You are right that she would never challenge another Dem.
She is greater than that..
She has loyalty to country & constitution.

Q: Should Hillary return to the Senate in 2018? [View all] kristopher May 2017 OP

No. Kentonio May 2017 #1

How do you feel about Bernie running again when this term is up? nt JTFrog May 2017 #45

That's his decision to make. Vermont is his home state and he has served them loyally for many years Kentonio May 2017 #49

Lol! JTFrog May 2017 #50

I'm confused by why you think there's any comparison Kentonio May 2017 #51

Lol. JTFrog May 2017 #55

Well you're the one creating a Sanders comparison Kentonio May 2017 #58

Because I know there is nothing that would make you say Sanders shouldn't and nothing JTFrog May 2017 #60

Not really, I just think we have a broad field of talent in the party Kentonio May 2017 #62

I agree with you....... kerry-is-my-prez May 2017 #82

There is NO comparison - Hillary is far more qualified. This isn't about seniority. Lil Missy May 2017 #142

I'd call 8 terms in the house and many years of mayoral experience Kentonio May 2017 #145

She would be an EXCELLENT justice. american_ideals May 2017 #44
