Hillary had a better NAME footing in 2008 but she didn't have solid footing overall as the majority of the base was against her vote for the war in Iraq which really did her in early on. That and not knowing all the rules of the Democratic primary, Obama being a fresh new face, and Obama being able to capitalize on the youth vote early.Hillary Clinton had a better foot in the 2008 primaries as well man. Obama was an unknown. Look what happened.
I don't know if he'll make it or not, but I do see him running. Whether he makes it or not remains to be seen.Bush will not make it, I'm telling you.
Who else do you have in mind for 2016 then on the Democratic side??If Hillary runs in 2016 I'm going to be pissed
Very true, but Jeb already has the Republican base, and as far as immigration goes he's been very vocal on ways and solutions for the party to have to deal with this issue. He was the governor of Florida, he has ideas on immigration and is able to talk to the Latino community. All that being said, his last name is going to cause him many problems, that much is for certain.I dunno how Jeb is gonna overcome history. Your dad was seen as a failure, your brother is still so hated he can't even so his face 4 years later. Moderates ain't gonna drink the kool-aid a third time
