I will not vote "D", but I think the pressure to draft Joe Biden will increase . People want an alternative to Hilary, without going full socialist idiocy.

Hillary will not last and Obama Administration will throw her under the bus soon if not already.... Elizabeth Warren is waiting in the wings to jump in to take over Obama destruction. Between Warren and Joe Biteme... ...which ever one comes running into the democrat party favorite, it will be late in the game so not much dirt can be kicked up ....

I agree Hillary is circling the drain. The eventual democrat nominee is likely not on the list yet.

Hillary is only circling the drain in the minds of hardcore conservatives who hate her. She hasn't even had her staff quit like John McCain who became the nominee for the pubs.

I would be very surprised if it is not Clinton/Castro v. Jeb/X.

. McCain is irrelevant to this ... Why does liberal democrat alway devert the topic to the other side instead of answering or commenting?

It was an analogy. People who think the establishment candidate is circling the drain when the prediction markets still think they are going to win are wrong.

The Drudge Report is not a good source for the state of the presidential race.

Arrogant sob
He would probably have an easier time than last time. I am the firsr person to criticize the unemployment numbers as a full employment advocate but the conventional metrics have surpassed governor romney's own metrics of success and there will not be a more formidable opponent on the economy than Romney/Ryan.

I would much rather go to battle with Barry O than Hillary.

This.

He'd be 50/50 for a third term at worst.

I watched the establishment candidate circle the drain back in 2008. All it took was a young virtually unknown charismatic junior senator from Illinois to send her down the drain. History tends to repeat itself.

It is a myth that Barack Obama was "virtually unknown." Young people were more obsessed with him than they are with Bernie Sanders today. It was truly a cult of personality since his speech at the 2004 convention.

Dick Morris and Fox News were obsessing over Hillary but it was obvious thwre was a hidden ground swell for Obama withon democratic circles.

And, there is nobody like Obama floating around this time. I agree she could lose to somebody but I don't really see that person. I love Bernie but let's face it...he looks like a mad scientist. I can't see O'Malley doing it either.

Again, I wosh there was somebody else than Hillary but I would bet that she is gonna limp to the nod.

The vast majority of young people voting in the democrat primary in 2008 likely had no idea who Barack Obama was 6 months prior to voting for him nor had a clue he spoke in the 2004 convention.

Seriously Boat. Hillary was all a Dick Morris and Fox News obsession? So nearly a decade later democratic circles that tossed her to the curb are now beating their chubs to the lying hag. They are not.

I disagree with Bernie but he means well. I respect him for his convictions and his honesty. Unfortunately looking like a mad scientist can doom you politically nowadays. Bernie looks ten times better than Martin Van Buren.

So do a lot of other democrat primary voters. Same as back in 2008. I am guessing those in democrat circles share you sentiments.

^^^^The Dems will throw her under the bus as soon as they have another manchurian candidate. SHE WILL NEVER BE PRESIDENT.

She knows it, she is just staying in the race because her and Bill are getting rich off of it.
