“I would like to see whether I can get untired”
So the question is, what hand does she choose next?
As everyone knows, Clinton’s remaining time in the cabinet is limited. She long ago told President Obama that she wanted to leave after his first term was up. “Obviously, if he wants to get somebody confirmed I’d be sensitive to that. But it’s not going to be much longer.”
Then she is going to chill. While there are many topics on which Hillary Clinton speaks with great passion, at this moment there are very few about which she is as intense as her desire to not do anything.
“I am so looking forward to next year,” she said. “I just want to sleep and exercise and travel for fun. And relax. It sounds so ordinary, but I haven’t done it for 20 years. I would like to see whether I can get untired. I work out and stuff, but I don’t do it enough and I don’t do it hard enough because I can’t expend that much energy on it.”

Gail Collins is the reason why we have so many gay men running around now.

Fluff piece.
Pay attention. Our job from now on is to keep Obama from being the next President.
Michelle Obama.
Pay attention.

Ugh, just think of all the fawning that will come pouring out when she leaves.

No one gets to choose the hand they’re dealt – otherwise it wouldn’t be a card game.
But you keep thinking that, Hillary.

What about the person that needs to be president because they would be the first with a birthmark on their big toe? What a bigoted rag the NYT is, suppressing the right of people with birthmarks on their toe the right to be president.
In a more intelligent world we would be hiring or voting in people that are able to perform the job regardless of sex, race, etc, and not because they were born a certain way. Unfortunately, we don’t live in that world.

You’re 65 years old. What did you expect. Compound things deteriorate.
