TORONTO—The snow is falling lightly.
My thoughts are racing darkly.
I’m feeling something foreign, something I’ve never felt before. It takes me a moment to identify it.
I’m feeling sorry for the Clintons.
In the 27 years I’ve covered Bill and Hillary, I’ve experienced a range of emotions. They’ve dazzled me and they’ve disgusted me.
But now they’re mystifying me.
I’m looking around Scotiabank Arena, the home of the Toronto Maple Leafs, and it’s a depressing sight. It’s two-for-the-price-of-one in half the arena. The hockey rink is half curtained off, but even with that, organizers are scrambling at the last minute to cordon off more sections behind thick black curtains, they say due to a lack of sales. I paid $177 weeks in advance. (I passed on the pricey meet-and-greet option.) On the day of the event, some unsold tickets are slashed to single digits.
I get reassigned to another section as the Clintons’ audience space shrinks. But even with all the herding, I’m still looking at large swaths of empty seats —and I cringe at the thought that the Clintons will look out and see that, too. It was only four years ago, after all, that Canadians were clamoring to buy tickets to see the woman who seemed headed for history.
It’s a sad contrast with the sold-out boffo book tour of Michelle Obama, who’s getting a lot more personal for the premium prices. But introspection has never been within the Clintons’ range.
I can’t fathom why the Clintons would make like aging rock stars and go on a tour of Canada and the U.S. at a moment when Democrats are hoping to break the stranglehold of their cloistered, superannuated leadership and exult in a mosaic of exciting new faces.

“After losing to an orange puffer clown fish who will go down as one of the most destructive forces in American history and flushing the Obama legacy down the drain, that’s delusional. “
That sentence is truly a pity.
I’m just here for the pictures, thanks for observing the rules..
Her statement is delusional. And a perfect example of liberal projection.
When Bill Clinton dies (I’m betting while on top of some bimbo) I’m wondering if he will be remembered with the same dignity now being given to Bush 41. There is just something tacky about the Clinton’s and the sparse crowds showing up for there latest road trip seem to indicate the public is tired of them.
We have a large group of people who make a lot of money stealing from the government.
Why not? Nelson Rockerfeller did.
I want the Clintons to die n the prison hospital. Date unimportant.
Yeah, the elderly schoolgirl is getting too wrapped up with trying to be clever at the expense of being coherent.
I thank God and her parents.
Yep.
There will long be a few die-hard Democrats wanting to make pilgrimages to the Clinton legacies.
Mo still loves them. She just can’t help herself.
Politicians never go away. They can't let go. They get addicted to the power and the royal treatment, they are addicted. It's a disease.
