Looking at a trend to predict the future is useful, but not without it’s own dangers.
On the surface it appears that the Democrats have everything going for them and it does not look like another Republican or Conservative will ever be elected President (with in my life span, as one poster put it).
Fortunately things do not always turn out the way people think they would. There are always unforeseen events that change things.
By their very nature these events can not be predicted.
Hillary may in fact secure the nomination and have a successful campaign to become President, but it is not a sure thing.
To give in to despair that it is does our cause no good.

Much truth to what you say. I remember watching David Letterman shortly after the first Gulf War, back when he was somewhat amusing and not simply a bitter old man. He was doing some skit about predicting the future and had cards with a timeline on it. He would flip the cards and the timeline would move forward with the next event. The ending card was something like "3000 AD: Democrats regain the White House."
Less than 3 years later, Clinton won (Thanks, H. Ross).
