NYT: Clinton Campaign to Be Built on an 'Obama Third Term'

Hillary Clinton plans to build her planned quest for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination on a risky strategy that touts a "new chapter" that builds on President Barack Obama's efforts and embraces her 2008 opponent as a key ally and adviser.

Clinton, 67, who is expected to announce her candidacy on Sunday, "is proud of what was accomplished, both as President Obama’s partner on critical issues of national security, and on the progress made on the domestic front," her spokesman, Nick Merrill, told The New York Times.

Merrill added that Clinton's campaign, "would be about laying out her own vision for tackling our toughest challenges."

The Times sums up the dilemma facing Clinton this way: "How can she run for president as her own person, without criticizing the sitting president she served — while her Republican opponents will be working to demonize them both?"

The former secretary of state can take little credit for many of what Obama considers as his strongest domestic accomplishments — Obamacare, for instance — and she opens herself to widespread attacks regarding such foreign policy issues as Israel, Iran, and Russia, the Times reports.

LOL, we've been saying a Hillary presidency would be an Obama 3rd term.

Run on Obama's legacy, run, run Hillary!

Call Heidi and tell her to take the girls shopping for drapes, china and fixtures for the living quarters.

Remember Slick Willies campaign: “It's time for a change?”
Now his long lost wife with cankles and a closet full of pant suits wants “more of the same.” This is ripe, and every Republican contender should have plenty of room to run with this. Oh boy, how sweet it is! Hildabeast, you are doomed.

She is admitting that she wants to finish taking this Country down. Nothing else to say nice.

Wow, she really does have a (political) death wish.

She is really misreading the public IMO.

There are a lot of people out there angry for every buying into this guy’s false hope.

Now Hillary wants to run on it? Whoa, this one is strong with the farce.

I know a far lefty, who voted for Obama twice says she is not going to vote for Hillary. Not sure about the rest of the Gruber voters.

Nope...they’ll see that it happens.

Maybe I’ll be dead by then.

I don’t know fully what to make of the Obama voters.

You would think they would have learned by now, but there’s just no telling.

I’ve heard stories like yours, but I’ve thought folks would wake up far before this and they haven’t seemed to.

NYT: Clinton Campaign to Be Built on an 'Obama Third Term'

Now that Hillary has agreed to run as an Obama Third Term, Obama and the media will stop trying to sabotage Hillary.

For example the email stuff will no longer be covered by the media.
