As Secretary of State Hillary Clinton makes her exit from Foggy Bottom, there's a super PAC already waiting in the wings to support her in a potential 2016 presidential run.I know Hillary Clinton has skin fully one million inches thick, and there is virtually nothing under the sun in politics that could get to her anymore. But she is also human. And what I hope is that the country she has lovingly and loyally served having told her to get out of the way for Obama and go the fuck home, only to tell her now, four years later, that she can't go home because it's time to serve some more at our demand, is something that makes her laugh, even if mirthlessly. What I hope is that it doesn't bother her, because it sure as fuck bothers me.
While the group, "Ready for Hillary," won't go live with its website for another two or three weeks, its founders filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission on Friday.
"We want to be ready to help Hillary when Hillary is ready to run," explained Allida Black, the group's chair.
...For Black, she said she believes "public service is in (Clinton's) DNA" and it would be "biologically impossible" for her to say no.
But if she decides to pass on a second presidential bid, Black said she'll continue to support Clinton in whatever she does.
"I'll be bitterly disappointed, but I trust her judgment," Black said.
