Hillary: Chances of me challenging Obama are “below zero”

Aw, what a shame. Looks more and more like Democrats are indeed going to be stuck with Obama at the top of the ticket next November.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton says she has so little interest in challenging President Obama in the next election that the chances of her putting up another primary fight are “below zero.”

Asked by CNN on Friday what the likelihood is that she would challenge Obama in a primary, she laughed.

“Oh, yeah. It’s below zero,” Clinton said.

Responding to former Vice President Dick Cheney’s recent comment that Clinton would have made a better president than Obama, she responded that as secretary of state, she is “out of politics,” and she said she’s “not interested in being drawn back into it by anybody.”

“I think I’m going to stay focused on doing what I can to make sure that we continue to lead the world,” she said.
