Or taking a serious look at reality? On one hand, I don't see any strong Repukes that could possibly win in the general (Christie was polling well a couple of months ago, but he's in the toilet for the next three years at least) and on the other hand, I don't see any serious opposition forming to Hillary Clinton. I mean, who's going on the Sunday talking head shows, trying to set themselves up for a bit of name familiarity?

Forget Elizabeth Warren, she's backing Hillary, who would be wise to put her on the ticket in the VP slot. It would calm down a LOT of voters on our side.
