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........

she behaves as one who is brain damaged.

how did she get that brain clot?

queer, is it not?

toast is the word.

Kerry and Al Gore will slug it out with a few other bench warmers.

this one in the picture is a drooler for some reason.

pity she had such promise.

This shrieking harridan wants to be president? Does America really want these two a-holes in The White House again? I mean we all know don't we that Goldilocks here as president is just a third term for Bill, right?

All she has to do is go into hiding for awhile and re-emerge in a year with a fresh facelift and a commitment to continue Obama’s Marxist policies. Couple that with the rapidly shifting demographics and burgeoning dependency class .. along with a general hatred in America of the GOP.... It’s a slam-dunk for her. The only drama in 2016 will be who she picks as VP.

Yep. Those who doubt it forget the undeniable fact the old America died. Common sense and logic don’t rule the day anymore.

“Does America really want these two a-holes in the White House again?”

Unfortunately that answer is a resounding “yes.” If they can’t have The Beloved for a third term, absolutely they clamor for Hillary.

Hitlary will be pushing a walker in another four years.

Curious, isn’t it.....the late Charles Colson went to prison in the Watergate era for having one FBI file of a democrat in his possession, yet Bill and Hill had over 900 FBI files of Republicans in their possession during their eight year reign, and nothing happens to them.

You’re absolutely correct.
She’ll crush SlowJoe and Cuomo early on in the primaries, then sit back and watch a dozen Republicans shred each other just like this year.
