So far, the only complaint people have about Hillary are the emails. With Bill entering the conversation, more fodder is available to the Reps...look up "girlfriend" under Bill Clinton and you'll see what to expect when the Reps have more red meat to chew on. Then there's NAFTA and repealing Glass=Steagall...

The Explainer=in-Chief is not held in the high regard he used to be
and as long as he stayed out of the mix it was better for his wife who has had her feelings hurt too much alrleady.

I would vote for Bernie today, but if Biden enters the race, and we have some debates, I might change my vote to Biden. DWS and the DNC are not going to force a candidate down our throats that we think doesn't have a chance against GOP ads..
