Anyone paying attention to Hillary knows that she has an uphill climb to the White House, no matter how much money she has or who her husband is.

Anyone with the blood of Iraq on their hands, including the War Queen, is going to have a difficult time convincing liberals and anti-war Americans to follow them. Republicans aren't going to vote for Hillary under any circumstance. Without liberals and antiwar voters who put the democrats back in power in 2006, and who are now booing Hillary, it's going to be difficult for any democrat.

Obama has a better chance than the rest of the democratic field because he's about the only one who opposed the Iraq horror from the beginning. That being said, his latest remarks about Iran are already giving pause to many who are hoping for sanity from their next president.
For the most part I agree with you except about Obama being against the war from the beginning. Please keep in mind that what he says into a microphone and what he votes for are two different things. I'm trying to look up an example, might take me a while. But I do vividly remember him making impressive remarks to the press then doing an about face when a vote regarding Iraq hit the Senate floor.
