Dems, Tell Hillary to Go Back to the Woods (Hillary's pity party alert)
RealClear Politics ^ | April 21, 2017 | A.B. Stoddard

Before Hillary Clinton puts more miles on her comeback tour, Democrats should let her know she's done enough damage and it's time to pack it in. That won't stop her, since even after losing to Donald Trump she fancies herself some misunderstood martyr, but it might slow her down a bit.

While they crawl out of the wilderness that both Clinton and President Obama left them in, any moments Democrats spend amusing their failed 2016 nominee as she tries to find a way back to some sort of relevance is more than wasted energy -- it's self-sabotage.

Last week Clinton sat in sanguine reflection at a carefully timed interview at a Women in the World Summit event and blamed everyone but herself for her staggering loss five months ago. After telling New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof that personally she’s just fine, but that "as an American, I'm pretty worried," she listed the causes for her loss: WikiLeaks, for publishing real emails about her campaign; Russia, for interfering in the campaign; FBI Director James Comey; and misogyny. When asked about future office, she did not rule it out, repeating that she wants to do "interesting things" and has "no plans" to ever run again. It was, well, Clintonian in its predictability.

Days after her remarks, a devastating tell-all was published that renders the same conclusion -- no matter how badly things go, it's never on Hillary.

She can blame the world if she wants to, perhaps global warming, anything. As I see it, the only thing Hitlary is sorry about is she got caught. End of story.

Part of me wants het go go away forever, but the strategic thinking in me says she should try to stay in the spotlight.

Whenever the field is overloaded with candidates, like in the current Georgia race, we always have comments about how the party should stop them all & concentrate on just one good candidate. But the problem is that it’s the candidates themselves who make the decision to run. The party can encourage or discourage, but ultimately people are going to do what they’re going to do.

As for Hillary, she’s going nowhere. But let her pinhead supporters keep pouring money down that drain. It won’t be used where it might be more helpful.

Whenever Hillary’s name is mentioned, I suggest attaching the phrase “two time loser” as a political prophylactic. Clearly, two time loser Hillary Clinton’s political ambitions have not been dampened. Repeating the entirely accurate phrase over and over until it leaks into the consciousness of the Clinton synchophants would be beneficial.

A fix for the first line of the article: Before two time loser Hillary Clinton puts more miles on her comeback tour, Democrats should let her know she’s done enough damage and it’s time to pack it in.

“blamed everyone but herself for her staggering loss five months ago”

Her loss was only “STAGGERING” to people who were too busy sniffing their own farts thinking it was fresh mountain air.

Hillary was ALWAYS the underdog in that election, ALWAYS. Once Trump was the nominee, the race was effectively over. Any other R, and we were looking at at best a squeaker win one way or the other... because without the tactical move of tossing out free trade and open boarders, its is very unlikely the upper midwest would have realigned.

OH, and IA yes, PA, MI, WI... not likely.

Not only is she a 2 time loser, but a two time loser to political NEOPHYTES.... Both time she lost to people that were about as green to national politics as you could find.

No plans to run again actually means she is looking for a plan. If she said her poltical career was over, it would actually mean something.

If the Democrats ever want to start winning elections they are going to have to distance themselves from Clintons, 0bamas, and perverts. They are going have to tone down the socialism a bit as well. Well that is never going to happen
