this does not seem like a move of a future presidential contender. if she wanted to bolster her national credibility, the move is to build her thin resume, not cut it off.
my guess is that one of two things happened: some big scandal is about to break, or she's so exhausted from being under the microscope that she's finally cracked.
if the rumors about the house-for-play story is true, that ain't good. especially when ted stevens got the federal shoe up his ass for accepting some weird wooden statues.
but let's face it - she's a dim bulb who also happens to be incredibly narcissistic. i think all the negative press actually hurts her, and she gets slammed every time she opens her mouth because every time she opens her mouth, something more ludicrously asinine comes out. she could just be fried.
either way, i hope she's done because our country needs a strong two-party system with thinking people at the helm of both ships. she represents the weakest opponent possible for the left--the scared ignoramus sector. it's hard to get better when you're playing against a pee-wee team. the adults need to take over the GOP, wherever they may be.
