CNN’s John King: Hillary Has Already ‘Reintroduced Herself So Many Times’

‘She ran an almost smug, arrogant campaign in 2007’

WILSON: "And it would seem, John King, it really is made for the younger electorate, in large part, who is relying on information via cell phone, Twitter, YouTube, et cetera."
KING: " I've covered her for more than 25 years. She has been reintroduced so many different times, reintroduced herself so many different times from first lady of Arkansas, first lady of the United States, running for the United States Senate, then a United State senator, than a president candidate, a failed presidential candidate, secretary of state. She is trying to reintroduce herself again. And part of it what she's trying to say is, I get it. I'm not saying it's my turn, I'm in it to win it. I'm saying this about you. And that was the point that Brian made and Jeff was making earlier talking about the middle class families who need somebody in Washington to fight for them. She's saying, I'll be your vehicle. I'm not saying I'm entitled. And that's a key point because she did run -- my words -- but she run an arrogant almost a smug campaign in 2007 at the beginning, until suddenly when they realized this Obama guy who they didn't think was a threat, was a real threat. By the time they figured it out, it was too late. So she needs to be different this time but she also is who she is. Let's be candid, she can't reinvent herself. She is 56 years old. She is who she is. She has certain ways, but she also is a very smart women and the question is what lessons has she learned and we are about to find that out."
