Democrats’ hunt for Trump slayer may lead to Hillary Clinton comeback: Goodwin
nyPOST ^ | 3/7/2020 | MICHAEL GOODWIN

Now that the once-sprawling field of Democrats seeking the presidency has become a two-man race, many in the party are breathing a sigh of relief. All the more so because Joe Biden is the clear front-runner and the dreaded Bernie Sanders looks to be fading.

So it’s all set. Biden will be the nominee and give the party a solid chance of scoring a November trifecta: beating President Trump, taking the Senate and holding the House.

Count me as skeptical. Instead of a smooth ride, it’s more likely that the Dems’ desperate search for a Trump slayer will hit more turbulence and an alternative to Biden still could be necessary.

Guess what — one just happens to be waiting in the wings, hoping for an invitation. Before you laugh at the prospect of a Hillary Clinton comeback, consider the too-weird twists and turns of Biden’s campaign.

The widespread belief that the former veep is ready and able to go the distance strikes me as wishful thinking at best. It is suspect because it is so sudden and reflects a complete reversal of the sentiment about him less than two weeks ago.

After he finished fourth in Iowa, fifth in New Hampshire and a distant second in Nevada, the consensus was that unless Biden won big in the Feb. 29 South Carolina primary, he was toast.

“...slayer...”???? Such disgusting use of violence words. The leftists know no bounds.

Biden’s mental acuity will be challenged repeatedly before the convention. If its clear to the American people that he has unmistakable dementia, The Democrats regardless of delegate counts will nominate someone else. If they bypass Bernie for Clinton, it won’t be pretty in Milwaukee.

It won’t be pretty anywhere. Hell, I’ll take to the streets. And I live in Houston

Last time she spent 1.4 billion dollars and still lost a rigged election to a political nobody.

Sounds like just the person to take another swing at it now that President Trump has all the classified information about her and her cohorts at his fingertips.

Democrats must want to be severely beaten in the next election if they're floating this idea.

Her Thighness is more disliked now than ever before.

The shine is off of the crystal chandelier.

Did the so-called “news” media ever put out the call for an “Obama Slayer”

Interesting choice of words, suggesting violence or assassination of the POTUS, while also allowing them to say “oh it’s just a figure of speech”.

There are far more three time losers in the world than two time. Winners are drawn to winning, losers to losing. 'illary is strongly drawn into losing her third time. It's what losers do.

I could see this scenario playing out. Biden stumbles and bumbles to the convention and there is Hillary, waiting in the wings to swoop in to the rescue. SURPRISE! And trust me, the convention will go wild for her. They will swoon. They will cry tears of joy. COMEBACK KID! will be on the cover of every paper the next day. Drudge and Mitt Romney will have a three-day orgasm - maybe even together.

The old hag won't even have to campaign. She'll get on the ticket and if Biden wins, he'll be out of office within six months by hook or by crook.

Democrats are amazing. They convince them selves that an utterly talentless unaccomplished hanger-on of Bill Clintons is somebody. They prop her up and cast her as the the most talented politician in the world. She is then given a righteous drubbing by a neophyte politician, Donald Trump. Now, after 3 years of sticking a mic in her face and encouraging her to give her smug rendition of the greatest politician in the world, they are back to believing that she is...the greatest politician in the world. Amazing!

Biden will pick Hillary for VP--he has to to have half a chance of winning.

The Dem establishment and mainstream media will throw their full support behind the couple.

Then, Slow Joe will fade away as Hillary takes over.

This is so predictable. Let me be the first to say: "Joe Biden didn't kill himself."

Hopefully for Hillary, she has operating room quality air processing at her estate.

That Corona would take Coughin’ Clinton down in a heartbeat.
