Pro-Obama super PAC Priorities USA positions itself to support Hillary Clinton

3. Whether she can be elected depends on how unpleasant the Republican candidate is.

If the Republican is really disgusting, she has a chance.

If the Republican is at all acceptable, Hillary Clinton will have a problem.

The establishment in the Democratic Party loves her.

Based on that alone, she should have been the nominee in 2008.

So why wasn't she? Because aspects of her personality cause her problems in relating to ordinary people. She is not an Eleanor Roosevelt. She is not a Bill Clinton.

The 2008 primary proved that she is not a Barack Obama.

We need to think outside the box. My choice is clear.

Elizabeth Warren is fresh. She gained a reputation in 2012 and the years leading to 2012 for being a friend of "the people." She is really likable.

Because of the controversy over her appointment and the excitement about her election and her tough stance on the Wall Street and banking "enemies of the people" (exaggerating but that is how they are perceived by many including many, many people who lost their homes and savings to the trickery of the bankers) have given her quite a bit of name recognition.

I think that among other things, Hillary Clinton is too much same old, same old. Same old ideas. Same old personality.

Hillary is competent which is why the party bigwigs like her. But she just isn't likable. Now I said it. It's sad but true. She is not Eleanor Roosevelt or Bill Clinton or Barack Obama. It's just something that is missing in her presentation.

So I don't want to hurt the chances of electing a Democrat by stating explicitly some of the things I am talking about. But if over all these years, she is still unaware of them and has never corrected them, I don't think she can do it now.

I'm for Elizabeth Warren. I think that Elizabeth Warren would really bring a fresh outlook. She is not all that "liberal," but she is not conservative by any means. I think she has the freshness and the personality to win people's hearts. That's what we need.
