Yes, she lost to Trump once before, but that was before we experienced Trump's first term including his handling of Covid and instigating the Insurgency, not to mention his history of illegal actions, now being tried in the courts. Hilary Clinton could rally the women's vote and be a real advocate for abortion rights and she would also bring back into the fold those who thought she should have won in 2016.
She would not be tied to supporting all of the Biden positions, recognizing that her election would provide an opportunity for a fresh start, a time of review and reevaluation after the election. Not only that, but her candidacy would also provide a way to sidetrack the Gaza issue, removing it from the campaign and allowing those who were so displeased with Biden's position on Netanyahu and the atrocities in Gaza to have a viable option. This will require some political agility, which hopefully she has learned over the years.
Most importantly, from an unencumbered position, she would be able to confront Trump on the issues of honesty and ethics, which are his greatest potential weaknesses.
If the Democrats can orchestrate a swift and clean withdrawal by Joe Biden in favor of a proven effective option in Hillary Clinton, the Democratic Party can turn this unfortunate reality into a winning strategy for the Party and for the nation, perhaps a silver-lining solution.
