1. With these two fiascos (foreign donations to Clinton Foundation while Hillary was Sec State and e-mailgate), the long knives have come out against her and not from just Republicans. The left wing media wants her carcass on a platter. They much prefer Warren or some other far left candidate. Ron Fournier just did a big piece from someone inside the Clinton Foundation that told him to follow the money and he will find the corruption. Expect more pieces like this moving forward.

2. Hillary is an exceptionally poor candidate. She is not very likable and has very poor instincts. She is a control freak and doesn't like the press. She loves all the trappings of the office but not the love of the campaign needed to make that happen.

3. Hillary is old news. She will be 67 when and if she runs. She's been around for ever. Americans will want a change in direction and Hillary is not a change agent. She is an inside the beltway professional. I think Americans will want a fresh, new face.

4. Clinton fatigue. With these two news scandals, Americans are reminded of the old days of blue stained dresses and the meaning of the word "is."

5. Americans will want someone they trust and Clinton is an exceptionally good liar. She lied about the billing records discovered in the White House. She lied about being fired upon during a trip to a hot spot in Europe. She lied about Benghazi and the spontaneous demonstrations. She even lied to the widow of a lost loved one from Benghazi, which will make a pretty dramatic tv ad.

6. The right hates her and the left doesn't trust her. The money on the left is tied up in Clinton, but because of her missteps, I expect the money to begin to flow to other candidates since the Dems are very worried.

I hope you're right

However, I think I disagree with the "fresh face" idea. Time and time again people get elected and then re-elected just on name recognition (it seems).

I don't have much confidence in the general population. Congress had an extraordinarily bad approval rating and yet nearly every single one of them got re-elected.

I think you are underestimating the attractiveness of Bill. He will be rolled out and each of these little indescretions will be overlooked because when they look at her, they see him. Appears that his popularity rises with each new issue.

She was a total failure as a Secretary of State ...... advocating the removal of Gaddafi, the "reset" with Russia, Iraq, Syria etc etc
