I've been against HIllary from the beginning, so this is no big news or anything, but still it has occured to me that the Republican field is really hurting her chances at getting the Democratic nomination.

Imagine if Bush had a really strong popular VP who was a clear heir apparent (I said "imagine.") Someone the Republican machine and the rank and file were really going to get behind in lock step. If this was the case Hillary might have an advantage in the primaries because she could say (although not this directly,) that she is the only coldly calculating Dem candidate who has the professional (think "hit man") team behind her to take on such a challenger in the general election. Like: "You might think I'm a cold hearted bitch who only cares about getting more power, but at least I can take the fight to them. If you want to get your ass kicked again just nominate some pussy like John Edwards or some pie in the sky big picture guy like Obama and watch what happens when they run up against the Republican juggernaut."

That might have been effective. But because the Republicans have fielded the three (or four, five, or six) stooges I think she has lost a lot of tactical ground.

Not sure that makes sense but thought I'd just blurt it out since I'm a little bored here.
