Hillary is not a sure thing for 2016

Speculating on 2016 already is a ridiculous exercise, but as long as Hillary Clinton is around, there will always be speculation on the Democratic side.  Will she, or won't she run?  She is the presumptive favorite for the Democratic nomination.  Even the GOP is worried a Clinton nomination could radically change the electoral map.  But amid all of this speculation, no one seems to be pointing out the obvious: We've heard all this before.

Matthew Continetti at the Washington Free Beacon, wrote a great column about all of the Clinton cheer-leading and looks at the parallels between the 2016 speculation and the 2008 speculation, when Hillary was the odds-on favorite to be the Democratic Party's nominee.  It was 'inevitable.'  Mr. Continetti also examines a few of the names out there that could upset Clinton's chances, just as an unknown freshman Senator from Illinois did back in 2008.  This is a MUST READ for both the 'Clintonites' and their detractors.
