For those of you that were not paying attention, Hillary Clinton, who now occupies the Senate seat once held by Roscoe Conklin, announced that she will be willing to run for president. Whoopdie frickin doo. Everyone with a brain much larger than a pin has known since 1992 (or earlier) that she would run.
But running and winning are two different things. Clinton is a known quantity. With six years as a US Senator and her previous experience in designing the most absurd healthcare plan ever and then multiple years in losing documents, falsifying records, and making questionable commodity trades - she seems like the perfect candidate. The picture by the way is from a friend (not of Hillary's). My suspicion is she will be every bit as successful as Massachusetts Senior Driver.
That does not mean I have found a candidate that I would even consider. Most on both sides are either too green or absurd or simply so filled with wrong headed ideas that they should never be president. I think the American people are in the same dilemma on all sides of the aisle. There is a growing skepticism about either of the parties. Neither side has much of substance to offer but soundbites. Unfortunately, a lot of the candidates, including Hillary, want to package themselves for something they are not. I think the people will discover those frauds rather quickly. Hope springs eternal in a politician's breast and now is the time that begins to happen.
