It's about as close to a done deal as it can be.

And it doesn't surprise me at all.

Lord I hope you are wrong. I'll have to write someone in if this happens. Maybe myself. I am not quite certain why, but I find Hitlary utterly detestable. I just think her running for office is ALL about her and power. It has nothing to do with what is good for the country. I get heart burn contemplating the consequences.

I think it's long overdue that we had a woman president, and while I would much prefer Elizabeth Warren, I see Hillary as the one that can make that happen.

I don't find her all that likeable either, but I think she is a real Alpha Bitch that can get things done.

Hell, I hated LBJ, but in hindsight he got a lot of good legislation passed. Civil Rights and Medicare to name two.

She was present and capable, but has nothing I'd consider as striking acomplishments to point towards. That idiotic "Reset" idea was laughably silly. I can't think of anything great that she's ever done with the exception of marrying Bill. I wonder if I should call her a dirty name since Jeb was called an arrogant prick.

You find Hillary detesable because she may run for President and for exactly the same reasons that anybody runs for president?

She's no more ambitious than any of them. You think she's more ambitious and desirous of power than Ted Cruz or Marco? Or Rick Perry??? You think any of them give a shit about the country? Here's what she is JC, she's smarter and has more guts than anybody else currently in consideration. Throw out the name of any Republican who might run against her...it would take me less than a nanosecond to decide who I'd go out and canvass for.

And...right now (and for a long time actually) she is, in every legitimate poll taken, the most popular politician in the country. Whether you like her or not.

Didn't she have that title back in 2006? Sure, she's added to her experience, but unfortunately the results do not strike me as much in the way of positives. She is also not young and has had some recent health issues that worry me. I wanted Hilliary to win the primary in 2008, but unfortunately half the country fell for Obama's eloquent BS. Hell, I still can't understand how people could choose Obama over Hilliary.
