-- Hillary Clinton, 14 Apr 2016
Hillary is a core Establishment insider. She even has liked saying so, until now.
Bringing her down would not mean the end of the Establishment by any means. But it would put a big dent in their operation, given whoever would then wind up as President. They don't like dents.
She seems indestructible, in the way that only a deeply protected insider could be at this point in American history. Democrats cheered when her standing tough was a thumb in the eye to Republicans and conservatives. Now it's the #BernieOrBust partisans who want her to pay the price---for something.
They want her to withdraw. But it must be in a way that is graceful to Democratic sensibilities, and especially that doesn't come across as looking anything close to being an act of social injustice.
What could do it? The bottom line is the he core Democratic Party establishment would have to give up on her. Whatever could make them switch would have to be something new and big.
It has to be a big group consensus.
If such a thing could happen, she would be forced out, and the liberals could have their dream ticket---Sanders-Warren, or something like it.
Right now I can think of only one thing that would act actually cause the party to ditch her, against her will. It is if between now and the convention, the general consensus becomes that she would lose in November.
America's ready for it's next president to be...
If it happens this way, and they dump Hillary in July, please just remember one thing. She's going to be pissed off big time. Sort of like this guy was in 1992.
