After handing the Democrat Party one of the most decisive losses in recent political history, Republicans have fixed their mean ole, rightwing, “assault weapon” cross-hairs on the Democrats 2016 last hope for power: Hillary Clinton.
Aside from a few names that have been circulated around as being possible candidates for the 2016 Democrat presidential nomination , Clinton is considered to be the only real choice for her party.After all, doesn’t she deserve it? Isn’t it her turn? Shouldn’t it have been her all along?
Yuval Levin, editor of the National Affairs quarterly and author, offered this poignant smack down of the heir apparent to the Democrat Party throne:

But . . . people are bored of her and feel like she has been talking at them forever. . . . She is a dull, grating, inauthentic, over-eager, insipid elitist with ideological blinders yet no particular vision and is likely to be reduced to running on a dubious promise of experience and competence while faking idealism and hope — a very common type of presidential contender in both parties, but one that almost always loses.”-WaPo
Levin is dead on right with his assessment of Hillary.
Now, I don’t necessarily believe what many pundits and writers saying about Hillary, in that Americans are “bored” with her.I think the Americans are more numb to her over-exposure than bored.
Remember, since before ‘Bubba” Clinton took office, and ruled the White House with his ‘iron cigar,’ Hillary injected herself into public opinion and has been front-and-center in the spotlight by running and winning a U.S. Senate seat, and most recently, taking the reigns as Secretary of State.
Expect Benghazi to haunt her in the next couple of years. Bet on it. You can also bank on the fact that Republicans will tighten that 1993 “Hillarycare” noose she has hanging around her neck.
To win in 2016, Hillary needs to reinvent herself to Americans. In other words, she needs to run a similar presidential campaign as the one she ran against Obama in 2008, only this time she may need to cut and dye her hair, or something.

Her little slip the other day, and its dismissal by the mainstream media as being taken out of context, about how she believes that ‘businesses don’t create jobs’ was a glimpse into how jaded Hillary Clinton and her jaded liberal ideology really are
Don’t let anybody, don’t let anybody tell you that, ah, you know, it’s corporations and businesses that create jobs. You know that old theory, trickle-down economics.That has been tried, that has failed. It has failed rather spectacularly.-Hillary Clinton
So let’s say that Hillary does win the 2016 Democrat presidential nomination, which Republican would have the best chance to beat her?
Jeb Bush, with his unabated support for amnesty for illegal immigrants and Common Core education standards?Marco Rubio, who many believe has the ability to reach out and connect with many political and ethnic groups.
How about a Ted Cruz, who has been demonized by the left as being an “extremist,” yet conservatives seem to favor him over others in the possible Republican presidential field because he has proven to one who sticks to his values and principles?
There is also Texas Governor Rick Perry, who job-creation prowess probably makes him the top choice for President on the GOP ticket, considering that the number one issue concerning Americans is job creation.
Recent polling has Hillary besting all of these possible candidates by double-digits, but this will soon change as the 2016 elections grows near, and once Americans get the opportunity to be doused with the amount of media coverage of Hillary has long enjoyed.
The Republican presidential nominee will have his day, Hillary already had hers.But who will it be:
