As long as Goodhair gets bounced out on his ass, I’m happy.

Personally, I’d love to see someone like Julian Castro run. I’m pretty sure that was the point of having him keynote the DNC last year. I like him. He’s young, smart, and seems like a genuinely good guy.

Castro is good, as is Cory Booker. However, both have a bit of an uphill battle due to their relative lack of national exposure. Clinton had - and excelled at - a high-profile position for the past four years. By doing so she succeeded, in my opinion in rebuilding a reputation that was damaged a bit from the prior primary between her and President Obama, and additionally gave her a huge leg up from a foreign relations standpoint.
