Surely there's some Democrat out there who can stop this Hillary trainwreck

Or put it this way: even Martin O’Malley would be a better candidate than Hillary Clinton.

The fact that Hillary has been running in an open election as if she were the incumbent is fairly unprecedented in modern politics. Considering her history, it’s astonishing that no one has primaried the former First Lady. One problem with coronations is that candidates are not tested (Obama improved during his own primary.) The other problem is that sometimes you coronate the wrong person. Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton emerged with relatively low name-ID and slim chances to win. For a party, it can also be tremendously risky, especially when the lucky candidate comes with serious ethical struggles that can pop up at any time.

In a recent Gallup poll, Americans say the most positive thing about a second Clinton presidency would be having the first female president. Hillary, it should be noted, is not the only woman in America. She’s not even close to being the most competent woman in America. Or, let’s just say: Elizabeth Warren would surely be a candidate that would represent the concerns of liberals far better than Hillary Clinton.
