Schoen, who worked on Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign and is now a Fox News contributor, said he expects Clinton to run, but that she will face challenges having served in Obama’s administration as secretary of State.
“The real question is how does she separate herself from Obama, yet not get so far away from him that she alienates his base constituency?” he said.
Schoen said recent polls suggest 2016 is shaping up to be a tough fight.
