If Bill Clinton was Elvis, Hillary was the Statue of Liberty, inspired by Pelosi's triumph (more about that in a future story) and welcoming the huddled masses, who were pushing each other out of the way to take pictures with her.

Filmmaker Peter Kaufman, a friend of Christine Pelosi's, set the tone of the evening's festivities. He quoted someone else he'd heard that day: "She's the most powerful Italian since Caesar.''

Don't know about this. Gotti and Capone were pretty powerful.

I seem to recall Il Duce!

His end wasn't too good though (and neither was his mistress's!)

"Power" my butt!

She hasn't and won't "accomplish" anything.
How is this supposed "power" measured?
Shouldn't "results" be a component?

These clowns think "position" is a unit of measure for "power".

Too bad she and her supporters don't think of her as a powerful American.

Oh, well ...

We think alike but for those who remember Mussolini I was going to suggest Il Douche.
