Hillary Clinton has one question for Melania Trump—as Donald Trump faces investigations and possible criminal charges: “How’s your summer going?” And for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, who wants to take aim at marriage equality following the court’s demolition of Roe v. Wade: “Don’t you want to retire?” In a candid, barnstorming appearance on Andy Cohen’s Bravo chat show Watch What Happens Live alongside daughter Chelsea Clinton (who sits on the board of IAC, The Daily Beast’s parent company) to promote their new TV show, Gutsy, the former secretary of state held nothing back, in talking about the “captive...

Hillary Clinton "The elections two weeks from today are our chance to put a check on an administration that has undermined the rule of law, brought corruption into the Oval Office, attacked immigrants, and vilified journalists."

Clinton supporters at Georgetown University struggled to name a single accomplishment that qualifies Hillary Clinton to become President. This week, Fox News released a poll indicating the majority of Americans view Hillary Clinton as a positive role model. Campus Reform wanted to see if this same sentiment rang true on college campuses, and if young voters could point to a major accomplishment that indicated Secretary Clinton makes for a good role model.

Donald Trump's remarks about Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly are offensive, but the rest of the Republican field is equally offensive, Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Rodham Clinton said Monday. "What Donald Trump said about Megyn Kelly is outrageous, but what the rest of the Republicans are saying about all women is also outrageous," Clinton said. "They brag about slashing health-care funding, they say they would force women who have been raped to carry their rapist's child," and fail to put forward proposals that would help women earn equal pay.

Geraldine Ferraro steps down from Hillary Clinton's Finance Committee.

NEW YORK (CBS) ― Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton hinted at the possibility of a democratic "dream ticket" with Sen. Barack Obama. Speaking on the Early Show on CBS, Clinton said "that may be where this is headed, but we have to decide who is on the top of the ticket." Clinton said the race between her and Obama remains "incredibly close," with just "smidgens of difference" between them. Clinton's remarks after her campaign won two big states yesterday: Ohio and Texas. She also won Rhode Island. The wins enabled her campaign to break Obama's 12-state winning streak and pick up...

Imagine you are running Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign. You start with some great advantages: a smart and knowledgeable candidate, twice elected by the voters of the nation's third-biggest state. She wears one of the most famous names in American politics: the most popular name among Democrats. She is a prodigious fundraiser, works hard and the very idea of her candidacy inspires large numbers of women voters. On the other hand, your candidate is also one of the most polarizing figures in American life. She is a dreadful speaker: boring, grating, often condescending. The left wing of her own party despises...

Clinton reaches out to Americans online WASHINGTON - FDR had his fireside chats. Richard Nixon held conversational exchanges with small groups in his 1968 campaign. Now Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton is telling Americans, "let's chat" _ just you, me and an intimate group of 300 million or so Americans. yes no yes no yes no Clinton's effort to launch her campaign as a "conversation" has a political pedigree that extends well beyond the "listening tour" from her 2000 Senate campaign or the "conversations on health care" that she held during her unsuccessful health care reform effort of 1993. Her husband,...

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton views Barack Obama as her biggest obstacle to nomination, the NEW YORK TIMES is planning to report on Wednesday, but Clinton believes the threat of his candidacy will diminish as voters learn how inexperienced he is in government and foreign affairs! MORE Editors have placed a story filed by reporter Adam Nagourney in Page One lead positions, newsroom sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT. Clinton has engaged in a series of nearly nonstop political consultations since Election Day, in what her advisers say are preparations for, in all likelihood, announcing her interest in running for president.

THE first vote is still more than a year away, but the campaign to replace President George W Bush in the White House is already throwing up surprises. Unfortunately for Senator Hillary Clinton, long the front-runner in the Democratic drive to retake the presidency, most of them are coming at her expense. A brace of Christmas opinion polls has left Clinton with a political hangover after a year that had appeared to cement her status as the Democrats’ best-organised, best-financed and best-connected contender for her party’s presidential nomination. Despite winning re-election to the US Senate by a handsome margin in...

ALBANY, N.Y. — Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton said Monday that President Bush's chief political strategist Karl Rove "spends a lot of time obsessing about me." The former first lady and potential presidential contender was reacting during a radio interview to a new book quoting Karl Rove as saying she will be the 2008 Democratic nominee for president, "He spends more time thinking about my political future than I do," Clinton said, noting that Rove and other White House aides have met regularly with her possible opponents in November's 2006 Senate race. The junior Senator from New York said she believed...

It is time some Americans get off their blather and get real. Every day we here ad nauseam coming from the far left. Instead I am personally calling it for what it is, hate speech. Little regard is shown for America's safety when the far left uses inflammatory words to attack the president of the United States. This is not healthy political discourse that we are hearing. The radical ridiculous rhetoric has got to stop for the good of all America. Where is the American spirit to overcome the real problem called Islamic radical terrorism? It is now more than...

Who is really happy about Edward Klein's new book "The Truth About Hillary"? If you believe the big media, it's the "right wing" and websites like NewsMax.com. But we hear the book may also be well received among some Democrats, a high-ranking party insider in Washington tells NewsMax. Could these ranking Democrats include Teddy Kennedy, John Kerry, Al Gore and Howard Dean? As NewsMax's Insider Report has revealed before, these four liberal Democrats - the so-called "Gang of Four" -- detest Hillary Clinton and have pledged to stop her no matter what from getting the Democratic nomination. Each member of...

Democrats are demanding that White House adviser Karl Rove immediately retract and apologize for comments that liberals responded to the Sept. 11 terrorist strikes by wanting to ``prepare indictments and offer therapy and understanding for our attackers.'' ``The one thing New York has had since Sept. 11 is unity,'' said Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y. ``To inject politics into this and to defame a large number of people'' is outrageous, he said. ``It's not what New York and America is all about.'' Rove, Bush's chief political adviser, said in a speech Wednesday that ``liberals saw the savagery of the 9/11 attacks...

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - The majority of New York voters said Hillary Rodham Clinton deserves to be re-elected to the Senate next year, but want her to pledge to serve a full, six-year term if she runs, a statewide poll reported Thursday. The Democratic former first lady made such a pledge in 2000 when she ran for the Senate. Clinton, leading in the polls for the 2008 Democratic presidential nomination, has yet to offer such a pledge this time around. Sixty percent of New York voters surveyed by the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute said she should pledge to serve a...

(CNSNews.com) - With many Americans certain that former first lady and current New York Democratic Sen. Hillary Clinton will run for president in 2008, they point to what appears to be a concerted effort to move her toward the political middle on one of the nation's most contentious issues -- abortion. It's a strategy that appears to come right out of the political playbook of the senator's husband, former President Bill Clinton, who managed to veto a partial birth abortion ban twice -- in 1996 and 1997 -- while declaring famously during the 1996 presidential campaign against Republican candidate Bob...
