Amid what some election prognosticators consider a less than favorable
outlook for the upcoming midterm elections, it has been a tough few months
for Democrats.
The best news for the Democratic Party right now, though, is that it
appears the odds that Hillary Clinton will be running for president again
are increasing.
Everyone, including this columnist, has long assumed that she will run. And
most, including this columnist, think she will be the best person for this
job. Many more again, once more including me, were never concerned as to
whether she is the best person for this job. My only question about this
campaign has been whether it will have the right message to get the job.
Based on excellent reporting by Dylan Scott at Talking Points Memo, I can
now enthusiastically report to you that she not only has the right message,
she has the perfect message.
For all of the coverage that the former secretary of State and former first
lady has gotten in the past few months, Scott’s analysis of Clinton’s
message is good music to these ears. President Obama did not just help this
economy during his administration, he saved it from unthinkable
consequences. After 54 months straight of private-sector job growth,
Clinton appears determined to keep the momentum going and to finish the job
of economic recovery.
If Obama saved the economy, Clinton will grow the economy, for everyone.
She noted, “we know unless we change our policies, a lot of the benefits
are not going to be broadly shared” — a signal that Clinton is prepared to
shift focus to a segment of the economy and the population that has been
neglected for too long.
What has always made the Clintons great politicians and better people is
their unyielding commitment to expanding the middle class for everyone.
Well, Hillary Clinton is right on message in saying, “Forget about getting
rich. I’m talking about getting into the middle class and staying there.”
The overarching message from the former secretary of State is an idea of
finishing the job. We have an economic recovery that brought us back from
peril, but for many Americans it still hasn’t recovered, and that is
priority No. 1 for Clinton’s campaign.
It is a joyous feeling not to be for Hillary Clinton just out of loyalties
to her or the Clintons as a whole but because I know that she has what it
takes to get the job done. Now I am more convinced than ever that she know
what it takes. She is the right person at the right time with the right
message. This is rarely the case in politics, but it is now, and hallelujah
for that.

Media Attack Clinton Allies In Desperate Ploy To Smear Her Over Benghazi”

Conservative media are lashing out at individuals who have worked with and
support Hillary Clinton to attack her by proxy and rehash tired Benghazi
smears.
Fox News has repeatedly -- and falsely -- suggested that the Obama
administration's response to the September 2012 terrorist attacks in
Benghazi, Libya was somehow politically calibrated. According to a Media
Matters analysis, in the 20 months following the attacks Fox's evening
programming aired 230 total segments suggesting the response to the attacks
was motivated by President Obama's re-election campaign, while 105 segments
linked Benghazi to Clinton's potential presidential campaign.
As part of their politicized Benghazi campaign, conservative media have
repeatedly attacked Clinton's colleagues and friends in the hopes of
weakening a potential Clinton presidential run.
Cheryl Mills, Clinton's chief of staff at the State Department, has long
been subject to attacks. Back in June 2013, a Daily Caller op-ed by
conservative activist Tom Fitton dubbed her the "Clinton cover-up expert,"
and accused her of attempting to "silence" a Benghazi whistleblower.
(Multiple investigations have found no evidence of a Benghazi "cover-up,"
and the so-called whistleblower himself admitted that all Mills had done
was speak to him in an "unhappy" tone.)
But now Mills, and her colleague former deputy chief of staff Jake
Sullivan, have come under a fresh round of attacks. Earlier this month, Fox
and discredited journalist Sharyl Attkisson hyped claims from a disgruntled
former State Department employee who speculated that Mills and Sullivan
were involved in the removal of damaging documents from a Benghazi
investigation. The employee had no evidence -- he just "couldn't help but
wonder" if wrongdoing had occurred. Fox blew up his unsupported allegations
to claim that "Clinton allies removed politically damaging docs," while The
New York Post labeled Mills and Sullivan "Clinton's minions" and claimed
the documents were "scrubbed to protect Hillary."
Attkisson's claims were repeated across conservative media, including at
Breitbart, HotAir, and Townhall. At the same time, the Media Research
Center complained that more of the mainstream media didn't cover the story
(despite the lack of evidence).
Earlier this summer, conspiracy theorist Aaron Klein's anti-Clinton book
The REAL Benghazi Story attempted to smear another Clinton ally: former CIA
deputy director Michael Morell. Klein suggested that Morell was "given" his
new job at the consulting firm Beacon Global Strategies (co-founded by
Philippe Reines, a Clinton adviser), "in exchange for his silence in the
talking points scandal." Of course, there was no talking points "scandal":
multiple investigations have found the talking points that then-U.S.
Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice was given ahead of media
appearances following the Benghazi attacks were edited to preserve an
ongoing criminal investigation, not for any nefarious political reasons.
Morell, as a CIA official, helped sign off on the final draft, as did the
intelligence community.
Other figures at Beacon Global, including Reines, Andrew Shapiro, Admiral
James Stavridis, and J. Michael Allen have also come under attack from the
right-wing press. The Blaze recently labeled the group "Benghazi Alumni,"
and accused them of previously participating in "harassment, demotions and
politicized cover-ups." The Blaze piece, and a recent opinion piece in The
Buffalo News by columnist Douglas Turner, both accused Beacon figures of
hiding evidence about the so-called "stand down" order.
This claim is an old Benghazi falsehood; every single investigation,
including the GOP-led House Intelligence Committee, have confirmed that
there was no "stand down" order given to military or CIA personnel the
night of the attacks. Military personnel along the chain of command have
also said that any no such order was given.
Right-wing media's obsession with trying to tie Benghazi to a potential
Clinton 2016 presidential run is habitually focused on throwing mud against
the wall in the hopes that something sticks, but the facts won't allow it.

Hillary Rodham Clinton's 2008 presidential campaign emphasized her
experience, competence and preparation to become president. Her 2016 pitch
could be simpler: She'd be the first female president.
As Clinton considers a second White House bid in 2016, she is making a
pronounced case for female empowerment and the role of women in the
nation's economy and politics. From the stage of the annual Clinton Global
Initiative to the campaign trail, the former secretary of state has
emphasized breaking barriers and the need for female leadership — themes
that could resonate in a future campaign in which women voters will be
critical.
"Don't let anyone dismiss what you're doing today as women's work," Clinton
told a women's leadership forum last week at the Democratic National
Committee. "Don't let anyone send you back to the sidelines."
Along with her husband, former President Bill Clinton, the former first
lady spent the week highlighting the role of women leaders this week at
their family's annual conference. The ex-president spoke to Chilean
President Michelle Bachelet about the challenges female leaders face. Other
panels featured General Motors CEO Mary Barra and IBM CEO Ginni Rometty,
the first female heads at their respective companies.
Mrs. Clinton is raising money for Democratic women running in the 2014
elections and is expected to campaign for Democrats in the coming weeks. In
Iowa, she praised Democratic congressional candidate Staci Appel, noting
that the early presidential state has never elected a woman to Congress or
governor.
During her DNC speech last week, Clinton rattled off the names of 10
Democratic women whom she said gave her hope, from candidates for governor
like Mary Burke of Wisconsin and Wendy Davis of Texas to Sens. Mary
Landrieu of Louisiana, Kay Hagan of North Carolina and Jeanne Shaheen of
New Hampshire.
The former New York senator's remarks frequently touch on a number of
policy issues important to woman. Clinton called for a "movement" to bring
equal pay, access to child care and raising the minimum wage, reminding her
audience that two-thirds of minimum wage earners are women.
Anytime she is introduced, speakers invariably mention Clinton's 1995
United Nations speech in Beijing, when she declared that "human rights are
women's rights and women's rights are human rights."
Her campaign message to women wasn't always so explicit; her advisers were
concerned that being a woman could hurt her with male voters.
When Clinton sought the presidency in 2007 and 2008, her team presented her
as a strong leader — in the mold of the late British Prime Minister
Margaret Thatcher — with the toughness and experience to lead the nation.
One of her most memorable television ads involved a 3 a.m. phone call,
which implied her Democratic primary opponent, Barack Obama, wasn't ready
to respond to a crisis.
But when she ended her campaign amid praise for her tenacity, Clinton gave
what might have been a preview of her approach to the gender question,
noting she hadn't shattered the White House's glass ceiling, but had left
18 million cracks in it — a reference to the votes she won in the primaries.
Six years later, one of her main priorities at the Clinton Foundation is a
project called, "No Ceilings," aimed at empowering women around the planet.
"There may be new attention to these issues, especially as we've plateaued
in some important indicators, but she proposed universal (pre-kindergarten)
and national paid leave in '07 and '08 and those issues have only gained in
importance in the last few years," said Neera Tanden, a former Clinton
policy adviser who leads the Center for American Progress.
In a nod to her past, Clinton's speeches now often include anecdotes
emblematic of the barriers many women have faced in the work force.
When she was deciding between Yale and Harvard law schools, Clinton
recalled attending a reception at Harvard, where she met a chauvinistic law
professor who told her the school didn't need more women. Clinton enrolled
at Yale.
At a speech last week to the Legal Services Corp., Clinton recalled meeting
an Arkansas judge shortly after moving to the state to teach law and run a
legal aid clinic in the 1970s. "I don't have much use for lady law
professors and I have no use for legal aid," the judge told Clinton, who
responded: "Well, it's great to meet you, judge!"
Before she makes any decisions on her future, Clinton will take on another
role. The couple's daughter, Chelsea, is expecting her first child within
days and the former first lady has been eagerly anticipating becoming a
grandmother.
"When the big moment comes," Clinton said in Iowa, "you can bet that I will
drop everything to be there in a flash."

Just over a year ago at the request of the White House, Hillary Clinton
worked the phones with about a half-dozen senators, trying to sell Congress
on authorizing military strikes against Syria. Weeks later, at the Clinton
Global Initiative, the former secretary of state defended President Barack
Obama against Republican efforts to defund his health care overhaul.
Since then, the relationship has become more complicated: During her summer
book tour, Clinton pointedly highlighted differences with her former boss
over how the early stages of the Syria civil war were handled.
On Tuesday, Clinton and Obama were together again at the Clinton Global
Initiative in Midtown Manhattan, the seventh time the sitting president has
attended the glitzy charity-meets-ideas event. Former President Bill
Clinton praised Obama, and the president offered kind words for both
Clintons. The joint appearance highlighted a reality for the current
president and his former secretary of state: Her political needs aren’t
always in sync with his, but more often than not their interests do align.
Hillary Clinton needs to keep Obama’s supporters behind her if she runs for
president in 2016. After Clinton was quoted in The Atlantic last month
knocking Obama’s foreign policy mantra — “‘Don’t do stupid stuff’ is not an
organizing principle,” she said — a few days later she issued a statement
declaring her deep support for the president and insisting she wasn’t
trying to attack him.
Some Obama advisers, meanwhile, see Clinton as a lifeline — the best chance
the lame-duck Democrat has to preserve his legacy, particularly Obamacare,
after the open-seat election in 2016.
Whether Obama himself views the situation that way is unclear. But so far,
a number of former Obama aides have made an effort to show unity between
the two sides.
And so it was all compliments between Obama and the Clintons onstage Tuesday
.
“It’s a testimony I think to any leader not just what they themselves do,
but the degree to which they inspire actions from others,” Obama told the
audience. “Bill Clinton has continued to exert extraordinary global
leadership for decades.”
As for Hillary Clinton, sitting in the audience at a table at the Sheraton
New York, Obama said, “I think one of the best decisions I ever made as
president was to have Hillary Clinton serve as our secretary of state. …
I’ll always be grateful for her extraordinary leadership … around the
world.”
At another point, Obama talked about his foreign policy and described
Clinton as someone who “helped champion our efforts” from her position at
the State Department.
Obama also joked about lending the Clintons’ very pregnant daughter his
motorcade to get to the hospital and made an offhand aside about his
feelings of guilt at sending Hillary Clinton so many miles around the
world, away from her husband, for a four-year stretch. Looking weary, Obama
quipped that Hillary Clinton has the out-of-office “glow.”
There was no mention of the current crisis in Syria, where Obama ordered
air strikes to combat the fast-growing terror group known as Islamic State
of Iraq and the Levant the night before. In an interview on CNBC earlier
Tuesday, Bill Clinton said he thinks the U.S. military engagement will be
extensive but will not result in a land war. Hillary Clinton would not
comment on what’s happening in the Mideast.
The CGI event is intended to be apolitical, and Bill Clinton has invited
Republicans as featured speakers in the past. But the sense that the
Democrats’ balance of political power is about to shift to Clinton was
palpable all over the Sheraton. Longtime Clinton donors roamed the lobby
along with people like Buffy Wicks, a former Obama aide who is currently
executive director of Priorities USA Action, the pro-Obama super PAC that
has been rebranded as a pro-Clinton effort for 2016.
Another change since last year’s CGI event: Donors then were excited about
the prospect of Hillary Clinton running again but thought believed they had
to persuade her to. This year, it is viewed as a foregone conclusion, even
though Clinton says she hasn’t made up her mind and won’t announce a
decision until after the new year.
Bill Clinton, as ever, was probed for his political views throughout the
event. In an interview with Charlie Rose taped Monday, he was asked the
five things the next president will need to tackle in the first 100 days.
He ticked off a few items, such as infrastructure and continuing to work on
health care. But Bill Clinton led with reversing economic stagnation in the
country.
The main concern is the “recovery of our capacity to provide a society that
offers equal opportunity and the possibility of shared prosperity,” Bill
Clinton said. “An expanding middle class where poor people have the chance
to work their way into it.”
It’s a message his wife is likely to focus on over the next two years — by
reminding voters that her husband’s White House was notable for just that
type of prosperity.

to pay’ to Hillary Clinton”

President Obama said Tuesday "one of the best decisions" he made in office
"was to ask Hillary Clinton to serve as our nation’s secretary of state."
"I’ll always be grateful for her extraordinary leadership representing our
nation around the world," he said at the Clinton Global Initiative in New
York. “And I still have a lot of debt to pay" to his former secretary of
state because her frenetic schedule -- the State Department said she
traveled 956,733 miles in the position -- kept the Clintons apart.
"Hillary put in a lot of miles during her tenure as secretary of state. She
has the post-administration glow right now," Obama said. "She looks much
more rested."
Of course, with the 2016 race just around the corner, that may be a
temporary condition.
Obama thanked Bill Clinton for his "friendship and leadership" -- and
offered something in return.
There may be no presidential perk more envied -- at least by
gridlock-plagued New Yorkers -- than the official motorcade. When you're
commander-in-chief, forget traffic -- you don't have to worry about traffic
lights, either.
And so Obama offered a very pregnant Chelsea Clinton a lift to the hospital
should she go into labor during his remarks. "I was just discussing with
President Clinton that if Chelsea begins delivery while I'm speaking, she
has my motorcade and will be able to navigate traffic," Obama said.
"Because actually, it's pretty smooth for me during the week. I don't know
what the problem is. Everybody hypes the traffic, but I haven't noticed."
A motorcade does tend to smooth that out.
Obama came onstage after Matt Damon. Even if you're president, that's not
an easy act to follow.
"Always wonderful to follow Matt Damon," Obama said. "I saw people
trickling out after he was done."
*The Hill: “Obama: Making Hillary Clinton secretary of State one of my
‘best decisions’”

Asking Hillary Clinton to serve as Secretary of State was "one of the best
decisions I ever made as president," President Obama told philanthropists
and donors gathered Tuesday at the Clinton Global Initiative meeting in New
York City.
The president showered the former first lady — and likely frontrunner for
the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination — with praise, saying he "will
always be grateful for her extraordinary leadership."
Obama went on to joke that he still had "a lot of debt to pay" because of
the miles Clinton traveled when in his administration. But he also praised
the former New York senator for her "post-administration glow."
"She looks much more rested," Obama said to laughter.
The praise came at the first joint public appearance for Obama and his
former Cabinet secretary since Clinton's interview with The Atlantic this
summer, where she levied criticism against the president's handling of
Syria.
In the interview, Clinton said that she would have armed the Syrian
opposition two years ago, and suggested failing to do so had enabled the
rise of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS).
"The failure to help build up a credible fighting force of the people who
were the originators of the protests against [Syrian President Bashar]
Assad — there were Islamists, there were secularists, there was everything
in the middle — the failure to do that left a big vacuum, which the
jihadists have now filled,” Clinton said.
Clinton subsequently called Obama to tell him the remark was not intended
as an attack on him or his policies, according to a spokesman.
Last week, Obama won congressional authorization for a program to train and
equip the moderate Syrian opposition as part of the administration's fight
against ISIS. White House officials have defended the move, saying that
they used the time to properly vet which rebels would receive U.S. arms and
training.
The president did not discuss that program or the first round of airstrikes
launched against ISIS and al Qaeda targets in Syria during his speech to
CGI.
Instead, the president highlighted efforts to assist civil society groups
by his administration. Obama on Tuesday will issue a new presidential
memorandum requiring federal agencies to consult regularly with civil
society groups and resist efforts by foreign governments to limit American
assistance to activists.
"When people are free to speak their minds and hold their leaders
accountable, governments are more responsible and effective," Obama said.
"Partnering [with] and protecting civil society groups around the world is
now a mission across the U.S. government," he added.
The president also levied criticism at countries where free speech rights
were restricted — including, notably, Russia, China, and Venezuela —
accusing those governments of "relentless crackdowns vilifying legitimate
dissent."
"The United States will not stop speaking out for the human rights of all
people and pushing governments to uphold those rights," Obama said.

in 2016 is clear -- which is complicated”

The 2016 presidential election is more than two years away. Heck, the 2014
midterm election is still more than a month away. But it's never too early
to speculate about presidential nominations, especially for politicians who
are thinking about running.
It's no surprise that potential Republican candidates are already stumping
around the country asking voters and contributors to take a look. Their
field is wide open.
But it's a little more complicated for Democrats, with Hillary Rodham
Clinton holding what looks like an unshakable lead in their polls. Still,
at least four other Democrats are said to be thinking about jumping into
the race — former Montana Gov. Brian Schweitzer, Maryland Gov. Martin
O'Malley, former Virginia Sen. Jim Webb and Vice President Joe Biden — as
well as Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, an independent who caucuses with the
party.
“She's going to be challenged by at least two or three others,” predicted
Tad Devine, a Democratic strategist who helped manage three presidential
campaigns (and advised Sanders when he ran for the Senate). “Hillary's the
prohibitive front-runner, absolutely, but that can change very quickly once
you get into a primary campaign.”
Clinton would face two challenges from all those upstarts — one domestic,
the other foreign.
On economics, all the potential Democratic candidates cast themselves as
firmly with “the 99%.” They are decrying the long-term stagnation in
middle-class incomes and calling for an end to the long stretch of tax cuts
that have helped the affluent.
Clinton sometimes sounds as if she's right there with them. This spring,
she gave a speech comparing the current economy to “the Gilded Age of the
robber barons.” But she hasn't been specific about the remedies she'd
propose, and her would-be competitors have sounded tougher on Wall Street,
a position sure to win favor from economic liberals.
Sanders, a self-described “democratic socialist,” has said that if he runs,
“My job is to take on the billionaire class.”
And Schweitzer, a folksy, mercurial rancher turned politician, has publicly
criticized Clinton's reliance on high-finance contributors. “If you can
judge a person's character by the company they keep, in politics you can
judge a person by the money they seek,” he told the Wall Street Journal.
On foreign policy, presumably one of Clinton's selling points, she could
find herself sandwiched between critics from the left and right.
Sanders, to Clinton's left on most issues, has frequently noted that he
voted against the Iraq war in 2002 (Clinton voted for it), and last week he
voted against authorizing the Obama administration to arm Syrian rebels.
Webb, who has staked out domestic positions to Clinton's right, is (to
stretch an analogy) the Rand Paul of the Democratic Party — skeptical about
most uses of military force. He opposed the 2011 U.S. intervention in Libya
that Clinton championed. Last week he said that he thought President
Obama's foreign policy, which Clinton helped shape, was “a tangled mess.”
None of these upstarts, at this point, pose a serious threat to Clinton's
march to the Democratic nomination. The only one who has registered any
consistent support in polling is Sanders — assuming he runs as a Democrat —
and he shows up in fourth place, after Clinton, Biden and Massachusetts
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who insists she isn't running.
But having little chance of winning isn't likely to stop them. Some of
them, such as Sanders, will run in the hope of moving the party in their
direction ideologically. Others — think O'Malley and Schweitzer — will see
running as at least a way to boost their name recognition, making it more
likely they could land a future nomination — or be offered a place on the
ticket as vice presidential nominee.
Clinton would probably prefer not to have to spend time and money defending
herself in the primaries. But, at least according to some campaign
strategists, facing challengers might actually do her some good. Primary
challenges will force Clinton to tune up her campaign organization. And
they would enable her to make her pitch to a wider audience during the long
primary season.
“I think she's absolutely better off with some opposition,” said Devine.
“Otherwise you're in danger of spending six months in a black hole. You
don't want to cede those six months to the other party while you sit there
in your coronation robes. That won't play well.”
Still, contested primaries also offer a front-runner a chance to make
mistakes. And Clinton's history as a campaigner has been far from flawless.
She started the 2008 Democratic presidential campaign as the prohibitive
front-runner but lost to an upstart named Barack Obama. She launched her
pre-campaign this year with a well-orchestrated book rollout, but made
headlines by complaining that she and her husband were “dead broke” when
they left the White House.
And there's always a chance Clinton might decide not to run after all.
“That's unlikely, but it's still possible,” a sometime Clinton advisor told
me last week.
In that case, all bets are off.

‘Planet Without Elephants’”

If there is one thing Chelsea Clinton is most worried about, it may be that
her soon-to-be child will grow up in a world without elephants.
Standing alongside her mother, Hillary Clinton, at the Clinton Global
Initiative this afternoon, the very-pregnant former first daughter warned
the plight of African elephants, killed for their ivory tusks, is an
“existential” one, and said that if the current poaching rates continue,
elephants could be few and far between within the next decade.
If so, this means Chelsea Clinton’s favorite animal could be something her
child would never know.
“The child Marc and I are waiting to bring into this world could grow up in
a planet without elephants,” Clinton cautioned, before announcing a new
commitment to stop the killing of African elephants and the trafficking of
ivory.
Chelsea Clinton said the African elephant crisis is not only a “moral” and
“ecological disaster,” but also a “security threat,” as ivory is
increasingly being used by the world’s most nefarious terror groups, such
as the Lord’s Resistance Army and Boko Haram. She pleaded that “it’s in all
of our interests” to stop the growing practice.
Saving the elephants is a favorite mission for the Clinton women. While
making the announcement at the family’s annual philanthropic meeting today,
Hillary Clinton described the issue as something she and her daughter are
“passionately committed” to, and said that Chelsea Clinton has made it a
“priority” of the Clinton Foundation.
Ahead of the birth of her child, Chelsea Clinton teamed up with the website
BRIKA.com, to launch a line of elephant-themed gifts to benefit groups
working to stop the international poaching of African elephants. She told
the blog Refinery 29, she’s even contemplating buying some of the pieces
herself for an elephant-themed nursery.
“We’re very baby-oriented right now, so we’ll definitely be buying a felt
elephant or two. I think those will look great in our nursery. And, it’s
safe to say that as last year, this year too, a lot of our friends will be
getting elephant-themed Christmas presents,” Clinton said.
*Associated Press: “Webb 'Seriously Looking' At 2016 Campaign”
<http://bigstory.ap.org/article/1f17a3c1f58d4cfb823e0be302f31a67/webb-seriously-looking-2016-campaign>*
[No Writer Mentioned]
September 23, 2014, 4:36 p.m. EDT
Former Virginia Sen. Jim Webb said Tuesday he is "seriously looking" at a
Democratic presidential campaign in 2016, a move that could create a
challenge to former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton if she seeks
the White House again.
Webb said at a speech to the National Press Club that he has talked to
respected advisers about a presidential bid and will continue to have those
discussions during the next four or five months.
"I'm seriously looking at the possibility of running for president. But we
want to see if there's a support base from people who would support the
programs that we're interested in pursuing," he said.
Webb, 68, is a veteran of the Vietnam War who served as assistant secretary
of defense and Navy secretary during the Ronald Reagan administration. He
defeated Republican George Allen in his 2006 Senate campaign and served one
term.
Clinton is the leading Democratic contender for president if she seeks the
White House again but Democrats expect her to face a primary challenge. In
addition to Webb, the field could include Vice President Joe Biden,
Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley and others.
Webb said Tuesday that U.S. foreign policy has been "adrift" since the end
of the Cold War and the nation's debate over domestic policy has become
increasingly polarized.
"Not surprisingly the American people have grown ever more cynical about
their national leadership in both parties and increasingly pessimistic
about the future," he said.
Webb has made campaign appearances in Iowa on behalf of Democratic Rep.
Bruce Braley, who is running for Senate, and state Sen. Jack Hatch, who is
challenging Republican Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad. Webb plans to visit New
Hampshire, the home of the nation's first presidential primary, on Oct. 20.
*Washington Post blog: The Fix: “Four reasons why Jim Webb for president
makes no sense”
<http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-fix/wp/2014/09/23/really-jim-webb-for-president/>*
By Aaron Blake
September 23, 2014, 5:26 p.m. EDT
It's a real testament to the fact that we're grasping desperately for
non-Hillary Clinton Democratic presidential candidates when Washington
starts getting a little buzzy about Jim Webb running for president.
No, that's not to take anything away from Webb's service — including as a
war hero, Navy secretary under Ronald Reagan and one-term senator from
Virginia. It's just that there wouldn't seem to be a more unlikely
presidential hopeful than Jim Webb.
To wit:
1) He retired after one term in the Senate and didn't seem to particularly
enjoy being in public life. Larry Sabato said it particularly well after
Webb's retirement announcement a few years back: "He has been an excellent
United States senator, but he is a terrible politician. He doesn't suffer
fools gladly, he doesn't enjoy glad-handing — my sense of Webb is that he’s
had enough of public life for a while."
Think again, Larry!
2) Webb's niche in the race would apparently be as a more populist, dovish
alternative to Hillary Clinton. That's fine, except that he was Reagan's
Navy secretary and also something of a Blue Dog Democrat during his service
in the Senate. Even on foreign policy, he was often toward the middle of
the Senate.
Much like ex-Montana governor Brian Schweitzer (D), that's an odd profile
for a guy who is supposed to be winning votes from the liberal wing of the
Democratic Party.
3) He has negative charisma. The Fix believes that presidential races have
a charisma threshold, by which we mean that candidates need to be at least
somewhat compelling to a national audience to achieve viability. Tim
Pawlenty (R), for instance, struggled with this. Maryland Gov. Martin
O'Malley (D) has a similar problem.
Webb would probably make Pawlenty look like Herman Cain. He's just very
dour. We wonder who would get excited about him, in the absence of some
galvanizing force that suddenly makes him the perfect candidate for that
political moment in time.
4) He has baggage. Yes, Webb won his 2006 bout with Sen. George Allen
(R-Va.), but it wasn't pretty. And some liberals balked pretty loudly when
Webb's name surfaced as a potential vice presidential pick for President
Obama in 2008.
Among the hits that would resurface in a presidential campaign:
Webb has spoken fondly of his Confederate roots and defended the Southern
states' decision to secede, even citing the "Nazification of the
Confederacy."
He said in 2004 that John Kerry deserved to be condemned for his actions in
opposition to the Vietnam War.
Webb's writings and comments have been criticized by the left for being
insensitive to women.
Does this sound to anyone like the profile of the guy who might defeat
Hillary Clinton — or even compete with her — in 2016?
