Hillary Clinton rebrands Obama’s frat house as her own
Washington Post ^ | February 17 , 2015 | Dana Milbank

The 2016 campaign has acquired an unexpected storyline in its early stages: All Madam President’s Men.

As Hillary Clinton begins to staff her nascent presidential campaign, a paradox has emerged. When she ran in 2008, she played down her potential to make history as the first woman to be president, but her campaign was run by a woman and dominated at the top levels by women. This time, Clinton is properly emphasizing her path-breaking role, but she’s relying on the old-boy network — in large part by taking over President Obama’s heavily male campaign apparatus.

Her campaign chairman: John Podesta. Her campaign manager: Robby Mook. Her chief strategist: Joel Benenson. Her pollsters: Benenson, John Anzalone and David Binder. Her top media guy: Jim Margolis. John, Robby, Joel, John, David and Jim join former Obama hands such as Jim, Jeremy and Mitch who have already been boosting Clinton’s candidacy in the super PAC world.

This is quite a departure from Clinton’s run eight years ago, -SNIP-

Imagine how hard reality would slap these menaces to humanity in the face if they had to actually live under the policies they promote.

So the most important qualification is that she is a woman? Funny thing is, she failed as pretty much everything else. Law partner, first lady, senator, real estate investor, secretary of state. Now that you mention it, she pretty much fails as a woman too. Just ask Billy Jeff.

Obama’s a dumb but pretty mulatto boy and she’s a dumb but ugly fat white hag.

See the similarity?

The Rodham likes to have emasculated men serving her.

When she and Slick were running the first time, she cut out the old time Washington crowd by moving the Clinton '08 headquarters to Little Rock. She called an "economic" meeting and all the dem reps sowed up to lap up the Koolaid.

I remember Tom Foley's face as he stood there behind the podium while Hillary spoke. It was as if he had been read the riot act and was told just exactly how things were going to change now that The Rodham was going to be in control.

Sorta like the look on his face here:

He got outta Dodge as soon as he could.

Don’t forget, she was let go from the Watergate Investigation and her boss said he could not recommend her for future positions.
