Hillary on 2016 loss: 'That was my last race'

Sorry. Not buying the Clinton family rehab

If you watched any news over Easter weekend, you probably heard a lot about two giant bombs. The first was the MOAB that fell in Afghanistan. The second was Hillary Clinton’s doomed 2016 campaign.

The media dredged up the latter thanks to a new book called “Shattered: Inside Hillary Clinton’s Doomed Campaign.” Written by The Hill’s Amie Parnes and Sidewire’s Jonathan Allen, the tome claims to contain the inside story of the collapse of the Clinton machine and what really went down on Election Night. The book sounds interesting, and you’re going to hear a lot about it but, for reasons we’ll get to, I’m not necessarily buying the narrative it’s pushing.

I don’t believe it.

She’s a proven liar.

Like anyone of her ilk she does have moments of clarity. Doesn’t mean it will last.

“last” as in final?
Or “last” as in most recent previous?

Still, there’s an entire industry out there dedicated to restoring the Clinton brand. Anything that furthers that goal should be taken with a grain of salt.

Still sounds like some decent tidbits in the thing, but yeah, the conversation mentioned in the article is entirely out of character. Anyone who thinks that Hillary was looking for a graceful bow-out doesn't know her at all.

If they don’t have the real story about her trashing her hotel suite after she lost, as heard by secret service agents and hotel staff, then this book is half-@$$ed.

Hillary should get a ghost writer and write murder mysteries set in D.C.

Her Hollywood friends could make HBO movies from them and Hillary could make a pile of legal money to leave to Chelsea.

The only problem with the plan is that Hillary prefers illegal money.

Hillary Rodham Clinton is 69 years old and not that hale. She knows that there are much younger, more viable candidates like Cory Booker, Joaquin or Julian Castro and Gavin Newsom. As such, it’s time for her to step aside for these younger candidates.

In 2013, I remember vividly her on some show saying that she is done, and that she has done enough in her life. I tried in vain to find a copy of that show.

Her calender reminder was pre programmed with an info release date/time/content.

Now, I’m going back up to YouTube and watch her AFL-CIO telecast speech and relive just how close we came to destroying this country.

*** “That was my last Race” ***

Is she is in the market for a White Bronco?

(She moved from Races to Chases?)

No, they need to run a much younger candidate. The Left was totally spoiled by Barack Obama (who was only 48 when he was elected President).

Sure, the quotes aren't exact. More likely they're what somebody wishes Clinton had said.

But Hillary Clinton may be past the point where what she wants in her heart of hearts really matters. That is to say, she may not be in any shape physically to run again.

Last time, everybody (except Bernie) made way for her to run. Next time, different candidates will jump into the race early -- Warren, Booker, Gillibrand, Harris -- and there won't be any room left for HRC.
