Former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton is talking about running for New York City mayor, Newsmax reports.
It has only been 57 days since President-elect Donald Trump defeated Clinton. During the election slog, Clinton, 69, collapsed getting into a Secret Service van, had multiple coughing fits during speeches and seemed to have trouble walking up steps at a rally in Lake Worth, Fla.
If she ran, shed win, a Newsmax source said.
She was a New York senator from 2001 to 2009. During that time, her popularity peaked at 60 percent in 2001 and ping-ponged from as low as 47 percent in December 2002 to 57 percent in 2005 and then back down to 48 percent in May 2008 when she conceded the Democratic nomination to then-Sen. Barack Obama.

She needs to hold public office or at least demonstrate that there is the possibility of holding office for the donations to continue to flow to the phony foundation.
Hasn’t New York suffered enough?
Influence Peddling is a good business. It pays well and NYC should provide plenty of revenue sources for the Clintons. In the old days we called this sort of thing BRIBERY. But that's just so old fashioned. So yesterday.
Isn't that what they said when she ran for president?
“If she ran, shed win, a Newsmax source said.”

Well that’s rock-solid data right there!
Rhetorical question.
This would be an unmitigated disaster. That being said, I do not believe she will run.
Could be much fun to watch! 4 years of Clinton management could turn NYC into deep red territory!
NO ONE.
Hillary has a hard time getting a hundred people to listen to her talk when she's giving the speech away for free. With the Clintons it's about the money.
Clinton should run for Dog Catcher. But only for the female ones.
She can’t screw up nyc any more than it’s already screwed up.
There is somethng so pathetic and scary about people with an ambition to rule others people. She can’t just go and live a private life with her family and ill-gotten fortune.
Yes.
Doesn’t really matter. I continue to believe she is seriously ill.
She may be just acting like she’s physically fit enough to hold any sort of position. Like with all of these “walks in the woods” trying to bolster her image. Instead of simply becoming the first women president and then perhaps resigning at some point due to ill health.
That’s just sad. “Well if I cant be president...”
The megalomaniac
Oh please run Hillary. Please run. I think it would be the final humiliation of this carpet-bagging grafter. NY Dems have gotten out of the way to let her run. I hope and pray that they final grow a spine and tell Hillary and Chelsea that no one is going to let them waltz into a Congressional seat or the mayor’s office of NYC.
On the other hand, if she does, it will give Preet Bharara good reason to investigate and prosecute both of them and the entire Clinton family.
What a shot in the arm for Upstatehood!
Prosecute her and put an end to this “mulling”
