Or: Former GOP VP Candidate Paul Ryan Gives Hillary Clinton Her First Soundbite for 2016 Campaign Ad.

Doubtful, since she voted YAY! on the banksta bailouts (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-01-26/only-3-minutes-worth-listening-davos) too.

Paul Ryan: Hillary Clinton Would Have 'Fixed This Fiscal Mess'

WASHINGTON -- Former Republican vice presidential candidate Rep. Paul Ryan (Wis.) said Sunday that if Secretary of State Hillary Clinton were president, the nation's fiscal crisis would have been averted.

“Look, if we had a [Hillary] Clinton presidency, if we had Erskine Bowles as chief of staff of the White House or president of the United States, I think we would have fixed this fiscal mess by now," Ryan said on NBC's "Meet the Press." "[But] that’s not the kind of presidency we’re dealing with right now.” Bowles was chief of staff to former President Bill Clinton, and currently co-chairs the Campaign to Fix The Debt, a bipartisan deficit reduction effort.

I hope that's the way it's headed! This left-right BS is so tired.

But, Fox News tells me hes a big fan of ayn rand. How could this be?

What? Is this a joke?

Listen guys, Paul Ryan is just positioning himself for a 2016 run. He knows he has to tap into the Democratic base. Watch his votes. /Ryan apologist

Well if that's the case, he sure shot himself in the foot! It'll be kinda hard to run against someone when she's showing ads of you saying how awesome she would have been.

The more these d-bags say the more I think about looking into the sovereign citizen movement.

Its simply a play to cause instability in the democratic party. Anyone who agrees with his statement necessarily agrees that Obama is doing a really bad job.

Will the Republicans remember this when he runs in 2016? Only if the media wants them to....

Oh, and I don't know if they're still around, but there were a lot of disaffected Hillary voters in '08.

[erowe1]

That's the kind of thing that good reporters would follow up, saying, "How would she have fixed it?"

I'd love to hear Ryan's answer to that.

What would ever drive a true conservative to say something like this? Oh wait...

Last I heard they were all living in tents, eating food stamp lobster & steaks.

There was a lady in the place I used to work at who was a big Hillary fan. She's a Democrat to the core but would not vote for Obama because he was black (she actually used the N word), and hated the Mexicans...

What is her beef with Mexicans , did she elaborate ? Has she ever been to Mexico ? :)

She used to be a member here with the handle truelies.

It was in Chicago, a lot of people from south of the border here. There were so many of them, the joke was: "You're in America, speak Spanish, damn it." :) She was just a bigoted person, something I wanted to point out because that's usually something throw at those of us who simply disagree with Obama with his socialist policies. I'm sure there is quite a few racists on the right, but from my experience a lot of people on the left have those same tendencies. If there is racism in America it's not exclusive to those "tea-baggers" if at all as the left would have you believe. Like I said about the lady I used to work with. She was a hardcore Democrat but would say derogatory things about blacks and Hispanics...

[oyarde]

I have never really known racist conservatives, but have known many others who were....

That's why it only works if she doesn't run in 2016. For all the certainty being thrown around these days, it's still not guaranteed that she will run. It was a tough campaign in 2008, to be the front runner all the way to summer, then get beat out by a (relatively) unknown candidate.

I think Paul Ryan and several others will wait to see if Hilllary is in before they decide to take a serious run. If it's not Hillary, it could be John Kerry, and Paul Ryan would no doubt jump at the chance to go up against his old running mate. :)

N/M I thought the OP title said Hillary would have "Fixed the Fecal Mess"

[anaconda]

Maybe Ryan is hoping to be her VP pick in 2106.
