I really don't think Biden runs in 2016. His age is catching up to him.

Jeb Bush would be a disaster.

Agreed.
But like Bvista said, never underestimate the idiocy of the GOP.

Booker is like Rubio. A 5 star recruit with all the tools....but still a freshmen. They're not ready for a big campaign like that. And there's no freaking way Warren gets the nod over Hillary. It's Hillary or Biden for the Ds. That's it - deal done. Next topic.
It's hard to say about the GOP. If they're pragmatic: I'd put money on Huntsman.
But <partisanhatoff> it's going to be hard to beat Hillary if she runs.

This is the most dangerous candidate to the Dems.
I do agree IF Hillary runs, she wins. But that's a BIG if.

I very much disagree.....eith er you're a staunch D or listening to the MSM way too much
Think about it....the last 3 Rep to get elected all share the Bush name. So obviously they do something for the country and Rep base that the last 2 Rep candidates do not.
Plus, have you heard him speak? It's quite impressive. Very spot on points and delivery. Looks extremely "Presidential" and makes the establishment feel all warm and fuzzy. No matter how you feel about the Establishment, you need the buy in and energy to win.
