She will never be president. She incompetently enabled a preventable terrorist attack in Benghazi and then silenced witnesses, staged phony "investigations," and lied through her teeth to cover it up.

Please post an explanation other than Benghazi because we've heard it a thousand times before.

Oh, I don't know, she :
JOKED about freeing a child rapist. Don't say it was her job. It was, but she still shouldn't joke about it.
Had awful bills on digital media, showing she has no objections to censoring the Internet and video games
Had no idea Russia was going AWOL again
Supports Common Core, just to name a few
And don't forget all the signs she won't run:
Bombed book
Age
Grandchild
Health
Enjoying private life

Yes. The idea that because she lost her lead to Obama means she'll be vulnerable against the GOP is a joke. She would've probably won in an even bigger landslide in 2008 with more Southern white support.

It's one thing to lose to Obama and it's another to lose to Ted Cruz.

I don't think that's true. Hillary would've been closer to McCain because her campaign was so much less engaging than Obama's.

Remember, McCain had a lead in a lot of polls in September before the market crash. While Obama was a very good candidate, it was not a sure thing until that event.

This sounds kind of like what Reagan did before winning a huge landslide.

Yes, because she won't give up until she succeeds. And you lot won't shut up about it until she does.

Of ALL the reasons you could think of that would keep Clinton from winning, and THIS is the best list you could come up with?

Lame.

There may be reasons she won't get elected, but you are forgetting the most important advantages she has.
No substantive primary challenger,

and no substantive GOP candidate that could win a GOP primary.

Borrowing a lengthy quote from Christopher Hitchens...................

"One also hears a great deal about how this awful joint tenure of the executive mansion was a good thing in that it conferred "experience" on the despised and much-deceived wife. Well, the main "experience" involved the comprehensive fouling-up of the nation's health-care arrangements, so as to make them considerably worse than they had been before and to create an opening for the worst-of-all-worlds option of the so-called HMO, combining as it did the maximum of capitalist gouging with the maximum of socialistic bureaucracy. This abysmal outcome, forgiven for no reason that I can perceive, was the individual responsibility of the woman who now seems to think it entitles her to the presidency. But there was another "experience," this time a collaborative one, that is even more significant.

During the Senate debate on the intervention in Iraq, Sen. Clinton made considerable use of her background and "experience" to argue that, yes, Saddam Hussein was indeed a threat. She did not argue so much from the position adopted by the Bush administration as she emphasized the stand taken, by both her husband and Al Gore, when they were in office, to the effect that another and final confrontation with the Baathist regime was more or less inevitable. Now, it does not especially matter whether you agree or agreed with her about this (as I, for once, do and did). What does matter is that she has since altered her position and attempted, with her husband's help, to make people forget that she ever held it. And this, on a grave matter of national honor and security, merely to influence her short-term standing in the Iowa caucuses. Surely that on its own should be sufficient to disqualify her from consideration? Indifferent to truth, willing to use police-state tactics and vulgar libels against inconvenient witnesses, hopeless on health care, and flippant and fast and loose with national security: The case against Hillary Clinton for president is open-and-shut. Of course, against all these considerations you might prefer the newly fashionable and more media-weighty notion that if you don't show her enough appreciation, and after all she's done for us, she may cry."

Hillary Clinton is more likely than anyone else to be the next President. That's mainly because she's an overwhelming favorite for the Democratic presidential primary, and they have a good shot at the nomination.

Her status as the party's frontrunner makes her more likely than anyone else in American politics to be a General Election loser.

She may have her negatives, but she has become very well positioned for a major party nomination in ways that may not make sense for people who aren't mainstream Democrats/ don't follow politics closely.

If Christopher Hitchens is against something, chances are it's the right way to go.

I've heard on the Atlas that this stuff gets even worse during presidential elections Tongue Oh well. I thought everyone had put the whole Benghazi thing behind them, but I guess not.
