(CNN) On Tuesday, Hillary Clinton was asked whether she might -- still -- run for president in 2020. Here's part of how she responded:

"I, as I say, never, never, never say never, and I will certainly tell you I am under enormous pressure from many, many, many people to think about it, but as of this moment sitting here in this studio, that is absolutely not in my plans."

Which isn't a "no!" Or even close!

Yes, yes, yes. We have all been down this road many times before with Clinton and the 2020 race. She has never, really, appeared to be seriously considering the race but she also always seems to stick her foot in the door to keep it slightly ajar as others try to close it on her.
