#1 Hillary was doing a pretty good job of paralyzing the campaign herself. Paralyzing things is what a Gorgons Head is for.

"She’s married to a man who was the worst abuser of women in the history of politics,"

In all fairness, it's been a while, I believe it still takes two dancers.

#3 Bill Clinton was a very natural politician. Hillary is not, not even close. She looks fake doing just about anything and only rabid partisan loyalties have kept her bouyed this long. I think she'll be crushed in November.

#5 Actually I don't think she'll be the candidate.

1-two weeks before convention she'll drop out for "health reasons"
2- The party will nominate Biden/Warren (aka Fauxcahontas")as the ticket to appease all the Bernie lovers
3- For her cooperation, she'll receive a full pardon for all (alleged) transgressions
4- Obama gets his 3rd term
5- Repubs spent all the time/$ on Hildebeast opposition research and now have to scramble to attack "Groper" Joe

#6 Well Warthog, we don't actually see any of the Obama team rucking up and moving off to other jobs do we? Little to report on the Obama library either.

Your theory has been in my top 3-5 for quite some time. He did move to increase his own post-presidential retirement pay however. He's probably keeping all options open.

#8 #6: Couldn't the next president issue an executive order to reduce/annul the previous president's retirement pay? Couldn't the next president also issue an executive order to remove the Secret Service protection from the previous president? I thought the precedent had already been set on these executive orders.
