According to the election pages the upcoming ones against Cornyn and Perry-or-whoever-is-the-GOP-nominee-if-he-doesn't-run-again, she already publically opted out of the notion of joining those races.
I know she could run for a lower office than Governor or Senator but I think we all want her in one of those positions. On the one hand, maybe she could be convinced to run sooner. On the other hand, how great would it be for her to replace Ted Cruz ?
update: 5:08 AM Just saw an edited clip from Chris Hayes and it looks like maybe she's reconsidering a sooner run.

maybe she can get some administration position under the next President .

(9,462 posts)it can get. I don't understand the public opting-out thing. They are going to re-district her now that the Voting Rights Act has been shot down. They said she would lose if they did. I wonder if they change the districts if that will undo whatever public opting-out thing there is

I know what I stand for and I can't stand Rand or Ron.
imho
95% of the democratic party supports the President and the Clinton's, especially Hillary.
IT's now more apparent than ever
And the sooner the better- the change in the court is 100% dependent on the Democratic candidate being President.
