*I'm* of the opinion she will not run but Emmanuel has no idea what she will do and given the position he has it would be incredibly inappropriate for him to say anything when he doesn't know what she will do.
People would assume his answer was based on inside information he doesn't have. You're even trying to read something in to him not answering, imagine your false certainty that he must know something if he did answer.
Again, this is a stupid thread.
Look at the thread title. Look up the word should. As in. They were not asking him to read her mind. They were asking him if HE thought she should. As in does she deserve another kick at the can.
The context being he is a senior Democrat and they are fishing to see how they feel about Clinton losing now that the dust has settled. And probably so when the whole Russia story fades they have something new to call Breaking News.
And his answer was telling. There are several Senior Democrats who are pissed at her loss and place the blame on her. Only they can't say that publicly yet.
So it isn't a stupid thread because it's speculation on what direction the Party will be going in the future and how they are transitioning to new leadership.
Every scrap helps in trying to gage intentions.
