...But Hillary herself, with her thin, spotty record, tangled psychological baggage, and maundering blowhard of a husband, is also a mighty big roll of the dice. She is a brittle, relentless manipulator with few stable core values who shuffles through useful personalities like a card shark ("Cue the tears!"). Forget all her little gold crosses: Hillary's real god is political expediency. Do Americans truly want this hard-bitten Machiavellian back in the White House? Day one will just be more of the same.

Paglia is infuriating. How can she see Hillary so clearly and yet avow to vote for her to protect the court.
Paglia is an odd person.

Indeed, she is. Considering the fact she’s an avowed Lesbian, you have to wonder why she’s worried about abortion in the first place.
Another Hillary “Puff Piece” /sarc
Rush was playing a clip yesterday from Hillary on some entertainment show. This interview took place a day before the tearful talk in New Hampshire. Hillary was talking about how she has emotions too, blah, blah, blah. I thought the tears were genuine at the time. I thought she was crying for herself not the country though. I guess I should have known that nothing is genuine with the Clintons.
True...but the good news is that she doesn’t see Hillary “electable”.
At least someone has told the truth about her.
On the other hand, Harry Reid, the Senate majority leader, is hardly the face of a dynamic, authentically contemporary Democratic party. What a weird, reptilian ghoul that guy is. Even his sexless, affectless voice on the radio gives me the creeps. When will Reid get the boot?
Yeah but at the end she says she will still vote for her. Barf!
She will do whatever it takes to win the Dem nomination and November general.
For the same reason most of us will trot out to vote for whoever the GOP nominee is - we're afraid and we don't know what to do.
Hillary did what she had to do: cry!
It worked - short term.
Long term - quicksand!
It is an interesting fact that there is a strong concordance between gay right activism and pro-abortion activism.
Next time you see photos of a gay rights (or abortion rights) demonstrators, check out the mixing of signs.
It would be interesting to speculate about why that is.
Weird ghoul. That is a great description for the Dems, especially if you look into the meaning of the word ghoul.
Some of the first definitions from using google:
Demonic or parasitic entity that feeds upon human remains.No, consider the enthusiasm they have for embryonic stem cells from abortions and try to find a better word for them than ghouls.A desert monster that devours human flesh.
Evil spirit or monster that robs graves and feeds off of the flesh of the dead.
graverobber: someone who takes bodies from graves and sells them for anatomical dissection
Paglia deserved a chapter of her own in Roger Kimball’s book:
“Lives of the Mind: The Use and Abuse of Intelligence from Hegel to Wodehouse”. (Of course the title would have to have been changed “...to Paglia”!)
I really wish FR had an "oops, let me edit that" feature.
Not the most photogenic, not the most popular, not the most experienced, not the most intelligent (gee, some of the most intelligent people on earth should never be allowed in the same room with the most dangerous cocktail known to man, i.e. almost total power and nearly unlimited resources), not the most wealthy, etc. ...BUT the best fitted for the job... should be considered. THAT in itself narrows the field outright and will focus the process better than anything else.
