Unlike the Pubbies, the Dem’s don’t seem to be wedded to the “their turn” theory of nomination. If she starts to look like another Dole or McCain they’ll throw her under the bus.

Main drawback IMO is that she looks hideous in HD. And she becomes extremely shrill if someone manages to get under her skin. And by the time 2016 rolls around many in the electorate will have no memory of her husband’s Presidency.

I agree. I think the book release was somewhat of a trial balloon. And it popped. I see her changing oourse very soon to her deciding that being a grandma is more important to her than running for the WH. She might drag her feet on this a bit to give the DNC a chance to figure out what they will do without her.

The country is at an inflection point brought on by its crisis of political deadlock. It desperately needs a new brand of politics that can break the deadlock and set it upon a new course toward its future and destiny. In such times, a gap normally opens up between the political establishment, guided by the lessons of the past, and the electorate, always ahead of the establishment in pushing for new political paradigms, new dialectical thinking and new coalitions.

How long has that been true? The country has needed something new -- or rather better -- for a long time but it doesn't seem to get it.

Maybe the author's the one not living in the real world. Just because he sees a need for something new and understands Hillary's inadequacies, doesn't mean real world voters will meet the need or see through Hillary.
