"Hillary was aware, too, that the notion of her running was gaining traction within Clintonworld. For weeks that
summer, Steve Ricchetti, who had served as Bill’s deputy White House chief of staff and remained one of his closest
political hands, could be heard arguing to anyone in earshot that Hillary faced a Bobby Kennedy moment—in which a terrible war, a torn electorate, and a president who had squandered his chance to unify the nation presented a
historic opportunity."
