For Clinton Democrats, the end of the pre-campaign comes with concerns

"(Hillary Clinton's) inevitability is not a message, it is not something you can run on," said a longtime supporter.

STORY HIGHLIGHTS

New York (CNN) -- The stated purpose for a meeting of pro-Hillary Clinton Democrats in New York on Friday was simple: Recap the last year and discuss 2014 lessons that will apply in 2016's presidential election.

The much-talked about and more interesting purpose, however, was the realization that the pre-campaign that has existed around a likely Clinton candidacy for the better part of two years is soon coming to an end.

In the hallway, ballroom and press briefing room of the Ready for Hillary National Finance Council meeting, dozens of top flight Democrats, many of whom would make up the roster of a Clinton campaign, came together to discuss the future of what appears to be a likely run.

"They are pretty certain," Stephanie Schriock, the president of Emily's List and a possible Clinton campaign manager in 2016, said when asked whether session attendees thought Clinton would run.

Though many of the speakers at the strategy session regularly inserted caveats like "if she runs" or "hypothetically" into conversations with the press, the feeling of nearly everyone in the room was that Clinton is almost certainly running for president and will likely declare early in 2016.

"You can derive that by looking at what she has been doing," said Chris Lehane, the political director of Bill Clinton's 1992 campaign and a longtime Hillary Clinton adviser. "I think she has been doing everything you would do if you were going to give a serious look to running."

Lehane added that the reason many of the Democrats were in a New York City ballroom on Friday was because of those movements by Clinton, who for the last year has headlined high profile speeches, stumped for Democrats across the country and written a much ballyhooed book.

"A lot of people are taking their signals from that," the California-based political consultant said. "That is one of the reasons this gathering is taking place."

Democrats bet on diversity

With Barack Obamas sweeping move to reorder the nations immigration system through the stroke of the presidential pen, Democrats say the White House is making a dramatic and likely irreversible bet that the ultra-diverse Obama coalition will sustain the party through 2016 and beyond.

For months, the premier political question haunting Democrats aside from Hillary Clintons yes-or-no decision on 2016 has been whether Obamas unprecedented support from young people, women and nonwhite voters will roll over into a new campaign, with a new candidate at the top of the ticket.

After this week, senior Democrats say, it had better.

The presidents decision to use his executive powers to protect some 5 million undocumented immigrants from deportation is bound to draw a backlash from middle-of-the-road white voters. Republicans assailed Obamas handling of immigration in the midterm elections, catering to a conservative and notably less diverse electorate with ads in states such as Arkansas and New Hampshire. Early polling shows significant suspicion of Obamas unilateral action: An NBC/Wall Street Journal poll found 48 percent of Americans pre-emptively opposed to the executive actions, versus 38 percent ready to endorse them.

As a political matter, then, the presidents wager is this: that the voters with the longest memories will be those in the rapidly growing, next-generation national electorate, heavily inflected by socially progressive young people and a growing Latino population.

For all the predictable blowback Democrats will face across the South and even in areas of the Rust Belt, strategists hope the party will be rewarded handsomely in states that have swung rapidly toward their party in national elections thanks to accelerating demographic change. That may be small consolation to red-state senators like North Dakotas Heidi Heitkamp or West Virginias Joe Manchin, who may have to defend the policy when they run for reelection in a few years.

But Clinton, the most formidable Democratic figure on the political horizon, channeled the enthusiasm of most party leaders in a statement Thursday night endorsing Obamas decision to begin fixing our broken immigration system and blaming Republicans for the failure to pass comprehensive reform.
