Hillary without tears
Why it's time to close the book on the Clintons -- and herald the Obamas! Plus: Iran war hawks, Russian drag queens and the genius of Zeppelin.
By Camille Paglia [2008-01-10]

  • Karl Rove is kinder to Hillary

    Wow, even the Democratic party enemy Karl Rove is kinder to Hillary then Camille:

    Can it be that he realizes that the kind of personal Hillary bashing that CP indulges in is self-defeating for the Republicans.

    It may also be self-defeating for Obama lovers.

    BTW, I am old enough and have been through enough to know that the honeymoon will eventually be over. I like Obama - he is fresh and idealistic. Give him more years in national politics and he will be as tired and wrinkled and compromised as Hillary.

    I want just a couple of things from the next President - getting out of Iraq - catch and kill bin Laden - Health care for all citizens - serious attention paid to our environment - restoration of constitutional government.

    I don't care if the person is cynical, Machiavellian, or egotistical. I am all those things so I don't mind them.

    I don't care if we have 4 more years of bipartisan rancor and hateful spewing from the right wing. I can successfully ignore that for 4 years.

    I think CP is more concerned with the "narative" than with our actual country.

    For all her talk of her love for "the people" - well it comes across as condescending.
