All Clintoned Out
PJ Media ^ | 13 July 2014 | Victor Davis Hansen

Barack Obama did not blow apart Hillary Clinton’s huge lead during the 2008 Democratic primaries just because he was a landmark African-American candidate, new to the scene, and a skilled campaigner. Even Democrats were all Clintoned out.

By such weariness, I don’t suggest that either of the Clintons is unpopular. Indeed, Americans apparently look fondly back on the high-growth 1990s as the continuation of the Reagan-Bush boom years, and a time when Democrats and Republicans finally fixed budget deficits. (Note well that when Obama went back to the Clinton-era tax rates for the more affluent, the deficit dipped, but certainly did not approach the balanced budget that was once achieved by spending discipline under the Clinton-Gingrich compromise.)

Exactly. Glen Beck is collecting money (supposedly) for the border invaders. I bet most of that money has come from people that can barely afford it. If the story has any truth to it....

Someone tweeted that Beck said he’s raised $700,000 already. Crazy. Like you said, most from those that can afford it the least.

The bright and shiny new dem to take her place this time will be Julian Castro.

I love this synopsis of the Clintons:

What a strange couple the Clintons became: the feminist president who was a serial groper and ace harasser; the feminist secretary of State who chortled in recall about an old sexual battery case in which she got a rapist off easy, and whose advisors reduced Bill’s liaisons to trailer trash or nuts; the two populists who cashed in; the middle-class defenders who fawned over Wall Street; and on and on.
