New Hillary Clinton memoir likely to fuel 2016 speculation

WASHINGTON | Thu Apr 4, 2013 12:18pm EDT

(Reuters) - Hillary Clinton, already the front-runner in the minds of many Democrats for the 2016 U.S. presidential election, is writing a memoir about world affairs and her time as secretary of state that will likely fuel more speculation about her political future.

The presidential prospects of Clinton, the wife of former President Bill Clinton, are a subject of feverish speculation in Washington and elsewhere as Democrats look to see over the horizon past President Barack Obama.

The book, her fifth, is to be published next year, and a tour to promote the memoir in 2014 would serve only to generate more guessing about her plans for 2016.

Her inner circle insists Clinton has made no decision one way or the other. This has not stopped the formation of a "Ready for Hillary" political action committee to promote her potential candidacy and seek volunteers and monetary contributions.

and hopefully Joe Biden will also run, flank her like a football game blocker to stop all the
wannabees and nevergonnabees and take away all of their oxygen.

The last fight the better and its onto the General election of 2016 and let's win there.

Remember, Hillary did not lose the general election in 2016.

The analogy best is that Roger Federer and Rod Laver, both in their prime, played the US Open at their best and of course, come the championship match, there can only be one that gets the victory trophy.
Only one can. Nobody in the world would say either Rod Laver or Roger Federer were losers.

Hillary would also have kicked McCain's rear and and Mitt's rear end too.

candidates and then Bill spent the summer of 2004 promoting HIS memoir and used most of his high profile interviews to vigorously support Bush's military leadership.

Gee......wonder why they chose 2003 and 2004 to release their books and hold their book tours at the same time they were both giving maximum support to George Bush's military leadership?
