TORONTO The snow is falling lightly.
My thoughts are racing darkly.
Im feeling something foreign, something Ive never felt before. It takes me a moment to identify it.
Im feeling sorry for the Clintons.
In the 27 years Ive covered Bill and Hillary, Ive experienced a range of emotions. Theyve dazzled me and theyve disgusted me.
But now theyre mystifying me.
Im looking around Scotiabank Arena, the home of the Toronto Maple Leafs, and its a depressing sight. Its two-for-the-price-of-one in half the arena. The hockey rink is half curtained off, but even with that, organizers are scrambling at the last minute to cordon off more sections behind thick black curtains, they say due to a lack of sales. I paid $177 weeks in advance. (I passed on the pricey meet-and-greet option.) On the day of the event, some unsold tickets are slashed to single digits.
I get reassigned to another section as the Clintons audience space shrinks. But even with all the herding, Im still looking at large swaths of empty seats and I cringe at the thought that the Clintons will look out and see that, too. It was only four years ago, after all, that Canadians were clamoring to buy tickets to see the woman who seemed headed for history.
Its a sad contrast with the sold-out boffo book tour of Michelle Obama, whos getting a lot more personal for the premium prices. But introspection has never been within the Clintons range.

How utterly laughable. A couple paragraphs earlier she was ripping the Clintons for THEIR insatiable greed. Then she conflates a booming economy and record low unemployment with greed which it most assuredly is not. But the supreme irony here is that her old boyfriend (who she lost to KZJ) starred in the original movie about Wall Street greed.
The Clintons have become just as irrelevant as you Maureen.
The full on Communists are in the process of taking over your party and will someday be the cause of another civil war.
The amazing thing about this article is that it is posted in WRALTV’s opinion section. WRALTV is a very liberal voice in the Triangle area of NC - a very liberal part of NC.
While MD says negative things about our wonderful President, she at LEAST focuses on the pitiful state of the Clintoons and their search for relevance. A wonder to behold.
In 15 years she’ll look like Ma Kettle. (Marjorie Main).
You’re too kind. In another fifteen years she’ll look like Percy Kilbride.
Can someone explain to me, the Catherine Zeta Jones, references, with these articles.
Mood dated Michael Douglass until he met czj. Then she turned very bitter for some reason... thus the pics.
They have nothing left to sell.
Prison Orange will be a color at least hillary will be seeing alot of soon
That's what sycophants do.
Hate to tell ya, Mo, but Arkancide isn’t just a piece of Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy kook theory after all.
Sympathy for the Devil(s).
Lol By then she’ll probably want to have a change change so Percy will be perfect.
that photo sure takes the air out of the room real fast.
