Politics: While Chelsea Clinton is busy peddling her new children's book about inspirational women, titled "She Persisted," Democrats are trying to get her mother to stop persisting. The irony is apparently lost on them. Earlier this week, The Hill ran a story titled "Dems want Hillary Clinton to leave spotlight." It quoted party types saying things like "Good God, what is she doing?" and "Blaming everyone else is not a good political strategy."
Clinton is taking hits from liberal commentators as well, who are now arguing that she "doesn't seem to realize that the curtain has come down on her political career" and that she's "driving a double-decker bus over her party." Stop making excuses, they say. Stop talking about 2016.
Note that these calls didn't come months ago when Clinton was claiming that the Russians stole the election, or blaming James Comey, or attacking the media for supposedly fixating on her email problems.
She told CNN's Christiane Amanpour in early May that "I'm back to being an active citizen and part of the resistance." Soon after she announced the formation of Onward Together, which has been billed as a political organization aimed at funding groups "standing up to Trump." Nobody told her to stop then.

I hope she keeps it up she is only hurting herself and her party.
Now what was the end game for that?
We have more saloons in our little village than stores.

Likewise, Clinton’s sense of entitlement is an embodiment of the Democratic Party’s message to any and all special interest groups.
Democrats might not like having Clinton hog the stage. But it’s not as though they would be saying anything different.

Game, Set, Match. 6-0, 6-0, 6-0.
These two sentences embody the entire reason for Russia, Russia, Russia. It’s all they have and even that is a balloon filled with pinholes.
Hillary is the herpes of the Democrat Party.
I wonder if she would have looked more respectable if she acted the way Dr. Janice Lester did near the end of the Star Trek TOS episode “Turnabout Intruder”, lol?

There are many terrible reasons for President Trump’s victory, but there are two things that were not a factor. First, Hillary was the perfect candidate; nothing she did harmed her candidacy in any way. Second, President Trump was the worst candidate imaginable; nothing he did helped his candidacy at all, except with racists, sexists, bigots, and the rest of the basket of deplorables.
Look around....they have no one...
She's deluded. Nothing more humiliating than a Pity Party.
Hillary is like a bad case of jock itch, the more you “scratch her” the worse it gets!
We are way past visuals on that one. She indeed has been a chronic irritation. Great analogy
It would be nice if liberals, like the person who sees an old flame years later that is a train wreck, begin to see Hillary with that same sense of having avoided a horror...
Naaahhh. Never happen.
As will hemorrhoids. And that's exactly what Hillary is, a pain in the ass!
Shes royalty don’t you know...a royal pain in the ass!
Can we chip in and by them a Tour of London package?
Poll tested and the polls told the Dems to get rid of her.
The pity is, she can’t really make a difference. That chance is gone
The party chose her so she would run, lose, and they could be rid of her once and for all. But she refuses to stop fund raising. She will never stop fund raising.
LOL. . .yes, it is exactly what a normal person would do. . .and, as you point out, it will never happen. It will never happen because to be a lib is to depart from normalcy and to embrace delusion.
