Absconded in the Senate, she will be politely isolated, a marginally effective gadfly who mighy have some regional influence. As president, she could lead Democrats to retake the Party, since we have become too fractious with ourselves, and are unable to effect that change at the local level.

She is the ONLY Democratic on the national scene with the views and with the juice to effect serious change in the face of an increasingly aggressive corporate state.
