\u201cFought children and families all her career.” \u00a0Typo? Or Freudian slip? \u00a0Proof that you can’t really kill Truth, after all?<\/p>\n

For Conservatives this is probably the best thing that could have happened. \u00a0Jeb Bush’s chances just went down the toilet. \u00a0One can hope that he’ll get a dose of reality and take his name out of consideration and save us a lot of money beating him, but I think the odds are better for Boehner growing a pair.<\/p>\n

Cruz, Walker and Paul have something better to campaign against than each other. \u00a0If those three, in particular, resist the pressure that will be put on them to engage in a Mexican firing squad, remember Reagan’s 11th commandment and rise above pettiness, one of them will be in the White House.<\/p>\n

Progressives simply won’t get it. \u00a0Until it’s too late. \u00a0And the they’ll scream “not fair” until their faces turn blue. \u00a0Music to my ears.<\/p>\n

What happens if she is doing so badly she decides to drop out, after the deadline to file as a candidate<\/i>? \u00a0Will the Dems file a suit in court to get a replacement candidate? \u00a0Hope not. \u00a0They have the right to present a candidate, not the entitlement to do so. \u00a0If they want to screw the pooch this badly, they can live with their choice.<\/p>\n

A Hillary candidacy is probably the best hope of a filibuster and veto proof Senate. \u00a0Tie the Presidential election and Senate election to wiping out Progressivism for our generation.<\/p>\n

This also gives a very<\/i>\u00a0real opportunity to advance the job of cleaning out Progressives from the Republican party – especially in the House. \u00a0Conservatives ought to start vetting and grooming those candidates now. \u00a0With Boehner’s strong stand against Obama – not<\/b>\u00a0– Hillary is our best hope of making this his last term. \u00a0Or at least last term as Speaker.<\/p>\n
