So, lets assume that Hillary doesnt run for the White House, for a second.

She wiped her servers clean, she lied to the public about wanting to to send e-mails from only one device, her top staffer had an unusually cozy and lucrative relationship with a shadowy PR front group that is being probed by the Senate, the relationship between her and her husband is a bit unique, and her husbands former paramour and intern is now starring on The View.

So, let just posit that Hillary becomes untenable as a presidential candidate. The one thing that is propping her up is the sad fact that the Democrats have no bench. Who will run if Hillary doesnt run, the question goes.

Here are my power Top 10 rankings about the Democratic field, sans Hillary.

10) Amy Klobuchar: The Minnesota Democratic senator is widely viewed as whip-smart and she fits a key demographic for the Democrats, being a woman and all. She doesnt have a particular constituency and she doesnt have much of a national constituency, but she still deserves a spot on the Top 10..

9) Deval Patrick: Former governor, African-American, friend of Barack, former client of David Axelrod. He did such a good job as governor that the Republicans took back the governors mansion after he left.

8) Andrew Cuomo: Cuomo should be higher on the list, but he is so unlikeable, he is stuck at No. 8. A nasty divorce with a member of the Kennedy Family doesnt help things. But he is tough and will have access to New York money.

7) Antonio Ramon Villaraigosa: The former Mayor of Los Angeles is smart, good-looking and probably the leading Hispanic Democratic possibility. He is a good fundraiser and if he decides to run, he could make a splash with a key Democratic constituency.

6)Kirsten Gillibrand: Harry Reid once described her as the hottest United States senator which I am sure made the New York Democrat blush. Either that or turn red in anger. Gillibrand is ambitious, plenty smart, and tough as nails. Also would have access to New York money.

5. Jerry Brown: As the successful governor of the largest economy west of the Mississippi, Brown has a real record he could point to. He has fixed the California budget problem (largely) and by comparison, he looks rational. He is old, but so is the vice president.
