Monday on NPR’s “Morning Edition,” ABC political commentator Cokie Roberts offered her thoughts on the apparent health issues regarding Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and the how the party could be looking to handle things if a replacement is needed for Clinton. According to Roberts, there was already conversation within the party about such a possibility. “The fact that it comes now when the polls are tightening and Democrats are already saying that Hillary was the only candidate who could not beat Trump and it is taking her off of the campaign trail, canceling her trip to California – it has them very nervously beginning to whisper about having her step aside and finding another candidate.” When asked if that really could happen, Roberts called it “unlikely to be a real thing,” but floated the name of Vice President Joe Biden as a possible replacement. “I think it is unlikely to be a real thing,” she added. “And I’m sure it is an overreaction of an already skittish party. But you know, they have looked at what happens in that circumstance. The Democratic National Committee chair convenes the committee and they vote. Now ironically, the candidate who everybody looks at is Joe Biden, who is older than Hillary Clinton. But then again, so is Donald Trump and by the way we know nothing about his health.”

Shotgun Joe Biden! Or Darrel Castle, or Jill Stein, or Gary Johnson? Should be going hunting with John F. Kerry and Jimmy Carter soon. Hillary Trump is done, stick a fork in 'em. ? ? ? ? Hillary YES. Trump NO. Wishful fantasy on your part. Si vis pacem, para bellum Those who beat their swords into plowshares will plow for those who don't Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God. if you look around, we have gone so far down the the rat hole, the almighty is going to have to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah, if we don't have a judgement come down on us. President Obama is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people. --Clint Eastwood "I am concerned for the security of our great nation; not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within." -- General Douglas MacArthur
If Hillary drops out, I'm guessing Sanders would be up next. Honestly, I'm afraid the poor woman will drop dead soon. Should anything happen, as a nominated candidate, it is still POSSIBLE for U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders to be our next President? I agree. To me, it does not appear she will live to the election. I do admire your kind intent. But I would not use the adjective "poor" for this despicable woman.

Yeah - I guess I meant it in a general sense. I won't be shedding any tears if she does croak. If nothing else, she deserves to burn in hell for this. Hillary Clinton Gave Order to Murder Waco Babies “During an interview in early February 2001 the former White House aide Linda Tripp alleged that Hillary Clinton pressured the late Vincent Foster to resolve the Waco standoff. As a result women and children were killed. Appearing on CNN’s ‘Larry King Live’ Tripp suggested that Foster, at Mrs Clinton’s direction, transmitted the order to move on the Branch Davidian’s Waco compound, which culminated in a military style attack on the wooden building,” writes Robert Morrow. The late Mike McNulty, producer of the Emmy Award winning, Academy Award nominated documentary Waco: Rules of Engagement, and its follow-up films, Waco, A New Revelation, and The FLIR Project, also believed Hillary Clinton gave the order. “Hillary Clinton’s role in the assault on the Davidian campus and its subsequent cover-up has never been fully disclosed. McNulty says that his information indicates that Mrs. Clinton was not only involved, but in command, directing the FBI’s actions from the White House, and leading the subsequent cover-up,” writes Jeff Knox. Understand. I like so many have been disappointed to see her & Bill go unpunished for so many crimes. However, I think we are seeing God's hand in this. I really believe that God is punishing her by removing her health, and she is watching her dream of being POTUS float away. I think she & Bill will end up in a nursing home, with blank stares, tongues hanging out, drooling on themselves, and crapping profusely in their depends. That would be a real comedown & fitting end for both of them! God can not be bribed, or persuaded by political connections!

If Hillary is deposed as the candidate for the Party of Death and Scranton Joe Biden is to be her replacement, the Dems may want to water board the old imbecile to see if he knows anything.
Liberals are a lot like Slinkys, they're good for nothing but they bring a smile to your face as you shove them down the stairs.
I thought he was from Dullaware.
Honestly, I'm afraid the poor woman will drop dead soon. The nonsense link above is: A working link goes to USA Supreme which cites nothing as a basis. It has the full authority of Alex. The title is: "The DNC Rules Are Clear If Hillary Drops Out The Second Candidate With The Highest Number Of Delegates Gets The Nomination" Within the article one finds: "The DNC Rules Are Suspended And They Have To Follow Floor Rules And Nominate Bernie Sanders But Only If Hillary Clinton Step Down On Her Own Those Rules Will Be Enforced." Another article with the full authority of Alex. Any replacement is picked by majority vote of the DNC pursuant to Article 3, Section 1(c) of the DNC Rules and Bylaws adopted September 11, 2009. The DNC was in the bag for Hillary and is not going to pick Bernie. It is as likely as if, should Trump drop dead, the RNC would pick Ted Cruz. http://www.demrulz.org/wp-content/files/DNC_Charter__Bylaws_9.11.2009.pdf Democratic National Committee Section 1.

No more than seventy-five additional members of the Democratic National Committee may be added by the foregoing members.
Oh - so the Democrats are going to follow the rules, is that what your long-winded screed is saying? Good luck with all that. Joe was born and raised in Scranton and his family moved eastward to provide their Joey with a fresh venue. Several years ago a PBS nonsense piece had Joe returning to his old haunts in Scranton and nobody claimed to have known him.

Yes, I read his bio after my prior reply. He left Scranton with his family when he was 10, so it doesn't surprise me that nearly no one remembered him.
I provided the actual rules. It is apparent you were clueless about them. If you want to know what I believe, there is no way in hell that the DNC would select Bernie Sanders as a replacement. We already know from leaked email waht the DNC thinks of Sanders, even if he is your socialist hero.
He used to go back to Scranton after he went into the life of a freeloader slopping at the government trough for sentimental reasons, I suppose. At any rate as he trolled the bars telling tales about his accomplishments still there was nobody who knew who the hell this little turd was.

It would probably turn out like the time the medicos x-rayed one Jay Hanna Dean and as the ol' Diz himself proudly proclaimed 'they x-rayed my head and didn't find nothing'.
