Here's a philosophical question: Isn't creating a wax figure of Hillary Clinton just a wee bit redundant? In her robin's-egg blue pantsuit, strenuously coiffed hair, and a smile plastered on her puss that says, "Don't eff with me, buddy," Her Hillaryness serves as inspiration for the newest dummy to grace Madame Tussaud's in Midtown.
All of which makes me wonder: How can you tell the real one from the fake? And, perhaps more importantly: Is there really much difference?
I got a sneak peek at the brand-new and totally unauthorized wax sculpture of Hillary, to be unveiled today at a mock Hillary 2008 political rally - just in time for Presidents Day.
Get it?
Now, I've met the former and wannabe future White House tenant on many occasions over the years. And I've studied and absorbed her shtick with equal parts fascination and revulsion, bordering on scary obsession.
My, how she's grown! When Hillary first shot out of husband Bill's shadow, lusting for political power, she was a painfully stiff, but hardworking, speaker with lousy hair and leftist ideals.
Now she's developed into a painfully stiff, but hardworking, speaker with world-class hairstylists and center-right ideals that poll well in red states.
Still, it came as a shock to enter Tussaud's gallery - and see Hillary looking as if a butter pat would turn to ice in her mouth.

Oh, she'll really be attractive then.
Looks like my wife's pyjamas.
Bump
It dawned on me one day that she did so because she was assured of winning. That's right, I think the outcome was assured ahead of time. She would not have run if there would have been any doubt about her winning. Her ego cannot handle any form of rejection. It would simply shatter her image of herself, which she is incapable of handling emotionally.
Based upon this premise, I predict that Hillary will run in '08 if she is assured of winning. That is, if she runs, she will be elected. The demoRats will have rigged enough precincts in large metropolitan areas that will assure her of being elected. If she isn't sure she is going to win, she will not run.
With the current laws as I understand them, she can campaign and collect contributions without recourse. If she does not run, she gets to keep all of the contributions that were not spent, thus personally enriching herself. She has nothing to lose in acting like she is running.
If she runs, the fix is in.
Obligatory The Power of Makeup web site.
Yeah, she's switching from Socialist to Objectivist.
Nice take.....looking back, as a candidate, the attitude she presented to voters was awfully smug and self-satisfied.....as if She Knew.
AS attractive as Winston Churchill during his last term?
Too much bronzer.
Yeah, she's switching from Socialist to Objectivism.....
Yep,and who better to promote selfishness to a virtue? (slight twist of tongue)
"Is there really much difference?" Yeh! The wax dummy can't kill you.....
Not by half! I'm thinking Mother Teresa's evil twin!

You can put lipstick on a PIG, but it's still a PIG!!!

She always looks like she's in the middle of a sex change....but hasn't quite finished.
