Hillary should withdraw as a candidate now. Elizabeth Warren could be the compromise candidate.

The Inspector Generals report is the straw that broke the camels back .... and surely more is to come.

Trump would destroy Clinton in the election and take down many Democratic candidates for the House and Senate.

Clinton should withdraw to clear the way for a compromise candidate to be nominated at the convention. A huge majority of delegates would vote for Elizabeth Warren

Elizabeth Warren for President and Bernie Sanders as her Vice-Presidential candidate would be a strong winning ticket and I think Bernie would be agreeable to that compromise.

This would be an incredibly strong ticket with huge favorable ratings that would crush Trump and retake Democratic control of the Senate and maybe the House in the general election.

1. Better read the entire story, not accept lines and chosen words as facts

[imagine2015]

4. What lines? Not a single story line was used in this post. I don't need to. Hillary is finished.

Her poll numbers will continue to drop ..... a lot.

2. This forum is divorced from reality

[auntpurl]

6. Seriously!

[imagine2015]

3. Elizabeth Warren sounds like she's getting ready to take on Trump!

I'm sure the idea is being raised with Warren. I think she is now preparing to become the compromise candidate as super delegates abandon Hillary Clinton and the pressure mounts on Clinton to end her candidacy.

Warren's political attacks on Trump have been strong and very effective.

Hillary's .... not so much.

5. ???

1. Hillary is not going to be indicted
2. Hillary is polling ahead of Trump, while she's fighting a 2-way war. Her poll numbers will rise when she is the candidate and no longer being attacked by Dems AND by the RW at the same time.
3. NO ONE has voted for Elizabeth Warren for president. Why would a candidate who literally no one has voted for have strong support?
4. Hillary is winning by 3 million votes and many delegates. Why on earth would she withdraw?

This is a very strange post.

13. She won't be indicted, but she's behind in the polls at moment.

It's early so she could win big easily or lose big easily.

7. LOL

8. If Warren wanted to run for POTUS, why didn't she?

I would agree that she would be a fine compromise candidate...many of Sanders supporters were initially Warren supporters hoping she'd run. And I think even Sanders held back on declaring, in case she decided to run. She decided then not to run, and I don't see that anything has changed that would induce her to change her mind. I also very much doubt she'd run with Sanders still in the race.

[imagine2015]

9. Because Bernie Sanders declared his candidacy and she didn't want to split the liberal vote with him

That would have lubricated the gears for Hillary Clinton run for the nomination.

Warren and Sanders would split the liberal vote and Hillary would have gotten all of the moderate, centrist and conservative primary votes.

11. Bzzzt. Bernie didn't announce until she'd made it crystal fucking clear that no way

she would run he said repeatedly in the months that preceded his announcement that he would only run if some other progressive did not.

You can't get away with making shit like that up.

[HooptieWagon]

12. No. Sanders waited until she declared she wasn't a candidate.

I am quite sure Sanders would not have run if she had declared her candidacy.

[JoePhilly]

14. LOL.

The "movement" spent about a year trying to draft Warren. She told them no in any number of ways. So finally, when it was clear she was not going to run, period ... then Bernie decided to jump in.

I think its funny how many of Bernie's most strident supporters don't remember that he wasn't even their first choice.

10. If Hillary had to drop on (minuscule chance), Biden or Bernie will get the nomination n/t
