Hillary Clinton says she won't run for president again
CNN Political Ticker ^ | Oct 12, 2009 | Mark Preston

Clinton also denied that her voice is not being heard in the administration, and said it is not her style to try and be the center of attention.

"I find it absurd," she said. "I find it beyond any realistic assessment of what I am doing everyday."

"Maybe there is some misunderstanding which needs to be clarified. I believe in delegating power. You know, I am not one of these people who feel's like I have to have my face in the front of the newspaper or on the TV every moment of the day. I would be irresponsible and negligent were I to say 'Oh no everything must come to me,'" she said.

"Now, maybe that is a woman's thing. Maybe I am totally secure and feel absolutely no need to go running around in order for people to see what I am doing. It is just the way I am. My goal is to be a very positive force to implement the kind of changes that the president and I believe are in the best interests of our country. But that doesn't mean it all has to be me, me, me all the time. I like lifting people up."

Ahh, Hill baby, after all you've put us through. We can't believe anything you say.

And, IMHO, if you had made POTUS, I think you'd be saying completely different things.

But that doesn't mean it all has to be me, me, me all the time.

So you and nobama are really that different? Ha!

Farewell future POTUS (yeah, right).

“Maybe there is some misunderstanding which needs to be clarified. I believe in delegating power. You know, I am not one of these people who feel’s like I have to have my face in the front of the newspaper or on the TV every moment of the day. I would be irresponsible and negligent were I to say ‘Oh no everything must come to me,’” she said.”

Sounds like a slap at Bammy to me...

This is the Clinton way of declaring for 2012.

Clintons always say the opposite of what they mean.

I read the original article a couple of days ago - she very carefully did NOT say a flat “no”. I think she's looking at the 2012 primary. Hmm. Maybe it WILL be the end of the world.

Actually, she is parsing. Given her wide beam, she can not run without generating a lot of friction, which could theoretically raise global temperatures. However, she could waddle in 2012 for the office.

I think , yet again that Bill was her downfall. She can’t recover from the fact that Bill showed her up in North Korea.

She said the same thing before the 2008 race.
