Hillary: 'Hello Iowa--I'm Back!'

[Purveyor]

INDIANOLA, Iowa -- Hillary Clinton fanned the 2016 flames on Sunday, making her first return to the early caucus state since her 2008 presidential loss.

As the former secretary of State took the stage at retiring Sen. Tom Harkin's (D-Iowa) final steak fry, she told the crowd: "Hello Iowa-- I'm ba-ack!"

Even though she was there to pay homage to the retiring Democrat and stump for the party's candidates in the competitive state, Clinton cheekily acknowledged that another White House bid wasn't far from her mind.

"And then of course there's that other thing," she told a crowd that had chanted "ready, ready" as she took the stage.

"Well, it is true I am thinking about it. But for today that is not why I'm here. I'm here for the steak," Clinton laughed.

1. Good.

The loonies on the right are already running around like crazy trying to figure out how to deal with this.

2. She is trying get a Democrat elected where one is retiring, a good move.

I expect to see more of the Clintons in the next few months stumping for Democrats.

3. That means it was nearly seven years ago when I wrote

Unless (Hillary) wins decisively in Iowa, she'll lose her leverage, and she knows it.

Except that I was wrong about her knowing it.
