Rothschild is a nasty piece of work, but it may just be that Hilary is doing a favor, and didn't select the venue.

"..Marjorie Margolies, who is running for a House seat in Pennsylvania. Margolies, who held the seat in the early 1990s but lost it after she cast the tie-breaking vote to pass Bill Clinton's 1993 budget, is a Clinton in-law. Her son, Marc Mezvinsky, is married to Chelsea Clinton."

2016 is not important. If we focus our attention on 2016 too late in the game and Hillary cruises to the nomination, so be it. She's unbeatable anyway.

Specifically

She's unbeatable anyway.

No politician is "unbeatable" and I recall the same stupid claim being made about her back in 2008.

She has massive negatives barring her path to the Presidency.

First and foremost is Bill, have you noticed that Lewinsky is making an appearance again?

Second, the (admittedly non-existent) Whitewater scandal.

Third, the foolish "Clinton Body Count" which is still making the rounds of the RW sites

Fourth, Benghazi!!!!111!11

Fifth, Bill. The narrative that will be sold that Bill is just going to get round Term Limits

this is after a successful Black President....and again...it doesn't matter WHICH Democrat wins if we don't win back the House. The same thing happens that ALWAYS happens....we lose every bit of good Progressive ground we made and THEN some.....

Don't worry about 2016....worry about 2014 instead.

all with the same "Hillary is inevitable" meme. I'm sure it's just coincidence.
