(14,195 posts)She will not get a cake walk coronation this time either, no matter how many times you post stuff like this. It is a long time until the nomination, and longer still until the election. There WILL be a primary, she *might* win that tho there is not as much certainty as you seem to feel.
Then there will be a general election. I honestly believe if HRC is our nominee we will lose because many progressives dislike her war hawk, big business, banker friendly tendencies and will not trust her new populist messages on helping the middle class. She can parrot Elizabeth Warrens words, but sounds inauthentic doing it. Then there are the Republicans who detest all things Clinton as much as they detest president Obama. They will come out in droves to vote ABC - Anybody But Clinton.
