Do you think she's learned anything in 8 years or does the Party have to ensure that she has no opposition for her to win the nomination?

She learned. So, did the folks around her.

I'd like the Party to run a Midwest governor against her just to be sure.

Doesn't matter; the other side is so preoccupied with its own self-destructive idiocy the dems could run Chelsea and win.

They might be able to run her in the Kentucky Derby and win.

Better to be like Michelle Bachmann or Sarah Palin and have great looks and the brain of a three-year-old, I guess.

What happens when you don't have looks or brains?

Anybody. 2008 was a great race that produced the best general candidate. Do it again. If she wins this time, vaya con Dios; if not, it's because the candidate who beats her is stronger. Natural selection.

Re: The Power of SCOTUS V: The Final Frontier
Great, but is the Party encouraging competition? From what I gather, they're not.

No idea. The Dems tend to throw things wide open, while the GOP tends to anoint the guy whose "turn" it is. The only changes in procedure I've heard about between 2012 and 2016 are the ones where the GOP is trying to cut their schedule of debates way back. Apparently they feel the less the country sees of their candidates, the better, and after the gong show of 2012 they're probably right.

By the time the debates were done last time the Dems could have run Clint Eastwood's empty chair and won. Hell Obama could have gone on TV dressed as a Black Panther, smoking a joint and speaking like a Blacksplotation film and won. The GOP destroyed themselves and it was live on every channel for the world to see.

That's what the debates are for. To introduce us to the candidates. For 2012 at least, that was an entirely fair picture of who the GOP was. Bachmann. Trump. Santorum. Gingrich. Cain. What a freakshow.

Yes, and yes.
It will have been 16 years since Bill's presidency. The Clintonista faction is strong in the party but they're incredibly old. Their rhetoric is old. Their tech outreach is non-existent. They throw money at problems but they have no energy. Even the people who are arguing for Hillary on Dem Underground, Kos, etc and doing it from a purely tactical POV. The only people who find Hillary in any way inspiring or energizing are 48-year old women managers at Wall Street firms who still read Camille Paglia. They're the walking dead.
In terms of organization and strategy, the Clintons are Republicans running in a Dem primary. They have a big Rolodex dominated by wealthy establishment donors... hey, wait a minute...
I've got it: Hillary should run as a Republican! She's farther to the right than Bush Sr., she's the darling of Wall Street, and she thinks like a Republican. And the Republicans would have a candidate with a functioning cerebral cortex for a change. Everybody wins!

I say we save ourselves a step and just skip the campaign and go straight to anointing Hillary.

Whoever the Dems nominate *cough* Clinton *cough* *cough* will outraise and outspend the nominee of the supposed "party of the rich." Sure, Republicans will have the business/corporations/etc, but they'll still get outspent overall.
