Kathleen Parker: For Hillary Clinton, the time may finally be right
The Washington Post ^ | March 22, 2013 | Kathleen Parker

No matter what Barack Obama does, he cannot escape the shadow of his former political opponent.

Hillary Clinton, back from her global travels visiting places and peoples hardly heard of on this continent, is stealing the spotlight without even touching the stage.

President Obama visits the Middle East, makes history as he speaks war to Syria and Iran and peace to Israelis and Palestinians, and the talk back home circles The Big Question: Will Hillary run?

The former first lady, the former senator and now the former secretary of state is everywhere — and nowhere to be seen. Sent away by this president upon his unlikely victory in 2008 against the Clinton machine and the inevitable first woman president, Hillary is back.

Few people, and far fewer women, have attracted so much attention as Hillary Clinton. She carries the unique burden of being something to everyone: Loved, despised, admired, feared, a role model, a terrifying omen, politician, mother, wife, nemesis, scold, muse. She is a conundrum of one.

And she is running for president. Isn’t she?

No sooner did Obama raise his right hand to begin his second term than the whispers began. This is true for Washington, at least, if nowhere else........

A column of pure flapdoodle. People are talking about Hillary! Some people like Hillary! Other people don’t like Hillary! Hillary! may run for President.

Snore.

Oh, I have no doubt, agreed completely.

She is perfect for America.

I can imagine no one else that represents just how far this country has fallen better than her.

And once she’s in, we will fall even farther.

I can imagine no republican that is likely to run that has even the most remote chance of beating her.

The GOP depth chart is empty.

Apparently she is polling higher than Jeb and Rubio in FL. Un effing believable!

Heh. Yeah, they’re going to hook old political women up like the Borg and have ‘em rule the national roost forever. Feminism goes out with a groan.

the Dems are stuck with running her.

It’s her time.

but, the old Goggle-Eyed Gargoylette couldn’t sober up by 2016 even if she spent the next 3 years channelling Betty Ford.

You can bet The Stain has extra security these days. She’ll need that sympathy vote.

That’s a bad sign. We’ll probably have no more honest presidential elections.

It may already be too late. Age has not been kind to her. She’s too ugly now and in 4 more years, well, I don’t want to draw that mental image.

and likely put on 50 more pounds as well

“I’ve asked a half-dozen close Clinton associates if she’s running, and they all say the same thing: “I have no idea.” I suspect this is true and that Hillary doesn’t really know. Except that she does know, and all her colleagues really do know, and we all know. Really, don’t we?”

This is probably the most ridiculous article ever written. I contains no information or insight whatsoever. It is just the author rambling on about how she worships Hillary Clinton and hopes she will run for president.

Evidently, the Beast's disappearance is related to Huma's bandaged arms seen recently, due to, ahem, a "cooking accident" (yeah, sure!)

To: Revolting cat!

The two data points, the appearance of Huma’s bandaged arms, and Hillary!™’s disappearance, are closely coupled in time.
