Hillary Clinton’s Candidacy Could Sink
Boston Globe ^ | May 7, 2015 | John E. Sununu

Sometimes the idea of a thing is much better than the thing itself. Take the Titanic, for example, or Hillary Clinton’s campaign for president. During the all-important conceptual phase, both benefited from an aura of invincibility — which is a great thing to have, until you meet your iceberg.

Before dismissing this as mere partisanship, please note that two years ago I unequivocally declared Secretary Clinton to be the winner of the 2012 elections. Departing the Obama administration on her own terms, her position within the Democratic party was at its peak. To her credit, she used that standing to clear the primary field. Now she towers above all prospective challengers, who remain too weak to expose her flaws

” The Boston Globe, the paper that made its money lavishing on ‘Camelot’, and ‘Uncle Teddy’, actually said NO to another dynastic Democrat!!!

There is hope, yet!”

They wanted Warren....

There’s an FR thread that sez Hillary STARTS the November campaign with 247 electoral votes, 270 needed to win; only a Titanic-sized political catastrophe can stop her.

Scary, folks......

If her candidacy SINKS it will be HER that did herself in.

Somebody has planted into Hillary’s mind (what there is of it), that, she is the ‘incumbent’ and can’t lose, and therefore, she doesn’t need to answer any questions or to meet with people other than those pre-approved. She’s just waiting for the swearing-in ceremony after she goes through the paces of the election.

I laughed. But the more I think about it, I think they're right, unless Cruz or Walker gets the nomination.

You are both right, but I have faith in God. Let us not fall prey to the “inevitable” of Hildabeast and her ilk. There have been dark moments in this country's history but we have survived. It was founded with the grace of God, I hope we still have His grace to recover from the scourge of the feckless fool.

Abraham asked God in Genesis if he would destroy Gomorrah for the sake of 10 good men. God said no. Is there not at least 10 good men in our country?

At least, let her spend the $2.5 billion.

There's no Abraham in our country either.

Mrs. Bill’s candidacy won’t sink.+ Scandals boost her with her voters. They just take it as being canny and, well, good for her!

And therein lies the problem. Even Bernie Sanders would start with close to that. Far too many voters cast straight-ticket ballots, especially on the dem side.

Walk through Roosevelt Avenue in Queens, NYC, and you can sense the backing for HRC. As Jimmuh Carter said of the “energy crisis”: “it is real”.

Really, after the grievous harm done by Obama over 8 years, Hillary is still the odds on favorite for president. And if elected, she will administer the coup de grace to the American republic.

Not long ago, the Globe tried to find a buyer. Nobody offered even a dollar, and THAT works for ME!

LOL
