When the dust settles, the GOP will have caved and voters will take the RINO they are handed.

/s/ Sunshine + Optimism

I have quoted Quiller because I have a question about his signature cartoons. Number one, how do you get a strip like that? Is there some way or some sort of program out there to make my own and then upload it?

And number two, whats the welcome wagon one about? It's the squirel I don't get. Many years ago, before most folks even knew there was an internet. I knew someone who, well lets just say is/was "unique" lol. They used that, as a username too, so I can't help but wonder if it's some how a ref to them.

I don't think she'll be a candidate much longer.  She'll have to withdraw.  -Probably by July.  Until then, the baggage will simply keep amassing, alongwith the increasingly disquieting spousal-factor.

You may be onto something. There is so much baggage the democrats cannot carry it all.

That's been the hope and plan of the Dim party all along, to damage her. They know she hasn't a chance in Hell of winning, but truth is, no one on the left has a better chance than her. How sad is that?

They have someone in mind if they are really trying to knock off their front runner! I say Obama's buddy Kerry! We are going to see the hard sell that this Iran deal is the greatest Achievement since the Japanize surrender! They are going to portray him as the greatest diplomat we have ever seen to accomplish such a wonderful goal! Hillary has no record at State to speak of and with the LSM they will toss her aside!!

I don't think she will drop out. She has no problems taking down the party in her attempts to win the presidency.

She will napalm the village if need be.

Right now they're pushing O'Malley, but he too will crash and burn.

Kerry, O'Malley Among Top 10 Hillary Challengers

The latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll showed the former secretary of state rated favorably by 42% of likely voters nationwide and 42% unfavorably. This is down from March, when the same poll showed Clinton's favorable-unfavorable at 44%-36%.
Here are some "Hillary challengers" being mentioned:

1. John Kerry, 71, Clinton's successor as secretary of state, was the nearly-successful Democratic nominee against George W. Bush in 2004. The former Massachusetts senator remains a sentimental favorite among his party's liberal grass roots and can always count on needed funding, thanks to wife Teresa Heinz Kerry (widow of the late Republican Sen. John Heinz, heir to the ketchup fortune). No friend of the Clintons, Kerry delivered a key endorsement to Obama at a critical point in the '08 nomination battle with then-New York Sen. Hillary Clinton. Some Obama acolytes are said to be courting Kerry, who came within the electoral votes of one state (Ohio) of unseating Bush in '04.

2. Al Gore, 67, also evokes warm sentiments among grass-roots Democrats, many of whom believe he actually won the disputed 2000 election against Bush. It is no secret that Bill Clinton's vice president has grown distant from his ticket mate and, like Kerry, he supported Obama over Hillary Clinton in '08. Working against a "Gore II" bid are his divorce from wife Tipper, unfavorable reviews for recent speeches on his personal crusade for climate change, and some weight gain. Climate change continues to animate the Democratic left, so Gore remains viable.

3. Jerry Brown, 77, incredibly, is governor of California today and its oldest governor, 40 years after becoming the Golden State's youngest governor. Once ridiculed as "Gov. Moonbeam" for his meanderings about outer space, Brown has lost three past bids for the Democratic nomination. Now legally termed out from ever running for governor again in 2018, no one rules out a fourth Brown bid for the nomination.

4. Andrew Cuomo, 57, was just re-elected to his second term as governor of New York and, having served as Bill Clinton's housing secretary, has good relations with the Clinton family and its political organization. The son of the late New York Gov. Mario Cuomo —a  beloved liberal icon in his heyday — the younger Cuomo has tried to hold the line on spending in the Empire State to the consternation of the left. Known for his hair-trigger temper, Cuomo lives with girlfriend Sandy Lee. With the indictment of Democratic Assembly Speaker and close ally Sheldon Silver, recent polls show the governor's popularity plummeting.

5. Former Virginia Sen. Jim Webb, 69, insists he's running, but as nationally-syndicated columnist Michael Barone noted to Newsmax, "he won his only Senate term [in '06] with anti-war Northern Virginia liberals who don't want him as president now." A best-selling novelist, decorated U.S. Marine Corps veteran in Vietnam and briefly secretary of the navy under Republican President Ronald Reagan, Webb stunned Old Dominion Democrats by unseating Sen. George Allen in '06 only to announce his retirement in '12.

6. Former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley, 52, dubbed during his stint as mayor of Baltimore as the Democratic Party's "hottest political property since Jack Kennedy" by Chris Matthews, is seriously exploring the race. Working against him is a record number of tax increases while he was governor and his chosen heir losing the governorship to Republican Larry Hogan in a state that went 62 percent for Obama.

7. Rahm Emanuel 55, is an intriguing prospect, months after being re-elected mayor of Chicago over a spirited left-of-center challenger. Once top political adviser in the Clinton White House and Obama's first chief of staff, Emmanuel as mayor took a hard line against demands of striking teachers. Uber-agent brother Ari could bring in heavy Hollywood endorsements.

8. New York's Mayor Bill de Blasio, 54, an unabashed leftist, has sparked recent speculation about running. He recently made a tour through the Midwest touting a progressive agenda. De Blasio's black wife and son, whom he proudly points to as a modern mixed family, could draw significant black votes in Democratic primaries.

9. Deval Patrick, 58, was the first black governor of Massachusetts (he left office in January) and one-time head of the Civil Rights Division in the U.S. Department of Justice. Reportedly a personal friend of President Obama's, the former governor made news recently with a spirited defense of the rollout of Obamacare in his state. Obama proved that a black candidate in the Democratic party starts with an enormous base.

10. Joe Biden, 72, brings out one intriguing common denominator among political scientists and Democratic operatives Newsmax spoke to: not one so much as mentioned the name of the vice president, who no doubt would like to be a candidate. Biden, who will be 73 in 2016, is the second-oldest vice president in history after fellow Democrat Alben Barkley (Harry Truman's vice president, who was 74 when he left office). Said to be disliked by Obama and his entourage, Biden is popular among rank-and-file Democrats.

I'm sure Hilary has a bigger one than O'Malley.
