They’re still scared of her.
She’s still young, vibrant and, as I pointed out years ago, has spent the last 7 years carefully building up a *LOT* of favors to call in. that plus doing an *EXCELLENT* job of supporting truly conservative candidates when (and only when) it made sense to do so.
She’s got a lot of IOU’s she can call in, and easily be “kingmaker” in 2016, 2020 or 2024.
She’s also that rarity, a true partiot, in the sense that she knows it is not all ablut her; that the important thing is electing conservatives even if that means staying somewhat behind the scenes. She’s smart enouogh to know that as a candidate she might indeed be too damaged by enemy attacks to be directly electable as POTUS, but that doesn’t mean that she can’t be a potent force for conservatism (and would make one hell of a secretary of state or secretary of the interior).
At least that’s my take, she is going to do what’s best for America, not Sarah.
Thanks for your thoughts. She would make a wonderful secretary in a Republican administration if they people involved had any balls!
