This is a perfect 10
Hillary is really ducking...Bubba is silent!!
Sure...Blame the dead guy!!
Nothing can be allowed to cloud Hillay’s campaign. The wheels have been put into motion.
Priorities USA, the countrys largest liberal super-PAC, has started to raise money for Hillary Clintons potential presidential bid in 2016, The New York Times reports.
President Obamas 2012 campaign manager, Jim Messina, has been named co-chairman of the political action committee, according to the Times. Former Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm (D) will also help lead the operation.
I think the numbers clearly show that shes the strongest presidential candidate on the Democratic side, Messina told the Times. And Priorities is going to be there for her if she decides to run.
Messinas move had been expected for a while after The Washington Post and Buzzfeed reported in November that he had been in talks with Priorities.
The Times says Messina declined to say whether he had informed Obama and Vice President Biden about his new position. Biden is considered another potential contender in the Democratic race, and could challenge Clinton.
John Podesta had also been in negotiations to join Priorities, which Buzzfeed reported in November. Podesta, however, joined the Obama White House as a top adviser last month. He previously served as former President Clintons chief of staff.
Priorities says it hopes to raise more money than the $67 million used to fund ads attacking Mitt Romney during the 2012 presidential cycle.
Messina says he would try to reproduce the progress the Obama campaign made in television microtargeting.
Priorities did not have that ability last time, because we were on the other side of the wall inventing it, Messina said.
Other campaign veterans loyal to Obama and Clinton are also heading up Prioritiess operation. Buffy Wicks serves as the super-PACs executive director, and worked as a field director during the Obama campaign. Jonathan Mantz, Clintons finance director for her 2008 campaign, and Peter Kauffmann, press secretary during Clintons 2000 U.S. Senate bid, have also joined Priorities.
Clinton has not yet announced whether she intends to run for the White House again.”
