Is Hillary Clinton Running For President in 2016?

Despite appearances, I don’t think she definitely is, nor do I think she’s a shoo-in for the Democratic nomination.

She’s running. And given the relative clown show that is the Democrats’ bench, she may actually win the nod. I would not have thought it possible, but when Biden and Sanders are your only competition, it’s gonna be hard, even for Hillary, to screw that up.

Personally, I think Wall St. has already chosen its two preferred candidates, and it matters not  to them which of the two wins. It’ll be Hillary Clinton v. Jeb Bush, unless the American people can somehow manage to shout louder than all their money.

Perfect answer!

I think barring a major event (health, etc.), she’ll run.   My hunch is that she’s probably genuinely torn about whether she wants to deal with the hell of another campaign, but… the chance to break the ultimate glass ceiling will be too compelling to refuse.

Let’s not kid ourselves. We KNOW the old ‘ho will throw her oversized hat into the arena and run. Personally I’d rather have Vlad the Impaler in the white house.

She is definitely running. Podesta doesn’t leave the White House to help her be a better grandmother. I also think the lack of a credible alternative hurts her. Since she doesn’t have to worry about having the money to run, she needs a primary fight (at least a little one) to hone her campaign. She’s not a great campaigner or politician and you cannot win the election if you are not. Warren getting in would help Hillary more than it will hurt her.

The carpetbagging, self entitled, old hag will definitely run for president. After all nobody could ever love her the way she loves herself.

If she is definitely running, why hasn’t she come out and started her campaign?

Because once a candidate announces, they fall under FEC rules for disclosure on fundraising and spending.

Oh give me a break. It’s not like there’s going to be another election already? It’s certainly an exiting display of democracy in action, I must say. Could life be any more exciting. Although some would say there is always excitement to be found in watching paint dry, I must say. It’s always such a thrill watching the different areas lose their moisture into the ambient atmosphere. But maybe that’s just me.

I’m less convinced than others are that Hillary will run. She appears tired in recent photographs, to me at least, and she would be one of the oldest candidates ever to mount a run. Can she be effective? I’m not sure.
