I voted "no" after reading a couple of articles. I think she is too ill to run. As POTUS, she would have had a massive staff to hide behind and her incompetence would not have been as noticeable, but as mayor, she would be front and center and most likely both figuratively and literally fall on her face. I suspect her mental health, what was left of it, has suffered a great deal since her loss.

Dog catcher? She didn't do that good of job of keeping up with Bill!

Hillary is damaged goods who couldn't beat Obama in their primary, had to cheat to beat Bernie in 2016, and then couldn't beat one of the worst candidates we have ever seen.

Hillary was the worst candidate by your own description above. She self-destructed and Trump just had to pick up the pieces and run with it. Hillary was everything bad for our country, a pretty easy slamdunk.

I said Trump was ONE of the worst because I consider Hillary one of the other worst. Unfortunately one of them had to win, doesn't make one much better than the other.

Get ready to run for POTUS in 2020? Get a high paying job so she can pay back all of those donations she took on her pre-pay to play that she can't deliver on? Try to keep up with Bill and his "little blue pills"?

Hillary Clinton can barely stand on her own half the time, so I don't see her "running" for anything. She would not be running against Trump, so how she did in the General Election would not be in play. It is always fun to say that "IF", but often that isn't the reality. "IF" she doesn't run, both herself and what is left of her supporters can always say she would have won, "IF" she runs they'll all know the truth. Hillary Clinton is finished having destroyed herself.

New York City is a hotbed of Liberals. They love Hillary and She has massive support there and would win in a landslide if she ran. She got more votes in NYC then trump

Hillary Clinton possibly mulling a run for NYC mayor: source - NY Daily News

Of course she'd win. They love her and would be fine with whatever level of corruption she gave them.

I dunno what her plans are. The OP's article mentioned a possible talk show of some kind. I still think working on developing and implementing new programs for the Clinton Foundation is most likely, but she hardly consults me, so it's speculation on my part.

I actually don't care, at this point, whether she runs or not. Up to her. If/when she does, I'll make up my mind about it then.

And you must not have looked at the OP's article. She looks GREAT, well-rested and smiling. She has great resilience. And is a long way from being "destroyed".
