Ah ! well a-day ! what evil looks
Had I from old and young !
Instead of the cross, the Albatross
About my neck was hung.

From "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge

This is exactly why I do my damnedest to refer to her always as Mrs. Clinton. This accomplishes two things: it rubs it in her face, and it reminds the voting public of exactly who she is.

As she seeks to become the country's first female president, she wants to be known to supporters simply as "Hillary" -- no married name or maiden name necessary.

The feminazis would be proud.

I wonder if for some it calls attention to the fact that on some issues she must distance herself from he who is still her husband. The baggage is still there, but she is trying to hide it.

Once they achieve single name status, there's no stopping them.

In the next several years, Hillary will be the name least used when parents name their daughters, like Jezebel, and for boys, Benedict or Judas.

The distancing only works when she needs it.

Otherwise, when her campaign gets in trouble, she will look to Bill for help.

Sydney Morning Herald ^ | March 2, 2007 | MCT
Hillary Clinton won't go alone to this weekend's Alabama showdown with Barack Obama for black votes: Show-stealing husband Bill Clinton is riding to her aid. The popular former US president's first campaign appearance with his wife couldn't come at a more strategic moment: Obama is keynoting Sunday's civil rights commemoration in Selma, Alabama. At churches just moments away from each other, Clinton and Obama will give nearly simultaneous speeches. The Clintons and Obama will then join a symbolic march over the Edmund Pettus bridge, where state troopers beat civil rights activists in 1965. At the end of the march, the...

Another Cooleridge verse comes to mind;
