Let’s not get carried away, people. Remember HillaryCare?

Moderate compared to Obama is not moderate.

Yes Hillary! I hope she walks, hand in the resignaiton now,. He has been totally WEAK on Iran and Honduras he is not taking her advice, he is not keeping her in the loop.

It was great to get her out of the Senate so she didnt have to be stuck with the awful deficit surging spending binge from Hell the Dems are on, but since TOTUS is such an EPIC fail at foreign policy, and since nitwits like Susan Rice are in charge and it sems Jim Jones and Hillary are sidelined, I think she should resign.

We coulda had a contender..we got the selected not elected DEM candidate. We moderates wanted Hill. She was a moderate on the economy and as NY Senator knew the American economy is dependent upon the consumer on Main St AND Wall St capital. She would not have put us where we are, since the cabal of morons in DC selected TOTUS, I now hope Hill goes off to retire and sip Pina Coladas with Chelsea…

Co. signed.

I ♥ my Hillary. Since she pulled out of the Senate, her hands are clean of the circus that is the Congressional Dem Congress’ agenda of ‘09-?.

Reuters is reporting that Hilary Clinton won’t accompany Barack Obama to Moscow next week (via NRO’s Campaign Spot and Hot Air):…

Come on man, a little less political correctness would be super.

I mean, Come on person…

Come on man, a little less political correctness would be super.

That aside, there’s a chance Hillary might actually love America, like was stated earlier. She might just be appalled at what Obama is doing to the country she loves.

I know, it’s a long shot… but I can dream can’t I?

Question is, from your description, is she a Falcon? or a Buzzard?

Vulture.

Jim Geraghty points out an unusual item from Reuters yesterday, in which the State Department announced that Hillary Clinton would not accompany Barack Obama to Moscow next week. The nation’s chief diplomat will stay home while Obama pursues nucl…

Obama has astutely handled one thing in the last 6 months and that has been Mrs. Clinton. He won (as he said), she lost, he offered a job her ego couldn’t refuse (as jiangxidad stated –to keep herself relevant), she took it–and then he rendered her utterly powerless.

Like most of Obama’s official Cabinet, Hillary is there solely to act as a sacrificial lamb. He put her as SecState because he knew that would blow up in her face worse than any other position.

I think that stroke hurt Bill much worse than anyone let on. In his prime, he would have seen this coming before Obama did.

…But if Hillary is only NOW figuring this out, she’s not a threat to anyone. She’s too clueless even to be a clear and present danger to the Republic itself (and that’s saying a lot for any liberal), let alone a threat to Obama.

Mark my words–once Hillary has freedom of movement–she’ll be the biggest, loudest and firstest up to take swings at ol’ President Hopenchange.

That ship has sailed. The time for Hillary to attack Obama was during the Democrat Primary. The only reason he was put on that pedestal in the first place was because Bill knew it would be ridiculously easy to knock him off. I’m sure he told that to Hillary, but she didn’t have the guts or the timing to do the job then. So there’s no way in Hell she’ll be able to do it now, no matter how low his approval rating gets.

I’ve been saying for a while that Hillary will oppose Obama in 2012.

The problem with this analysis is twofold:
1) Obama’s own administration is largely a reconstituted Clinton administration. Obama/Clinton govt types are not going to jump ship if they run a very serious risk of ending up in the water. At best they become neutralized.

2) I believe Hill to be more strategic and more risk averse. You have to go back to Reagan/Ford to see a serious contender who could dethrone a sitting prez. There are very serious political risks associated with regicide.

The results of a bitter primary fight would split the dems and there would be a lot of pressure on Hill not to be a party to an internecine war. Although, appearing to be considering a run may not be a bad tactic because it creates chits which can be called later and increases her party stature as putting the party before her own interests. It might be construed as a base building exercise.

Rather, I think Hill will bide her time, establish her network, raise money and increase her profile on key issues.

“Special Advisor To the POTUS” has a glorified bureaucratic ring to it and comes with staff, plane, budget and cameras and microphones in tow.
