Her issue is always the same, she doesn't campaign very well at all. Her strength is get in the weeds and just do the job as a wonk. Her negatives are her lack of being able to communicate in a way that inspires or seems trustworthy and believable. You add in the issues with the email server, with the Clinton Cash probe that is just starting up, and yes, even with Benghazi, and she is in for a very very tough fight. Lucky for her this time, there appears no other Democrat beside O'Malley that wants to take a shot at her for the primary.

I honestly do not remember how she campaigned against Obama. I have never been fond of Hillary, and never paid too much attention to her. I also tend not to pick candidates until we have the final candidates; I don't vote Republican or Democratic and I will not choose a candidate before they have won the nomination. I do not pick a candidate based on what "my party" tells me to pick - that is just nonsense.
As for the "issues", I do not believe they are issues at all. The email thing is silly (this is a common practice at the higher levels of government, and there is no proof of any wrong doing), and I haven't given too much thought to this so called "cash scandal" (We can already see the clear connection from the Bush family to the Bin Laden family). Benghazi is nothing more than childish. There have been multiple investigations saying Hillary was not at fault. The one investigation that says "it could have been prevented" does not point a finger towards Hilary, but instead points a finger at Congress who failed to approve additional funds for more security at embassies.
I am not saying that Hillary is going to be our next president. But saying that she won't get the nomination is bad guess.
