ABC News has put out a segment of Diane Sawyers interview with Hillary Clinton where she addressed questions about her health and Karl Rove calling her potential brain damage an issue in the election.
She talked in some detail about her physical health, the incident regarding her treatment and told Sawyer she would release her medical records as other candidates have. When asked to comment on Roves brain damage swipe, Clinton simply said, I know he was called Bushs brain and I wish him well.

(63,768 posts)I think she's just warning these effers that she don't bring no knife to a gun fight...
and this is certainly not her first rodeo, boys...

(21,115 posts)unlike PBO...who I suspected did not know what he was dealing with at first. Did not understand he was not dealing with honest brokers in the Republican Party. Hillary knows what they are capable of!

(1,250 posts)This book she's promoting is part of her campaign, her run.
She's gearing up.
And whether people like it or they don't like it, ain't nothing getting in her way to that White House in 2016.
This ain't a woman who sits around the house feeding pigeons at the park.
She stepped down as Secretary of State in Obama's 2nd term because you can't run for President & be Secretary of State at the same time.
Did she need a break? Sure. She's resting & relaxing.
Why?
Because it's the calm before the storm.
Her real reason wasn't JUST to spend more time with her family & JUST to take care of her health.
She needs that downtime to prepare for that UPTIME when she unleashes that Juggernaut & steamrolls EVERYBODY who gets in her way in 2016.
She's even preparing her Presidential outfits like you see in this interview.
How DOES a female President dress?
Most likely not gonna be wearing suits & ties.
This interview shows her wearing blue which has more vitality than black but is still seen as a serious color.
I have seen her wearing black too. She got different necklaces & pearls & stuff.
How she slipped that Paul Ryan thing in so smoothly that it sounds like a plausible part of the story about concussion recovery.
The girl is a pro, can't take that away from her.
Just get used to it y'all. It's Hillary vs. Jeb in 2016.
Jeb was too chicken to run in 2012 especially so close to his brother's infamous run.
They let Mitt take the L like a sucker.
He's ready now that Obama won't be in the picture.
Clinton vs. Bush AGAIN! It's too obvious.
As we can see Hillary's ready.
Even slapped 'em with the Golden Girls line. It's over man!

(21,115 posts)partnerships....He chose her for a reason....she's smart and tough! Bill had lots of peccadillos over the years....but not one of them were ever able to sweep him away from her. There is a reason for that! The reason....is Hillary Rodham Clinton....Bill Clinton did not get where he is all by his lonesome.....she was the woman behind the man. And now that the man has done his work and is retired.....She is ready to step up!

(1,250 posts)Could it be 2014 or 2015?
Break it down by the month even.
No money bet. Just for funsies.
You can even put down 2 choices.
I say it's gotta be AFTER 2014 elections so...
Anywhere from December 2014 to June 2015 at the latest.

(21,115 posts)she won't want to interfere with that...

(1,250 posts)I say it goes no later than June 2015.
But she already has her machine working right now.
That will be only the formal announcement.

(21,115 posts)thats plenty of time and she can quietly ramp up in the meantime. If she ends up with PBO's database...she's a shoe in!

(9,298 posts)needs to be put out to pasture. She interrupted and seemed bent on getting HRC to say something, anything that would cause concern about her state of health. Just awful.
sarchasm
(1,009 posts).. not a phrase I'd use for a woman, EVER.
I think it was well done of Diane, by trying to keep HRC off balance it shows how well HRC does in any high pressure public forum. It doesn't do anyone any service to coddle the interviewee.

(3,544 posts)She handled Sawyer perfectly. This woman has her shit together. I just loved that she references Rove and Ryan like it was no big deal. Yes, they're both idiots, and she just blows it off like it's nothing. The GOP is constantly trying to discredit her(and all democrats), just to have the shit thrown right back at them, but she does it in a professional manner. She has class. They have none. And they are constantly reminded of this. The GOP is toast. I can't wait for the next GOP representative to open their mouth, just to be thrown under the bus again. It's quite comical.
How smart would a person have to be to be called "Bush's Brain"?? Rove was on one segment, denying he insinuated that Hillary was brain damaged. He was blinking so fast, those little piggy eyes of his were difficult to even see!!The dems. are on to all the dirty tricks this sub-human has in his bag.Shame on Sawyer, asking about the non-entitity Lewinski. Someone should ask Sawyer about all the rumors about HER marriage. Far from "happy", too many others involved. Sawyer is trying to replace Walters.

(18,124 posts)she just might, if elected POTUS, pleasantly surprise us with the direction in which she steers this country. At least, I hope.
Voice for Peace
(13,141 posts)She wouldn't be my first choice for a president but
at the same time I think she could accomplish an
enormous amount, keep the ship turning in the
direction started by this president. I don't think she
would lead backwards or unfairly. She is profoundly
potent on women's rights, internationally. She has
no fear of the Republicans. By now surely she
knows way more than she and Bill knew back then.
Human rights, environment, economy for all, not
just the rich.
I can't think of any other potential candidate who
could occupy the Oval Office so well prepared.

(3,205 posts)...to the Mitch McConnell remark about the "return of the Golden Girls"
HRC: "That was a very popular, long running series" and then her laugh.
She's certainly not perfect, but she's got more brains and class then the entire republican party.

(63,768 posts)Mitch McConnell has a lot of nerve talking about her age...one look at his creepy old face is pretty scary...but please proceed, Mitch...

(1,250 posts)He gets his 2 terms, she gets her terms afterwards.
I don't know why anybody's surprised.
All you gotta do is look at her Wikipedia entry & check out how many times it says "the first" this & "the first" that.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hillary_Rodham_Clinton
The woman has prepared for this ALL OF HER LIFE.
Barack was DESTINED for that spot & that's the only reason she lost in 2008.
Without him she would have been the 44th President of the United States.
Now because of that happening she is GUARANTEED to be the 45th President of the United States.
You thought she went hardcore in 2008?
She's gonna go NUCLEAR in 2016! It's gonna be like Vegeta's Final Flash!
She is THE JUGGERNAUT in 2016 & if you don't wanna get RUN THE F OVAH you better stay out of her way.
In the end when it's the obvious Hillary vs. Jeb matchup, Jeb will end up being the roadkill.
I'm settled with it.
This time it IS the Inevitable Candidate.
Hillary Rodham Clinton *IS* the 45th President of the United States of America.
Put your prospects up for 2024 'cause the next 8 years are sewn up.
The stats are coming.
First Female President. First First Lady to become President. First Husband. First former President to become First Husband.
Lots more Firsts than that are coming in 2016.
Just get ready for it. There's no escape.
