Carville: 90% of Democrats want Hillary in 2016
“I don’t know what she’s going to do, but I do know this: The Democrats want her to run. And I don’t just mean a lot of Democrats. I mean a whole lot of Democrats, like 90 percent across the country,” Carville said. “We just want to win. We think she’s the best person and shut it down. And that’s across the board.”
But Republican political adviser – and Carville’s wife- Mary Matalin said it’s unlikely the Secretary of State would be able to clear the field.
“I wish she would run. But it defies human nature to think that Democrats, even though they are redistributionist and utopians, would not be competitive, that [Virginia Senator Mark] Warner or all these other Democrats who’ve been waiting in the wings are going to have a dynasty, since Democrats are always complaining about these dynasties, they’re going to have another Clinton step up, and everyone’s going to go, yeah, step back? I don’t think so,” Matalin said.

So taking the Mittbots argument on why we should vote for Mitt I guess we should also vote for Hillary because she isn’t Obama.

AKA – thieves and Marxists. Hillary should fit right in.

Wow…Carville is a political genius (sarcasm). I could have told you this.

About the best we can hope for is that a$$-ugly witch has a heart attack on the inauguration platform.

And she will win…look at how weak the Republican’s have become…

Mary, Mary, Mary…even you fall for this…they only complain when it’s Republican’s. They had no problem with the Kennedy’s, and they would have no problem with Clinton’s. Michelle would probable be accepted.

If given the choice, they probably wanted her in 2012, also.

So 90% of Democrats either don’t know or don’t care about Hillary’s contribution in getting American citizens murdered in Benghazi? Not the least bit curious about how that all happened? Have no interest in hearing some facts before making this declaration of support? Blind loyalty?
Sheeple.

Oh brother….just what this country needs. Another “historical” democrat. Barf.

She will run. It will be based on a joint presidency because BO has “been there done that”. Both have said more than once that it will take more than 8 years to fix the problems caused by Bush. Besides the dems and liberals can’t pass up having the first black woman president. Especially knowing how fantastic she is and having her in the limelight for 8 years.

Only because there’s noone else they’d rather have right now. But she’ll be tossed overboard again, just as soon as a new celebrity cult-like demogogue is found.

Actually, I’m wondering if that’s why they are pushing for Hillary so much.
OldEnglish on December 10, 2012 at 10:53 AM
I’d say there’s about a 3% chance mooshelle will run. She doesn’t seem to love the stump like barky. She loves vacationing and am sure is looking forward to moving into their new McMansion in HI.
I think the odds that Hillary runs are entirely dependent upon how terrible Obama’s second term is, which if history is any guide, should be nothing short of calamitous.

Oh come on. He personally whacked OBL, brought peace to Iraq and Afghanistan, rejuvenated the economy, and became the savior of America’s
vaginas.
Give the guy his due.

The Buffoon of Benghazi for the Airheads of America.
