USA Today:Ready For Hillary is really ready.
The group supporting a potential presidential run by Hillary Rodham Clinton is ready to fold up shop and hand over its list of supporters to the Clinton campaign if only Clinton will give the word.
The group, founded in 2013, uses low-dollar fundraisers, e-mail, direct mail and a "Hillary Bus" driving around the country to build a list of supporters for a Clinton candidacy. It has raised $10 million, most of which went to online advertising, and amassed contact information from 3 million people.
"When she makes the decision or announces the decision, we begin to shut down; 98% of our operations will shut down very quickly,'' the group's founder, Adam Parkhomenko, said Friday.

Either there's a incredibly large number of Third Way members, or Hillary Clinton has wider appeal than some people are willing to acknowledge.

But I do hope there's some major changes between now and 2016 that gives a candidate I can get excited about a chance.
My attitude is: "Hillary'll do."

(18,115 posts)6. And Hillary is ready to register her peak in support.
She will get a boost when she finally rolls out Hillary for president 2.0, new, improved and re-inevitable. And immediately begin her long slow loss of support.
