    I agree Sly, she’s building her support for another run. If Pelosi gets the gavel that’s another indicator.

    How is Pelosi an indicator of Hillary's intentions?

    Im thinking if the dem's really wanted new synergy and representation they will not re-appoint Pelosi rather go with someone new representing a peal off form the old guard.
    But if Pesloi retains majority support even over some that would like her to move aside, thats a power play that Hillary could also use. Im just saying could, if she see's there is strong support for here still why wouldn't she run? Think she wants to simply retire and phase out of the limelight? Whats do you think/guess that Hillary would like to do from here on out? Ant thoughts?

    An election by congresspeople, where there are no serious challengers, is very different than a series of primaries by voters, where lots of people want the job.

    I agree, with that. Hillary isn't afraid to ask young guns to stand down as it her time once again.
    Its just a guess on my part.

    I don't see any way that Clinton will be the democratic nominee. She might show some interest but when the polls come out she will likely step down.

    She's not even registered so this is nothing more than fake news.

    There's virtually zero increased standard of living for the middle and lower classes. You must be thinking of the upper class.
    What happened to his no. 1 and guaranteed promise that Mexico would pay for his imaginary wall? What's he gonna do, shut down the government and stomp his feet and pound his tiny fists if he doesn't get his way? Oh sure, I suppose he's gonna shut down the government proudly. What a chump.

    Why not didn't she get 3 million more votes than Trump?
    If Bill works with her this time around (he can still fill a coliseum with women of all sorts) and they focus on the mid west, why not?
    I hope not, but they are like political engineers Lanny in that they just look at where a subtle change is needed, no big deal.

    Because she's fallen out of favor with too many Democrats.

    Now, mind you, I wouldn't be heart broken if she took the Presidency away from Trump. I just don't see her winning the nomination. If I don't see it, who does?
