Hillary Clinton is astonishing because she has no notable achievements to her name; no memorable insights, nothing said or done that will be remembered. Nevertheless, she has received so much media coverage in the past two decades she is famous for being famous. Had she achieved that kind of fame in another walk of life it would end there. In politics it was inevitable that she finally turn into a curiosity. How will that play out in 2016? I have no idea, while Wesley Pruden does offer an interesting prediction:
One of lifes great mysteries is why a single scandal often brings down a government official, while the voting public usually ignores a long list of evil doings. Hillary Clinton is a classic example. Not one of her missteps ever damaged her as she advanced from crooked lawyer, to liar, to CEO in charge of bimbo eruptions, to senator, to secretary of state. Prudens conga line of skeletons suggests that the sheer number of her sins will break the pattern in 2016. Thats why I pray Clinton gets the nomination. She will be a pushover in the general election. The woman is so target-rich her image could replace the bulls-eye.
Those who want Clinton defeated better forget it. Democrats will give her a pass on everything in the primaries. There is one way she might be denied. Young voters are not wrapped up in the Clinton myth. My gut instinct tells me that younger Americans see her as an aging movie star from a forgotten era deluding herself like Norma Desmond:
Finally, young adults neither like nor dislike Hillary Clinton because they havent lived through her all of her lies, but they must be wondering why she is still playing to the cameras?
Every night's going to be Halloween night for Hillary. The skeletons in her closet are signing up now for the conga line. They're impatient to put on their dancing shoes for the 2016 presidential campaign. Like it or not, it's just around the corner.
XXXXX
That conga line of skeletons is a long one, and they're eager to do the two-step.
