If the alternative is Sanders or Biden, then she is unquestionably still the best option.

What should really have you worried is that there is literally no one of equal quality to fill the void should Hillary implode.
A Vice President of the United States, 36 Year Senator of Delaware. A Former Mayor of Burlington, Congressman, and Senator of Vermont. A Former Mayor of Baltimore, and Governor of Maryland. A Former Sec. of The Navy and Former Senator of Virginia. A Former Senator and Governor of Rhode Island.
Yup. No quality here, hun.

In my opinion Hillary Clinton is the best choice for the Democrats this election. Yes, I said it!

Since politicians left and right have been entering the race, I have been disappointed with most the Democratic candidates. I don't see the appeal for Bernie Sanders at all; he's another Ron and Rand Paul with "progressive" flavoring. Like Sanders, O'Malley is a coward. When the Black Lives Matter moment interrupted their speeches, they backed down with their tale between their legs and kissed ass to the media so they wouldn't come out as negative. I lost all my respect for those two.
So Hillary would have eaten BLM with her tenacious lizard teeth? There really is no reason to call Sanders or O'Malley a coward... The job of politicians is to listen to others ideas and help better represent them. Listen I really hate the way the BLM supporters got up on stage and stole Sanders' mic but, in the end he is now incorporating a lot of new police brutality language into his speeches. On to your point of them kissing the Media's ass. I don't follow O'Malley, but I have seen most of Bernie's moments on air and I really do not see what you are getting at.

I know this rant seems like a mad Sanders supporter getting upset at any Hillary poster, but when you attack someone for "kissing ass" and being a "coward" for listening to ideas and being part of our democracy that crosses the line to me.

A Vice President of the United States...who compulsively puts his foot in his mouth.

A Senator from Vermont...who openly identifies as a socialist while apparently having no understanding of what that word means.

A former mayor of Baltimore and Governor of Maryland...who was succeeded by a Republican and  left office with a middling approval rating.

A former Secretary of  the Navy (under Reagan) and former (one term) Senator...who defends confederate "heritage".

A former Senator and Governor of Rhode Island...do I really need to explain why Lincoln Chafee is not a quality candidate?

1. And Hillary has never made a gaffe?

2. *Democratic-Socialist, and I'm thinking by your reply you don't know that is.

3.  2014 - Republican Wave, Low Turnout, Blah Blah Blah. Really wasn't all O'Malley's fault, I'll leave his defense to Dimpled though.

4. Yeah, I know, damn southerner! No politician in their right mind would defend the confederate flag and especially not use it in campaign memorabilia...


5. Hey, he voted against the Iraq war... Can't say the same for peacenik Hillary though...

They aren't all the best cherries in the field, (trying to get my phrase to catch on) but they are "quality".

Even granting the notion that Hillary is an increasingly unpopular candidate, a lot of the Democratic Party is already heavily invested in her campaign (in more ways than one). Unless most people within the donor class and the party's state and local affiliates, etc.  get on board with switching to Biden or whomever, a divided Democratic Party would be a sure way to lose the White House - which would mean the GOP/American Right would have full control of the Supreme Court, both houses of Congress, the executive branch....etc.

You do realize Hillary isn't the incumbent, right?
