Hillary Clinton Ducks Question On Presidential Run (Doesn't rule out bid)
The Boston Herald ^ | Monday, June 11, 2012 | Chris Cassidy

Posted on 06/11/2012 9:16:21 PM PDT by kristinn

A week after her husband’s awkward off-message praise of Mitt Romney’s “sterling” business record embarrassed the Obama campaign, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton shook her head but then shrugged and laughed when a questioner at Wellesley College yesterday suggested she’d be the next leader of the free world.

“If you get elected as the next president ...” began a woman from Yemen, who was interrupted by nearly 25 seconds of applause from the friendly crowd at Clinton’s alma mater yesterday, where Clinton and former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright were inaugurating the Women in Public Service Institute.

Clinton shook her head multiple times, but as the cheers grew, she shrugged her shoulders in a “hey you never know” gesture of possibility, then began chuckling heartily.

She then launched into an explanation of the political turmoil in Yemen, ignoring the audience’s presidential urging.

Fascination with her? I wonder if it’s that the feminists, and there are a lot of them, including many housewives, and lackey husbands, idolize her because she has gonads and uses themd, at least metaphorically.

They don’t of their country or the Constituion. They don’t think at all.

It’s all emotion. stupid, illogical, aimless emotion.

And passion (anger).

And they will sell out their country and yours for the right to kill babies, and not just their own.

Just a thought.

Hillary is every bit as much an Alinskyite as zero. I say - no more Clintons in the WH. I’ve had my gut full of progressives, and she’s no different.

Time for her and Billy boy to retire.

Wow.. She doesn’t even care how she looks anymore. I kind of admire that.

Completely agree with you on her being an Alinsky disciple as is Obama. Both trained under him, and Hillary, formerly a college Republican interned with Alinsky. After that she moved left on the political spectrum and then kept going. If she, God forbid, ran and was elected, we would see her continue implementing the dismantling of the US, albeit with a little more finesse than Zero. Still, she would be a bull in a china shop since she’s proven to lack real political skills.

“why does anyone think that Hillary riding in on a white horse will somehow save Obama, or win the presidency in 2016? I just don’t get the reasoning.”

It is hard for reasonable people to understand that but consider:
1. An electorate dumb enough to elect 0bama is certainy dumb enough to vote for Hillary
2. Desparation

The only Dem other than Hillary that could be a nominee would be former Senator Evan Bayh of Indiana.

Then it would be a good hair battle for the ages.(Romney-Bayh)

We are in the midst of one great social experiment with our first black President.

Do we really need another, with the first female President?

I don’t think so.

People have forgotten how awful she sounds when she speaks. She’s Nurse Ratchet.

Hillary’s gone downhill since that photo, she looks like the cleaning lady now - sadly.

Absolutely beautiful graphic, Phil! KUDOS!

I haven’t read the thread...just returned from being out of town. BUT...do you think that black America would stand to have their guy removed?

Oh, heck NO!

However, the Clintons will do everything they can to “help” unseat Obama, and set up a Hillary! run in 2016.

The real problem is that Huma from the Umma is Saudi Arabian whose mother wears a burqa and who, with her brother and others in her family are prominent members of the Muslim brotherhood.
