Brodner's Cartoon du Jour: Hillary Clinton
Hillary we hardly knew ye. While she was focusing on the old game, I think the game changed. She and Bill had an idea this campaign was going to be an extension of the previous ones. And events kept showing her that it was another animal, one she, nor we, had ever seen before and all pundits and insiders got consistently wrong. She was wrong on running an incumbent-style campaign. She was wrong on being able to paper-over her war vote. She was wrong on whether political pandering would look like, well, pandering. And wrong on a "Southern Strategy." We are watching a new politics occurring, and so is she...from a distance.

She was the wrong woman to become the first woman U.S. president. Not because I say so but because there are special rules for breaking such barriers.
Jackie Robinson was no average Black athlete. He was spotless. Big Smile, loved White people, went to church, etc., etc.
He was not vetted as "adequate" because "adequate" would hardly have been good enough for those circumstances. He was vetted as exemplary. Which allowed white people to warm up to him and to racially integrated sports in a slower and less challenging way.
Hillary is no Jackie Robinson.
Yes, she is smart. Yes, she often says the right things to impress the 51% of the voters needed to insure her election.
But she is a brand, not a Senator and certainly not a "Commander and Chief".
She got where she is by selling her soul for a shot at glory. Such a feministo. . . . While Bill is getting A+ grades from Jennifer Flowers for his 'cunning linguistics', and as he rolls his own {intern-flavored} Cuban Cigars, she is all in for the long haul.
She is all ego and no self-respect. Not my type of President.
Looking at the numbers, it seems like the reports of her death are greatly exaggerated.
