Hillary Clinton is ready to run on President Obamas record when it comes to the economy.

Clinton allies say that if the former secretary of Statedoes in fact announce a second bid for the presidency this year,they expect thatshell tether herself to a main slice of Obamas legacy.

But even as Clinton embraces Obamas economic record,they expect her totelegraphthat more needs to be done to help the middle class, a message Obama will highlight in his State of the Union address later this month.

They also predict that Clintonwillpresent policies distinct from those of the Obama administration she served, andevenher own husbands administration, which is regularly credited with presiding over years of strong economic growth.

This tack, allies say,will allow her to to carve out her own identity andprovide her with the opportunity to speak about education, making housing more affordable and helping younger Americans find jobs and build her own narrative.

She'll be running armed with the currentinformation and with programs and plans and polices that she wants to support, said Ellen Tauscher, the former congresswoman who serves as undersecretary for Arms Control and International Security Affairs at the State Department under Clinton.

Democratic strategist Jim Manley said that he expects Clinton to keep pretty close to the administrations basic economic policies. But, he added, I wouldnt be surprised if she found ways to exploit the growing debate on economic equality.

One longtime Clinton ally agrees with that sentiment. This source said Clinton would argue for a Main Street platform that combines certain kinds of tax reform, trade agreements and investment strategies, perhaps fashioned around overarching goals.

This is an approach that a Republican candidate could choose to take too; what will matter is who does it best, the ally said.

Republicansfrom the RNC to the superPAC AmericaRising--are already working to portray Clinton as a third term for Obama.

Bill Clinton's name being recently linked to registered sex offender Jeffrey Epstein has greatly upset his wife, according to a report published Thursday.

An unnamed source toldPage Six'Talk in Washington is that Hillary is furious with Bill about all this new information on Jeffrey Epstein.'

Court documents from 2011 describe Clinton's connection to Epstein, the news outlet reported. Epstein was convicted in 2008 for soliciting prostitution from a minor.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is incensed that her husband, former President Bill Clinton, has been tied to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, whos also at the heart of an investigation into Prince Andrews alleged sexual dalliances with a minor, the New York Post reported.

The sources told the Post they witnessed at the funeral of Mario Cuomo an obviously upset Mrs. Clinton storm past her husband, who waited for her at the door of St. Ignatius Loyola Church.

Talk in Washington is that Hillary is furious with Bill about all this new information on Jeffrey Epstein, the source told the newspaper.

Court documents related to a suit filed by Virginia Roberts, who alleges Mr. Epstein paid her $15,000 to have sex with the prince, also included several references to Mr. Clinton. The documents from 2011 show that Mr. Epstein had 21 different email and telephone numbers for Mr. Clinton and an aide in his directory.

The court documents also show Mr. Clinton frequently flew with Mr. Epstein on his private plane between 2002 and 2005. The court documents say that Mr. Clinton suddenly stopped, raising the suspicion that the friendship abruptly ended, perhaps because of events related to Epsteins sexual abuse of children, the Post reported.

Mrs. Clinton, widely considered the front-runner for the 2016 Democratic presidential bid, is reportedly outraged that her husbands name has again popped up in a sex scandal.

Sources told the Post that Mr. Clinton was waiting by the front door for a long time at Cuomos ceremony.

People assumed he was waiting for Matilda Cuomo. But then Hillary came storming in right past him, and she didnt look happy with him at all, one source told the Post.

Mrs. Clintons spokesperson denied the former secretary of state was upset, calling the talk utter nonsense, the Post reported.

The prince, meanwhile, and Buckingham Palace officials have denied any allegations of underage sexual escapades and have counter-sued Ms. Roberts. Epstein, who is a registered sex offender, spent more than a year in prison for soliciting a minor-age girl for prostitution about five years ago.

While on the HBO show Real Time with Bill Maher, Jay Leno said Hillary Clinton seems very slow" and appears to be older than Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren despite their 18-month age difference.

I dont see the fire, he said of the likely Democratic presidential contender in a clip of the show on The Daily Caller. Her and Elizabeth Warren are almost the same age and I see Elizabeth Warren come out throwing punches boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, he said with his fist up jabbing the air.

And I like her, but she seems sort of, she seems very slow and very ... I dont see that fire that I used to see that I see in Elizabeth Warren, he said.

He went onto to say that people think Warren is much younger than Clinton.

Because I say to people, how much younger is Elizabeth Warren than Hillary? And people go, oh, 15 years. No! 18 months.
