Pelosi: Hillary Clinton's 'Our Shot' in 2016

(CNN) – House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi kept the “Hillary Clinton for president in 2016” refrain alive in an interview published Sunday.

“Why wouldn’t she run? She’s a magnificent secretary of state,” Pelosi told the San Francisco Chronicle when asked about Clinton’s 2016 ambitions. “She’s our shot.”

The Democratic congresswoman and former House speaker similarly stoked the flames in April, describing the prospect as “so exciting.”

Clinton, the former first lady and New York senator, has consistently shot down speculation of a future political run, saying her current State Department post will be her last in public office. But her insistence has done little to quell the rumors.

Former President Clinton on Thursday left the door ajar to a 2016 run by his daughter, Chelsea, or wife, Hillary, saying, “we will just see.”

I guess if you do enough recreational drugs you could probably come up with a few reasons why you think Hillary would make a good president.

Chelsea has an impressive resume of being on TV a couple of times.

She hangs out with Gwyneth Paltrow. If she is spotted with Bono, we know she's serious.

Is Bill Clinton’s mind going? He’s suggesting that his daughter could run for president in 2016?? Really??? He’s really drawing an equivalence between Hillary and Chelsea as potential presidential candidates???? And nobody will call him out on the absurdity of that?????

We laugh at the prospect of Chelsea being president. But I’m not sure it can’t happen. Sickening, but possible.

How old is Chelsea? Heck, she has about the same amount of experience as Obama did.

Chelsea could indeed become President.

Senator Alvin Greene told me so.

If Romney wins this... and then messes up... and things get worse... we could very well end up with Hillary in 2016.

We need to back away from the North Korean model of succession and try to return to elections based on superior qualifications.
