New grandma Hillary Clinton back on the trail

(CNN) - Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is headed to Florida Thursday to stump for gubnatorial candidate Charlie Crist.

This is one of her first political events since the birth of her granddaughter last week.

Even though she has yet to formally throw her hat into the 2016 ring, her upcoming schedule looks like that of presidential hopeful– packed with midterm election campaigning for Democratic candidates, from Illinois to Nevada. While most assume she will be the Democratic nominee, her name is still widely associated with “old Washington.”

Senior Politco writer Maggie Haberman joins The Lead to talk about the “Clinton brand,” and what hurdles Hillary Clinton make have to jump to make it to the White House.
