On Tuesday morning, former First Lady Hillary Clinton said not getting a divorce from former President Bill Clinton was the "gustiest thing" she's ever done, personally. Publicly and politically, she said the gutsiest thing she's done is run for president. "I think the gutsiest thing I’ve ever done ... Personally, make the decision to stay in my marriage. Publicly, politically, run for president," Clinton said at an event for her latest book. She co-wrote The Book of Gutsy Women: Favorite Stories of Courage and Resilience with her daughter, Chelsea.

Drawing on a trove of private papers from Hillary Clinton’s best friend, the legendary Watergate journalist Carl Bernstein is to publish a hard-hitting and intimate portrait of the 2008 presidential candidate, which will reveal a number of “discrepancies” in her official story.

In the last couple of weeks, she has stepped to the left of the president on health care, to the right of the president on Iran and into the realm of radicalism on race. Positioning herself for the 2008 presidential campaign, Sen. Clinton (D-N.Y.) is simultaneously broadening and narrowing her policy positions. Mostly, she just calls repeatedly for "new leadership." Hillary's policy positions are nothing new. She has nothing particularly interesting to say. In fact, Hillary's talking points are the same as 2004 Democratic presidential nominee...

Bill Clinton may be an honorary member of the Bush family, but that hasn't tempered criticism from his senator-wife one bit. In her latest email to prospective donors, Hillary blasts Bush as a power-mad politician whose policies are "wrong for America." "What I see happening in Washington is a concerted effort by the Administration and the leadership in Congress to really create absolute power," she complained. Hillary warns that Republicans are trying to "remake America in their image." "[They're] reversing the progress we have made as a country, not just undoing the achievements of the Clinton Administration, but taking us...
