Hillary Clinton plunged back into the political waters Friday by pledging to work to get all the female Democratic candidates on the ballot elected in November.

I cant think of a better way to make the House work again than electing every woman on the ballot, Clinton told the Democratic Womens Leadership Forum, a group she helped start more than 20 years ago with former Second Lady Tipper Gore. There are 10 women running for the Senate, six women running for governor and I wish I could vote for all of them.

Clinton called out several candidates by name: Senate challengers Michelle Nunn in Georgia, Alison Lundergan Grimes in Kentucky and West Virginias Natalie Tennant, incumbent Sens. Kay Hagan in North Carolina and Jeanne Shaheen in New Hampshire, and House candidate Staci Appel in Iowa.

The former Secretary of State particularly tout former Trek Bicycle executive Mary Burke, who is challenging Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker. Burke she is offering a choice between more angry gridlock, Clinton said, and smart progressive policies.

Clinton said she wanted to see a movement of women rise up to take back the government. Were in the home stretch and it all comes down on who shows up to vote, she told the crowd of female Democratic organizers, many of whom will be relied on to turn out female voters in November. This country will maintain a level playing field so whether youre the grandchild of a president, or the grandchild of a janitor, whether you were born in a city or a small rural village, no matter who you are you have the right to inherit the American dream.
