Will Hillary challenge Obama for the presidential nomination?
She says no, that she never wants to run for office again. But, the pressure is growing on her to change her mind as Obama continues to slide in the polls, as more Latino and black voters become more vocal in their disapproval of the president.
27 percent of democrats say they want someone other than Obama to run next year according to a CNN poll. That's more than 1 out of 4 democrats.
While Obama's job approval rating is at 39 percent, the latest secretary of state's job approval rating is at 66 percent.
Independent Senator Bernie Sanders-Vt said, "There are millions of Americans who are deeply disappointed in the president in regard to Social Security and other things. He said one thing as a candidate and is doing something else as president."
Clinton is seen as the most viable candidate to challenge Obama and many view her as the most able member of the administration. The feeling among the democrats that they backed the wrong horse in 2008 has been growing lately.
If it did happen and Clinton does decided to run, the battle within the democratic party would almost certainly be even more bitterly fought that it was four years ago. During that campaign, Clinton called Obama "irresponsible and naive". She issued a damning campaign advertisement questioning whether he would be the right person to answer a 3 AM phone call alerting him to an international crisis.

Mind telling me exactly what she has done that is so great in this position? She's been the most scarce sec. of state ive ever seen! The new stark treaty with russia is a disaster, if that's her record then im afraid she would get eat for lunch as well if she did try to run. Of course if going against Obama he can't use any of that against her as it's HIS administration doing all the dumb stuff like that lol.
And NO he won't answer the phone at 3 am, momma in law who raise's his kids might but it won't be him or michelle, they're too busy on vacation to be bothered!

Doesn't matter who wins. Politicians never do what they promise.
