Hillary Clinton: "I'm ready to come out of the woods" http://hill.cm/x87zihH

Hillary Clinton spoke at the Society of Irish Women's 19th Annual St Patrick's Day dinner in Scranton, Pa., Friday and encouraged people not to let politics divide them.
"I do not believe that we can let political divides harden into personal divides," Clinton said, according to reporters at the event. "We can’t just ignore or turn a cold shoulder because they disagree politically, we have to listen to each other and learn from each other."
"I am ready to come out of the woods and to shine a light on what’s already happening around kitchen tables at dinners like this to help draw strength to enable everyone to keep going, that's the spirit of Scranton," she said.
The statement that she is ready to "come out of the woods" appears to allude with the viral posts of Clinton being spotted hiking in the woods near her Chappaqua, N.Y., home shortly after the election, which was also the subject of a "Saturday Night Live" skit.
It also suggests Clinton, who has remained relatively low-profile since the election, is ready to get back into the spotlight.

5. She's more than welcome to come out of the woods...
But that should not include a run again for President.
:tongue:

50. Hasn't She Been Criticised Enough Already?
Why so ready to jump her regarding future plans? How about everybody step back and see what’s on her mind, first, before letting the negativity fly.
The good news is that Hill will probably try to **** up Barry's shit more than anything else.

6. Meh. She and Bill are figures from the past and they really should both let others have the stage.
Hill-haters are still strong with the DU Force

10. Sorry, but as someone whose has devoted her life to public service she has every right, and some would say an obligation to do so
It's for the children

46. This isn't about running for president but adding her voice to the resistance.
See! The leftists are gonna **** up another word. the Resistance used to mean something and now?

24. Jimmy Carter and Jerry Brown are older than her, and more relevant to the Democratic soul than others in the party. Sorry, but you gotta TAKE the stage. You gotta stick your neck out there.
If somebody else wants a turn, they have to STEP UP.
THAT's leadership.

30. Gavin Newsom.
We could use someone from the West Coast who isnt afraid to lead on issues like cannabis legalization
:rotf:
Star Member LuvLoogie (3,412 posts)
45. If he can gain the Governor's office in California and implement single-payer,
that would be a geater accomplishment. I think cannabis legalization has momentum in spite of Sessions' opposition to it.
I don't think Newsom could leave in the middle of a first Governor's term. So he would have to win in 2018, win re-election in 2022, then run for President in 2024 when he is 56 or 2028 when he is 60.
California is a big job, if Newsom bails after two years--after Old Man Jerry kicked ass and took names, a second time, in his 80s--I think his star will dim.
He needs to anchor California in the face of this ****ed up right-wing tide. If he does that, then I'll jump on his wagon. But he ain't no Jerry Brown, not yet.

74. Any sane tentative list for 2020 has to have Senator Warren as a top contender.
I agree that 2020 might be too soon for Newsom, but who knows. People said the same thing about Obama in '08.

78. The difference is that Senator Obama was in office for 2 years before he started to run for president.
I think it would have been very difficult for him to run had he been elected in 2006.
I think a better analogy to Obama is Senator Kamala Harris. She was just elected. And she could very well run in 2020.
Star Member Warren DeMontague (76,738 posts)
79. Bottom line is we need to lead on marijuana legalization.
The numbers keep going up, and it's time for our party to embrace it at the national level.
I like Kamala Harris, too. I've watched her career since she was the DA in San Francisco.
DU Platform for 2020:
Make Drugs Legal Everywhere.
Open Borders.
No White People in Power (except our white people).
Star Member Warren DeMontague (76,738 posts)
76. It's time for our party to get out in front of the issue, that seems patently obvious to me.
Why we should cede it to the Libertarians or pretend it's a big joke.. I don't fathom it. For some reason people West of the Rockies get it. Even though legalization is trending like gangbusters on the East Coast too, East Coast pols still treat it like it's kryptonite, or a fringe issue.
Get out west you have Merkley, Blumenauer, as I said, Newsom, etc. They understand it's a major and important matter.

This is what nearly a half century of right wing hatred and lies have wrought.

27. I disagree. Even though I supported Bernie, I think
she was robbed by the Russians.
Hillary is very popular and I want to hear from her.
And I'm getting old. Do you think I should shut up, too?
Haha, never happen. Until I'm dead.
::)
Star Member Stinky The Clown (55,893 posts)
48. What a shitty thing to say.
3,000,000 MORE votes and a victim of armed robbery by a foreign power and their domestic stooge.

20. She is the Legitimate President. period.
Hope she can come on Maddow.

80. No. She's not.
She lost the EC, but won the popular.
If they had agreed on going by the popular vote, you would be right.
They had plenty of time to change the rules after Gore v Bush. They didn't.
They went into the election having agreed on the rules.
Now our reality is President Trump. It sucks, but it's true.
That's what we have to deal with and all the claims of legitimacy or not blind us to dealing with what is here now.
People cry about the Russians. I get it, but it still doesn't change what we have to deal with right now. And it's not going to get investigated with R's holding all the cards, so I'm not bothering anymore.
Let's try to mitigate the damage and move onward. Debating November '16 is a waste of energy.
Too much to do at a local level before I care about another POTUS election.
Look at it this way.
You and I agree to run a 150m race.
At 150m, you beat me.
I can't claim I won because I ran 200m and you didn't.

29. She looks lovely in that photo.
How different things would be if she was in the WH, instead of the lying orange clown.
Sigh...........
And, no doubt, soon on NBC a new show in the style of the West Wing with a fabulous woman (who cunningly is the best 'Clinton' look-alike available, fixing all the horrors of the world. We can call it "Madam President" ::)

I wonder if she spoke with an Irish accent?

If she came out of the woods, two quick questions:
1) Did she shave her legs?
2) Did she come out of the closet?

Am I the only one who threw up a little bit at that wording choice?

Coming out of the woods must be Hillsquatch-speak for reading up to her lesbo tendencies.

Given the context of this thread thus far, we should all be throwing up a little.

At first thought I thought Madcow might enjoy it.

:fuelfire: Will she come lecture us Deplorables? :fuelfire: :rotf: And bring her cackle and fake black accent? :rotf:
Fauxcahontas for President? Native Americans' Rachel Dolezal?
Major Nuisance for President? His married male aides better keep their wives 2 or 3 states away from him!
Kammy for President? Her first speech to a law enforcement crowd should be interesting ... if her speech could be heard.
Fixed a moody grammar error.

78. The difference is that Senator Obama was a clean and articulate Black. in office for 2 years before he started to run for president.
Fixed it.
Fixed it more.
