Look at the polls. And money isnt an issue. The Clintons have plenty of money and resources for more.
The ONLY one I see who may pull in voters is Rand, if he distances himself from dad and keeps reaching out to the voters the GOP usually ignores. He's also hitting a note with the anti police militarization. But he'll have to start fast and work hard and be believable, and thats not gonna be easy.

I also want to hear those kinds of words....whoever says them gets my vote, even if it's HRC. northoftheborder Nov 2014 #1
Hillary can, and will win if she runs. And women will give her Massive coattails. nt onehandle Nov 2014 #2
