Hillary Clinton wants off the ‘merry-go-round’

She’s in good health from yoga and exercise, but Secretary of State Hillary Clinton says she’s tired by the “merry-go-round” of public life and ready to get off it for good at the end of President Barack Obama’s first term.
“I think that I am a pretty normal, average person, despite all of the hype,” Clinton said in an interview with the BBC conducted Thursday. “And I am very interested in spending time with my friends and my family and not being on the merry-go-round all the time.”
That, she said, is why she plans to “move on and return to private life at the end of what will be a very intense period of activity and work in the next 18 months.”
Clinton has made similar comments in several interviews this year, but this time they were unprompted, coming in response to a question about what the general public might not know about her.
Clinton said she never wakes up too tired to go to work, but instead says to herself, “I’m tired so I better get up and get going.”
“Every day is fascinating to me because I really don’t know what’s going to happen during the day,” she said. “I am very aware of how much energy this takes because, clearly, it’s a nonstop marathon. But let me knock on wood here, I have been lucky with health, stamina, and all that goes with it.”
Friends, she said, call and email her saying, “’Oh, my gosh, I saw you on television. You looked so tired.’ Which I send back saying, ‘Gee, thanks a lot.’”

No comparison.
Obama has spent three years screwing up Hillary's machine. Would you rather have the person who actually made the machine as president, or the one who screws it up? She's the train, he's the paint job on it.
The still-to-be-told story is why the machine dumped it's maker, and replaced her with the boy-toy who was only supposed to be the token black male VP held in place by his birth fraud. Obama was never "supposed" to be president. Hillary was never "supposed" to be kicked to the curb.
But something happened on the way to the coronation... and the Rats are still shrieking in fear over it... LOL.
