"She had expected to be welcomed to lead the charge against the Republicans in the general election. Her run has become one, of her trying to convince voters that she is not unsuitable for the position."

I've gotten banned from posting in

the History of Feminism group for criticizing Hillary. I guess that group is now an extension of the Hillary Clinton group.

I'm disgusted with the sexism of some of the HRC supporters: the idea of "our woman, right or wrong".

Hillary and the handwriting on the wall:

מנא, מנא, תקל, ופרסין

Daniel reads the words, MENE, MENE, TEKEL, PARSIN, and interprets them for the king: MENE, God has numbered the days of your kingdom and brought it to an end; TEKEL, you have been weighed and found wanting; and PERES, the kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians.

This phrase has been echoing in my mind lately and I find it sad that Hillary doesn't realize the import of her actions and statements:

Her time is over.
She has failed the vetting.
The Democratic Party is being divided by her.

I'm tired of being bombarded with Clintonian Exceptionalism...

the idea that Bill and Hillary Clinton are "'exceptional' (i.e., unusual or extraordinary) in some way and thus [do] not need to conform to normal rules or principles." --Wikipedia

This has been going on since 1991 and it was old then and is still old. It is how they skate by on the far side through controversy after controversy while Hillary proclaims "We are not Denmark".

A Song for Hillary:

"...
Pick me up on your way down
When you're blue and all alone
When the glamor starts to bore you
Come on back where you belong

You may be their pride and joy
But they'll find another toy
And they'll take away your crown
Pick me up on your way down

Yes, they'll take away your crown
Pick me up on your way down"

CV question: Why did Hillary Clinton resign as Secretary of State? ...

What work has she been doing since then? (speaking only or what)?
