24. Lets just back a Kennedy instead

I agree with you totally that imperial families are a problem. It is a shame that Republicans don't consider saner voices like Huntsman. This die was cast when Obama made his VP and SoState picks - I think that was HRC's price for her and Bill's support in the general election. The SoState was the last resume builder HRC needed. I wonder if any Democratic challenger will bring up her failure to offer additional security in Libya (the other stuff is crap but that could be a legitimate issue of executive decision making).
