The Empress Has No Clothes

Watching the debate last night it finally hit me.

Why Hillary stayed married all these years to a serial philanderer.

Fear. Fear of having to try to accomplish her life-long goal of becoming the President without her security blanket . . . Bill.

The plain truth . . . one that many Hillary sycophants just can’t handle . . . is that the difference in political IQ between Bill and Hillary is so wide you could drive the entire old Soviet Red Army through it.

It’s the difference between a Chemistry Major and a full blown Liberal Arts education. One is built on memory and one is built on critical thinking skills.

Putting aside Bill’s complete inability to act like a mensch (which he sometimes shares with Trump . . . which explains how galling this is going to be to her when she loses next month) one thing he certainly knew was how to think on his feet when necessary.

She can’t.

Rote memorization is fine if you need to learn the Periodic Table, formulas and the like. But it’s sort of like Colonel Nathan Jessup saying ‘if you don’t follow orders people die’. Multiple times last night we got the Hillary that can’t think on her feet and it wasn’t a pretty picture. When the sequence allowed her to think A, then B then C, she was able to SOUND fine.

SOUND FINE. POLITICALLY.

But when challenged outside her linear thinking she makes JEB! look energetic, Kasich likeable and Admiral James Stockdale look like a Harvard professor.

There is no there there. Or as Mondale would have said, ‘Where’s the beef’?

No wonder the entire Clinton operation and machine is targeted to avoid deviation from what she can handle. Why it is so overly analytical. The difference between running Bill and Hillary is that Bill could actually make a gut decision. One thing the Wikileaks emails clearly shows is that Team Hillary is the epitome of paralysis by analysis!

It was painful to watch last night.

How she freaked out at times.

And how lucky she was that Bernie didn’t make more of the emails himself. If he is smart he is kicking himself the rest of his life for that bonehead decision.

It also shows what happens when you surround yourself with loyalists and brook no dissent. The signs were always there. The many books written about her nasty demeanor in private. The Klein books on the Clinton-Obama feud. The complete reluctance to challenge her decision-making.

It’s all there. Compare how Team Clinton handled the private server to Team Clinton handling security concerns in 1993. Remember Gary Aldrich’s book Unlimited Access? The same thing all over again! SHE NEVER LEARNED HER LESSON! Hubris the Ancient Greeks called it. And Zeus had a way of sending the message.

And now this inability to deviate from script and learn the lessons will cost her the election.

To a man who must remind her of Bill’s worst trait of womanizing!

How so apt . . .

All this preparation time and look what good it did her.

The Foundation question? Wallace shredded her with it.

How can she come up with that answer? 90% goes to charity? It’s a PUBLIC entity that files an ANNUAL REPORT. How can she think she can lie through that one? And then she tries to BS her way through with talking about AIDS aid. It was W’s administration that got that ball rolling, not the Clinton Foundation.

Team Clinton worked well when Bill was at the top . . . he knew how to think quickly. She does not.

And last night one other old fable came into play . . .

All the king’s horses and all the king’s men can’t put Humpty Hillary’s campaign back together again . . .

November 9th will be a lot of fun for our side.

That’s what Hillary said she scrubbed her server with.

NBC was “fact checking” this morning and said Trump was wrong 70% of the time while Hillary was wrong on about 30% of the time. I figure the knew how to subtract 70 from 100 and that’s how they came up with her number.
