D. from Harvard, an A. M. from Harvard and a B.A. from Yale.\u00a0 His credentials are impeccable.\u00a0 This is also published by Real Clear Politics, which has a reputation for at least trying to be fair and balanced.\u00a0 It will be hard, if not impossible, for the main stream media to ignore this.\u00a0 At a minimum, every Republican campaign and every top Democrat strategist is reading this very carefully. \u00a0Republican will probably say nothing, because when your opponent is self-destructing, the smart choice is to stand by and enjoy the show.\u00a0 Democratic strategists are probably throwing up.\u00a0 The nausea won\u2019t get any better when they read the part about Hillary being replaced by Joe Biden, John Kerry, or Elizabeth Warren.<\/p>\n<p>Following is what Lipson says may happen if Hillary is <strong>NOT<\/strong> indicted:<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Senior FBI officials, including Comey, might well resign. They could not abide, much less defend, an administration that overruled their independent legal judgment for political expediency. That is what happened when the Nixon administration attempted to stop the Watergate investigation. Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox, Attorney General Elliot Richardson, and other senior Justice Department officials all resigned rather than become complicit. The comparisons would be obvious \u2014 and catastrophic for the Obama administration and the Democratic Party. Third, there would be high-profile congressional investigations, putting Loretta Lynch and her political appointees in the crosshairs, as well as talk of impeachment. <\/em><\/strong><strong><em>In short, there would be a constitutional crisis at the end of Barack Obama\u2019s presidency, just before the Democratic Party nominates its candidate.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One final thought.\u00a0 In my opinion, the odds of Hillary Clinton being the next President of the United States are lower than my chances of winning the Powerball Lottery.\u00a0 I repeat my prior prediction that Hillary Clinton will drop out of the President race because of an undisclosed illness.\u00a0 The only thing certain is that there is zero chance Hillary Clinton will even consider doing the right thing.<\/p>\n<p>TDM<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The following article is stunning.\u00a0 There have been other articles addressing this subject, but this is by Charles Lipson.\u00a0 That really matters: http:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/articles\/2016\/01\/13\/hillary_clintons_coming_legal_crisis_129293.html Charles Lipson is Professor of Political Science at the University of Chicago.\u00a0 He has a Ph.
