30. May I suggest worrying about 2014 first?

from the court house to the US House? Please?

We do not know if Clinton is running. We do not know who else is running.
Back in 2008 in my listing Obama and Clinton were my #5 and #6 picks behind Edwards, Richardson and I can't remember who else. Both were way to cozy with the corporations. Yet when Obama became the nominee I supported him 100%.

Clinton is still way too cozy with the corporations for my taste. Yet I will support her if she is the nominee.

But like many on here I would much prefer an Elizabeth Warren candidacy. She is also quite aware of the Hobby Lobby ramifications and I believe would not be too worried about hurting their feelings on anything.

There may be other candidates who will outshine Hillary. I think any serious candidate for the democratic nomination understands that this will be a major issue and understands how women feel.
