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.

“What must we do to finally be done with these vermin????????”

Take down the Clinton Foundation and the CGI. The entire Clinton clan are up their eyeballs in those “enterprises,” so you press against them on RICO violations and the whole house of cards comes down, and the Clintons and their crime family will just be bad memories.

Before Chelsi Clinton can run for office...we need to find out who she really is. IMHO......a good look at her lips and face have the map and image of Webb Hubbell of “WaterGate” & Rose Law Firm mantra, all over her!!! Is he the real Poppa of Chelsi Clinton? Media....do your job, and just give us the facts!!!

NITA LOWEY — anyone remember her? I’m old enough to remember that Nita Lowey wanted to leave the House and become a member of the Senate, but this was exactly the same time that Killary decided she wanted to run for the Senate in NY. So Lowey stepped aside for a Killary Coronation. Looks like its going to happen to her again!

Someday, the far left wing “media” will be telling us the she’s “the most qualified person ever to run for president in the history of America.” Geez. That crap gets old.

I also remembered she wasn’t good at 3 subjects but she was ‘forcibly’ passed by the profs because...you know what happens if you cross a Clintoon. Until now I think those same 3 professors still teach those courses.

Lowey just got reelected didn’t she? She ran unopposed, and campaigned for Hillary. Why would she run if she was planning on retiring? Or maybe she doesn’t yet know she’s going to retire. I can see the Clinton’s using threats and intimidation for her to retire. If she did retire, would Cuomo be able to appoint a Democrat like Chelsea Clinton to complete Lowey’s term? Hopefully, within the next two years of Lowey’s term, a Trump appointed special prosecutor, or the FBI will go forward with indictments of the Clinton’s pertaining to their Global Initiative and Foundation. We can hope anyway.

Is this really a surprise?

The Clinton clan is a political family with a capital P.

As arrogant as the Kennedy’s and so much slimier. IMO

What else would Chelsea do in her life? It is all she knows.
