would not exhibit the requisite charisma and inspiring qualities to rally the Democrat base together, should Hillary bail. Biden's not the one.

Coming back to the question, I still can't think of anyone on their side who could get the job done.

It's also possible that Congress could postpone or move election day, but that would be an extreme step...not if president Obama calls on them to postpone election day for the good of the country - at least half the people would be all for it and the Republican congress wouldn't have the strength to withstand doing it - that would give Obama and the libs another three months or so to come up with another scheme to postpone the election further down the road - maybe indefinitely....

President Kaine — he wasn’t Abel.

Now I must admit, I lapsed into a severe laughing fit when I read the part about Chelsea Clinton stepping in. C’mon, how would she get even one tenth of the vote? Biden at least is some sort of known quantity (zero’s reflection).

We held our elections in 1864 during the midst of the Civil War. There is no way this election is going to be postponed. Even our wussy Republican Congress would stand up against that.

I am so with you on that. We plan on having the shop closed on November 9th so we can recuperate from election night. I’m going to crack open a bottle of something special when Trump passes 270.

What happens is they put another puppet in there and totally take over the voting server hubs and proclaim whosis as the WINNER and the Republicans put their tails between their legs ans slink away to do the bidding of their Democrat/Brotherhood masters. The glitch may be that Trump proves to be a true leader and the rest of this speculation is probably actionable.

1864 was another age and we had a fairly honest, competent president named Abe Lincoln at the time - not the deceitful, conniving bumbler Obama as today - Candidate's Death Could Delay or Eliminate Next Election....
