More on Hillary
A week ago, I wrote a column in the Democrat-Gazette suggesting that the time is right for Senator Hillary Clinton to seek the presidency. My thinking was that she possesses the necessary name recognition, is a proven fundraiser, and has the free services of her husband, the Political Elvis, former President Bill Clinton.
Now, everybody will not agree with me on this, and that is just one of the things that makes America. I am, however, darned sure that, if this great nation can survive eight years of George W. Bush, we can make it through just about anything. There is a Texas tycoon pushing the newest political group called, “Stop Her Now.” Isn’t this a wonderful country?
Ask yourself this. Exactly what makes Mrs. Clinton’s politics any worse than most of the other potential candidates? The stark fact is that, on military matters, she may be a real hawk and exactly what the country needs.
After the radical lunatic attacks launched during the Clinton presidency, she and her spouse are now just about immune from the kind of nutty character assassination we endured for most of the 90’s. This does not mean that candidate Clinton gets a free pass. It means that she gets a fair hearing.
