Six months after resigning as secretary of state, a post that precluded her from participating in political campaigns and commenting directly on domestic issues with partisan implications, Hillary Clinton is set to re-enter the world of politics per Politico via Maggie Haberman. Those itching for her to make a declaration one way or another will have to wait, however. She is only dipping her toes in by backing a long time pal. Hillary will be easing into her political reset by hosting a fund raiser for Clinton buddy Terry McAuliffe at her Washington DC home. McAuliffe is running for governor in Virginia.
Hillary Clinton to host Terry McAuliffe fundraiser
Hillary Clinton will host a fundraiser for Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe, a longtime Clinton family friend, at her home in Washington next month, POLITICO has learned.
The Sept. 30 event marks the former secretary of state’s first political event since leaving Foggy Bottom earlier this year, sources said.
It will be good to see her making speeches and campaigning. She brings a perspective grounded in knowledge, as well as the intellectual capacity to succinctly, yet passionately get down to the heart of the issues. Hillary can see both the forest and the trees, maintaining focus on the broader goal, but never undervaluing the impact of the smallest details – wherein either god or the devil (depending personal usage preference) resides, as the saying goes.
And, the energy she can bring to a campaign or a cause is unequaled.
Terry has been a good friend to her. I’m glad she’ll be in his corner.

I’m glad that she’s campaigning for Terry. Cuccinelli as governor would be a bad thing for VA.

Cuccinelli is toxic!
