In the very local news, Bill and Hillary Clinton, who remained mute on the mayoral primaries in New York City due to their friends on both sides of the aisle who were involved, have finally broken their collective silence with an endorsement that comes as no surprise whatsoever.
Clintons back de Blasio
The Clintons, as expected, endorsed Bill de Blasio for New York City mayor.
De Blasio is a former aide in the Clinton Administration and he was the campaign manager for Hillary Clinton’s Senate run in 2000.
“Bill de Blasio has been a friend to both President Clinton and Secretary Clinton for many years,” their offices said in a joint statement. “They were proud to see him run a thoughtful, creative campaign about the issues, and they are behind him as he moves on to the general election as the Democratic nominee.”
In other local news Clinton Vineyards in the Hudson Valley is introducing a new wine.
Hillary Clinton Wine!
First came the Hollywood movies. Now a New York vineyard, coincidentally named Clinton Vineyards, is taking Hillary Clinton’s-as-of-yet nonexistent presidential bid to a new level: Victory wine!
I stopped drinking years ago except for rare occasions. I will have to make an exception and have this bottle on hand should a special celebration be called for. I have to look up the price… this bush and bo economy is rough. Bring back those Clinton economy years with another Clinton.
Her CGI crew is top notch. Surely she had so many volunteers that she had to turn people away to other parts of the organization. She is so motivational and inspiring. She will be awesome at CGI or wherever she is planted.

I lived in NYC for 47 years, mostly in Queens but had relatives all over the boroughs. De Blasio appeals to the working person, the blue collar joe and jane. This is the base of both Clintons as well so it is no wonder she chose him to be her campaign manager. They do what they do for the middle class and they know where the backbone and heartbeat of this country is. My friends in NY are volunteering for his campaign and are excited.

Y’know, if you wanted to have a regional Fans of Hill meetup, this would be the time and place…
