Opinion: Hillary Clinton is running for president again, sort of
The Miami Herald ^ | February 19, 2019 | BY PATRICIA MURPHY

Posted on 02/19/2019 2:09:16 PM PST by Oldeconomybuyer

Democrats have four tough, smart, qualified women in the Senate running for president. And that might be a problem, because they just tried that against Donald Trump, and it didn’t work in 2016.

It’s not that Sens. Kamala Harris, Elizabeth Warren, Amy Klobuchar and Kirsten Gillibrand wouldn’t each make an excellent president. Like Hillary Clinton, it’s clear that they have all put a great deal of thought into how they’ll run and how they would lead.

They’ve done the hard work of designing policy-specific platforms; they’ve built their early organizations; and all four have put together travel-heavy, strategic early-state rollouts. So far, they have come off as professional, earnest and conventional - in other words, so similar to Clinton that it’s hard to see why the results of their campaigns against Trump would be any different than hers was.

Millions of suburban women gave control of the House to Democrats in the midterms, after all, in a bid to slow Trump’s roll.

But the irony of so many Democratic women running for president this cycle is that they will all need to do much more going forward to distinguish themselves from each other for voters, above and beyond making history. And they’ll need to show how they’re different enough from Clinton that they can win over people who didn’t vote for Clinton in 2016.

IF you read the article (eyeroll) you will see that Hillary is NOT actually running.

The article is about the Democrat women who are, and about how they and Hillary are all gettin’ SCROOOOOOOOD by the EEEEEEEVIL misogynist voters.

Yuck! Give me an f'n break, fake news! None of them have what it takes to be a president, let alone an excellent one. Harris was lousy as a district attorney, and is lousy as a senator. Nothing good coming from her. Ditto for the others.

An Indian, a blendian, and two hopefuls for the invisible candidates due on in 2022 in theater near you.

Good graphic. What this article should generate from anyone with half a clue.

The media thinks they are tough, smart and qualified.
Because they believe it, it must be so.

Remember the Clinton “speaking grift/tour” is still on. The dates are for April and May.

Expect Hillary to stay back, let the vaginas and commies battle it out. When they are damaged goods (remember her operatives are well entrenched in the democRAT party and will assist both sides above) she can step in, in October as the voice of “sanity” on that side.

Not sure how well that’s going to play, but I think that’s her strategy

All through the campaign, I kept saying....where's Hillary?? It's like she didn't even campaign until the last two weeks.

She had to stay hidden because she kept having those head bouncing attacks.

The FBI files are of diminishing use--many of the people are no longer in politics and those who arrived on the scene more recently would not have a file in that collection. Of course from what we now know of the FBI, she might have ways to get the information anyway.

We still don't know who called for the hit on Seth Rich--whether it was Hillary, the DNC, or Obama, or all of them. Without that murder, it might have been impossible to get the collusion narrative off the ground.

“Hillary only got the nomination the last time”

That would be Hillary and her legions of crooked soldiers.
