Hillary Clinton watching the World Series is every Cubs fan
Last night's Chicago Cubs World Series victory in an epic Game 7 thrilled Cubs fans around the world, including one of the team's most high-profile supporters, Hillary Clinton, who agonized and celebrated like everyone else.
Clinton, an Illinois native and long-time Cubs fan, kept tabs on the game, watching on an iPad and laptop after she wrapped up a rally at Arizona State University late Wednesday evening.
And just like everyone else, Clinton went through the roller coaster of emotions as the Cubs got ahead, blew a lead, and then clawed their way back in front in extra innings to secure their first World Series championship in 108 years.
