“If she runs in the primary, she’s the frontrunner. Obviously the vice president is someone who will take a look at this. We have other governors and senators who will take a look at it. But I think, you know if she were to run, she would be an enormously strong candidate in the primary,” Plouffe said.
When asked if he’d manage a potential Clinton 2016 campaign for president, Plouffe said “those days are over.”
“I am done running presidential campaigns,” Plouffe said. “So — But I’ll give her whatever advice she would seek.”
