Clinton backers launch ‘Ready for Hillary’ super-PAC in hopes of 2016 campaign
The Hill ^ | January 28, 2013 | Cameron Joseph

Posted on 01/29/2013 5:43:38 AM PST by yoe

A group of Hillary Clinton supporters is launching a campaign to draft her to run for president — the first major push from an outside group for her to run.

The group, “Ready for Hillary,” filed as a super-PAC with the Federal Election Commission late last week and plans to roll out a website in the coming weeks.

It has already been active online, with nearly 50,000 Twitter followers and almost 30,000 people following the group on Facebook.

The effort is being spearheaded by Allida Black and Judy Beck, two longtime Clinton supporters who were on Clinton’s Virginia Women’s Steering Committee in 2008 and helped her raise more than $100,000.

The two also were behind Women Count, a political action committee that ran ads pushing back against calls for Clinton to drop out early from the 2008 presidential race.

Who wants this Clinton dynasty and why? Ms. Clinton's tenure at State brought about more unrest in the Mid-east that any prior US State Department Head ever and culminating last week with her What's the point...tantrum before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee Dog & Pony Show. America can and must do better than this...dare I say...lush.

Another elitist who thinks we owe her something, and she owes us nothing.

I’m so sick of these people who think they’re entitled to office. Besides, what gives her the right to jump ahead of Biden (just asking as a matter of principle)?

Hillary’s health is shot and she’s getting old and fat. I doubt that this will go anywhere.

It’s just sad that evil people like hillary, zero and soros continue to live and prosper and good people suffer and die young like a dear family member did recently.

It’s hard to live in this word where the Evil One and his minions (hillary, zero and soros) walk to and fro seeking whom they may devour.

She “retired” so that she can do a three year makeover. It’s going to take that long because she’s such a mess.

I have no doubt she’d like to run but I think her health may be a huge stumbling block. In light of the reports from recent weeks, I don’t think she’s well.

I don’t think she’s well.

I’m sure Biden is banking on that. Anyway, according to the interview on 60 minutes, she and obamba think exactly alike and we do not want a repeat of obamba’s legacy.

And if she tries, she is sure to get an answer to her “what difference does it make” question. Hillary is finished Bengazi killed her and Susan Rice.

If she is well enough, she will run and she will win. I have no doubt about this. Another “historic” election, and the only reason she stayed married to Bill the philanderer/rapist.

What sin? I think you mean sins but since you asked here’s a list.

1. abortion ( 55 million dead babies)
2. materialism over God
3. glorification of fornication ( leads to single parenting, divorce, disease, poverty and crime)
4. promotion of class warfare by desire for redistribution of wealth...ie theft

there are more if you are interested

I would love to agree with you that Hellary is finished but Hellary and Boob Clintoon won’t be finished until THEY say they’re finished.My reason? Take a look at the voters we have today. I fear they won’t get anything but “stupider” in the next 4 years. :(

Seriously? Did you see her at those hearings? She looked like an 80 year old contestant from that Nerd reality show whose wardrobe was designed by a colorblind sofa upholsterer.

All the King’s Horses and all of Pelosi’s Plastic Surgeons ain’ t putting THIS one together again!

Does anyone know when the last time was that they actually lived together?

Maybe, but I saw a story posted here recently that she considered herself done in politics, but that it was Slick and Chelsea pushing her to run for their own self-interests.

"Take a look at the voters we have today"

Well yeah, there is that, but Hillary's incompetence is so obvious that I think even the less informed voters will see she is no where near up to being president. I will admit I was surprised that Obama was elected and flaggerasted that he was reelected. So you might be correct, but I remain optimistic.
