A sometimes fawning, sometimes revealing, New York Times launches Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign
Absolute Rights ^ | 12/8/2014 | Jon E Dougherty

It’s official, or, as official as it’s going to get without the candidate herself saying so, but The New York Times has launched former first lady, U.S. senator and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s 2016 bid for president as the Democratic Party nominee. In a revealing piece published Saturday, the paper was at times fawning in its praise of Hillary, but at other times surprisingly frank, and for anyone truly interested in remembering just who she really is – and, more importantly, who she’s always been – the piece is a good starting point.

Now, to be sure, included in the piece were all of the obligatory bona fides: Quotes by former associates and staffers about how “smart” she is, how organized and decisive she is, how resolute and determined she is, how it was her, not husband Bill, who was the real force during his terms in office, and how she stuck with him thick and thin through a “complicated relationship,” and not for anything so tacky and tasteless as naked ambition, oh no.

She is an angry, bitter left-over from the radical New Left of the Sixties. a group described by all as nothing but self-centered spoiled brats.

I could go on, buy why?

What did she do as a NY senator? Nothing, but she sure is smart.

Good. Let the Slimes ruin what remains of their credibility, and let the leftist donor class waste bongo-bucks on the old hag.

"Indeed, throughout her White House tenure, Hillary’s temperament was a regular feature, a narcissistic reminder that she was in charge, she knew what
was best, and she wasn’t about to entertain anyone else’s ideas of what might – or might not – be in the country’s best interest."

She sounds more like a tyrant than a president who knows how to make a clear decision after listening to all his advisors.

BTW - should she really be allowed to run for a third term?

Almost everyone I have ever met from NY City looks down their noses at the rest of the nation as a group of New Yorker Wannabe's who are not nearly as savvy or smart as New Yorkers.

Yet these are the same people who were stupid enough to vote Hillary The Do-Nothing Carpetbagger to the Senate twice.

And think about some of their other choices - Jerrold Nadler, Schmucky Schumer, Charles Rangel, Anthony Weiner, Eliot Spitzer.....

One look at Bill de Blasio (nee Warren Wilhelm, Jr.) their latest selection for Mayor shows that they have become even less discerning and more irresponsible.
