Hillary Clinton Staff on Alert

CNN: “The long and winding prelude to her announcement is nearly over, according to aides, and the start of her second bid for the White House is likely only days away. Top Democratic activists in the early-voting states of Iowa and New Hampshire privately say they have been placed on alert that Clinton will soon be on her way.”

“The specific moment she jumps into the race remains a closely-guarded secret, even inside the crowded corridors of her small office suite in Manhattan, which new aides have descended upon to build the operation. Only a handful of confidantes actually know the precise time Clinton will pull the trigger — first on social media — yet aides have been instructed to be ready from Monday forward.”

It's overrated, and TV pundits discuss it too much. Much of the time as they discuss random comments on Twitter, I sit thinking 'who cares?'

She hates campaigning and she isn't very good at it. She would delay until July 2016 if she could, but the continued delay is beginning to hurt her.
