Getting down to it, Carly would be their best gamble.
Carly does have a past i.e. her term at HP, but I think people can get past that.
What Carly would and could do is exactly what Hillary is going to do, campaign as the first woman to be elected president.
This is going to be Hillary's advantage.
And where that advantage could be defused would be from Carly going up against Hillary.
Strip away Hillary's "woman" advantage.
And I'd bet Carly could win over Hillary in the end simply because I believe more voters would prefer the first woman elected president would be republican rather than democrat.
A republican woman just "feels" stronger and more capable running the nation than a democrat of the same gender.
And this despite Hillary's qualifications.
Hillary has a past, Carly equally has a past. But....
Carly is younger, promotes herself better, and I would think more desirable as a leader.
And Carly would also break that glass ceiling Hillary talks about so much.
Lets face it, Americans LOVE to make history and to take part in making history.
This is Hillary's huge advantage in this election.
Exactly as Obama took advantage of his minority status during the 2008 election, Hillary absolutely will do exactly the same when the time comes and when the going gets tough.
This is her trump card she is holding onto, ready to play when needed.
Carly would defuse that advantage Hillary holds and for Hillary that would be a devastating blow for her chances.
None of the other republicans have a chance against Hillary, one on one.
Lets face it. When it comes to the republicans running, every one of them except for Jeb is a crap shoot. Jeb is full on establishment, he is the exception and everyone knows what they are getting with Jeb, which this time no one is buying into.
So, as far as the crap shoot goes, Carly would be their best bet against Hillary.
If the woman factor is removed from the equation, Hillary takes the loss and Carly assumes all the advantage.
Really, unless republicans would be just fine with Hillary as president, and who knows maybe they would if truth be told, but in all reality Carly levels the playing field. The first woman president factor.
Do not underestimate Americans love for making history. And taking part in that.
Something Hillary knows all too well will get her elected.
