I think Hillary is lock.

Have to disagree there, for the following reasons.

The Democrat Party is moving Left at such a frenetic clip, she is now too Conservative to suit their base.

Obama's Peeps have never been her friends, and now feel that the White House is the exclusive domain of "our people". They won't go down without a fight. (and for this reason, I suspect the Dems will have great difficulty nominating non-minorities in the future)

She was a lock in '08 too, but was taken out at the knees by an amateur novice.

Bill does not really want her mucking up his legacy, and will throw the tacks in the rear view mirror at precisely the right moment.

By 2016 there will be elderly warthogs who look better on HDTV.

I wonder who the Left Left would run against her? Maxine Waters? Pelosi? Reid? Weiner? Or is there someone we haven’t met yet being groomed for the spot? I dunno.... I do agree she’s more conservative than the left base. What a terrible thought....

You have only to look at the chain of mayors in the major cities to see that. Philadelphia, for one example. Now that it is in complete, utter and nearly irredeemable decay, Detroit has once again elected a Europe-descended mayor. If he manages to fix it up, they will go right back to their Democrat ways.
