Could Hillary Clinton run for New York mayor
2017-01-06
The background to this article g(r)omgoru posted late yesterday.
  • [Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] The website Newsmax is floating the idea that Hillary Clinton is 'talking about' running for New York City mayor

  • Clinton is reportedly feeling pressure from donors and Democratic Party leaders who are less-than-pleased with current Mayor Bill de Blasio

  • While it's highly unlikely that Clinton would give politics another go so soon, she has surprised people in the past by running for senate in 2000

  • Her decision to become President Obama's secretary of state in 2008, was also eyebrow-raising, after the two politicians' bitter primary battle earlier that year

#16  It's a possible win for NYC here. I mean, Hill hasn't been able to accomplish anything in her other jobs, so it would be net improvement for the citizens of NYC.
Think of it as a "loser's consolation" prize.

#13  The entire Clinton Foundation and paid speaking engagement scheme are based on selling access to power. Since the entire Donk system has been reduced to making noise and virtue signaling to keep the serfs awake it's hard to get six figure speeches to fund their majestic lifestyle expectations and ego salving. So, Gracie Mansion offers a low rent option and a place from which to continue to get media attention. Sadly, in the nest of vipers that is NYC politics, even more of the shabby truth about Hildabeest will be revealed in the tabloid press each morning. Plus, imagine the photos of Bill and the energizer bunny in Chapaqua while Huma spends evenings with her wife?

#9  Would anyone notice a difference if she replaced DeBlasio?

#8  Should he actually run and win, Trump should call her every now and then and ask her what the view is like down there.

#3  Addicted to power.

I recommend forced separation - in a 8x8 grey concrete cell for 10-40 years (just to make sure). Straight-Jacket optional.
