“No one was as she steamed toward the 2008 nomination, until some upstart 2-year Senator announced. And the rest is history.”
True, but there were strange Obama rumblings well before the 2008 election. He literally seemed to come out of nowhere after his apparently impressive speech at the 2004 Democrat convention (I think that was the year). It was almost as though certain key people were grooming him for the presidential run well before 2008.
I think your implication is also correct. There are people in the Democrat party who clearly dislike Hillary Clinton—maybe the Clintons in general.
