Hillary in 2016? Not so Fast
American Thinker ^ | December 5, 2014 | By Melanie Kowalski

Posted on 12/15/2014 2:56:12 AM PST by kingattax

It was not such a long time ago that former Secretary of State and First Lady Hillary Clinton was viewed by the Democratic poobahs and her worshiping public minions as a shoe-in for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination, and ultimately the White House. But life happens, and life has found Hillary Clinton.

In a recent Politico article, "Delay of Game", we're getting another read-between-the lines indication that Clinton, Inc. a.k.a. “Billary” (Bill + Hillary = Billary) is in rethink/regroup mode. This run for the presidency is as much Bill’s as it is Hillary. And she will need him in full campaign/strategy mode if she has any shot at all for the presidency. But are “they” running?

It's been common knowledge since the media began profiling the public Hillary all the way back to her Wellesley days that she was considered to have the necessary bona fides and moxie to become the first female President of the United States. Now in the waning days of 2014, Hillary's early 2015 announcement for the upcoming bid for the White House is changing from a bullet train into a heavily laden freight train which may yet derail.

Isn’t she doing alcohol rehab right now? Nat’l Enquirer is writing that.

Not mention the fact that she has a serious drinking problem.

Because nothing says "youthful energy and vitality" more than nominating a worn-out, angry, cognitively fading, hard-drinking wrinkled old witch to carry your party's battle flag into the 2016 election.

She’s old, tired, boring and pickled. Time to go bake some cookies for the family with Billy.

"Her worshiping public".

Buy a clue. She does not HAVE a worshiping public.

Gerald Ford stumbled and he was sober. The press never let up on him for it.

Why Hillary is aka The Flying Buttress. That whole plane must have shook!

She’s about to get punked again; first it was Obama, now Fauxcahontas. Both bad news for America.

Ted Cruz in 2016 or we are so royally screwed.

If she’s not running, why am I getting requests for contributions from the “Ready for Hillary” campaign?

Results matter. Hillary has no results to run on. She did nothing as a Senator and did harm as Secretary of State.

That said, she is still better qualified than Elizabeth Warren.

The quality of Presidential candidates continues to erode even beyond our current bottom-of-the-barrel-Barry.

If she’s healthy, she’s running. I would rather have Elizabeth Warren running though. Then we could elect our first female and first native American to the white house...

Besides Lieawatha in Taxachusetts, Jerry Brown (who at least has executive experience) and de Blasio (who is utterly unfit for office, but has the Marxist, sexist, and racist bonafides to contend for the nomination) have been spotlighted. It's difficult to tell whether these oh-woe-is-me articles are diversions planted by Hitlery's water carriers or whether they indicate that the Demwits really do recognize that she's a train wreck and three time loser (marrying Bill; lost to Zero in 2008; Benghazi).

Hillary may be elected president, after all you Yanks elected a pot smoking, draft dodging, philander over a bona fide war hero, so ya just never know but she was a shoe in in 2008 and how did that work out?

Because she can keep campaign money and spend it on booze and horrid pant suits even if she doesn’t run for office.

It will be hard for her to campaign in states which involve a lot of going out and meeting the voters, like Iowa and New Hampshire, if she has to go days on end with no drinks before 9 or 10 p.m. Even then people may notice if she is obviously hung over at 8 a.m. campaign stops at diners.
