Last week, in a private meeting with longtime supporters of her and her husband -- including many former senior members of the Clinton Administration -- Sen. Hillary Clinton insisted that, "this is not a reboot of 1992," according to an attendee of the meeting.
"She made it clear that she was happy to see so many friendly faces, but also made it clear that she knows she can't afford to be tied to Bill's Administration and history," says the attendee. "She made the point, though, that she also understood that if it weren't for her husband and his leadership, Barack Obama would not be in the position that he is in today. If that's going to be her message going forward, we're in trouble."
According to campaign insiders, Clinton and her senior team are mulling whether or not they require some kind of dramatic action to change up the narrative of her campaign going forward. "There's a real division over what to do," says one adviser. "Some think we let it ride. Others say we have to do something that distances her from Bill and all the bad stuff that has played out over the past six weeks. We just don't know."

But if she’s not tied to Bill’s administration and history, where does her vaunted “experience” come from?
We’ll see if Bill’s gambit to play Hispanics on blacks works out. Either way their party is gonna be cut deep from this race. Can’t wait to see Brown on Black race card pulling. Jesse Jackson vs ...uh (as of yet non famous la Raza person).
It was her husband who turned this into a racially charged contest and lost the black vote for his wife. Gotta give Obama credit for trying to steer clear of that.
I will be so happy to see these two grifters off the stage of American politics.
The widow Hillary would get a lot of sympathy votes.
“She made the point, though, that she also understood that if it weren’t for her husband and his leadership, Barack Obama would not be in the position that he is in today.

Bow to your masters!
Can anyone honestly say that Hillary has shown great leadership, based on her campaign? She got everything she had from her husband's notoriety, and then, when things looked bad...this feminist icon turned on the "poor me, I'm just a WOMAN!" waterworks.
And now that THAT trick has done all it can, she's considering "changing the narrative"?
The Hillary Administration looks to be bombing in previews.
“She made the point, though, that she also understood that if it weren’t for her husband and his leadership, Barack Obama would not be in the position that he is in today.

What complete and anti-factual nonsense. WJC is responsible for the civil rights movement?
They’ve INHALED.
“She made the point, though, that she also understood that if it weren’t for her husband and his leadership, Barack Obama would not be in the position that he is in today.”
This is one of those things I find so extremely offensive about liberals. When it all boils down to it, they do not see minorities as anything but pets that they, due to thier supernatural kindness and generocity, take care of.
So Bill is the reason that poor little black Barak got a break against the big, bad, white machine. Oh spare me! I’ve seen this condescending attitude so many times it sickens me, but here they actually say the words.
Hillary, People just don’t acquiesce to the idea that you are a lovable human being, Most likely they never will. Your dreams will taste like ash in your mouth. You will never be able to slake your lust for power. You are cursed to haunt the hallways of power but never enter.....

Gosh,you need a Hil brake.
While true, I don't think that the Secret Service agents assigned to protect the ex-president, would cooperate.
I was standing in line at the grocery check-out counter and the tabloid headline was "Hillary's secret divorce agreement."
I wonder if she would get as many sympathy votes, if she found out that her husband was cheating on her and publicly divorced him? Inquiring minds want to know?
I know Hillary gets extra votes if she crys...but does she also get votes for crazy bommerang acts about Bubba’s ‘92 crew.
She wants ‘em and know she will lose with ‘em, etc.
So, is she criticizing or complimenting Bubba?
