(25,406 posts)They could pick a moderate, and many of them did in quite a few states, Pennsylvania comes to mind. She didn't do badly in the rest of the South, and it would be good to have a candidate who appeals regionally to them in the general election. I don't see Warren or Cuomo being able to do that, although O'Malley could. But Hillary was the first lady of a Southern state, and that's going to carry her further down there than anybody I can think of who might jump in.
As for the Repukes picking a dingbat, what else do they have? Rand Paul, Ted Cruz and Chris Christie are all going to be a tough sell for that party three years from now. Who's their statesman who would rally not only the troops, but the mushy middle?
This is hers if she wants it.
