Might as well get this started because if I was a betting man, I'd wager that she's our next president.

Does anyone honestly think she's not going to cruise to a victory?

Too soon to know what will happen.  I mean, do we even have any idea who she will be up against yet?

I think that's part of the problem.

We know it'll be a Republican, so there goes...what?...40% of the vote immediately with zero chance of getting it back?

Name one Republican you'd vote for right now. To make it fun, don't think of them as running against her. Just them running alone.

The most interesting thing about her running will be the male Democrat votes. I'd be very curious to see what their turnout numbers are if she wins the nod, and how many of them vote against their party in the presidential election. Let's see what the bigger problem is in this country, racism or misogyny.

My point is that as of this date back in 2006 no one had even heard of Obama yet.  He didn't even announce he was running until the equivalent of next February.  

Who knows who will pop up between now and next year.

EDIT: In fact I bet if we looked back at the old threads from May of 2006 we may find that Hillary was woefully considered a lock back then, too.  Well, if GORDON hadn't gone and deleted it all.  :p

EDIT2: Hah!  From the equivalent of October of 2015, but, you know, eight years ago:

Ladies and gentlemen, your Democratic front runner, Hillary Clinton.


Yes, but I said front runner, and she was, so I wasn't wrong.

Now if 2016 rolls around and she's not the nominee or doesn't win the presidency, then bring this up, and my response will be "Thankfully, I was wrong."

Based on everything we know since this chain was created, would those odds have gone up, down, or remain unchanged?

I've got to go with unchanged or maybe even up.

Sure, maybe she's somewhat responsible for folks in Benghazi getting killed, and maybe she was corrupt as fuck before she became a senator, and maybe she's married to a guy who kinda, sorta was involved with a guy pimping out underage girls, but she's still a woman, still a Clinton, and still a Democrat. Plus, show me a Republican who is even remotely electable BEFORE the left leaning MSM starts slamming him/her.

Anyway, why am I resurrecting this thread today? Because a co-worker just showed me this ad.

Not my fault they've forgotten their job is sucking the press's collective cock while simultaneously punching the public in the balls.

No respectable human being runs for the office of prez anymore.  Being mentally diseased is a prereq.

Like "foreign" foreign or "tax shelter" foreign?

Mohammed Al-Amoudi, a billionaire businessman who lives in Ethiopia and Saudi Arabia, retired German race car driver Michael Schumacher, and Denis O'Brien, the Irish chairman of Digicel phone company, each donated between $5 million and $10 million.

Retired race car driver?  Hmm, apparently he has lots of cash.

Obama got a shitload of foreign money through his website that didn't have any checks to exclude foreign donors, as well.  Nobody cared.

My expectation of politicians has nothing to do with the voters not giving a fuck.  It has to do with the politicians being greedy, corrupt douchebags.

The point is if people cared more about that than Honey Boo Boo, the politicians would get away with less and the voters would force more honesty.

It's like this country is Boogie Nights. We're Little Bill and politicians are our wife. We keep showing complete apathy for their corruption and bullshit so they have no motivation to change. And just like the film, we know how it ends, the only variable is when.

The voters have spoken.  They don't want competence or honesty.  They want meaningless platitudes and vague promises.
