Hillary will re-launch her campaign tomorrow from Welfare Island.
Her first announcement was such a failure even the main-stream media panned it.

She is still in hiding from the media and when pressed by left-winger if she supports Obama’s TPA plan, her handlers did the usual “The Candidate will articulate her position at the appropriate time” (meaning after today’s vote).
Obama is on Capitol Hill today begging his party member’s to support TPA but it seen the Democrats are more interested in Union money than their president’s policy.

If you really want to have some fun, list the items important to you from a government and presidential level and listen for Hillary addresses any of your concerns in tomorrow's speech.

I'd like to know where she stands on internet chat room trolls. Doubt she'll touch on that though.

Actually, I don't really where she stands because I've already made my choice...

I am guessing she pretty much ignores them, like we all should do, as it is a waste of time and energy to try to engage them in intelligent conversation. Grin

Hil wouldn't have any use for our little chat room. There's no DELETE button.

All the liberals here seem to be for Hillary but are unable to articulate why.
Yet the low information voters must post irrelevant comments!

Willie Nelson would know better.
It is Willie Wilson, Businessman and 2015 Chicago mayoral candidate from Illinois

Liz Warren eh?
Maybe she'll try again. Her "Run Liz Run" PAC bagged it a couple of weeks ago.

The most amazing thing about Hillary Clinton is that she thinks she can become president without actually speaking to anyone or answering any questions or saying anything about the years she spent in high office. It's also amazing the degree to which she thinks she can simply say whatever she wants and she will be believed or at least no one will care if she is lying. As an optimist I refuse to believe that someone like this can and will be elected president of the United States. If she is elected with this degree of cynicism that will probably wrap it up for us as a great nation.

Oh please. Overreacting much? Your complaining that she hasn't talked to the media yet, while many candidates haven't even declared yet. It's not like she is some unknown newcomer onto the scene.

Now that is funny.

All Republican candidates, declared and undeclared have answered hundreds of media questions and sat for interviews from main stream media of all sorts.

Hillary will not answer any questions. Of the few interviews she has granted the interviewer and the organization were hand selected by Hillary and her campaign and the interviewer’s must pre-submit a list of the questions they want to ask and then Hillary’s handlers edit off that list the things they don’t want to talk about.
Of course with her decade’s long history of corruption and have an empty resume that might not be such a bad idea.

Hillary and her campaign require their approval of every media person at her “appearances” and have issued a list of words the media may not use when writing/reporting about her. The N.Y. Times was none too pleased but agreed anyway.
Understandable for the N.Y. Times though. In her 2008 campaign she did get their endorsement after The Clinton Foundation made a $100,000 “contribution’ to the paper.

Complete, not to mention comical, overreaction. We are still 18 months from the election. All the questions will be asked and answered. There will be town hall meetings, pressers, debates, all that stuff. She's running the basic front runner strategy playbook at this point.

Exactly she has no competition for the nomination and is leading the POTUS polls so it is smart campaign strategy to lay low right now. Let the GOP candidates tear each other apart and make fools of them selves.

When the time is right she will come out swinging.

It's ALWAYS a good idea to keep Hillary away from microphones. Very little upside and a very steep downside.

“overreaction.”?
Not according to the press. They are now collectively pissed.

Hillary and her campaign are getting serious blowback from The N.Y. Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, Politico and many other main stream media outlets for denial of access, media control and staging “press events” with only hand-picked journalists but taking no questions. Press “instructions” at her recent campaign event at TCU included “There will be media questions. Mrs. Clinton’s speech will be the interview”.

It really hit the fan today. Look up The Daily Mail’s U.S. Politics reporter David Martosko’s experience.

Hillary Clinton’s team takes another hit on media briefings
By Erik Wemple May 29

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/erik-wemple/wp/2015/05/29/hillary-clintons-team-takes-another-hit-on-media-briefings/

As recounted here, the Telegraph of Nashua, N.H., last week published an editorial blasting the worthlessness of a Clinton campaign conference call. A taste:

Clinton operatives held a conference call about efforts the campaign is making to bulk up a social media outreach campaign and plans to build working groups that are – get this – based on specific issues rather than the traditional county-by-county breakdown.

We’ll give you a moment to recover from the impact of such revelatory news.

To keep this style of Clinton coverage going, CNBC Chief Washington Correspondent John Harwood has turned in a piece titled, “How’s Hillary doing? Wish we could tell you.”

I’ve been inside Hillary Clinton’s national campaign headquarters in Brooklyn. I’ve talked with “senior officials” about her bid for the White House. They sat in these chairs. Wish I could tell you more. But they said very little. Notice that I typed very little and not “very little,” because under the ground rules of Thursday’s briefing reporters were not allowed to quote their words directly. You’re not missing much.

Campaign aides dished out information in broad categories, as Harwood explained: “Her husband, Bill, and daughter, Chelsea, will play roles in her campaign. Can’t say exactly what, or when,” wrote Harwood of the aides’ limited disclosures.

Compare that treatment with a far less sneering version in Time magazine, which also attended a recent briefing at Clinton HQ:

Hillary Clinton will gradually ramp up her campaign throughout the summer, but it will be months before she turns completely to a more orthodox model replete with a packed public schedule of billboard events and the regular appearance of husband Bill and daughter Chelsea, top Clinton campaign officials said on Thursday.

A write-up in the New York Times played it straight in some parts …

The opening phase of Hillary Rodham Clinton’s presidential campaign, with its sporadic and somewhat sheltered schedule of small round-table discussions, is coming to a close, her aides said Thursday.

Beginning with a June 13 rally where she plans to lay out a more detailed rationale for her candidacy, Mrs. Clinton is expected to begin detailing policy proposals, interacting with larger groups of voters at town hall settings and speaking to even bigger crowds of Democrats, mainly in the early nominating states of Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada, the aides said.

… and also ripped the campaign aides: “And they provided little else in the way of candor, other than to acknowledge that Mrs. Clinton, who performs better when she is not overscheduled, would still have a long way to go to ramp up to a full-blown general election-style pace.”

Media organizations are at the wrong end of a power dynamic vis-a-vis the Clinton campaign: They number in the hundreds — thousands, perhaps — and they’re all vying for whatever meal scraps they can scrounge up. There aren’t too many levers that reporters can pull to change that imbalance. Publicly chiding the campaign’s briefings is one of them, however.
