In a high-rise office in Rosslyn, Va., Adam Parkhomenko is selling campaign paraphernalia for a campaign that may or may not happen.

"Bumper stickers, magnets, and then we have everything from T-shirts, we have baby onesies that we're almost out of now," says Parkhomenko.

Parkhomenko runs a group called Ready for Hillary. It's more than a Clinton fan club: It's a superPAC, a list-building superPAC.

The next presidential election is more than two years away. Nevertheless, an unprecedented amount of infrastructure is under construction for a Hillary Clinton campaign that is still a matter of speculation.

"Ready for Hillary is focused on the grass-roots piece of organizing, and making sure that all throughout the country, if she does this, that there's an army of grass-roots supporters behind her from Day 1 that are ready to go," Parkhomenko says.

This kind of bottom-up grass-roots organizing was not a strong suit for Clinton's 2008 campaign. But the shadow campaign developing in advance of a possible 2016 sequel is focusing on the ground level. Ready for Hillary raises small donations by selling baby onesies and holding small-dollar fundraisers.

Last week in Boston, around 100 young professionals paid $20.16 2016, get it? to attend a Ready for Hillary event. Far more important than the minimal money raised were the data collected tools for future targeting and organizing.

Harold Ickes, an old Clinton consigliere, is an adviser to the superPAC.

"Ready for Hillary started a year ago almost to the day, has raised over $4 million mostly small donors ... and has over 2 million names of people who have signed up that want to stay in touch," Ickes says. "We have their email addresses, and their Twitter handles and the hashtags and all that that goes along with it. It's quite amazing."

Ready for Hillary is an important piece of the campaign-in-waiting but only one piece, says Ickes.

Because what Hillary Clinton really needs is a running mate who resigned in disgrace over an affair with a much younger woman, a.k.a. a constant reminder of the darkest time in her public and private life. If that sounds like the dream scenario of a desperate neocon who would like to drudge up that ugliness over and over again in columns for months come election time, that's because it is!

Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol credits his "savvy friend" with the prediction in a bizarre parenthetical in his weekly email newsletter that promises "timely observations and reflections."

Earlier in the note, Kristol writes, "Every poll shows the American public, by about two to one, thinks the nation is on the wrong track. Thats the track of contemporary liberalism. Its the track Hillary Clinton has diligently chugged along for her entire adult life. As president, shed be a dutiful chaperone of further American decline. The American people deserve better."

I know populism has a problematic history and remains something of a mixed bag, and a few friends and allies have expressed surprise to me in recent months at the kinds words I've had for populism, at least populism rightly understood. But then you read an article like this in the New York Times, and you think about how to frame a 2016 race against Hillary Clinton (by the way, a savvy friend is absolutely convinced her running mate in 2016 will be David Petraeussomething worth thinking about, perhaps). And I think you've got to conclude that the way to defeat "the first woman president" (but also an elitist and dynastic one) is with a candidate from Middle America who speaks for Middle America in ways understandable to Middle America.
