'She Gave a Big Chill Look That Is Icy -- Ooh!'

The problem Hillary has is that when you read that headline, you knew it was referring to her.Lynn Sweet has seen an angry Hillary up close and personal, and it left a mark, as you can see by the screen capture of Sweet describing that moment. You can't get much more mainstream than Lynn Sweet: D.C. bureau chief for the Chicago Sun-Times, columnist for The Hill, a weekly newspaper that covers the Congress, member of the National Press Club and the Gridiron Club.

Appearing on this afternoon's Hardball, Sweet was discussing the incident in which Hillary, in Iowa, jokingly referred to having experience with "evil men." The question naturally arose as to whether Hillary was alluding to Bill.

Asked host Chris Matthews: "She hasn't actually said yet, has she, that wasn't joking about Bill, has she?"

That's when Sweet described her brush with love-minus-zero Hillary:

"No. She said 'oh, come on,' because somebody said specifically somebody in the audience, in the interview, said 'is this the bad Bill' that she was talking about?"

Continued Sweet: "She then gave a big chill look, boy, that is icy, when you see that coming, that's, ooh!"

Note: My sincere apology goes to Lynn Sweet for posting that screencap. I did so only because it showed her reaction to Big Chill Hillary and thus illustrated the essence of the story. Here's hoping I'll soon have the occasion to post a more representative shot of the pleasant and charming Ms. Sweet.

Do we really have to deal with Hillary for another two years??

Two years? It could be another 10 years! That's why she needs to be stopped.

Worse would be for 10 more years. 2007-2008 and 2008-2016. That is a very bad thought.

Do we really have to deal with Hillary for another two years??

If we are lucky.

[null and void]

'Fraid so.

OTOH, when it's over we can compare her to the Earth. The Earth, as you will recall, is flattened at the poles...

[unkus]

Sorry. Shouldn't even contemplate such horrors.

Get ready for a Film Noir Presidency 2008..
Without the lame music.. or obvious clique's..

[Hildy]

Let's hope it's only two years.

[ReleaseTheHounds]

You know, one year of Hillary attempting to be likeable maybe worse than 8 years as awful co-president. "Calculating" doesn't begin to describe what Hillary Clinton is all about... but it sure ain't likeable.
