Weekly Standard
Spokesman: Hillary still intends to leave after first term
“The Secretary has been honored to serve as President Obama’s Secretary of State, and has loved every minute of leading this Department and being part of the State family,” a Clintons spokesman says in an email. “But yes, you can confirm yet again that she’s been clear about her intention to leave after the first term.”
When asked for clarification on what date Clinton would stepdown, the spokesman, Philippe Reines, says, “She has said that she wants to ensure continuity, and realizes the confirmation of her successor might take a period of days beyond that.”

By the time 2016 Hillary will look like Helen Thomas. Or is this time to escape and spend $1 million on plastic surgery? Raise the Titanic!

What? Nobody wants to be in the Administration during the Impeachment proceedings?

Worst thing for Hillary’s chances was an Obama victory. Nevertheless, her and Bill are plotting for 2016.

You read my mind and beat me to it!
It’s possible that plastic surgery, body wraps and liposuction could make her look twenty years younger, but nothing can change the spiritual rot.
It’s too awful to contemplate another four years of BO much less a resurrection of the Clintons.
It O’Care doesn’t end my life more of the Clintons will do it.

I was thinking that myself. (Cue audio from Hindenberg crash)

Oh, and we’ve loved having her useless fat a$$ there!

Well she’s not going to shack up with Billy Jeff so maybe she is eloping with her ‘aide’ Huma.They make a beautiful couple.

God I hope so. If Brown doesn’t want it, Richard Tisei would be an obvious choice.
vegconservative on November 8, 2012 at 4:14 PM
Well…..bye.
SailorMark on November 8, 2012 at 4:15 PM
