From a year ago: Dec 13, 2007. This was the beginning of Hillary's "taking off the gloves" bit with Obama:
Of course, that smug cackle of hers we hear in this clip not even one year old has suddenly dropped off the ether, never to be fired in Barry's direction again. This Hillary 2.0 update has deep respect for the NEW Man From Hope, Barack Obama.
And why shouldn't she? Maybe, just maybe, Hill sees a better man in Barack than the one she married 30 years ago. From her woman's perspective, she can look at the two men who cost her the presidency, and with studied observation know just what she lost out on when she hitched her wagon to Bill Clinton: authenticity.
Bill is a back-slapping good ol' boy in disguise. What he hides is his band camp/Rhodes Scholar/draft-dodging side, which he whips out with ease according to whatever setting he's in. Folksy Arkansas drawl one second, lawyerly the next. Willing to get involved in shady land deals with ease one moment, then sell the participants down the river the next.
The only problem is that Barack is no fountain of authentic ANYthing, but he is more real than Bill Clinton. And he beat HER in a popularity contest! What does that say about her likeability? (or lack, thereof)
Her attempted catapult to the Presidency occupied her best years, from age 40-60. Now that she has accepted Barry's offer of Secretary of State, she will, in effect, be castrated from seducing the candidacy for at least 4 years, and probably 8. She will be over 70, and the country will be moody and anxious for a change from the many years of Democratic rule.
It is a sad realization for ol' Hill, now that she has to turn around at the end of her life, and accept that all of her time and efforts have been spent for the desires of empty men.
Her time to be president has now passed.
Now, she must spend her days listening to yet ANOTHER man boldly tell his staff what directions to take, what issues need watching,...and be secretly furious that it isn't HER telling the staff what directions to take, what issues to watch, etc. She must now smile and do Barry's biding, lest she is portrayed by an already-jaundiced news industry as "not a team player", "power-driven", or "seeking revenge".
Obama is the angry black man in one setting, and the lawyerly, thoughtful deliberator the next. Raised by an atheist into adulthood, then proclaim newfound desire for Reverand Wright's version of Christianity when you need to establish some street credentials as a young adult before you run for office from that district.
Is this the position Hillary envisioned when she dreamed at night, before the 3am call would come in?
