I'm not certain who is in deeper trouble these days over the Benghazi scandal. Make no mistake. Despite the desperate claims to the contrary, the aftermath of the 9-11-2012, attack of the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, is just awash in compound coverup activities by the Obama administration.
The two major players that have something on the line over the Benghazi scandal are President Obama and former Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, who was still in the Obama Cabinet for six months after the Islamic terrorist attack that killed four Americans and wounded dozens of Americans and foreign staff members.
President Obama's second term and any possible effectiveness over the next three and a half years, hangs in the balance. But, possibly more important is how the scandal investigation unfolds and implicates Clinton in a conscious coverup for political purposes during the height of the 2012 presidential campaign.
Clinton is definitely on the campaign trail for the Democrat presidential nomination in 2016. Clinton feels entitled to the nomination. She and her adulterous husband Bill "Slick Willy" Clinton can taste it. Bill is probably already making a list of White House interns to interview for his leisure time with Hillary playing president. Okay, maybe this is a bit of hyperbole, but believe me when I say that the Clinton's want a second shot in living in the White House more than money.
She weathered Whitewater. She made it past Monica Lewinsky. Now Hillary Clinton is hoping to beat the rap on Benghazi and make it to the White House.
The Clinton political
machine is in full campaign mode already, preparing for 2016 and hoping voters forget by then that she had a key role in the Obama administration’s handling of the terror attack.
But that’s becoming more difficult as the GOP appears to be laying the groundwork for tying Clinton to Benghazi and making sure it stays front and center in the next campaign...

Here's Joe's tasty post script tease to his column.
And just in case Benghazi does end up costing Clinton the White House, there’s someone else ready and willing to take her place in the 2016 race.
U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren.
If that doesn't catch your attention, you are either brain dead or you just haven't been paying attention to American politics.
