Rumor Has It Chelsea Clinton May Run for Congress in New York
Townhall ^ | 11/12/2016 | Jason Hopkins

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.

She is a co-conspirator in a criminal enterprise.

She ought to take the money she stole and disappear.

Mom’s charisma and dad’s (Hubbell) brain. Great choice.

It was amazing that when I went to vote, there was no conservative or republican even on the ballot ! Shameful.

This is one more reason why the incoming Trump administration has to re-investigate the email situation, as well as continue the investigation into the Clinton Foundation. Wikileaks revealed that the Clintons paid for Chelsea’s wedding with CF funds, as well as provided money to support her lifestyle out of CF funds. Chelsea is undoubtedly as dirty as her parents, and all 3 of them belong behind bars.

We need to put up a strong conservative to run against her. NO MORE CLINTONS!!

In New York you would have more luck with a Sanders-nista running against her in the primary.

The arrogance of these people is awe inspiring and dangerous.

I will do everything in my power to drive a stake into the heart of this nest of vampires. I will support with my money and time her primary opponents and her GOP rival in the general election.

This is more evidence that these people need to be CRUSHED without pity or mercy by the Trump Administration. Like the Communists, KKK, or Nazis the Clinton machine is a conspiracy against public order and must be broken up through all lawful means.

A cancerous tumor most be excised if the patient is to live.

Was Lowery one of the potential Senate candidates who had to stand down in 2000 in order to clear the way for H. Clinton to run that year?

You know they will. Watch for the "I'm ready for Chelsea!" bumper stickers. Hell, they can even dust off her Mom's blue campaign posters.

She might not be street smart, regardless of her academic skills.

She called for an audit of the Clinton foundation to “protect her Dad”, not realizing she was exposing the family business. That is why we got the damning Doug Band letter describing Teneo, sent to Podesta, and exposed thru Wiki leaks.
