I read an article on FR recently that listed a raft of potential Clinton challengers in their forties and fifties who have decided to ride this one out. The reason is to run against Clinton is political suicide. But after this year she will be too old and she will still control the largest concentration of political funds and donors ever assembled. They are afraid to do to Clinton the things it has become necessary to do in order to win as she has a notoriously long memory and the power to crush people for the remainder of their careers.

They are probably waiting for her to bow out before they jump in. If she does withdraw they will come out of the woodwork.

Obama committed political suicide in 2008? Even the Clintons are not the top tier of the party. If there is another Obama being held in the wings or if Hussein wants to do it again, well, Mrs’ Bill would just find she is on the side of the road with a seized up engine as before. Rank and file and voters knew from early in the 08 campaign that Mrs. Bill was not the choice.

re: young democrat candidates

I think running after the Obama debacle is more off putting than running against Hillary

Obama is the reason a nominated Hillary will lose
