Last two présidentiables to appear on the cover: Christie and Rubio. Make of that what you will. For the Dem nomination, most likely Time's correct.

I know, rights? Inks Time. Im going to buy a copy of this week's just to burn it. Maybe I'll even put a Schweitzer '16 in my profile this week while this cover is out there on the stands.

The title reminded me of this thread:

Uh... yes. We're two years away from Iowa, let alone the general election.


I remember coming across that thread way back in the day. Hilarious.

My favorite comment:

Possibly a heart attack while riding his wife Jeri.

It amuses me how we're having this same narrative form just a few years from the last time this exact same narrative was completely crushed. "Can anyone stop Hillary?" Uh, yeah, obviously, considering it happened not that long ago.

The circumstances are far different from 2005-2007. The only comparison is that Hillary was the frontrunner then, and she's the frontrunner now. But once you get past that surface level similarity, the comparison falls apart. Hillary was only polling in the 30s all of those years. While it was enough to be the frontrunner, it clearly left an opening for someone to upend her. Right now she's in the 60s/70s in polling, which is an entirely different universe.

Exactly,

Hence why I'm skeptical of the notion that Hillary will breeze through the primary. The General will depend on who the GOP nominates.

But who is the Obama this time? Warren's denials of interest are more forceful than Obama's were. And even if she runs, her path looks more difficult than his.
