though I disagree with the OP's assertion that Christie would destroy her.

There are a few people I'd like to see run, Warren is one of them. Grayson, Sanders (as a Dem if that's possible), even Dean. Also agree with a poster upthread that Warren could make a good AG, or why not Secretary of the Treasury? I want her watching over the banks, with authority.

Christie does scare me, as does Jeb Bush, they are both intelligent and articulate, and very much right-wingers whose policies would suck. I have no idea how they would stack up differently vs. HRC as opposed to vs. one of the progressives I would like to see run. It's very hard to tell how such dynamics will play out, that's why we have campaigns and elections.
