Buyers' Remorse
A lot of Dems aren't happy about the prospects of Hillary running for president. But they have no one but themselves to blame:
“I hope she won’t run, and I don’t know whether I’d support her,” said Jean Lloyd-Jones, a veteran Democrat from Iowa City, Iowa who was the party’s unsuccessful Senate nominee in 1992.
During the 1992 campaign Lloyd-Jones spent a day and half with Bill and Hillary Clinton and Al and Tipper Gore in Iowa on their now-famous bus tour.
“I think she should stay in the Senate a bit longer,” said Lloyd-Jones, who chipped in $1,000 to Clinton’s 2006 Senate re-election fund. “I don’t think this is the time for her to run (for president). I don’t quite understand why she is such a polarizing figure, but she is.”
OK, let's ignore her cluelessness about why Her Highness is such a polarizing figure. Does she not realize that when she gives a thousand dollars to the Senate campaign of someone whose Senate reelection is a cakewalk, that the unneeded money will be transferred to the presidential campaign? Sorry, no sympathy for this particular koolaid drinker.

It might be Democrat version of a Rovian Plot. Show the party isn't behind her from the start, and then later talk about what a uniter she is just prior to election.
