Hillary Clinton looks for her role in midterms
The Hill ^ | 7/8/201 | Amie Parnes

Posted on 07/08/2017 2:47:31 PM PDT by simpson96

Hillay Clinton wants to play a role in next year’s midterm elections. It’s just not clear yet what that role will be.

Clinton has already launched a PAC aimed at helping congressional Democratic candidates in 2018, signaling the former first lady, senator and secretary of State is ready to help her party with fundraising.

She also is looking at the House districts she won in last year’s presidential contest against Donald Trump as part of an autopsy of her failed campaign, according to two sources who have spoken to the former Secretary of State.

It’s at least possible she’ll lend a hand on the campaign trail — particularly in the 23 districts held by Republicans where voters preferred her over Donald Trump for the White House. “She's very well aware of how she performed in those districts,” said one longtime Clinton confidant who has spoken to the former Democratic nominee.

“She knows she won Darrell Issa's district by 8,” the confidant said, referring to the California Republican who is a top Democratic target. “She knows she came close in about a handful of others. She has studied this stuff thoroughly.”

She needs to stay relevant through 2018 to gain the energy for 2020.

Some people just DON'T learn.

Mrs. Clinton will be the "kiss of death".

Republicans couldn't wish for anything better than HER heading up the DIMM resistance.

Maybe the wax museum needs a new exhibit in the hall of ghouls.

Hillary should run for POTUS again in 2018. I think she could win it then.

She will never give up.....

Throw her a roll and call it a day, or perhaps a croissant.

“Hillary Clinton looks for her role in midterms”

that one’s easy: Hillary can go around AFTER the election making excuses as to why the Dems lost. She’s had a lot of practice at it during the six months and should be in peak “excuse” form by 2018.

The GOP are indeed fortunate to have Hill and Barry fighting for relevance in the dumocrat party. Whichever one wins, it’s a victory ... for the GOP.

When the local dem candidate is asked who they would prefer (Hill or Barry) to campaign for them, how many will say neither?

Are they any way possible for the DNC to tell the old skank to disappear. If they want to remain the underdog from now on just keep 0bama and Hillary at the head of the pack
