Don't think for a moment I'm assuming Hillary will be inaugurated in 2017. The odds of her stumbling and falling I believe are very high. But if by some miracle she wins, it will be an historic journey for our first lady President. (Yes, I started a thread called "America's Iron Lady" earlier, but I like this title better) Plus, it will be a miracle if America elects a Democrat in 2016 after eight years of Obummer.

I see her waddling rather than marching.

So tomorrow Hillary is expected to announce. Is it just a coincidence that it's on the same day Season Five of Game of Thrones starts? If Hillary was a character on GOT, who would she be?

The dems were desperate to be the party electing a half black man now they're just as desperate to elect a half woman.

Or the Republicons can give us some half men. Look how much Cheney had to fill in for a vacant Bush.

You are asking a lot. The republicans have no one that can beat Killary

It's amazing is how much I don't give a crap who the next Prez is. And we still have 19 months of election to go. But I do like watching politicians make fools of themselves.

If the country can survive 8 years of a circus clown known as Obama then our country can survive Killary but don't count out Elizabeth Warren. I hear Russia wants her.

Here's something just for you, Turk, from Al Jazeera:america.aljazeera.com/opinions/2015/4/readyforhillary-the-case-is-remarkably-thin.html"She ran a bad campaign in 2008 and, despite all her advantages of name recognition, lost to a charismatic but obscure newcomer. But apparently that now anoints her as the rightful successor to the man who beat her. This argument strikes me as evidence that American political culture has become thoroughly, perhaps fatally, sclerotic. A country that looks more and more like a frank plutocracy, with a deeply alienated and atomized population and rotting social and physical infrastructure, needs something fresher than another Clinton. (That her opponent could be yet another Bush is even more depressing.) What could we expect from a Hillary presidency? My guess is that it would be Wall Street–friendly, militarized and secretive — though seasoned with mostly empty rhetoric about uplift, community and inclusion. It would do little to address polarization and rot. In fact it would be a perfect embodiment of polarization and rot. There will be strenuous efforts over the next year and a half to argue otherwise, but they will convince no one but loyalists."

Honestly, I thought Obama's election would be the ruin of America. Freedom was history. Democracy was dead. I was certain civil war was unavoidable. The country was toast. I spend 10 grand on weapons and ammo. I even considered relocating to Costa Rica. I understand why Slick Willy fool’s around. If I were married to dry toast I’d fool around also. Killary makes groping a way of life. tinyurl.com/kff3t7l If this country can survive Obama we can survive the First Dude screwing every skirt.

Killary following in Bill's shoes, bombing Aspirin factories. What fun. Saturday Night Live will become prime time. The question American needs to know. Will Killary wear a blue dress? We need some fun. Elect Killary and give the right heartburn.
