(24,411 posts)Hillary Clinton ran in 08, and all it took was a junior Senator to knock her off her "anointed" block.
It really didn't take much.
Support for her is lukewarm, at best, in the Democratic party.
She's too much of a neocon. Her banging the war drum for Iran, while Bush was President--nearly sent me over the edge. She knows damn well what these neocon bastards are up to. They all asked her husband for war with Iraq when he was President. Then-President Bill Clinton refused. She can't pretend not to know.
She's a corporatized powerbroker.
I hear next to nothing from her about policies that matter.
If she's our nominee, I will be politically homeless. I wish her well, but I do not want her as our nominee at all.
And, "But do you want Jeb to win?!?!" is a pretty pathetic response. We MUST nominate someone else!!!!
