Hillary Clinton plots her next move

Remember those 'Hillary 2020' rumors?  Maybe they weren't totally unfounded.

Hillary Clinton plots her next move

The Democrat has been studying election presentations, including reports on where she underperformed.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — In a series of private meetings and phone calls at their home in Chappaqua, in New York City and in Washington, Bill and Hillary Clinton are slowly starting to puzzle through their political future, according to over a dozen people who have spoken directly with them, and nearly two dozen other Democrats who have been briefed on their thinking.

The recently vanquished candidate has told some associates she’s looking at a spring timeline for mapping out some of her next political steps. Still recovering from her stunning loss, a political return is far from the top of Clinton’s mind, with much of her planning focused around the kinds of projects she wants to take on outside the partisan arena, like writing or pushing specific policy initiatives.

Just as the Democratic Party feels its way through a landscape without either Clinton looming over its future for the first time in nearly a quarter century, Clinton herself is working through the uncertainty surrounding how to best return to the fold.

There have been no conversations about starting her own political group but Clinton has spoken with leaders of emerging Democratic-leaning organizations about their work, and has discussed possible opportunities to work with Organizing For Action, former President Barack Obama’s initiative. Among the potential political priorities she has mentioned to associates are building pipelines for young party leaders to rise and ensuring that a reconstructed Democratic National Committee functions as an effective hub that works seamlessly with other party campaign wings.

The one-time secretary of state has been in contact with a range of ex-aides, studying presentations as she tries to better understand the forces behind her shocking November defeat.

Well, one of those 'forces'--probably the main one--is that she was a horrible candidate.

There will be no Hillary 2020. If there was even a chance of it, the Clinton Family Slush Fund would have been kept open. As the situation is now, in order for them to launder the donations before they get funneled into HRC's pockets, they'd have to reopen the "charity".

If I recall, all her big $$ donor$ were bigly pissed at her last November when she lost.  I don't see them ponying up any more money for a future bid.
