But I think shes waiting to see how Allan Lichtman's 13 keys line up.Some people might laugh at this BUT Bill Clinton talked to Lichtman at the end of 1991 before he decided to run for President and Allan told him Bush was going to definitely loose the election despite his high approval rating on the Gulf war.The democrats according to Lichtman are currently 4 keys down not including the midterm elections.If we loose seats in the House we loose another key which would be 5 down. If there is a bruising primary fight on our side(Sanders or Warren) CHECK MATE!! we are done.Or if this war with Isis turns to shit thats another key that will fall.And the republicans will take over the WH in 2016.
