I tend to agree as the last 2yrs of this Obama administration look like they are going to drag a LOT of democrats down with it or they are going to start turning on him soon to separate themselves. I think it is going to be hard for anyone established in federal politics to get the election as they are going to be viewed as a large part of the problem and it won't matter if they are a republican or a democrat. I would expect to see a mayor or governor or even a political outsider getting the presidency next time. Hillary is just going to have to answer a bit more than she did at the Benghazi hearings when running for president and she isn't really good at dodging questions she doesnt like...but she does dodge shoes pretty good.

Most Democrats say they'd support Hillary Clinton if she wins their party's presidential nomination, but a new national survey indicates only a minority are excited about that prospect.
The CNN/ORC International poll released today found that 63% of Democrats and independents who lean toward the party said they'd most likely support Clinton as the nominee.
"Clinton remains the prohibitive front-runner for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2016, but there are signs that rank-and-file Democrats may be willing to consider other candidates," Said CNN polling director Keating Holland.
Forty-one percent of Democrats questioned said they'd be enthusiastic if Clinton wins the nomination, with 42% saying they'd be satisfied. One in 10 said they'd be dissatisfied, and 5% said they'd be upset.
Clinton has said she would announce her decision regarding a second White House run sometime early next year. Ref. CNN
And the back pedalling is in full stride now...
She didn't feel good about or agree that the Benghazi attack were fueled by a third rate straight to video movie - but showed confidence when it was put out there (On record).
She didn't agree with going to war in Afghanistan - she was seen walking hand in hand in unity with Democrats and Republicans alike in standing with then President GWB on declaring war (On record).
She and Bill were dead broke when leaving the oval office - yet they had advances to write books and somehow scraped enough together to afford a mansion in the state of NY - (Now back pedaling as sayings that she isn't as rich as you think and that she feels your pain if you aren't getting 14million to write a book that could never recoup that advance - talk about buying influence).
I don't particularly like Hillary, but I do think she would be far better than the inept civil servant we have in office now. That being said, the democrats better hope she doesn't get the nomination. She was at her prime in her first attempt to get the nomination and she failed. People in general really are looking for someone else - she is a bit grating and they would even take a senator with only 2 year of inexperience over her. Now, if she runs she comes with MUCH more baggage. Remember her 3am commercials when she ran last time?

If it were me writing republican adds, I would take this and set up a recording of the Embassador in Benghazi asking for help and then end it with her words about a 3am emergency. It would be too easy to make her look bad with all her baggage. Oh, the fun with the Russian reset button...way too easy. Edited: Vincenzo on 1st Jul, 2014 - 3:49pm

Hillary Clinton Shows She Has No Idea What the Hobby Lobby Ruling Was About
Hillary Clinton is the clear frontrunner at this very early point in the 2016 presidential race and, after the midterm elections, the pro-life movement will undoubtedly bring up a laundry list of her pro-abortion actions and comments. Here is something that will undoubtedly be added to the list.
The potential presidential candidate proves in her response to the Supreme Court's decision protecting Hobby Lobby from the Obama HHS mandate that she really has no fundamental understanding of what the case was about. Ref. Source 4
For all you thinking about the opportunity to vote for Hillary, please listen to the follow audio clip of her and how smug she was with herself for getting a rapist off charges (She obviously thought he was guilty).
Source 2
Or let me phrase it yet another way that Hillary might be familiar with: It is 3am in the morning and you just finished raping another human, who do want to take that call? She is a lifetime politician...and that is not a compliment.
