Leaked Email: Hillary Officially Running

The Washington Examiner spots it:

It is finally official: Hillary Clinton is running for president.

An email from Clinton campaign chair John Podesta to donors said that the former secretary of state and first lady is officially running and that she is on her way to Iowa to speak with voters.

“There will be a formal kickoff next month,” wrote the email leaked on Twitter.

The Associated Press also announced her candidacy.

Obviously, we on the right must treat her with the same level of respect that the left treated John McCain in 2008 and Mitt Romney in 2012. In other words, cry havoc and unleash the full blast of Alinksy-style mockery, Photoshops — and street art:
