NY Post Reports Hillary Is In The Race
The New York Post is reporting that Andrew Cuomo told them that Hillary openly declared herself to be in the race for the 2008 presidential nomination.
WASHINGTON - Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton yesterday answered the question on everyone's mind - telling one New York lawmaker flat out: "I'm really going to go for this."
Clinton dropped the much-anticipated presidential bombshell during a blitz of phone calls to home-state lawmakers, as well as a top moneyman, Attorney General-elect Andrew Cuomo, and the Rev. Al Sharpton.
"She said to me, 'I'm really going to go for this. I'm going to make this effort,' " the New York lawmaker told The Post.
"She never said she was running for the presidency of the United States or if she was going to announce - or anything like that," the lawmaker said, quickly adding, "It wasn't a question that needed to be asked. It was an obvious conversation."
Not exactly unexpected given the flurry of activity lately.
