Thought the Clinton political dynasty ended Tuesday night? Think again.
Sources to the New York Post are saying the Clintons are grooming Chelsea, daughter of Hillary and Bill, to run for Congress in New York’s 17th district. The district is currently represented by 79-year-old Rep. Nita Lowey. Lowey has been serving in office for nearly 30 years and mumblings of her impending retirement are growing.
Lowey’s district covers Chappaqua, an area where the Bill and Hillary have conveniently purchased a 1.16 million dollar home intended for Chelsea and her family. Despite living in Manhattan, Chelsea could easily move to the million-dollar home waiting for her and designate it her primary residence if she decides to run.
The anonymous source went on to say..
“While it is true the Clintons need some time to regroup after Hillary’s crushing loss, they will not give up. Chelsea would be the next extension of the Clinton brand. In the past few years, she has taken a very visible role in the Clinton Foundation and on the campaign trail. While politics isn’t the life Hillary wanted for Chelsea, she chose to go on the campaign trail for her mother and has turned out to be very poised, articulate and comfortable with the visibility.
“There has been a lot of speculation within New York Democratic circles about Lowey’s retirement and Chelsea running for the seat. There is a belief that Chappaqua is a logical place for Chelsea to run, because it would be straightforward for her to raise money and build a powerful base.”
It seems the Clintons don’t want to leave the public eye just yet.

What must we do to finally be done with these vermin????????
Good grief. What a worthless candidate. Hopefully she will be jailed, along with her parents, on RICO charges to do with the Clinton Foundation.
And if course the New Yorkers will elect her.
And they call Trump voters uneducated.
We need to put up a strong conservative to run against her. NO MORE CLINTONS!!
I can think of a few different things, but I don’t want to get banned.
Why not?
She's so qualified.
I’m sure Chelsea is going to be to busy, with raising kids, working for money after her mother and father are in prison...she won’t have time or the backing to run for anything except a bus to go to prison...
I hear she’s as dumb as Caroline Kennedy. And therefore she’ll likely have as much success as Caroline—so go for it Chelsea. Make our day.
Not to nitpick too much, but Chelsea could run from any congressional district in New York. You don’t have to live in the congressional district you represent, though you must be a resident of the state from which you run.
I heard the Clintons bought a house nearby, and had originally announced this house would be for weekend getaways for Chelsea and family.
OMGGGGGG. They need to GO AWAY!!!!!! God help us
The DNC obviously does not get it. This will ensure they continue to lose ad nauseum. We The People do NOT want the establishment!!!
Webb had no inkling of the consequences of that drunken night...
She’ll run her campaign just like Dear Old Commie Mom! No pressers and as LITTLE public exposure as possible.
The more that people SEE of Chelsea, the more people will DISLIKE Chelsea.
So many rumors. So few facts.
as qualified as anyone running as a Democrat.
Then, wait for it, Charlotte Clinton for president in 2052. No, the Clinton infestation can never be eradicated, only controlled.
You better hire a bodyguard Nita.
