Elvis has left the building

"We'll will rise from the ashes like a phoenix"

That's actually what Bill Clinton said after he found out one of Hillary's Indiana campaign offices was burned to the ground today. Below is a video report of what happened.

So far, there is no indication that the fire was arson. The AP is reporting that two people were inside when the fire broke out, but that they escaped without injuries. Read below for comments from former President Bill Clinton.

Former President Clinton stopped briefly outside the burned building Friday on his way to a campaign speech in the small city of Clinton about 20 miles north of Terre Haute.

"Our young workers here are undeterred, and they're ready to roll so we'll get it going," he said.

Clinton laughed when asked whether the fire was a bad sign for his wife's campaign. "No, I think this is a good omen," he said. "We'll rise from the ashes like the Phoenix."

Now, that's quite an image. Let's see if it there's any truth to it.
