Tone Deaf Time: 'Hillary Clinton Gives Daily Show’s Jon Stewart No Clues on 2016 Candidacy'
NewsBusters ^ | July 16, 2014 | P.J. Gladnick

As Newsbusters' Jeffrey Meyer wrote earlier today, Jon Stewart lobbed softballs to Hillary Clinton last night on the Daily Show. It would have been nice if he asked if she were reconsidering the possiblility of running for president due to her book sales tumbling so quickly or what she thinks about the possibility of Elizabeth Warren running for the same office.  However the interview was significant in one respect: Hillary gaves the strongest hint yet that she is definitely going to throw her pantsuit into the ring.

It came at the 1:30 mark of this video when Hillary answered Stewart's question about her preference for the shape of her office. Your humble correspondent who was watching it live took notice of it, the loud response of the  studio audience also noticed it, and both Jonathan Karl and George Stephanopoulos of ABC's Good Morning took note of it. In fact, almost anybody with the slightest sense of humor also got what Hillary was really saying. So who didn't get it? Per Liljas of Time magazine who put his clueless observation on full display.

I believe this Time writer is from Sweden. Therefore I am assigning you as his humor tutor. He obviously has perfect command of English but needs to brush up on American humor.

Surprised? No.

Not the first time Hitlery had no clue.

You can't give what you don't have.

Hillary has two clues. One is lost and the other is looking for it.

Now if I had been the interviewer, I would have made a snide comment to the affect of "Without corners, how in the hell did Bill corner Monica?" But, clearly, with a attitude like that, I would never have been given a show in the first place.

That means she’s running, Jon. You know that. We all know that.

"No Clues Candidacy"

Sounds like an appropriate description of the upcoming Hitlery Clinton campaign...

Hillary needs the approval and endorsement of her millions of adoring fans before she can announce that she is pursuing the presidency.

That is how the game is worked. That is how the Great Mother Earth Goddess is supposed to find her destiny.

Wait a minute!

Isn’t it true that once you declare that you are
running for office - the clock starts ticking on
what you have to disclose about your donor base??
Possibly on your monetary cap on donations??

All these “are you running” BS interviews are all just that, just BS.

For her not to run would be the biggest surprise since the much revered EMK pulled out of the Democrat presidential sweepstakes c. 1984.
