You are THAT afraid of the GOP reteric?
The GOP and the media hit her with everything they had for months and years and she still won the popular vote.
I'm up for new blood, but your argument against Hillary Clinton does not hold water.

I think the only person Trump could have beat was Hilary. I think if were anyone but her the outcome would have been different. When you look at the exit data it becomes clear. In Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin, young voters didn't turn out for her like they did for Obama and she lost those states. Maybe Trump having now been in office will be motivation enough for those young voters, but I wouldn't count on it. Democrats got fired up this midterm for new, interesting candidates. They don't need to squash that momentum by bringing old, crooked Hilary back out for another run.
Of course, what happens over the next two years will play a major role in all of this. If the Mueller investigation is bad for Trump it may be a case where he can't win again no matter who runs against him. If he is impeached, steps down, or just doesn't run again then, who knows, Maybe Hilary could beat another candidate, but I guess it would depend on who it was and/or what all went down.

Gallup shows her favorability rating has actually gone down since the election and is now slightly lower than Trump's.
