(2,949 posts)She is the only way the Democrats keep the White House.
Brief explanation...
The Dems do not have a message that works. as proven in the last two midterms and the fact that Obama had no coattail affects in the last general election. Obama won because he is black. A condition that had blacks come to the polls in unprecedented numbers.
In the last midterms Dems ran as far as possible from Obama consequently the blacks did not vote and they lost.
The only way to win is to run Hillary and get the female vote. I have personal friends (female) that have told me they have given up on voting as the government is all corrupt and there is no difference between the two parties. They did say "If Hillary runs i will vote otherwise I wont waste my time."
I worked all these elections and know about turnout in all three.
