Boehner's scenario: Clinton may drop out, clear way for Biden The Daily Briefing By John T. Bennett CQ-Roll Call • Sunday May 15, 2016 8:53 PM

Vice President Joe Biden and former House Speaker John Boehner share a moment as they take the stage for the University of Notre Dame commencement ceremony. Both were on hand Sunday to receive the Laetare Medal.

Out with Hillary Clinton. In with Vice President Joe Biden.

At least that’s what former House Speaker John A. Boehner thinks could happen should federal prosecutors opt to slap criminal charges on the former secretary of state over her use of a private email server while in that position.

During a speaking engagement Thursday at a conference in Las Vegas, the now-retired Ohio Republican said he “would not be surprised at all” if Clinton has to withdraw from the presidential race if she faces charges, according to news reports.

Boehner believes Biden then “parachutes in” to take on presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump.

The collective IQ between those two is about a buck-oh-five.

And the Democrat voters will fall right in line for someone who received no votes during the primary. Something tells me that Sanders’ voters will not take that lying down. I just don’t see it happening, especially since Hillary will do anything, sell anything and anybody to become President. She’s not just going to go away without a fight!!!

Clinton doesn’t dare back out of a campaign that keeps her out of jail.

Ann Barnhardt called Biden ‘borderline retarded’ in her new video. Natch, Democrats will vote for him.

What does that make Paul Ryan, considering that Biden ate his lunch during their debate.

Ryan embarrassed himself by not going after the laughing madman of a VP during that debate...unbelievable.

There could be the promise of a pardon...

That is going to be the deal, cite health reasons to leave and the case goes away.

It was by design that he lose that debate. I am convinced of it.

I agree. She’s just using this “election” as a way to build her retirement nest egg. Socialists are such fools but they do tend to look out for one another when they are stealing other people’s money.

Exactly. Hillary will not stand for being part of a switcheroo at the last minute. She wants the presidency. If she’s denied the Democratic nomination again you might want to get out of the way especially if you’re a Democrat bigwig. Her wrath and revenge tirade will be a doozy because she knows this is it for her presidential chances. We were all anticipating the Carnage in Cleveland. We might get the Pandemonium in Philly instead.
