Will anyone step up to challenge Hillary?
Washington Examiner ^ | May 24, 2015 | Hugh Hewitt

Posted on 05/25/2015 5:04:17 AM PDT by Zakeet

... Clinton ought to be disqualified from being commander in chief. How could anyone so reckless be trusted to care for and protect the lives and families of America's men and women in uniform?

That's a hard thing to write, but it is true. She cannot be trusted. She has proven that. Whatever commitments she makes — look at her commitments to President Obama regarding the Clinton Foundation — she breaks when they become inconvenient. Not even burdensome. Simply inconvenient.

But disqualified does not mean beatable. To beat her requires either a Democrat with guts or a Republican nominee with both brains and guts. We will see about the latter, but what about the former?

No, not Elizabeth Warren. She is a paper mache punching bag, unelectable outside of Massachusetts and the far Left's dreams.

Not Bernie Sanders. Not Jim Webb.

For some mysterious reason, Hewitt overlooked the obvious Rat candidate ...

The Obama devastation as measured by the 2014 election is so great that no rational contender will chose to run. It doesn’t matter how good or black or womanish the candidate, loss is certain.

Barack Obama has so badly tainted the name of democrat that there in no chance of one being elected president in 2016

Besides that, the treasury has been looted and there is nothing left to steal

They don’t want her. They hate it. But they fear the Clinton machine and Gollum ghouls that infest it.

They are waiting for that one event, that one “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up moment” when the wildebeest is off her hooves and the hyenas can pounce and feast.

That fresh young socialist chick who cloyed, cajoled and trapped the barnyard’s best young Turk catch and later transitioned to a devious and clever hen with sharp laws, has in effect become the tough, grizzled yard bird no other chickens want to be near. They all pray for the day when farmer Bob comes out to the yard with an axe and his eye on HER.

” and there is nothing left to steal”

Well yes there are a few things, and Obama is hard at work fixing that glitch - there is a treaty he is working on with China which promises to update the PLA mil by 30 years - on par or better than the US ... so you see Obama is still on his game.

With the Republican ticket pretty full and very interesting ... I think the Rats are going to sit and wait to see how it all fleshes out and determine the more precise attitude of the America electorate

They know Cankles hasn't a chance, but she IS (and always was) excellent filler materiel while they try to figure out what to do

I think they're really going to try another Jimmeh Cahtah or Bill Clinton or obozo hussein on us ....

Some kind of almost nobody that springs forth and sweeps everybody off their feet

Pretty sure that won't work this time ... but the illegals being pumped in ... and proposed to be pumped in ... are a more serious problem, imo

What if all these seasoned jihadi's from Somalia were given government sanction and an AK47 ?

That’s a real possibility too. At least you know the far left will one-day TRY to make that happen. Ruler for life.

I heard one commentator on FoxNews yesterday say that John Kerry is salivating at possibly running again, but he won’t unless Hillary’s run ends by choice or health or some similar reason.

66 million traitors voted for Traitorobama in 2012. They will have no problem voting for Satan’s daughter in 2016.

I can readily imagine a 1968 scenario unfolding in this cycle. Someone emerges to challenge Bitch Clinton as did Eugene McCarthy. A surprisingly good showing in New Hampshire or some other early going encourages Bobby Kennedy to recant his earlier disavowals and enter the race in which he very nearly wins the nomination away from the anointed designate, Hubert Horatio Humphrey. Elizabeth Warren could conceivably play the Bobby Kennedy part.

In 1968 there was one overwhelming issue, the Vietnam War which was ripping the Democrat party asunder but there is no such issue so far in this cycle the absence of which suggests that Hillary will simply coast to the nomination but her rate of deterioration is so fast, and apparently accelerating, that 1968 might well replay.

Hillary has the advantage of money and the power to intimidate but she will be forced to run the kind of primary campaign that was run by Mitt Romney in which the money is used to destroying primary opponents. Thereafter, since Hillary has no affirmative record and no positive message, I expect her to wage one of the dirtiest presidential campaigns in modern history. She can do no other.

Yeah, like spontaneous combustion or since she's probably all sopped up with alcohol, she's a walking Molotov cocktail and all it would take is to steer her near an open flame......................
