Last night on CNN Ari Fleischer, George W. Bush’s former press secretary, had this to say:

There’s no doubt that Republicans hope to — we pray every night — to run against Hillary Clinton.

Nothing would energize and unify Republicans like having Clinton has the Democratic nominee. All the scandals of Bill Clinton’s administration and Hillary’s previous failed attempt at health care reform will present a huge target for the Republican party’s weapons of mass distraction. Hillary Clinton has many devoted supporters, but she also has the highest negative poll ratings of any candidate in this race on either side. That means she has the farthest to fall in the general election this November.

Democrats should think about this, and about whether they really want another four years of the same disastrous policies, when they’re deciding who to support in the next round of primaries and caucuses.
