This Afternoon John Kerry Didnt Seemed Really Excited re. HRC Announcement

And apparetly not so is NYC Mayor Bill DeBlasio.

As SoS Kerr keeps the tradition to stay neutral. However although he politely praised HRC work as hus predecessor... he was very happy to not have to enter the fray ( and so to endorse ? ... Given the Clintons backstabbed him in the past... it would be more than understandable.)

On DeBlasio well he appeard to disapprove the inevitability meme and seeks for more progressive platform.
