Hillary Clinton vowed to forge ahead in her White House bid, conceding defeat to Democratic rival Sen. Bernie Sanders in the New Hampshire primary – but declaring "it's not whether you get knocked down, it's whether you get back up." In an energetic speech to supporters, the former Secretary of State confessed "I still love New Hampshire and I always will." Clinton vowed to "work harder than anyone" to push an agenda that will work to change campaign financing, "build and grow the economy," and "break down those barriers." "My family and my faith taught me a simple credo: do...

WASHINGTON -- There always has been something delusional about the Clintons' project to make Hillary this country's next commander in chief. Start with the balderdash so frequently exuded through the media that she is, along with her husband, a "rock star." Well, they left the White House like rock stars. They trashed the place. Yet Hillary, a physically unprepossessing lady on the far side of middle age, is not a rock star. Agreed, when she and her bodyguards enter a room, she turns a lot of heads, but so does a roadside automobile accident or the clumsy waitress who just...

ELMIRA, N.Y. -- As "New York, New York" so famously promises, if you can make it there you can make it anywhere. Hillary Rodham Clinton may soon put those lyrics to a presidential test. With little question that she will win re-election to the Senate this fall, a larger question looms: If Clinton turned numbers of skeptical and sometimes openly hostile upstate New Yorkers significantly in her favor, could she pull off the same thing nationally in a 2008 run for the White House? Seven years ago, when she began her Senate campaign, many residents of this hard-pressed Finger Lakes...

Since 1993, when she tried to become the tzarina of government-sponsored health care, I have suspected that Hillary Clinton wanted to become the President of the United States. Since the mid-1990s — when one of her best friends, Judith Hope, moved from Little Rock to New York, and then “suddenly” became the chairman of the NY Democratic Party — I was confident that the fix was in. Since 1999, when she bilked the taxpayers in a phony “listening tour” scam to launch her campaign, there was no doubt in my mind that Mrs. Clinton was going to use a run...

"I take responsibility for my vote, and I, along with a majority of Americans, expect the president and his administration to take responsibility for the false assurances, faulty evidence and mismanagement of the war," So spake Hillary Clinton looking older, but not sounding wiser. Having to appeal to her eroding far left liberal base, she is once again showing her true colors, which like a chameleon change as the seasons change. Perhaps we need to remember what really happened and forget the Clinton version of history. On September 12th, 2001, the President of the United States, George W. Bush spoke to...
